Sam's comedic track record

Sam is usually quick with funny comebacks. Just two days ago, he was joking around with GMA anchor Robin Roberts.

When talking about a few summer must-haves during the summer solstice, Roberts said: "You've been talking about like the hats, and you know the cocoa butter, but you haven't mentioned the speedo."

The panel laughed along.

"Well, Robin, it is part of the very typical summer solstice kit," Sam joked.

"And it is a gold lamé one," he added.

The jokes got even better on Twitter.

"@RobinRoberts went there," one user tweeted with an embarrassed emoji.

"Yes, I went there but Sam took it to another level!! Per usual!" Robin tweeted back.

Sam responded to the user with his summer solstice checklist, including emoji checkmarks between items.

"Basic #SummerSolstice kit: bongos, grass skirt, coconut hat, pineapple drink cocoa butter, gold lamé speedo."

Sam's back!?

Sam is back at GMA while the show's current chief meteorologist Ginger Zee has been off-air since Monday.

Other fans were also excited to have Sam back after he left in 2012.

One Twitter user wrote: "Doing @GMA again today Sam? I #LoveIt when you're standing in for @Ginger_Zee !"
