Green Eggs and Ham is an animated series for Netflix loosely based on the Dr. Seuss book of the same name. It was created by Jared Stern for Warner Bros. Animation and produced by Ellen DeGeneres. It is the third TV series based on Dr. Seuss's work and the first to be based solely on a particular book.note The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss adapted characters and settings from his entire body of work for new stories, while The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That! stars the characters from The Cat in the Hat, but isn't an adaptation of the book itself.The series follows friendly, optimistic Sam-I-Am (voiced by Adam Devine) and dour failed inventor Guy-Am-I (a.k.a. the unnamed second character from the book, voiced by Michael Douglas) as they journey to the city of Meepville to return a rare Chickeraffe to its natural habitat before it's sold to wealthy animal collector Snerz (voiced by Eddie Izzard). Along the way, they're occasionally joined by their distaff counterparts, safety-obsessed Michellee (voiced by Diane Keaton) and her adventurous daughter E.B. (voiced by Ilana Glazer), and followed by two dangerous-looking characters called The B.A.D.G.U.Y.S., veteran animal hunter McWinkle and his rookie sidekick Gluntz (voiced by Jeffrey Wright and Jillian Bell, respectively), attempting to capture the animal themselves.Their adventure takes them to many different places, including in a car, on a train, on a boat, in the rain, with a fox, in a box, in a house, with a mouse... all the while, Sam is trying to get Guy to try new things, including his Trademark Favorite Food.The first season at 13 episodes premiered November 8, 2019. A ten-episode second season, with the subtitle The Second Serving, premiered April 8, 2022. The Second Serving takes the form of a spy thriller amidst the backdrop of The Butter Battle Book. | |

Canon Foreigner: Only Sam, Guy, the mouse, the goat and the fox appeared in the book. Every other character was invented for the show. Although, Michellee and E.B. could have been based on the mother and her child who were seen riding the train in the book. | |

| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Snerz has bouffant yellow hair (actually a fluffy animal he forces to cover his baldness), runs a conglomerate, is prone to firing his employees, and collects a series of gold-plated objects. Ring any bells? At one point he actually says he has "all the best words". In another scene, he does a double victory "V" with his hands. | |

Card-Carrying Villain: Parodied. The BAD GUYS's business card is literally just the words "BAD GUYS"... on the front, but it turns out to be a Nonindicative Name once one actually flips the card around. It's actually an acronym for Bureau of Animal Defense, Glurfsberg, Upper Yipville Section. They're Good All Along. | |

I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham: True to the book, which is the piece of media that gave name to this trope itself, Guy finally relents and eats the dish in "Anywhere", only this time it's to win back Sam's trust. Of course, he winds up enjoying it. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy Downplayed with Sam-I-Am. In the book, he's, at worst, a friendly-if-pesky little guy trying to get his nameless companion to try new things. Here, he's even friendlier and only slightly less of a pest... and also an animal-smuggling scam artist with a long rap sheet who steals a rare animal from the zoo not to return it to its natural habitat but to sell it to a wealthy collector. Thankfully, his adventures and friendship with Jenkins and Guy turn him around in the end and convince him to actually get Mr. Jenkins to the wild. The goat in the book is hardly a character at all, just one of the many things Sam wants the other character to eat Green Eggs and Ham with. Here, he's a literal bounty hunter. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Over half-a-dozen. Sam and Guy's matching briefcases. They accidentally take one another's briefcases near the end of Episode 1. It actually saves Sam's skin as the BAD GUYS were hot on his trail. Sam's Wildlife Protection Agent badge. It's to signify his role as such is a complete lie. Guy's failed flight pack. He uses its side-effect of exploding to defeat the Goat in the final episode. The Stovepipe newspaper Sam reads during his origin story. Michellee's jar of beans. She spills them on the ground so that the Girooster can distract Snerz and the BAD GUYS while she, Guy, and E.B. run off to catch up to Sam. Michellee and EB's "friendship bracelets." They attach one of them to Snerz's wrist, and throw the other to the top of the hot air balloon airport tower to incapacitate him. The BAD GUYS calling card. It's to signify that BAD GUYS is actually an acronym for "Bureau of Animal Defense — Glurfsburg Upper Yipville Section. The Giroosters' uncanny resemblance to Mr. Jenkins. Sam uses this to trick Snerz when it looks like he really was selling Mr. Jenkins to the latter. Snerz's living wig. It's Snerz's dirty secret, and once exposed, it turns him into a bald laughingstock, and it's later revealed that the wig, named a Flerz, takes over Snerz's entire corporation. In the climax of "The Second Serving", the Goo-Lacka-Goo is used to contain the explosion from the Moo-Lacka-Moo rocket. | |

