    "... they taught him some secrets."

    Yeah, like be Pee Wee Herman.

    Did you watch Pee Wee's Playhouse? The guy was making content for the internet generation before the internet generation existed.

    We're talking Pee Wee Herman, and the internet. Without any flack's help, he would have had 40,000 followers in 48-72 hours. I hope he's not overpaying them.

    When they went over to the salad bar, the first thought is "certainly they went through the trouble of bringing a salad bar on stage for some sort of comedic effect, but no. Pee Wee proceeded to pile his plate with vegetables, while each time Jay would explain why he doesn't like lettuce, chick peas, tomatoes etc. The bit was about as boring -- as a goddamn salad bar itself!

    And then Pee Wee dumped some sliced potatoes into a deep fryer to make french fries for some random reason and suddenly the bit was over. If that's the type of bits they're going to do, I seriously question the longevity of this show. It can't possibly last another two weeks.

    Note to everyone, ever: I'd like to never see Paul Reubens nee' Pee Wee Herman looks like a pedophile in a way only those who are actually pedophiles can appreciate again.

    Thank you.

    @Spirit Fingers: I thought the Tim Burton movie was pleasantly distracting, but, now that you mention it, I can't say I laughed. (He was good in Buffy).

    @Colander: I make it a point not to watch Tim Burton movies, but if you're talking about the menagerie of strange that was the movie about the missing bike, then I concur. He wasn't bad in Buffy, mostly because he had like 4 lines, and really, how bad can you be when Luke Perry's already in a movie?

    Pee Wee with wrinkles just doesn't work for me. The funniest part of the Franklin bit was the women in the black salon.

    And somehow I caught those to bits of the show during the commercials for esorleM.

    Wow, Marina Franklin was painful to watch.
    WTF have these people been doing all summer? Did they prepare for this show at all?

    Now, Pee-wee's Playhouse on primetime? There's something I would watch.

    I was actually excited about seeing Pee Wee again, after such a long absence. It was painful to watch, from his spray-on hair to the sad salad bar bit. A little routine by himself would have been better- just to see Paul Reubens slimmed down and back in the costume was entertaining enough in itself.

    Did anybody else keep waiting for Jay to utter a Word of the Day?

    Whoa, that's some serious burying of the lede with that NCIS statistic at the end. Where are these people coming from? Do they only get one channel on their television? Watch a movie instead, people.
