I met Harold standing in line for tickets at Disney World. He was with Erika and his kids and I didn't want to intrude. But Erika could tell I had recognized him. I just mouthed to her that I loved Groundhog Day. She mouthed back, "Tell him!" I shook my head but she urged me on. So when he turned around and noticed me whispering with Erika I said to him, "I just wanted to say I'm a big fan of your films, especially Groundhog Day." He smiled and looked incredibly shy and a bit embarrassed, and just said "Oh thank you." He was genuinely surprised, gracious and humble, as though he couldn't believe me. He then turned around to get his tickets and Erika looked at me and gave me the thumbs up and whispered to me "No one ever tells him!" Well in the video above it looks like everyone told him Erika. You made my day and Harold made every person who saw Groundhog Day very happy. Every movie fan who ever saw a 6AM alarm clock thinks of him.
Such a nice story. Thanks for tell us.
What a wonderful story, thank you for sharing! It made me love Harold and his work just a bit more. ;o)
Jesus loves you, turn to Him
So nice to see how Bill loves and respects so much his older brother Brian.
Bryan looks like the monopoly guy here! 🎩❤

Just magical. Groundhog Day is a film that you can watch 100 times and at each viewing you see another element of the film being exposed. It seems like a silly trivial film but it has a very deep human life story weaved into it. The film extended the saying "It's a Groundhog Day" into a phrase used all around the world.
Experiencing Groundhog Day over and over and over you say?
The day after tomorrow
We have that saying too in Germany. We say "und täglich grüßt das Murmeltier!" (that's also the german name of the movie!) It means: "... and everyday, the groundhog is greeting!" Every German knows that saying! :)
And you don't even know about the esoteric stuff in it.
These loserferians love to gobble knobs
I seen gremlins a few times and always missed when gremlin cut phone line and said phone home another Spielberg movie.❤
I lived in Woodstock IL from 1997-2003, well after the movie was made. One Groundhog Day, Harold Ramis came back for the local celebration. He walked us all around the town square and talked about shooting the production in those sites: the deep puddle, the bank, the cafe, everything. It was a wonderful experience to hear the insider view of the movie, from Harold himself. Thank you for honoring him.
That's a once in a lifetime experience
That’s incredible.
You can tell how much Bill misses Harold & perhaps even see the regret he has that the feud lasted so long & missing out on years of friendship before his passing. Happy to know that they we able to reconcile before Harold left us.
The fact is none of us is innocent when it comes to feuding with friends and family and plenty of people have stopped talking to friends and family over several things in their lives. We all feel like, even if it's in the back of our heads, that there's always more time but when that time runs out, we realize how much time we have wasted. I don't see Bill as a bad guy, neither Harold, they are human. We all are. It makes me happy that they did reconcile before the end and I think that Bill really misses Harold. I think he missed him even when they weren't talking and of course he misses him even now. They had so many amazing times together and that doesn't just go away with a feud. The people we meet in our lives have an everlasting effect on our hearts, especially friends and family. I'm just a dude on the internet, so I can't really speak for Bill, but I don't think I'm off the mark here.
@@creativeguy1138That was beautifully said and extremely profound
Sometimes the hardest part between a personal feud is when both sides are past the anger but don’t know how to reconcile or too afraid to reach out. So much time can be lost in that void of what-ifs.
Sometimes it's less about caring about others and more about himself because bill has always been a joker and I think he always felt Harold would be around forever to entertain his antics but now he's gone and bills older and less relatable relatively to the younger crowd he's become a little lonely and dour it seems.
Yea he has those regrets. They made there peace at the end.
Every Groundhog day, I watch this classic. Every time I do I see something a little different. God Bless you Harold.
Same. I also laugh at Murray taking the cold shower.
I wonder if Nancy still makes noises like a chipmunk when she gets real excited. Lol
Nancy aged beautifully!
"HEY!"
"Nancy?!! Nancy Taylor?!!" She's still a babe who probably makes chipmunk sounds when she's really excited.
She dated Newman, he ended it
😂
@@kirkjamison4520Were you there? 😆
“Kiss me…..”
@@devadedo”…. I can’t….”