Adaptation Expansion: From a book about learning to eat new things only using 50 words to a "postmodern Planes, Trains and Automobiles" about two mismatched heroes taking a road trip to return a rare creature to its natural habitat. The Second Serving turns it into a spy thriller revolving around a cold war. | |

Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Despite claiming to be an expert on wildlife, the "facts" that Sam-I-Am states over the course of the journey are blatantly inaccurate, such as how "biology isn't a science" and that goats cannot climb mountains. After the latter, Guy outright asks Sam if he really knows what he's talking about. This, of course, ends up being a hint to Sam's true nature, and these moments are even flash backed to when Guy learns the truth about him. | |

| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_2504772e | comment |
Walking Spoiler: Sam and the BAD GUYS have the most spoilers out of any of the characters. Sam isn't actually a Wildlife Protection Agent. He's a scam artist who captured the Chickeraffe not to send it back to it's home, but to sell it to Snerz for his animal collection. He also dons various personas to scam other people. McWinkle and Gluntz, the BAD GUYS, aren't actually "bad guys." They're actually on the good side, as their goal throughout the season is to apprehend Sam-I-Am before he sells off the Chickeraffe to Snerz. The "bad guys" is actually an acronym. | |

Palette Swap: Giroosters look very similar to Chickeraffes, just with a darker color palette and a love of beans compared to the Chickeraffes' love of ties. Their resemblance ends up a plot point in "Anywhere"; Sam dyed a Girooster to look like a Chickeraffe, and Snerz didn't notice the difference until it was doused with punch. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The trailer has the narrator mention "Whoville" and "The Places You'll Go" the former is the setting of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! and Horton Hears a Who! and the latter referencing Oh the Places You'll Go! There is also a family of fish whose house is accidentally destroyed by the car Sam & Guy hijack. And when the goat sinks the boat. Also from said book, a walrus-like creature not unlike Clark is among Snerz's menagerie. Blink and you'll miss it, but Snerz takes out a passport to the Nation of Zookia. note This would turn out to foreshadow the major set piece of Season 2, which took influence from The Butter Battle Book . Each of the one-word episode titles are based on what Guy said in the books that he doesn't want to get Green Eggs and Ham. (e.g. I will not eat with them in a house, I will not with a fox) Guy actually recites his lines from the book at least once an episode. In the last episode, Guy's newspaper is called Who.S.A. Today, as another reference to Whoville. Sam and Guy's police sketches are drawn in the traditional Seussian cross-hatched style, as is Michellee's illustration of Mr. Jenkins. The Living Books adaptation of the book had a mini game featuring other technicolor foods, including purple pancakes. At the end of "Anywhere", Sam mentions purple pancakes while reading through the diner menu. Despite the odd offhand use of the word "human" once or twice, the population is certainly Seussical in design. The Am-I's are a family of Knoxes, with Gluntz and miscellaneous bystanders sharing the same Goofy-eared trait. Snerz seems to be a Zode, an indecisive being Seuss illustrated for his 1956 poem Did I Ever Tell You...?. McWinkle appears to be a Bumble (a people well-known for their Bumble-Tub Club) with blue fur instead of yellow. When Sam crashes a graduation, he starts to give a speech that begins "Oh, The Places You'll Go", a Dr. Seuss book that happens to be a very popular gift for graduates. Katroo is mentioned in an episode of The Second Serving. When E. B. visits a Zookia cafe, a Freeze-Frame Bonus shows the menu of toast flavours includes Roast Beast and Truffula. There was also a Pam-I-Am on The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss. When Sam was dropped off at the orphanage in Pam's flashback, he came bundled with the sign that introduced him in the book. | |

