November 2007 Sweeps – Day 21: It’s Pee Wee Time!
Paul Reubens Visits Pushing Daisies‘ Playhouse
Tonight’s “Smell of Success” installment of ABC’s whimsical Pushing Daisies is a very special episode indeed. That’s because Paul Reubens of Pee Wee’s Playhouse fame is set to guest star.
He plays one Oscar Vibenius, who’s a colleague of murder victim Napoleon LeNez, a famous scent expert snuffed by an exploding scratch ‘n’ sniff book. The plot alone is enough to make this one a Must See, but Reubens’ presence elevates it to a Better Not Miss, as well.
