Well, back when I used to receive HBO, they ran a special called
the Pee Wee Herman show. Apparently Pee Wee Herman is sort of
a local show broadcast out of LA (I could be wrong here) that
is a spoof of all the old live kiddie shows (like Bozo, Sailor Bob,
Captain Kangaroo, Mr. Rogers etc). There are a lot of supporting characters
(one sort of a Fairy Godmother, one Postman, one sailor who acts
like Popeye, etc). It was pretty insane, and the guy who plays
Pee Wee does a good job as an obnoxious nerdy kid. As an aside,
he has appeared on other shows, including Mork and Mindy (the one
about Mindy's class reunion, and Mork goes back in time to see if
things would have been better for Mindy had she never met Mork;
Pee Wee played a really nerdy classmate of Mindy -- almost identically
the same character as Pee Wee Herman).

I would probably go see him, just for jollies, if it wasn't TOO
expensive.
