User blog comment:Glenn31/Character Appreciation - Week 40: Sam/@comment-3394399-20171006171729

Not one of my least favorite characters by a longshot, but when it comes to my overall opinion on Sam there's more bad than good. I do think he has some funny moments here and there mainly based on the Seth Rogen persona, but other times he could be very grating or just straight up boring and Samkota always felt forced to me. Maybe if we had more reasoning for why they would like each other it would be okay, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of chemistry there until Dakota is turned into one of Sam's favorite video game monsters or something.

Didn't need to be in All Stars, but it may have been a blessing that saved us from the flanderazation of Brick's character, and at least going into the season you know there's really nothing for Sam to lose.
