is it just me, or did Sam...

...limp? not sure I noticed it all the time, but I notice Sam didn't do a lot of running, or as much physical action as the other characters...and I don't know if "Sam" limped, or if Bruce Campbell limps (this is the only thing I've ever seen him in)

if there's an explanation of this in The Fall of Sam Axe, please just say that, but don't spoil it, because I haven't seen that yet

thanks

watching back through, I have some specific episodes where I noticed this:
season 2, episode 2, "Turn and Burn" (pretty much every time you see Sam walking)
season 2, episode 4, "Comrades" (when he's in the brown suit)
here's a clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ_2GzKDVwg&feature=player_detailpage#t=297

There are some episodes where the characters jump from high spaces and land funny and may run/walk it off, but I don't think he has a permanent limp. I doubt he he would have made it as a Navy Seal with a limp, and there's no mention of him having a limp after, as far as I recall. Also, nothing in the Fall of Sam Axe either re a limp.

it's not after a jump, that, I'd have excused (and Sam would gripe about that occasionally) I've noticed it randomly, in scenes where he's just walking from here to there...I guess it's possible that - not knowing the shooting schedule re scenes where I've noticed a limp, and ones where he had to 'land' after a fall/jump, where he may have actually tweaked his ankle(s) - I guess it's possible that's the cause

There are some scenes where he goes to aqua aerobics and such with Maddie, and afterwards he's shown nursing a sore muscle.

You should watch Bruce Campbell in Army of Darkness, not only was he hot there, he was a complete badass with fantastic one liners!

Just about anything BC says becomes a great one liner.

Alien Appocalypse is an example of a chessy B movie but BC delivers some great one liners.
