Personally, I don't think Pee-Wee belongs on the list because Playhouse was purposely written that way, which I think is an important distinction if you're going to go with crack-headedness in children's programming.

I've never seen the Carebears. You make me almost sorry I haven't. *howls with laughter*

I suspect the writer missed the bits in between because they grew up with Sid and Marty and are now watching their own young ones' oevre.
