Pizza Hut(R) Gets TV Watchers Ready for New Fall Season with Great Deals

DALLAS, Sept. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- With millions of Americans looking for more economical entertainment options these days, the new line-up of fall television programs is welcome relief. Whether you're awaiting the return of your favorites or eager to check out the newcomers, pairing "dinner and a show" is a great way to enjoy a fun, inexpensive night at home. With this week signaling the start of the fall season, Pizza Hut has great deals on pizza, pasta and more -- the perfect accompaniments to your favorite shows. For a week of "Pizza, Pasta and Premieres," here are some suggestions.

Reality Shows: TV watchers turn to reality shows for an escape from their hectic, everyday lives. If the reality of your life leaves you with little time to plan dinner, then Tuscani Pastas are for you! Restaurant-quality Tuscani Pastas from Pizza Hut are an affordable, sensible solution to meet the needs of time-crunched individuals looking for an easy, no-hassle meal. The newest variety of Tuscani Pastas, Premium Bacon Mac 'N Cheese, comes complete with rich, creamy cheese over corkscrew pasta, complimented by crumbled bacon on top, for a taste that the whole family will love. You can also try Meaty Marinara and Creamy Chicken Alfredo. Each variety is accompanied by five breadsticks and feeds four people for just $12.99.

Dramas: How's this for drama? Seven friends are heading over to your place to watch your favorite show and you only have $15 to feed them. It's no problem with some help from Pizza Mia(TM) pizza from Pizza Hut -- a great everyday value on a great pizza. A one-topping Pizza Mia is just $5 when you order three or more. Pizza Mia comes with ingredients pizza lovers crave -- whole milk mozzarella cheese, sauce made from sweet vine-ripened tomatoes, and dough made from Great Plains flour. Now that dinner is taken care of, the only drama will be on TV.

Sports: With baseball pennant races winding down and football season kicking off, there's no shortage of games on TV in September. Nothing goes better with the big game than WingStreet(R) chicken wings. With eight different sauces, including the award-winning Buffalo Burnin' Hot sauce, available in crispy bone-in, boneless and traditional style, making a selection is one tough call.

Comedies: Just as your favorite comedies put a smile on your face after a long day, the newest Pizza Hut dessert, HERSHEY'S(R) Chocolate Dunkers(TM) will put a smile on your face after dinner. Ten warm, freshly baked treats come topped with white chocolate and HERSHEY'S milk chocolate and served with rich HERSHEY'S chocolate dunking sauce. Of course, you won't be laughing when they're all gone.
