Part of the backstage plot "The Band Revolts" sketch was included in "The Muppet Show Book", published by Harry N. Abrams, Inc in 1978, in which the sequence was entirely illustrated by Tudor Banus. However, in this version Kermit gets the band to stay so that they can perform the song "I Feel Pretty" from Charles Aznavour (1976), instead of Kaye Ballard's first number to lead into the next segment.
Thog previously performed the song "Oh Babe What Would You Say" with Julie Andrews on Episode #1.20 (1973)
This is the only show in the first season in which Fozzie Bear only appears during the opening credits.
