Sam the Machine is a full-body robot puppet that walked and talked slowly. He's one of the muppets I saw for the first time this school year.

Did he call any of the SS inhabitants earth creatures? I think he's from outer space...maybe a few years ago.

Or did he greet any of the SS inhabitants like good 9th-10th graders from high school?

He was a Super Automated Machine (SAM) who appeared on the show in the 70s. He was performed by Jerry Nelson, and whenever he were to give an answer, he would always somehow get it wrong.
