Blatant rip-off

I and my daughter would watch Pee Wee's Playhouse on Saturday mornings, and she enjoyed it on her level and I enjoyed it from a grown-up's perspective. Weird Al blatantly ripped-off Pee Wee's ideas but didn't have the creativity to appeal to both levels. Don't get me wrong, I like Weird Al, but not in this situation.

If you wach it with cometary, he says that he wanted to show to apeal to 10 to 12 year olds, but the cridics wanted it for 2 to 11 year olds. At times, even I think this show is a bit retarted.
