Pee-wee Herman Pee-wee Herman is a comic fictional character created and portrayed by American comedian Paul Reubens. He is best known for his two television series and film series during the 1980s. The childlike Pee-wee Herman character developed as a stage act that quickly led to an HBO special in 1981. Due to negative media attention following a scandal in 1991, Reubens decided to shelve his alter ego during the 1990s, then gradually resurrected it during the following decade. Origin In the 1970s, Reubens joined the Los Angeles-based improvisational comedy team The Groundlings and remained a member for six years, working with Bob McClurg, John Paragon, Susan Barnes and Phil Hartman. In 1977, The Groundlings staged a performance in which its members created characters one might see in a comedy club. Sometime in 1979 Reubens debuted his character on the television show The Dating Game, appearing three times.[4][5] Character background and personality The Pee-wee Herman Show Pee-wee's Big Adventure