Furry Confusion: The fox, mouse and goat are fully sapient beings, with the former two wearing clothes. Meanwhile, the various Mix-and-Match Critters are Nearly Normal Animals who are kept in zoos and cannot talk, although at least Chickeraffes and Giroosters understand speech. Furthermore, the green eggs laid by fully sapient hens are popular food, and the green ham also has to come from somewhere... | |

Disappeared Dad | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_28cd01ca | comment |
Disappeared Dad: Michellee is a widow which presumably is why she's so worried about her daughter's safety. Confirmed in "There" when Michellee mentioned how her husband died when E.B. was little. Snerz's father isn't mentioned at all, let alone featured, and Sam's father is barely mentioned. In fact, Guy is the only character who is shown to have a father. | |

| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_28d87218 | comment |
Food End: "Anywhere" ends with Sam and Guy sharing the titular meal after Snerz was defeated and all is well, and Sam finally recognizes the taste of his mother's cooking in one of the eggs. Season 2 ends with Sam finally getting to enjoy green eggs and ham with his mother just like before she put him in the orphanage. | |

McWinkle and Gluntz always refer to their boss as "the Big Man". Turns out that it's not a nickname for Snerz; it's someone actually named Bigman, although he's actually really small. | |

Chained Heat: In preparation for their trip, Michellee gets EB and herself "friendship bracelets." These accessories are more like handcuffs that magnetically latch on to each other with a press of the button so her daughter can't get too far away from her. In Season 2 Michellee and Guy's wedding rings do the same thing. | |

Adapted Out: The two animals Sam rides in the beginning of the book and TV special are absent in this series. Season 2 does not include any of the characters from The Butter Battle Book despite being an adaption of it. The young Yook, his grandfather, and the Chief Yookaroo don't appear, and neither does Van Itch. Despite being the ultimate weapon in The Butter Battle Book and its substance the Moo-Lacka-Moo playing a crucial role, the Bitsy Big-Boy Boomeroo doesn't make an appearance in The Second Serving. Instead, the Moo-Lacka-Moo is used as a component for explosive rockets. | |

Actor Allusion: Broadway star Daveed Diggs, best known for playing Marquis de La Fayette in Hamilton, plays another character who's a revolutionary with a French accent who sings a song which parodies a Broadway show about French revolution in "Mouse." In "Rain", the mudslide scene is a nod to Romancing the Stone, which starred Guy's voice actor, Michael Douglas. This isn't the first time Eddie Izzard's voiced a rich guy who wants to add a rare animal to his collection. | |

Actionized Sequel: Season 1 was already an Actionized Adaptation, but it was ultimately more of a roadtrip buddy comedy with some peril here and there. Season 2, while still absolutely lighthearted and comedic in its tone, is more or less a kid-friendly spy thriller with multiple action scenes and a plot about two warring countries that end up launching nuclear warheads at each other. | |

Adaptational Alternate Ending | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_4a5fcde | comment |
Adaptational Alternate Ending: Season 2 is this to The Butter Battle Book. Said book famously and poignantly has No Ending, with the heavy implication that what amounts to nuclear annihilation will wipe out both sides. Here, the weapons are in fact fired, but they are contained and the two nations resolve their differences. | |

Museum of Boredom | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_4a8f2db4 | comment |
Museum of Boredom: After giving up on his invention, Guy's fallback plan is to go to Meepville and get a job as a paint-watcher. Even the perpetually-enthusiastic Sam has to force himself to sound excited about that choice of career. Most of the attractions Michellee wants to take E.B. to, in keeping with her initial distrust of excitement. Subverted with the Hall of Walls, which is actually a gallery of vivid artworks that EB loves. E.B. first seems very disappointed when Looka takes her to Yookia's National Museum. She not only starts to like it, but finds an important closed-down exhibit explaining the history of Yookia and Zookia. | |

