Samantha What?
While the series was given a thirteen episode order in 2007 the original name, Sam I Am was in conflict with the Dr. Seuss estate. While trying to rename the show, promos for the series played without showing a title to the show. The idea in the promos was to show Applegate's character in a full state of amnesia, not even remembering the name of the show. ABC eventually came up the title Samantha Who? before the show premiered.
