I understand the entertainment industry is entirely profit driven, and CBS, having had enormous success with the original, saw the potential of another cash cow with a remake of Helter Skelter, but please... I can't begin to describe how much i disliked this remake. Having seen the original when it first aired, and 3 or 4 times afterward, and having read the book 3 times, i believe i have a pretty good handle on the story, and how i think it should be portrayed. And this was just awful. Average acting, poor pacing, muddled screenwriting... One would think the story should be able to tell itself, but this should have been kept locked away along with Charlie. See the original... it may be dated, but still chilling in its own right.

How much fun was this show? If you didn't like it, I feel a bit sorry for you. I know I can't help but "SMILE" everytime I think of this show, and PeeWee in particular. I had no favorite characters, nor storylines - i just let it take me away, and let it stand on its own merits. Isn't it a shame that, altho it wasnt that long ago, it seems like it was a simpler time?

From those of us fans, WE MISS YOU, PAUL! PeeWee was the best, and my life is better for having seen and enjoyed the experience.

After all the cookie cutter movies I've seen lately, i had the good fortune to see this movie. terrific story line, excellent acting by a whole crew of top actors and actresses ( i wanted to see more of the Muse dancing on the pole.. oh well) and any movie with skee ball gets an automatic bonus vote. Thanks to everyone for making this, and thanks to the Catholic Church for making such a fuss before it came out, that it drew my attention to it.
