I was saddened to hear the news. I recently rewatched a clip of him in Buffy the Vampire Slayer & he was hilarious. Aside from his obvious acting & comedic talents, he seemed like a genuinely kind soul. May he Rest In Peace & his legacy live on through all of his great work as well as his kindness towards others.
Strange to learn of his passing after catching Pee Wee's Big Adventure on TV for the first time. I'm pleased to report that it was funnier than I anticipated. His TV show was a hoot in college. Thanks Paul, for making the world a weirder & slightly better place!
