From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sam is a fictional character from the Canadian TV series Life with Derek. He is played by Kit Weyman.

[edit] Character Description

Sam is Derek's best friend and Hockey teammate. Unlike Derek, who is macho and very demanding, Sam is more kind and quiet, which is probably one of the reasons why Casey MacDonald (Derek's stepsister) is attracted to him.

When Sam was first introduced in the episode "The Fall", It is plain to see that they both had a liking for each other. But they do not officially become a couple until the season one finale episode "Male Code Blue". They continued dating for a month until they hit a couple of minor snags in their relationship, namely:

Casey becomes preoccupied worrying about Derek and Emily's first date than celebrating her "month-aversary" with Sam.
In the episode "Middle Manic", Casey becomes annoyed with Sam's laid-back attitude and decides to break up with him. They then decide to make up and then break up again. But finally by the end of the episode they decide to break up for good.

And now even though Sam is no longer dating Casey they still decided to be friends and even became members of Derek's rock band, "D-Rock".