Central Theme | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Do not take things at face-value, ranging from Michellee and her thinking that Mr. Jenkins the Chickeraffe is dangerous to the audience knowing the truth about Sam and BAD GUYS. The extended lyrics to the show's opening "Backflip" adds onto it: "But take any advice with a grain of salt" which reflects that you shouldn't 100% believe everything you see/hear. Mothers and good motherhood also feature as a theme in the show, from Michellee's overprotectiveness keeping her from being "fun", to Karen Am-I's genuine love and encouragement of her son Guy, to Sam's Missing Mom leaving him in an orphanage, to Snerz's mother letting his pet Flemur go and putting the blame on herself to protect his feelings. The original's story central theme of "don't diss food until you try it" is notably brought into their adaptation of The Butter Battle Book, where the conflict between the two nations is solved by making the leaders try a full butter sandwich, their reactions even parallel to Guy's. | |

Big Eater: Sam. While his book counterpart was peddling the same Green Eggs & Ham meal for the whole book, this Sam gobbles down entire platters in seconds and would do so three or more times a day if given the opportunity. This actually bites him later, because McWinkle noticing his consumption of the meal is what makes him try to figure out which places serve this dish so he can figure out where Sam's heading up to next. | |

Scarily Competent Tracker | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_6feaf27b | comment |
Scarily Competent Tracker: In a bizarre world, McWinkle gets by with sensible logic and ruthlessness. For example, when the protagonists would theoretically have an entire town to hide in, McWinkle is able to determine just from visiting a restaurant they were at, that the pair is short on cash (they only ordered partial portions) and to make money fast, they'd likely find work at the local carnival (which they are at). The Goat is a more typical example of the trope as he manages to get on Sam and Guy's trail with some rather off-kilter methods. McWinkle takes the cake upon using Sam's love of Green Eggs and Ham as a guide, figuring out which places serve the titular dish to figure out where Sam and Guy head next. | |

And the Adventure Continues | |

And the Adventure Continues: By way of The End... Or Is It?. It looks like Sam and Guy are finally ready to put their whole crazy adventure behind them and enjoy some Green Eggs and Ham together... but wait! Sam recognizes the particular eggs he's eating as the kind his estranged mother used to make for him, and the two head off to the farm in East Flubria where they were bought to find answers. | |

Adaptational Angst Upgrade | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_730d3664 | comment |
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: The fox from the book is given both a name (Michael) and a potent cocktail of neuroses as he attempts to woo an aloof hen at the farm he works at who looks down on him for eating eggs. His efforts to deprive himself of his favorite food have caused him to become unstable and violent. Mentioning eggs or even the name of his would-be girlfriend is enough to cause him to go on a rampage. Sam as well. It turns out that he's a Sad Clown underneath his beaming smile and his love of Green Eggs and Ham is the one thing that connects him to his long-lost mother. Even the mouse is also given an angsty backstory, where he was jailed for stealing cheese to feed his family. | |

Growling Gut: Two scenes in "Dark." After Mr. Jenkins swallows the absurdly long tie Guy and Sam got for him, his stomach lurches wildly, followed by a bulge traveling up his throat. At first, it looks like he's going to throw up or let out a large belch in Guy's face... but it turns out to be a little "pop" sound. Later, when they're stuck in the landfill pit, Sam asks a standoffish Guy if he's hungry. Guy angrily tells him no, but then his hungry, growling stomach says otherwise. | |

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Yooks tend to have cold colours (green, blue, purple) in their fur and clothing, whereas Zooks typically have warm colours (red, orange, yellow). However this is not universal; Philip Trouser, for example, works for Zookia but is almost entirely blue. | |

