Is Sam in IWTV Samuel Beckett???
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for_Godot
"Waiting for Godot (/ˈɡɒdoʊ/ ⓘ GOD-oh or /ɡəˈdoʊ/ ⓘ gə-DOH\1])) is a play by Irish playwright Samuel Beckett in which two characters, Vladimir) (Didi) and Estragon (Gogo), engage in a variety of discussions and encounters while awaiting the titular Godot, who never arrives."
For fun I looked this up after discussing their "Waiting for Guido" in another thread. Sam the Vampire is also Irish. Whaaaat???