This was wonderful! I loved getting to hear from Harold's wife. And the recorded greeting from Stephen Tobolowski was so beautiful it made me cry. My only regret is Andie MacDowell wasn't there and didn't send a recorded greeting. She missed being part of something truly special. Thanks to all who arranged this!
My thoughts exactly. Would love to have been there.
Where was she instead?
There's no love lost between Andie MacDowell and Bill Murray. Of course she wasn't there. Not to mention that this is in Chicago (where the Murrays are from). You think she's flying up from the South or L.A. or wherever the hell she lives to....do what exactly? Make some two-second speech at a podium? For free? It's just a movie, guys, it's not the march from Selma to Montgomery, lol.
Way to bring the mood of the room down 9190, I bet you are just a joy to be around.
@@TTM9691March of Selma? Fuck that!
"True love is forever." We were married on Groundhog Day because of this movie.
I love Groundhog Day, but it saddens me when I think about their politics.
Aww that's so sweet and lovely! Happy anniversary!
@@powertuber3.047😂 is that all you ppl are consumed about?
@@shable1436 Programmed by propaganda with a complete inability to step outside of their perspective. They'd be pitiable, if not so dangerous out of their sheer ignorance of the true human condition. It's a movie about love, and they only see division.
@powertuber why would you bring politics into comedy... insert dirty word here for you 3.047
Amazing that a character so memorable in the film is only known as "man in the hallway".
It could have been worse...they could have titled his part pork chop!!!
Groundhog Day is one of the most brilliant and funniest movies ever made! This was fantastic to watch!
Thank You NBC for uploading this in it's entirety. Could not find it anywhere until now.
@@freewheelburning8834True...
@@freewheelburning8834 ?!
We've finally lived to the age when Bill Murray appreciates his past roles and movies
They drugged him up with Thorazine prior to the event
Yeah nah.....he's still an irritant to people trying to market his work.
@@StefanMichaels-ut9jgwhy are you being like this?
@@StefanMichaels-ut9jgJealous much lol.
@@wellokayyes1266 It's a joke from Ghostbusters, dude.
I grew up in the late 80's and 90's. I grew up watching these guys in Ghostbusters, Wayne's World, Groundhog Day...
Me too, born in 1980. You listed 3 classic favorites of mine too!❤
Brians voice sounds as amazing as ever.
Yes, especially when he told the Griswolds he was toying with eliminating the Christmas bonuses. Lol. What a memorable voice! 😢😂
He may look & move differently due to the passage of time, but I was happily moved to hear that strong gruff bellowing Chicago voice.
He'll always be Noah from Wayne's World to me!!!❤❤❤ As a young person I was completely obsessed with that movie. I had a friend that whenever she spent the night we'd watch it at LEAST 3 times.
I can't believe I never knew that was Bill's brother! (If I did, I forgot. To be fair I had a traumatic brain injury in 2022 and almost was never myself again, luckily after a couple weeks I returned, and was hospitalized for a month!)
@@Sindollx666x I hope you're 100% now! 🙏
Groundhog Day was the first movie I ever purchased on DVD. Instant classic! Harold's movies are fantastic.
A schlemiel is somebody who often spills his soup and a schlimazel is the person it lands on.
I love this.
What’s Hasenpfeffer Incorporated though? 🤔 😊
Right? Both Laverne and Shirley have passed, and we STILL wanna know!@@skilletman16
This was great!!! Ned’s speech was EXCEPTIONAL!! 21:27
My first official date with my now wife of soon 30 years, was at the Carousel cinemas in Western Australia to see ‘Groundhog Day’. Being living that day every day for last 30 years ❤😂
Groundhog Day remains one of my favorite movies of all time. Thanks for posting this tribute to the movie, Harold Ramis, Brian Doyle Murray and “this guy” Bill Murray and all the rest.
I didn't expect to watch the whole thing, but here I am. Man, it's been so long since I've seen Brian Doyle Murray, he looks unrecognizable here. I'm glad they honored Harold throughout.
He’s 78
I recognized him instantly.
same on both counts
Good to see Bill smile without it being in the script.
