== Background == Also known as Sammy or Samuel, Sam's overtly patriotic spirit distinguishes him from the rest of the Muppet cast, as does his general stuffiness and pomposity. It has been a running gag in either ''[[The Muppet Show]]'', or the Muppet movies, that his nationalism is represented towards the United States. In ''[[The Muppet Christmas Carol]]'', the [[fourth wall]] was broken when Sam (playing Scrooge's former headmaster) informs the young Scrooge that he will enjoy business because "It is the American way". [[Gonzo (Muppet)|The Great Gonzo]], who plays [[Charles Dickens]], as well as the narrator, corrects him and says that the line is, "It is the British way," since the story is set in the [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland|United Kingdom]].
