The Pop Culture Award: Pee-wee's Playhouse (1986-1991)
The weirdest winner wound up the festivities: Paul Reubens, AKA Pee-wee Herman, the man-child who lorded over a surreal world that was perfect for both youngsters and potheads.
The eternally mischievous Reubens told the audience: "This is such an honor. I have to say that I did not see it coming. There was a press release announcing this with my name on it, there were lots of promotional materials saying I was receiving this award, TV Land flew me to New York City -- BUT I AM STILL IN COMPLETE AND UTTER SHOCK!"
That, of course, could not be topped, so the evening ended on a wacky note.
