Jambi is a
Genie. Actually, he is only a floating Genie head. He was a character on
Pee-Wee’s Playhouse. He was Pee-Wee’s Genie, and he would grant Pee-Wee one wish a show. He was kept in a
purple box covered in
rhinestones. Jambi would chant "
Mekka Lekka Hi, Mekka Heiny Ho," and Pee-Wee had to chant "Mekka Lekka Hi, Mekka Chonny Ho" for the wish to be granted.
John Paragon played Jambi.