Bill still has his signature un enthused look. Hes such an awesome person. His sense of humour is has been right up my alley. Im glad he’s still kicking strong. And still shows up to events and makes appearances, and shows his fans he’s still got it. The speeches here are great, about Groundhog Day and reunion of the film and more. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks, Chris Elliott (Larry) and Stephen Tobolowski (Ned ? Ned Ryerson ?) for sending recorded messages, both were funny and heartfelt.
They were my favourite characters. 😁
Needle Nose Ned?? ....Ned The Head??
Wish Andie would've participated.
@@Sindollx666x So do I.
Bill did a great job also crediting not just Harold but the screenwriter for a great screenplay.
Shocking
We watch Groundhog Day every year. It's truly a blessing to have such a wonderful film to enjoy every year. Rest in peace Harold Ramos. 🙏😀
It's strange how you can enjoy a movie when you are young, but never realize just how much joy it brought to your life years later. God bless these folks.
Groundhog Day is a classic
Back when movies were still thoughtful, funny and entertaining.
I watched the Groundhog Day movie so many times, i know every word by heart. I would never miss watching it every February 2.
This is so down to earth! This is the entertainment I like.The true appreciation of the works of love and comedy!
Damn Brian-Doyle still got it reading the scroll.
I love “Groundhog Day”! 👍
"Featuring Harold Ramis as The Beaver" - great comedy chops and a great comedy director.He is sorely missed by his friends and the viewing public.
I saw this movie in 1993 in a movie theater. After the first day in I caught on to its premise and couldn't stop laughing from that point on. One of the most brilliant films I have ever seen. Bill was perfect in his role and the entire cast were magnificant.
I watch Groundhog Day every year! It's still such a great movie! Bill Murray is a legend!
Bill and Brian have such great iconic voices
Glad Bill and Harold DID settle things before he passed... just wish it hadn't taken so long.
I love Chicagoans. We always remember our kind of Town, Chicago!
My favorite part is - the entire film. Actually the Giant Alarm clock time changing to 6:00! Drinking the coffee out of the pot, dressing like Clint Eastwood, robbing the armored truck....
He looks out the window and it's already light out. The Sun doesn't come up until 7:30 or so on Feb 2.
You said it. Too many amazing scenes to even list.
Bill moving the microphone for his brother was sweet.
I didn’t know I needed this. My birthday is the 2nd and spent it alone again but this made me warm and is lovely to see the family this cast and crew have built and maintained. Yes, true love is real! Kudos to Harold for bringing this wonderful group of folks together. Cheers!
We should all have friends and a partner, please don't spend time alone all the time❤
Happy Birthday!
Happy Belated Birthday 🎉
Thanks so much for the birthday wishes and kind words. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and prosperous 2024. Cheers!
@@The_Triangulator No problem bro! Please surround yourself with 3 new people at least, find a good one's, don't be afraid, we all love a good hug, do it man!
"We found our Ned Ryerson. He's the most obnoxious person I've ever met in my life."
Ned in that new Lay’s commercial is awesome. 😂
Ned,?...Ned Ryerson? is that you?
Well that’s a doosy
Bing!
Stephen Tobolosky sang in a band called a cast of thousands, it's on RUclips, guess who played lead guitar? Stevie Ray Vaughan at 14 yrs old. His first studio recording
Thank you SO much for having and sharing this awesome day. RIP, Mr. Ramis, you gave us all such wonderful memories. Bless your ever-lasting soul.
Saw it in 93.Saw it in 24.Still great film.
I am absolutely honored to be able to watch this for 1st time..such a nostalgic event and perfect time to honor the alway great Harold Ramos🎉🎉🎉
Kudos to Chicago Harry for making the bit funnier by actually emerging reluctantly! What a well-spent half hour that was.
We did the Groundhog Day / Edge of Tomorrow double feature this weekend. Both great films with a LOT of parallels beyond the obvious.
So glad to see GD and the work of Harold Ramis being remembered and honored. What a great tribute to Mr. Ramis! May he R.I.P.
So great to see these guys still around. This was a pleasure to watch.
Nice to see this. Was lucky to fill in crew on Harold's very last assignment on "The Office". AND way before an extra in "Groundhog Day". Miss that whole comedy era he helped create. What a nice day at Navy Pier. Makes me miss it.
