After ABC rejected this first Muppet pilot, Jim Henson revised the premise and produced The Muppet Show (1976), which had an extremely successful five-year run.
The song Mia Farrow and Thog sing, "Real Live Girl," was written by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh for the Broadway Musical 'Little Me.'
During the filming of this show, Mia Farrow was pregnant with her son Fletcher Farrow Previn, who would be born two months after the show aired.
