The Creation and Rise of Pee-wee Herman
During an improvisational exercise, Reubens created Pee-wee Herman, a man who wanted to be a comic but was so inept at telling jokes that the audience knew he wouldn’t make it. He failed to make the cut on the TV series “Saturday Night Live”, and thus decided to borrow money, creating his own “The Pee-wee Herman Show”. Both character and show became mainstream, and quickly attracted a large fan club, despite initial reviews citing him as bizarre. His popularity grew nonetheless, and he would make several appearances in character in “Late Night with David Letterman”.
In 1985, a film based on his character was created in which Pee-wee would go on a nationwide adventure in search of his stolen bicycle; the film received mixed reviews but was successful at the box office, eventually developing into a cult film. He was subsequently signed to create a children’s series entitled “Pee-wee’s Playhouse”, which would go on to gather a huge number of fans, both children and adults. He stayed with the show for five seasons, before deciding to take a sabbatical, as he was getting burned out from playing the character virtually full time.
The Retreat and Return
In 1991, Paul was arrested for masturbating during a film at an adult movie theatre; while he had been arrested previously, this arrest was widely covered, and support for Pee-wee was removed from television and toy stores. For many years, he would not make appearances, give interviews, or appear in talk shows. He only returned in the 1990s to work as a voice actor, before appearing in projects not connected with the Pee-Wee character. He also started doing interviews as himself, and his performance in the film “Blow” playing a hairdresser turned drug dealer, received a lot of praise.
In 2002, he was arrested once more as the police discovered that he had over 70,000 items of kitsch memorabilia, with some believing that he possessed child pornography. An investigation declared that no felony had been committed, but Paul pleaded to a lesser charge, and defended his actions by saying that he had always been a collector of erotica. However, he didn’t really check each material of the collections he bought out. Around the same time he was caring for his father, who died of cancer in 2004, after which he returned to appearing in films and television projects. Most recently, there are hints that there may be more Pee-wee productions in the offing.
Personal Life
It is known that Reubens was married to Chandi Heffner, though no details have been shared about their relationship. The marriage eventually ended in divorce, and he was later often seen in public with actress Debi Mazar. There was a rumor that they became engaged in the 1990s, but instead of denying the news, they decided to play along. There are also rumors about his sexuality, and that he is gay, based on how he portrayed Pee-wee as a gay character in “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday”. His erotica collection also contained homosexual erotica, though his personal declaration on his sexuality has never eventuated.

Quotes

1 | The public may think I’m weird. They may think I’m crazy or anything that anyone wants to think about me. That’s all fine. As long as one of the things you’re not thinking about me is that I’m a pedophile. Because that’s not true. |
2 | I’ve always felt like a kid, and I still feel like a kid, and I’ve never had any problem tapping into my childhood, and my kid side. |
3 | But I don’t know. Pee-wee just kind of popped out one day, pretty much fully fleshed-out and fully formed. |
4 | I probably have become more infamous from two misdemeanors than probably anyone I could think of. |
5 | I was Pee-wee Herman for so many years that it wasn’t really a question that I didn’t want to do other things. |
6 | I would love to be in Kansas. |
7 | The public already knows about me more than I ever wanted it to know. |
8 | I think my entire career path was determined for me when I was 6 years old, watching reruns of ‘I Love Lucy’ on TV and thinking about making people laugh. |
9 | Look at me, I’m getting defensive about something that happened so many years ago, somebody said. I’ll have to find out who that was and if he’s still alive. |
10 | The moment that I realized my name was going to be said in the same sentence as children and sex, that’s really intense. That’s something I knew from that very moment, whatever happens past that point, something’s out there in the air that is really bad. |
11 | Had we gone to trial, we had ready an expert from the Masters and Johnson Institute who was going to testify that in 30 years of research on masturbation the institute had never found one person who masturbated with his or her non-dominant hand. I’m right-handed, and the police report said I was jerking off with my left hand. That would have been the end of the case right there, proof it couldn’t have been me. |
12 | Amazingly, by way of a mutual friend of his son Christian, I learned that even Marlon Brando thought Pee-wee was a real person! He couldn’t believe I was an actor who had created that persona-which is maybe the highest benediction. |
13 | I tried to be responsible in teaching kids things I thought were good lessons, all in the context of,’it’s O.K. to be wild and have a good time.’ |