Not even his own mother. In Episode 8, Guy lets loose criticizing a group of wild Giroosters attacking E.B., causing them to back down and thus saving her. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Sam's lack of caution causes him to make most situations he and Guy find themselves in worse. Such as deciding to drive a car off a cliff into a lake without bothering to wake up Guy (who was still inside it), or opening up a drainage pipe without reading what it was being used for and causing corrosive toxic sludge to flood the area. Then again, calling Sam a "hero" is a bit of a stretch... | |

Our Humans Are Different | |

Despite the odd offhand use of the word "human" once or twice, the population is certainly Seussical in design. The Am-I's are a family of Knoxes, with Gluntz and miscellaneous bystanders sharing the same Goofy-eared trait. Snerz seems to be a Zode, an indecisive being Seuss illustrated for his 1956 poem Did I Ever Tell You...?. McWinkle appears to be a Bumble (a people well-known for their Bumble-Tub Club) with blue fur instead of yellow. | |

Mama Snerz reveals later that it was a Self-Serving Memory — the Flemur was terrified of Snerz because he handled it much too roughly, suggesting that he was always greedy and emotionally domineering to some extent. | |

The Mouse is finally ready to execute his escape plan "after 17 years of careful preparation", Guy's hotel room number is 17, Mr. Jenkins breaks 17 rare and priceless vases and there are 17 Chickeraffes left in the world. The digits get flipped in "Anywhere" for Platform 71. | |

Retraux | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_92dfffae | comment |
Retraux: The show seems to be set in a sort of Seussian version of the mid-20th century (the 1960s specifically, when the book was first published): character still regularly read newspapers and technology doesn't seem to have progressed since the early '70s, the most advanced devices being credit card readers and a handheld 16mm camera used by one of Snerz's cronies, without a cell phone, flat screen or even a personal computer in sight. Also, aside from Rivers Cuomo's theme song, most of the pop music is from either the '60s, slightly earlier (Bobby Darin's "Somewhere Beyond the Sea" from 1958) or slightly later (The O'Jays' "For The Love Of Money" from 1973). Season 2 is also clearly set in a Cold War, and takes inspiration from the James Bond movies (which began in 1962). | |

Rewatch Bonus: Once the viewer knows the true colors of Sam and the BAD GUYS, they'll start to notice the hints sprinkled throughout the entire season upon a rewatch. Such as the fact that Mr. Snerz never refers to the smuggler by name. So it misleads us to think that the BAD GUYS are working for him, when really, it’s Sam-I-Am. Sam loving green eggs and ham becomes harsher when we learn why he loves eating it so much. | |

Odd Couple: Sam's an upbeat guy with a love of green eggs and ham. Guy is a grump dragged along for the ride with a keen mind of machinery. There's also the familial Michellee and EB (worrying, overprotective mother and adventurous daughter), and the coworker pair McWinkle and Gluntz (gruff, stoic veteran animal-catcher and enthusiastic, energetic rookie). | |

Maternity Crisis: Averted, in "On Her Dookess' Secret Service" it seems like Michellee's started to go into labor in the middle of the Zookia inventor's lab...but she's actually faking it to stall Guy some time to sabotage his invention. Played straight in "The Mom Who Loved Me" when Michellee goes into labor for real right as the bombs are about to go off on both sides. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The opening theme song for the series, "Backflip", pretty much hints the developments that're going to happen with Guy and Sam and nearly all the main characters. The group called BAD GUYS actually get along so well compared to our main characters and never use violence on Guy and Sam. It's a possible hint that they're the good guys this entire time. Speaking of, when the closed captions are turned on, you notice it's always in all caps when they're mentioned? It's a possible clue that it's an acronym that names them as anything but bad guys. McWinkle and Gluntz always refer to their boss as "the Big Man". Turns out that it's not a nickname for Snerz; it's someone actually named Bigman, although he's actually really small. Sam stating that Guy is "the brains" and he's the "other brains". Because Sam is a smooth-talking scam artist with people skills in comparison to Guy's technical genius. Also, even though Sam is determined to get the Chickeraffe home, why is it that he doesn't seem to have any knowledge about it at all? Because he's lying; he's an animal smuggler scam artist. He usually uses Guy's money in order to pay for everything, and also acquires the Goat's credit card. Again, part and parcel of being a scam artist. Michellee is able to draw an accurate description of the Chickeraffe, and later on draws a spot-on portrait of her daughter in crayon. She was actually an artist before her husband passed away. The fact that Guy initially mistakes the Giroosters for Chickeraffes foreshadows Sam using a Girooster to fool Snerz. In "Car", after Sam discovers the Chickeraffe is missing, the episode cuts to Snerz learning that the person he hired to capture the Chickeraffe has lost it, heavily hinting that he hired Sam. In this instance, the series tries to throw the viewers off by showing the BAD GUYS getting a call from their boss right after, suggesting that they're working for Snerz. In the first episode of season 2, just before Guy departs, she tells him to “be careful with her baby�, seemingly referring to E.B. As the season progresses, it turns out that she’s pregnant. | |

