This is episode 5 from season one of "The Muppet Show" from 1976 and it features the talented actress Rita Moreno. I for one over the years have only from time to time saw Rita in things, but when watching again old Muppet Show episodes I was thrilled to see her talents on display! With typical episodes it features singing and funny lines from the Muppets, yet this one is most memorable for the fact that Rita sings "You give me Fever" to close out the show! And with her hot looks that's so true! And Fozzie the Bear battles the telephone as each time he answers the phone it does something different and funny from spilling water to blowing smoke out! Wow funny and nice episode with the attractive and talented Rita Moreno.

Rita Moreno singing "Fever" on the Muppet Show
stephenph-230 December 2006
One of the funniest guest episodes. Rita Moreno looking very sexy in a red strapless dress, starts singing "Fever" Peggy Lee's great hit seriously, when Animal's drumwork in the background gets a bit loud! (Buddy Rich, I believe played the drums!). Halfway through she stops and goes up to him and in half English and Spanish tells him to calm it and cool it or she will......
The scene continues but Animal gets really carried away by the Fever, drowning out Rita's voice! She walks round behind him , picks up the cymbols and squashes his head between them. As he falls unconscious he mutters, "MY kind a woman" in an appreciative tone!
