An excerpt from the song was used by the Muppets in the recurring "Music Hath Charms" sketch performed on multiple variety shows.
It played as the background music for Gonzo's dancing chicken act in The Muppet Show episode 204.
The song serves as the background for Fozzie's dance act in episode 313.
Rowlf and Lew Zealand later sang the song backwards in episode 314, and it was performed again in The Muppet Show On Tour: 2nd Edition.
After Link Hogthrob is struck by a shower of dummo rays in the "Pigs in Space" sketch from episode 315, he begins to dance to his own humming of "Tea for Two."
In the pre-show for Muppet*Vision 3D, Gonzo entertains the audience by tap-dancing to this song while balancing a flower pot on his head. Later, he is joined by two other Gonzos in two other monitors.
The Count von Count and Lady Two parodied this song in a duet entitled "Two for Two".
