Mondo-Digital.com is reporting that Pee-wee Herman is coming to play in
Pee-wee's Playhouse this year, just in time for the holidays. They show in their "Updates" section a "
Pee-wee's Playhouse Vol. 1 and 2" listing, coming from Image Entertainment and set for November 9th.
A word of caution from us, though. We've been in touch with Image recently about other titles, such as
The New Twilight Zone, and they tell us that the dates shown at Mondo are very tentative, and extremely prone to change. While we didn't discuss
Pee-wee's Playhouse with our sources at Image, it's probably better for our readers to not get your heart set on any particular date prior to an official announcement. It will probably save you on some heartburn later!
Still, it's good to know that Pee-wee, aka Paul Reubens, is on their minds for a DVD release. It's amazing to recall some of the names involved with this show, including the late Phil Hartman and even Laurence Fishburne! We'll get more information to you about all of this, just as soon as Image firms up their plans. Our thanks to Brandon Gantt
for letting us know about this.
