Sam Griffin

Younger brother of Sandi Griffin, older than Chris and with dark brown hair. Described in The Daria Database as: "12 student, brat. Never outgrew the "terrible twos."  Likes to pound his brother, kick walls and fill the house with water.  Plans to someday marry Quinn."

In every appearance, Sam is an uncontrollable, spoiled jerk who enjoys making his sister suffer (including leaving her outside to freeze in "Daria Dance Party"), mouthing off to people, and having fights with Chris. In "Fair Enough", he and Sam enjoyed physically assaulting people at random, and "Dance Party" shows a younger Chris and Sam destroying their sister's creations for the sheer delight of it.

In contrast, he's very nice to Quinn in "Gifted".

Linda Griffin and Tom Griffin never really bother to do anything, beyond a feeble "uh, kids, come back here" from Tom in "Fair Enough". (In "Dance Party", Linda looks somewhat amused by Sandi's predicament.)
