American Actor Paul Reubens most famously known as Pee-Wee Herman has sadly passed away at the age of 70 from Cancer. He had the diagnosis for six years but didn't reveal it. He began his acting career in the 1970's as an improvisational comedian and stage actor with the Groundlings comedy troupe in Los Angeles, California. However it was his role as Pee-Wee Herman where he hit mainstream success.
Reubens then eventually starred as Pee-Wee Herman in the hit 1980's TV series Pee-Wee's Playhouse, The Pee-Wee Herman Show, and the Pee-Wee's Big Adventure and Pee-Wee's Big Holiday films. He stopped playing as Pee-Wee back in 1991, when he was arrested for indecent exposure at an adult movie theater. He eventually returned to the role in 2010 with the revival of the Pee-Wee Herman Show.
The recent passing of Paul Reubens really hit home for me since I remember growing up as a kid in the 1980's watching Pee-Wee's Playhouse on Saturday Mornings on TV and even had the old wind-up toy which I also got of Steve Urkel from Family Matters a decade later. Pee-Wee's Big Adventure was a real blast to watch and very nostalgic where the chase scene in Hollywood was very reminiscent of the chase scene from Michael Jackson's music video for "Speed Demon" with the Claymation characters that were HUGELY popular at the time.
I also got around to watching Pee-Wee's Big Holiday on Netflix before he passed away with Joe Manganiello guest starring in it and it was just as good as Pee-Wee's Big Adventure decades before it. I just hope that Paul accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior before he passed away so that he can continue to bring joy and laughter to people in Heaven the same way he did for us as Pee-Wee Herman here on Earth. This man is a precious treasure that will be greatly missed. He was America's answer to the United Kingdom's Mr. Bean played by Rowan Atkinson.
