According the Museum of Broadcast Communication, these folks were on The Playhouse.

Natasha Lyonne, S. Epatha Merkerson, Phil Hartman, Laurence Fishburne

Also, there was a Christmas special in 1988:

"That same year Pee-wee's Playhouse Christmas Special aired in prime time, featuring most of the regular characters plus a plethora of special guest stars including k. d. lang, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Little Richard, The Del Rubio Triplets, Cher, Grace Jones, Dinah Shore, Joan Rivers, Annette Funicello, and Frankie Avalon. "

Asker's Rating:
• Great answer. I especially like the video of Natasha Lyonne watching herself and as young child on the show.
