Pee-wee's Playhouse

Pee-wee's Playhouse was a half-hour CBS USA TV Saturday morning "children's show" starring Pee-wee Herman (played by Paul Reubens) that aired from 1986 until 1991 and was enormously popular with both children and adults. The show returned in reruns from 1998 to 1999 on Fox Family Channel (now ABC Family). All 45 episodes (plus the Christmas Special) are now on DVD by Image Entertainment.

Times where Pee-wee wanted silence

There were, however, several times where Pee-wee demanded absolute quiet and silence, from both the characters, and perhaps the viewers watching the show.

• The first was in the episode "Love That Story" in which the gang was playing library, and Pee-wee was the librarian. Miss Yvonne played one of the persons reading/studying. When the Playhouse characters, minus Pee-wee and Miss Yvonne, were screaming after Miss Yvonne said the word "End", Pee-wee got so mad that he shouted "SILENCE!!" and made everyone fall quiet.
• The second time was in "Pee-wee Catches a Cold". Magic Screen said the word "out", which, as usual, caused everyone to scream. Pee-wee shouted, "STOP ALL THAT SCREAMING! CAN'T YOU PEOPLE HAVE A LITTLE CONSIDERATION?!" in which everyone fell silent. Miss Yvonne cringed in fear at the anger.
