The Misfit's Playhouse is a cartoon created by the improv troop, DZA Players, as a parody of 'Pee Wee Herman's Playhouse,' a late 1980s variety show starring comedian Paul Reubens. This fun-filled animated series pays homage to the classic show and offers a modern twist.

The Misfit's Playhouse features all the same characters from the original show, in addition to some new faces. Fans of the original show will recognize Cowboy Curtis, Miss Yvonne, Jambi, and Pee Wee, while others may be introduced to characters such as the misfit robot, Bubble Puddles; the talking banana, Percival; and an alien, Blorgon. Each character brings their own unique personality and sense of humor to the playhouse, making for a riotous comedy.

The show features skits and songs similar to those seen on “Pee Wee’s Playhouse.” Audiences can expect to see games like “Scavenger Hunt” and “Chair Race”, goofy dialogue, singing, and dancing. Much of the comedy is tongue-in-cheek and relies on slapstick, audience participation, and word play. The DZA Players bring their own humor to the show, making it an engaging experience for all ages.

The Misfit's Playhouse offers a fresh take on the classic Pee Wee Herman aesthetic by incorporating a unique visual style and soundscape. The animation ranges from chunky pixel art to smooth cell-shaded scenes, and the playhouse’s music evokes a playful throwback vibe.

The show honors the legacy of Pee Wee Herman while still reinforcing its own distinct identity, making it one of the most imaginative and irreverent animated series available. With its off-beat humor and charming characters, The Misfit’s Playhouse provides a fun and lighthearted experience for viewers to enjoy. Rest in peace, Pee Wee Herman.
