In 1984, Showtime Pizza, a competitor of Chuck E. Cheese's, bought the restaurant chain. The theme behind the restaurant chain evolved to include a fun-filled atmosphere that was meant for families with young kids. By 1992, Chuck E. Cheese's became the exclusive name for all the restaurants that were a part of the Showtime Pizza and Chuck E. Cheese's chain.
