IT was a good, innovative show. The new Captain Kangaroo.
While we've heard a lot about Paul Reuben's personal tragedies, I did contract work for him on that show and he was more tenacious then Network Standards and Practices.
You may not beleive that, but ne nixed cartoons because they had slight racial or relgious overtones.
He wanted to keep the show very G rated.
He genuninely wanted it to be a very cool kids show.
Let's face it folks, everyone has their professional face and their personal face.
His personal face, while not much different from the average male, got him into some trouble, but professionally he took what he did seriously.
He was a kids show star and he wanted that show squeeky clean.
No one every got into Mr. Rogers personal life, had we, we might wonder a little about him -- I'm not dissing him, I'm just saying what goes on behind closed doors sometimes offends some people or at least makes them wonder. And we never reach that point with him. No one is perfect. We just never got a look insid his doors to see if there was anything there we could take issue with!
No one gets into their minister's personal life, yet some of them live lives taht would make some relgious people shutter.
We are humans.
But the Paul Reuben's that I did work for was also a pro and riding high on a great success, that he blew personally.
That doesn't make his work invalid. I may taint it a little because of what we know, but the work stands alone as a work.
While I have issues with Cat Stevens after he became Muslim and approved of the call to murder the author who wrote a book on Islam, nonetheless I still like some of his songs that I always liked! But I do have issues and I won't buy his records anymore to support any of his lifesytle, but I sill like some of his songs when I hear them.

The folks at Cartoon Chane and Adult Swim must ahve gotten a good deal on the reruns and though it would fit in with their programing. Many of the Adutl Swim viewers probably wtahced it while they were growing up. Thank God I'm old enough to have had Bob Keeshan (Captain Kangaroo) and Fred Rodgers instead.

I wasn't a huge fan of the universal sequence, in spite of the indisputable fact that the unique, HBO particular of the Pee Wee Herman tutor became magnificent. The Groundlings, out in l. a. were in touch, with Phil Hartmann as Captain Carl and so on. Then all of it purely were given spooky.

I think the other responder is right: Adult Swim put it on becuase they think a lot of veiwers watched it growing up. I watched it with my kids while they were growing up. I thought it was funny then and watched it last night and still think its funny. If you don't like the other stuff on adult swim, you won't like PeeWee either.
