Sam's quiet desperation is just heart-wrenching.

I kept waiting for the punchline, but then realized this was just tearful backstory, a rare glimpse into the empty, directionless inner life of a throwaway character.

This kind of made me sad.

Wow, I REALLY didn't understand the subtlety of this as a kid. Go, Henson.

It's funny because it's true.

Aww, god bless the muppets.

Jim Henson and Frank Oz were the greatest, and perhaps most subversive, duo of all-ages entertainers. There, i said it. RIP Jim, and keep fighting the good fight, Frank.

This is fantastic. Can't wait for the 4th season to hit DVD.

Dammit, I'm sick of this PC bullshit. If owls want to be treated equally, they should put down the crack pipe, get off welfare and try doing an honest day's work for a change. SAM THE EAGLE FOR SENATE.
