With more than 40 hours of interviews, director Matt Wolf has fashioned a compelling, three-hour-plus documentary that still leaves questions unanswered.

“Pee-wee as Himself” premieres tonight, May 23, at 8 p.m. ET. The two-part documentary will air back-to-back on HBO linear premium cable channel with the episodes dropping on the Max streaming service at the same time.

Paul Reubens spent more than 40 hours discussing his life and career in the months before his 2023 death for the new two-part HBO documentary 'Pee-wee as Himself'.
