Clarissa is a member of the audience in Muppets Tonight episode 104 who's invited to participate in a sketch with Johnny Fiama. Reluctantly plucked from her seat by Sal Minella, Johnny attempts to swoon her with a rendition of "Close to You" over a Valentine's Day dinner. Objecting to her lack of a choice in what to order, and a disdain for the way veal is raised, she punches Sal in the face and leaves the stage.
The puppet was originally used as Denise in some Muppet Meeting Films.