Reimagining the Artifact | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_9ecb2ba8 | comment |
Reimagining the Artifact: The titular dish is present and Sam does try to get his friend to eat it Once an Episode, but it's not the main thrust of the story. Instead, it's symbolic of Guy's character development, and he finally relents to eat them as a big gesture of friendship to Sam to make up for hurting his feelings. Sam's own love for the dish is also given greater context as being a missing link between him and the mother who abandoned him. As a result, the book's original, more simple message of "Don't be afraid to try new things" is broadened into "Don't take things at face value." | |

Non-Lethal Warfare | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_9fb11776 | comment |
Non-Lethal Warfare: Even though "The Second Serving" is a spy thriller with the amount of violence expected from the genre, most weapons are comically harmless, with explosives that just cover the opponents in goo and guns that fire "tickle darts" making the victims laugh uncontrollably. When Sam and Pam knock out a group of security guards, they put them to sleep by feeding them chamomille tea and give them pillows to sleep on. Averted with the explosive rockets in the climax, which are strongly implied to be actually deadly. | |

The Password Is Always "Swordfish": In "Train" E.B. tries to guess the password to unattach her safety bracelet from the roof of the train car. She fails, but ends up getting freed by saying the word "Password" afterwards. In "Three Days of Mom-dor", Marilyn Blouse, one of Pam-I-Am's spy rivals, is asked to enter a code to open a hangar door. The code is labeled as "Code Trousers won't forget", "Trousers" referring to Philip Trousers, her work partner, who has been repeatedly shown to not be very bright. The code? Just the number "1". | |

Your Approval Fills Me with Shame: Subverted. Sam turns in the supposed Chickeraffe to Snerz, with Snerz complimenting how coldly he acts about Jenkins and his friends. Sam clearly looks uncomfortable with these implications. But it turns out he faked the transaction with a Girooster painted to look like Mr. Jenkins. So his shame was an act. | |

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Every episode in the first season is only one word, and is named after an element where the meal would be eaten in the original book which otherwise refers to whatever is the subject of the plot. The second season instead goes with Pun-Based Titles, with the episode titles all being plays on various different pieces of Spy Fiction, mostly but not exclusively James Bond films. | |

Actionized Adaptation: The series features the characters in greater peril than in their home book, complete with a dangerous climactic battle between the heroes and villains. The second season, loosely based on The Butter Battle Book, ups the action by turning the story into a spy thriller, with a climax where the heroes have to stop a pair of weapons of mass destruction. | |

Surprisingly, this is a deconstruction: His love for it stems from his mother making it for breakfast and he's trying to find the one who tastes exactly like hers. Though he does genuinely like them, calling out how they're good under various conditions and inviting Guy to try them. Also Exploited when his constant consumption of it is noticed by McWinkle and he uses said fact to figure out where Sam and Guy are heading next. Chickeraffes have a love of ties (which grow on trees). Giroosters, on the other hand, like beans. This comes into play in the finale. | |

