    Piggy and Jessica reunite for Pizza Hut and the Super Bowl

    I think you're right. There must have been an option in the original contract for Pizza Hut to renew a new series of commercials before the Disney purchase. I don't think Disney would ever lease out Mickey Mouse (for example) to promote anything other than Disney.

    Henson sells Muppets to Disney

    It would have been nice if Michael Eisner had just brought the Muppets (with some of his investor pals) for himself. Then the Muppets would have thrived.