I have a great fun fact for anyone that likes Stevie Ray Vaughan. The actor who played Ned Ryerson, Stephen Tobolosky went to school at oak Cliff, the same as SRV, anyways, Stephen was in a band called a cast of thousands, so they made a record for the high school, they didn't have a lead guitar player, so they asked little 14 yr old SRV to play in the studio with them. It would be his first ever recording in a studio, and can be found on RUclips.
In loving memory of Harold Ramis
Thank you for posting this!
I had to watch it again yesterday. LOVE Bill Murray❣️
Such a sweet guy & a great comedian & actor! God bless Bill Murray❣️🤗✝️❤️
P.S. Then I watched "What About Bob?" 😁
Baby steps get on a bus, AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@phoenixman8569 'I'm sailing!! i'm a sailor!!'
I have to say that I have actually modeled much of my life after this silly, but surprisingly deep movie, created by genius, Harold Ramis. Whether I arrive in a new town or bump into someone who could use a positive word, the lessons I learned from Groundhog's Day have helped me bring cheer and hope to others. Humility, hard work, compassion, and even perfect timing are all things we should practice for the betterment of humanity. God bless Harold Ramis and the cast of Groundhog's Day!
The Movie stood the test of time and is simply absolutely masterfully made from the beginning to the end. There is a lot of warmth and sweetness in it and everyone who worked on it helped to elevate a cute story to something WAY bigger. And i'm sure Harold would be proud to see this movie still being cherished and appreciated this much not only by the original fans who saw it when it came out and helped it making a cult classic but also the all new generation who recently discovered it and love it just as much. And i do miss Harold a lot. Someone who gave all of us so much joys and laughter and who never forgot his roots and never lost contact to "ground base" so to speak :) This movie still is super popular here in Germany as well, thanks to the amazing translation & dub that was very faithful to the original. 🙂 Thank you all for this wonderful 30th anniversary tribute. All of you behind the camera, in front of the camera and here in the comment section. This love absolutely brings us all together in the most amazing way possible.
What a lovely comment!❤
Kraftwerk is cool too, I had the pleasure of seeing them live here in Seattle in the early 2000s.
@@Sindollx666x Lucky you. I was never able to get any tickets for their shows. But i would personally rather have loved to see them live in the early 80s during their Computerwelt Tour.
Thank you, Harold. ❤ The love in your work is a gift that keeps on giving around the world.
So nice to see such a dedication to what is truely a monumental movie and one I've seen so many times. A true classic.
Credit to Bill for standing up that whole time! Good man
Is he disabled?
What a wonderful ceremony. I hope they do it again. At 6:00am.
How wonderful!!!! Absolutely LOVE this movie and watch it over and over!!!
It's actually an incredible movie and gets better the more times you see it as some of the comedy is very quick witted and moves very fast and elegant and can be hard to catch between the broadsides. Ramis was a genius and Murray did a great job sometimes channeling Buster Keaton in a varied and calibrated performance, probably one of his best.
OMG! This is so amazing, sharing all the memories, bringing people together, this is wonderful, love it!!! I love Groundhog day big time! Thank you so much NBC CHICAGO for sharing this get together and of course to all the people who made this possible.
I will celebrate this day from now on in my hometown from this day on. I added it to my calender. Happy Harrold Ramis Day/Groundhog Day to all from here in Scandinavia.
'Man in the Hall way' 😂
"Off to see the Groundhog?"
Amazing.
Thanks too all who could attend and to those who couldn't 😢
My all time favorite movie. Went to see this on a date having no idea what it was about. Amazing seeing these guys together again.
lovely. had a tear in my eye. such a lovely film with a lovely cast crew and director. my favourite film. I've watched it many many times. each time loving it more. as perfect as a film as you can get. 👍
Bill is such a humble person. A national treasure.
Try to tell Geena Davis that.
Bill Murray is allegedly a jerk
Not sure about that, but 1) it's difficult to be so famous/"beloved" and truly be humble and 2) Murray did put to bed, apparently, his feud with Ramis (though maybe they made up before Harold's way-too-early death--I hope so).
It's crazy how may times I have seen this movie. One of the few "annual" movies you can't help but get caught up into and watch to the end.