Pantsless Males, Fully-Dressed Females | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_b3595485 | comment |
Pantsless Males, Fully-Dressed Females: Female characters tend to wear more clothing than males in the show. Sam, Guy and McWinkle wear only hats and, in the latter's case, sunglasses, whereas E.B., Michellee and Gluntz wear a dress, a shawl and a vest respectively. Inverted with Philip Trouser in the second season, who wears a full suit, including pants, as part of being a James Bond pastiche. | |

Droste Image: The Model Train Car on the train has a model of the train itself that replicates everything that happens on it. At one point, Guy looks through one of the train car's windows to see the backside of himself looking at a model train. The little Guy even mimics everything the big Guy is doing. | |

Used to Be a Sweet Kid | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_be0ad6b7 | comment |
Used to Be a Sweet Kid: Subverted with Snerz. He goes into detail telling a story of how he was much happier as a child and affectionately played with his pet Flemur, but his mother accidentally let it out one night and he never recovered from the incident, becoming a cold-hearted business tycoon as an adult. Mama Snerz reveals later that it was a Self-Serving Memory — the Flemur was terrified of Snerz because he handled it much too roughly, suggesting that he was always greedy and emotionally domineering to some extent. Played straight with Guy. As a child, he used to be much more enthusiastic, happy-go-lucky, and confident. However, after experiencing one failure after another as an adult, he turned into the surly man we see on the show. | |

Mommy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: Sam doesn't seem to dwell too much on his mother's reasons for leaving him at an orphanage, but he implicitly assumes this trope since he expects their reunion to be easy and heartwarming; Guy is more skeptical. Late in The Second Serving, it's revealed that Pam left Sam because her life as a spy meant she was constantly in danger and risked Sam getting hurt in the crossfire. | |

Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: In the first episode, the BAD GUYS interrogate the zookeeper by dangling him over the slapping turtle habitat. Once the zookeeper makes a confession and McWinkle tells Gluntz to drop him, she drops him into the habitat where he gets beaten up by the turtles. | |

Last-Name Basis: McWinkle (presumably) and Gluntz go by and call each other by their last names exclusively. Same goes for their boss, Chief Bigman. With the exception of his mother, everyone also calls Snerz by his last name exclusively. | |

Ambiguously Gay | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_e34400ab | comment |
Ambiguously Gay: Sometimes, it appears that Sam shows some signs of having a small crush on Guy, as he's constantly complimenting him and calling him by sweet nicknames, being comfortable of touching and being touched by him and even having a miniature doll of Guy in his backpack which he quickly kisses in the cheek before hiding it away from Guy himself. This was motivated even further by Netflix itself as an ad for the series compare them both to Ross and Rachel, from Friends, and then adds a subtitle besides Sam during the scene where Guy motivates Sam to keep looking for his mother saying "kiss me u fool". In Season 2, Sam is shown to find Looka attractive. | |

Expy | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: As the series is loosely inspired by Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Sam and Guy themselves are loosely based on Del Griffith and Neil Page, respectively. Guy, like Neil, is a standoffish businessman who lives with his loving family in a Big Fancy House and just wants to get from one place to another with no trouble. Sam, like Del, is a well meaning but somewhat annoying drifter who treats everyone he meets like his best friend and has a special connection with a woman who's no longer in his life. Humorously, their physical dynamic inverts that film's Fat and Skinny duo, with the Neil expy being the bigger of the two and the Del expy being petite. | |

Flanderization | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: Sam in the first season, although he could be lonely and clingy, was dangerously slick and competent. Come season two, he's an overgrown child who's seemingly incapable of reading a room, and whose antics sabotage his mother's extremely important international spy mission. Guy even calls him a kid at several points, something he never did in season one. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: The one thing that Sam would show absolute terror of is the Old Goat. He's an infamous competitor with an impeccable record that has been sent after his quarry. In the episode "Boat", Sam is too consumed with guilt about his plans to sell Mr. Jenkins to Snerz to even eat Green Eggs and Ham. In one of the more depressing scenes of the first season, he is shown in shock after Guy chews him out for hiding his past and Guy stating that Sam doesn't "fit" anyone; not even his mother. How does Guy express guilt for telling Sam doesn't fit anyone, particularly his own mother (and by that token, suggesting that Sam's mother abandoned him because she also got sick of him)? By eating Green Eggs and Ham. | |

