There are Christmas specials, and then there’s Pee Wee Herman’s 1988 Christmas Special. Here’s the intro to that star-studded opus, along with a very special performance of “The Little Drummer Boy” performed by Grace Jones in a form-fitting plastic bustier. Love those dancing Marines!

Since 2000, Scrubbles.net has been the online stomping grounds for Phoenix, AZ designer Matt Hinrichs. I'm a curious and curmudgeonly type who gets off on obscure and unsung pop culture of yore. Or something like that.

I just saw a big section of that Pee-Wee special last night on the Betamax Christmas site. If you haven’t seen it yet, I’m sure you’ll go nuts for it… It recreates flipping the TV dial around Christmastime, circa 1980-something. You even have to fiddle with the TV attena!

That’s a neat site, Greg. Thanks!
