Oh, dear. Actor Fred “Pee Wee Herman” Willard was arrested for “lewd conduct” in an adult movie theater in Hollywood last night.

More from TMZ:

Fred Willard was arrested for lewd conduct last night in Hollywood when police caught him with his pants down in an adult movie theater … TMZ has learned.

According to law enforcement sources, LAPD undercover vice officers went into the Tiki Theater in Hollywood and found the 78-year-old “Anchorman” star watching last night’s feature … with his penis exposed and in his hand — aka, pulling a Pee-Wee Herman.

TMZ also reports that Willard is in pre-production for a movie called “The Yank.” Hey, he was just researching. Method acting, people! Yeah, that’s the ticket!

Twitter users are highly amused.

It certainly gives new meaning to one of his other movies: “Best in Show.”

A few have some advice for the lewd actor for the next time he wants to take matters into his own hands.

Update:

Good idea!
