Trivia

Sam is the only classic Muppet character (and a main character) to appear on the show. However, nobody on the show (except Jake) is aware of what a big star he is.
When told he must sing for the show, Sam tells Jake that he only knows "Tit Willow," a reference to the UK Spot from episode 120 of The Muppet Show.