Younger Than They Look: Stress and depression have caused Guy to look vaguely middle-aged with prominent scowl lines. If his high school classmates are of any indication, he's roughly in his late twenties or early thirties. Lampshaded by Sam in the second season when he points out he has no idea how old Guy is. | |

Exact Words | |

Exact Words: When McWinkle asks one of the citizens of South Shvizelton to tell them where Guy, Sam, and the Chickeraffe went, the citizen responds by telling him that nobody in South Shvizelton gossips. Gluntz decides to drag him into North Shvizelton, a seedy neighborhood, right behind her, and he gladly tells her that one of them got locked up in prison (and that his neighbor Phyllis is lying about their fruit loaf being homemade when it's actually bought from the store). Better yet, the BAD GUYS are not bad guys. BAD GUYS is just a shortened way of saying the acronym of them being animal defenders. McWinkle and Glunz mention having to call someone called "the Big Man". Turns out, their boss's name is Bigman. | |

Anti-Climactic Parent: Even after starting to warm up to Sam, Guy is adamant about not staying with his parents (even when they have nowhere else to go), giving the impression that they're hyper-critical. When they do turn up, the whole family is welcoming and supportive of both Guy and Sam. It turns out that Guy is projecting his own insecurities onto his parents' view of him (they're all highly successful, whereas literally everything he invents blows up). | |

Evil Brit: Snerz is voiced by British actor Eddie Izzard, and thus is portrayed with a British accent. Downplayed with the Zookian spies Philip Trousers and Marilyn Blouse who aren't evil as much as they are simply fighting for the opposite side (that said, Philip was willing to let Pam die, so...), but they are still antagonists and they both have British accents, with Marilyn's being English and Philip's being Welsh. | |

Easily Forgiven: Averted. Finding out late in the game that the person trying to be best friends with you is a scam artist would break anyone's trust, and Guy is not ready to forget it when Sam comes to break him out of the police precinct. Sam is also genuinely offended by Guy implying that Sam's mother abandoning him is proof that he doesn't belong anywhere and is not at all excited to see him when they reunite before the climax. | |

Mix-and-Match Critters | |
| Green Eggs and Ham (2019) / int_f5eda11 | comment |
Mix-and-Match Critters: A large chunk of this world's fauna seem to be combinations of real-life animals. Most prominently featured are the Chickeraffes, which, as their name suggests, are part chicken and part giraffe, and look very similar to the closely-related Giroosters. The various episodes also feature the Moostrich, the Walvark, the Llama-gnu, the Pandog and the Flemur, and there's also a reference to Orangutoads. In "The Second Serving", Camelopes, Dolphacudas, Crocopotamuses, El-Llamas, Skunakes, Squails, and Kangarangutans join the mix. | |

Cut Apart: Scene cutting tricks are used to connect the BAD GUYS to Snerz. Every time they mention the "Big Man", the scene cuts to Snerz, acting as if in response to their progress. In fact, there is no connection and their boss's name is literally "Captain Walter Bigman". Done again in the second season: it looks like Pam is infiltrating the Yookia castle to stop Sam from stealing the Moo-Lacka-Moo, especially since she was hired specifically to eliminate Sam, but she actually went to the Zookia castle to stop their weapons. A spy does show up to attempt to stop Sam, but it's actually Pam's rival, Philip Trousers. | |

Then it’s revealed that they’re not bad guys at all, just B.A.D.G.U.Y.S.*Bureau of Animal Defence, Glurfsburg, Upper Yipsville Section. Played a bit more straight with Philip Trousers and Marilyn Blouse from The Second Serving (though Philip is often seen alone and is part of most of the conflict with the good guys). Philip is a vain and cocky but rather unintelligent and dull man who cares more about his looks and straight up admits that he often doesn't understand anything while Marilyn is more intelligent, down-to-earth and focused on their mission. | |
