And even before that... well before even OZ, some of the puppets didn't look all that... well. I haven't seen a good Piggy for the longest time. MFS maybe.Henson closed the majority of the Muppet Workshop facilities, the people who were let go went and formed Puppet Heap. There isn't a major difference between companies, they are all mostly Henson taught.

I will comment on MWoO (AGAIN).
I thought it was good as a Muppet vehicle. They could have made some changes (such as dropping Ashanti like a hot potato), but it was otherwise a good movie.
As far as AGT & Gonzo goes, I am angry, but I'm not surprised. This is NBC we're talking about here, who basically doesn't promote ANYTHING Muppets-related ENOUGH. There really wasn't enough plugging for Letters To Santa IMO (nor the Kermit + Piggy AGT appearance), and to me it looked like MWoO times 3000. It's almost like NBC hates the Muppets, but they get them onto their shows anyway. Come on NBC, fess up. You really, really hate the Muppets, don't you?
(Hiiiiiiiiiii-yaaah!)
Okay, I'm off the soapbox.
