Last I heard he was in trouble, then never heard anything about it again.
Is he in jail?

He just was in a movie a short time ago. No, he's not still in jail. Wow, did you know that Pee Wee Herman doesn't go by that name. He's out there; and he is doing well from what I've seen on reviews.

Well sorry, I'm not just going to quote his whole filmography at you like some other posters do (I find that annoying and unnecessary).
Paul Reubens has actually been staying fairly busy lately with TV gigs and voiceovers. He's going to have a part in the Reno! 911 movie which is being filmed right now. He's also going to have a part (however small) in a horror film directed by David Arquette which will feature Courteney Cox (David's wife).
You know they're going to air Pee Wee's Playhouse on the Cartoon network?? I was always freaked out by him after the "movie house" incident. And then when he was caught with child pornography I knew there was just no hope for him.

Paul Reubens is still acting and has parts in a few upcoming movies. Here is what I found about his most famous character-the following is a direct quote from the website listed below: "The image of Pee-Wee was broken on July 26, 1991. On his summer vacation, Reubens was visiting his parents in Sarasota and sought escape from boredom by catching a showing of the X-rated film, Nurse Nancy. He fell victim to a police sting operation and was arrested for sex charges when detectives allegedly saw him playing with his private parts. He was released on $219 bail and nobody realized what had happened until somebody recognized him beneath his long hair and goatee. The media went berserk: 'Kids show star arrested for indecent exposure'. Because of his behavior, CBS dropped the Playhouse and related merchandise was released from its shelves. He agreed to pay a $50 fine plus $85 in court costs to Sarasota County, and he produced a 30 second public service message for the Partnership For Drug-Free America commercial. As part of the deal, the county sealed all legal papers relating to the actor's arrest and didn't leave Reubens with a criminal record. The scandal marked the virtual death of Pee-Wee Herman. "
According to this same website he got into some more trouble later but you will have to go read it yourself.

Paul Reubens is a true talent who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was crucified and expelled for doing something that was of no harm to anyone else. And NO he did not molest children. Other actors have done much worse and were applauded for it (think back to Hugh Grant & the prostitute).
I was happy to hear that Adult Swim will be re-running Pee Wee's Playhouse starting in July. It's about friggin' time!
Long Live Pee Wee!

Pee Wee Herman's Playhouse will be airing on Adult Swim on the Cartoon Network soon. He has a couple of movies in the works too. He was never in trouble for molesting children.

He tried to make a come back, I'm still trying to figure out how he got well know in the first place? I think he's suffering from toxic masturbation.
