Definitely!  Have you seen "What about Bob?"?  It's the film he worked on just
before Groundhog.  By Frank Oz and with Richard Dreyfuss playing Bill's
psychiatrist.  Very fun movie as well. :D

seems Spielberg liked Murray's performance so much that started a campaign to
get him an Oscar nomination...

BTW, Murray is also the voice of Garfield in the movies...

you can't go wrong with Dr. Pete Venckman or Garfield! :))

They're more curves than angles, methinks.

Seriously? The second one sort of sucked, but the original was great!

How could you not love a character that would say this:

"Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria."

I mean, come on :) where's the love?

Garfield went very wrong; very, very wrong.

The second one *did* suck.

The first one was pretty neat - just not because of that particular 
character.

How about: "Morons!  Your bus is leaving!" :)

I find it hard to believe someone has issues with such cynical but loveable
characters Murray come up with.  Many of his lines are improvised, BTW...
