- Corpsing: Rita is very noticeably struggling to not crack up during "Fever."
- First Appearance: Of Veterinarian's Hospital and Marvin Suggs.
- Production Lead Time: The Atomic Energy Commission actually ceased operation in 1975, one year before this episode was filmed.
- Troubled Production: A mild example, but Rita Moreno said years later in an interview that they had to do multiple takes of "Fever", as the song's rhythm required it to be shot all in one take, where she hit her marks and kept a straight face.
- What Could Have Been: A photo exists of Rita Moreno standing next to a special version of the Animal puppet with a squashed face and star-pupil eyes, implying that an alternate ending to the "Fever" sketch was planned. The episode instead has the song played in a single-take with Animal's "my kind of woman!" line after Rita hits him with the cymbals.
Misc trivia: This episode got Rita Moreno the final award needed to complete her EGOT, nabbing herself an Emmy for Outstanding Continuing or Single Performance by a Supporting Actress in Variety or Music.
