So...did PeeWee LIVE in the playhouse?

[Funky]

The wife and I decided to watch a little PeeWee this morning and we were wondering, does he actually live in the playhouse or was it just a very expensive clubhouse of sorts? I always thought he lived elsewhere and just came here to play, as he does seem to leave every day and, well, it is called a playhouse after all. My wife seems to think he lives there as he has a fully stocked kitchen, has pets, a bed, bathroom and receives his mail there.
Strange but I can't find a definitive answer on the web.
So I'm asking the RPF as it seems to be more reliable than Google sometimes. DOES PeeWee live in the playhouse or not?

I always thought he lived elsewhere and had all that stuff in case he wanted to spend the night or have a sleep over. Mind you I was a kid when this was on but it always made sense to me that this was a hangout and he might have lived down the road.

As a kid I assumed he lived in the house from the movie (the one with all the stuff in the yard) and that the playhouse was just that... a playhouse/clubhouse.

This is where he actually lives... in my mind

Brad, it was 7:30 in the morning! You know I don't drink Jack till after 10am :rolleyes

I would venture to say he lived there. Reba the Mail Lady played by Law and Order's S. Epatha Merkerson would have not delivered to the playhouse.

Yep. :thumbsup

Seems to be straightforward.

Also I always gathered that in the movie, that was him in the "real" world.

The stuff at the playhouse was mostly make-believe.

If he lived in the clubhouse, then why did he leave on his scooter at the end of every episode?

confused:confused

O.K. now I'm wondering how that same question applies to Mr. Rogers.

It was a fake house that they built in a TV studio. :sleep

What? :rolleyes

He was riding to the movie theater.

Actually, PeeWee lived in a padded room, and the playhouse and the talking chair and other characters were all in his head.

I must concur.

Wow there is a reference to a tv show half the members aren't' old enough to know about :lol

 

[killer3k]

No he did NOT live in the playhouse.
There was an episode that was all about him having a SLEEPOVER at the playhouse, which would indicate that he lived somewhere else. Also, at the end of each episode, he left on his scooter.

 

[Michael Bergeron]

Agree with killer3k. Didn't live in the playhouse.

I never really connected that the "2 worlds" might in fact be one. Clearly there were no crossover characters between the two, but I just have a hard time picturing Amazing Larry or Large Marge conceivably showing up at the Playhouse :confused

Or, for that matter, Conky or Randy showing up at Chuck's Bike-O-Rama!

I always assumed they were in the same world. The Playhouse gang were always imaginary in my personal canon while the Movie represented "reality":lol

Come to think of it, that opens up so many Cowboy Curtis/Morpheus jokes
