"Paul bravely and privately fought cancer for years with his trademark tenacity and wit. A gifted and prolific talent, he will forever live in the comedy pantheon and in our hearts as a treasured friend and man of remarkable character and generosity of spirit."

Reubens starred in the the 1985 film "Pee-wee's Big Adventure"; on the television show "Pee-wee's Playhouse," which ran from 1986 to 1990; and in the 1988 film sequel "Big Top Pee-wee." He performed as a voice actor on several other TV shows. Reubens was also a stand-up comedian.

Me too. Peewee’s Playhouse after a night on the town in the eighties was entertaining. RIP.

“Reubens later claimed he was an erotica collector - and had a stash films and magazines, as well as a sizable collection of mostly homosexual vintage erotica.”

Too bad he died.

Wasn’t this guy charged as a pedophile some years back?

Why, yes, yes he was.

In 2004, Reubens pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of possessing obscene material in Los Angeles. He was sentenced to three years of probation.

gosh, it’s interesting that you told me to ‘get away from me scum’ and now keep posting to me. Why is that? Your homosexual tendencies burning a hole in your pocket? Why don’t YOU move on.
