I know that The Odyssey Chanel never aired Muppets Tonight, and the chanel was relaunched with part ownership from The Jim Henson Company after the series had been cancled, but does anybody know if maybe The Disney Channel had a contract to run the show during the time that Odyssey started? After all, that chanel did air other short-lived Henson shows (though not the MuppeTelevision segments of The Jim Henson Hour). I don't think Disney owned any distribution rights back then, so I think it could have aired on that channel. I think the chanel was owned by Henson for two or three years, and I could see The Disney Channel having a contract to air reruns of that show for perhaps that long (though I think Disney stoped airing reruns by the time the channel relaunched).
