C’mon Fwank

My childhood is slowly coming back together, piece by piece.  This week, Pee-Wee Herman announced his return to the world, triumphantly proclaiming that he’ll be appearing in a series of live shows called “The Pee-Wee Herman Show.”  For those not in the know, he had a show by the same title in the 80s that ultimately lead to the crazily popular Pee-Wee’s Playhouse.

This is the first time the world has seen Pee-Wee since his appearance as a presenter on the 2007 Spike TV Guy’s Choice Awards, where he was more than welcomed by fans who hadn’t seen him since all that crap went down over 10 years prior.

Pee-Wee reappeared seemingly out of nowhere this past week on the Jay Leno Show and has been making a series of appearances in person and on the internet with sites like Twitter and Facebook.  I’m freakin’ stoked.  PEE-WEE HERMAN IS MY FACEBOOK FRIEND.  WHAT!

For being close to 60 years old he still pulls that crap off pretty darn well.  I’m interested in seeing how his new shows are going to work out, what they’re going to lead to and who’s playing all the characters now that they’ve all aged (or actually become legitimately successful) as well.  Here’s the video of P-Dub on Leno.
