According to the Lost Media Wiki, there was a Sam and Friends segment similar to "That Old Black Magic", with Sam and a bewigged Kermit singing a duet, but instead of "That Old Black Magic", they lip-synched to an Etta James recording of "At Last". It also had a similar ending revealing that they were inside a TV set; however, this time, Yorick and Harry aren't there to watch. Apparently this clip was shown in an unknown documentary. Is this really true? Is such a segment documented in the Sam and Friends book? Buzzfan120 (talk) 18:07, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm not going to trust information on Muppet-related things from sites like that, especially when they don't cite sources for it. If this was used in "some documentary," then the footage would exist and would have been exploited for Craig Shemin's book. I don't know what documentary they are thinking of, but there's a clip of Jim and Jane performing the routine on Today or some other show. So, the clip likely is of that and "At Last" might be been used as part of a montage. - Shane latest?cb=20200820192427 (talk) 18:29, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
There's no mention of it in the Sam and Friends book, so yeah, very likely false. — Jon latest?cb=20200820192427 (talk) 18:39, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
I was a little skeptical, too, since there wasn't a citation for that tidbit, so that's why I decided to ask you guys. Thanks for your help! Buzzfan120 (talk) 18:44, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
