Just wondering if it is possible Henson pulled Pepe out of the LJS ads because Denny's wanted an exclusive deal for Muppet restaurant promotion?

It sounded like Pepe got dropped by LJS, not the other way around.
They may have changed ad agencies. They may have decided he had run his course and was ready to be retired with Clara Peller and Joe Isuzu (although Joe's popped up again recently).
Or maybe he found out what was under the breading, okay?

If the 10% of the brain thing was true (it's not), I'd say I've got 8% of mine crammed with useless bits of information like that. I think I saw her in some 80's movie this past month on HBO or Showtime or something. Might have been Moving Violations.

See, there I go again!

Okay, here's some better placed trivia: The Muppet Movie is the only movie that Richard Pryor and Steve Martin were both in.
