Do Americans 'get' Sam Eagle?
« on: January 23, 2003, 07:54:55 AM »
Okay, for those who've forgotten, Sam Eagle is the blue eagle from the muppets, and keeps coming up with phrases like "stopping in the middle of the row is strictly Un-Patriotic" (taken from the Muppets 3D ride at Disney).

What I want to know is this: Do Americans find him funny, and if so, do they find him funny for the same reason as everyone else?



Was a General of the Imperial Guard, now more of a freelance Captain sort of thing. Ish. Keeping the rank pins though, they look nice.

I know who you are talking about however I can't remember too much of how he spoke as I haven't watched Muppets in a long time.

Being a Patriot, I might find it pretty funny though.  Now I have to check out some movies only to see it for myself.

I reccomend Muppets from Space:
"There are no aliens here, only good, wholesome Americans... now get off my Kentucy Blue Grass!" ;D