This is amazing. Thank you for sharing
Wonderful presentation for a wonderful man.
This is ridiculously cool. Brian and Bill together, Mrs. Ramis...very nice!
This is so sweet. What a special film it was, and you can just feel what a special experience everyone had making it, and of course, what a special man Harold Ramis must have been, that all these people made the trip and did this.
This was so beautiful! I didn't experience the movie as a child, but watching it as an adult about ten years ago, it was like finding a treasure (and fittingly, like time travel!).
One of the most fun and heartwarming movies ever! Congratulations to everyone involved ♥
LOVE the movie!! Just watched it yesterday!!!!!
Bill Murray’s like: “Oh sh!t! It’s happening again.”😂
What a freaking treat to see all these actors who played a part in one of the truly timeless classic comedies that I personally enjoy watching once every year with complete delight. Never gets old to me. I love Phil’s transformation from self-centered prick to a humble, loving and selfless man.
Love Mr. Ramis' movies! ( Thank you for posting the entire duration )
Such a lovely tribute and a nice reunion as well. 😊
It’s the good hearted people that will live on in a twisted dark world. Let your heart be a guiding light as well!
great movie, lots of special people involved that played a large part of my childhood. cheers!
Man, what a treat to reminisce about a great movie, great cast, and best of all some wonderful memories of watching a hilarious and creative movie.
21:27 Stephen Tobolowsky reprises Phil Conners "hearths and hearts" speech moving everyone with his emotional tribute to Harold Ramis. "Hey, man... you touched me."
I saw the 10 or 12 minute RUclips video of the cast being interviewed and thought it was one of the most clever ways to film a recurring theme in the movie by doing all the takes consecutively. Specifically when he stepped in the ice water pothole. The sky was overcast and to have consistency of the repetition by doing all of the takes of him stepping in the ice water was able to look the same as it did as if it had tepeated a thousand times.
A wonderful tribute to Harold Ramis. I adore the mutual love and admiration between the Murray brothers. It's so sweet to see Doris and the chummy guy in the hallway
Thank you ! Thank you for 30 minutes, a day unlike any other! Warm support from France.
Its True...Stripes, Ghostbusters, Animal House are some of the best films Ever Made. !!!!!
wish andie could have been there
She's selling shampoo & make-up & can't be bothered.
@@PinkyToe 😔even ned ryerson sent in an audio tribute to harold & the movie. his speech was actually the best, so heartfelt
I love how everyone is dressed up and then there’s Bill Murray standing there looking like some guy just stumbled onto the stage.
Thank you so much for posting this! So heartwarming. With laughs and love from Hoboken, NJ!
Amazing!!! Just amazing !! Really choked me up that 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Long live 💖Harold Ramis💖, Long long live Groundhog Day, and long live the Ghostbusters!
A lovely touching gem of a film with great humanity. It always delivers and never tires. They all played their roles to perfection because the casting was spot on.
The movie Groundhog Day is my mothers and my favorite movie. She says she loved it first, but her memory is not what it used to be... ;) The story is an amazing example of how life's journey can be and is an inspiration to strive to make each day a magnificent one. It was great to see the tribute to Harold by his peers, friends, family and the city of Chicago. Thank you for sharing!
Andie is definitely making a statement by not being there and, especially, not even sending a 30-second recorded message. It just makes her look small. She seemed so sweet and kind in the film. Great acting.
She doesn't need these people.
Theres no reason to trash her when you dont know why she didnt attend or tape a message, there are tons of videos on RUclips with her giving interviews on how much she loved working on the film, the cast and how great a person Harold Ramis was.
@@Fred-vy1hm What good reason is there
@@revpgesqredux I can think of lots of reasons for not attending an event halfway across the country, how about doing the same instead of jumping to conclusions on a situation you know nothing about.
@@Fred-vy1hm i asked you to provide one or more good reasons. I am not jumping to conclusions. I am just calling your lame excuse making out...
This is excellent!
Thank you for posting the whole thing. Seems like every other platform made it about Bill Murray when the day was Harold Ramis Day. Loved hearing the stories about the Zen Master.
This is so special proud to be a Chicagoan!
