the violence and cuteness of sea otters, lyrics to the background song you probably don't even notice, spectating everyone else's lives, the geography of "punxsutawney", and life itself as a series of mundane activities... #groundhogday minute 31.

local psychiatrist is new at his job and so excited about it; meanwhile, phil turns to alcohol and nostalgia in #groundhogday minute 30.

phil is a dick to strangers, rita (apparently) loves awkward van rides, and the local neuorlogist is bad at his job in #groundhogday minute 29.

who's in the diner right now, get sidetracked by an unavailable deleted scene, then there's a great acting beat from andie, great lines from gus, and phil really should note how like the groundhog he is... #groundhogday minute 28.

in a fairly basic #groundhogday minute 27, phil rushes to gobbler's knob, pushing past ned ryerson, skips his report, and i get into a rant about running and imdb goofs.

minute 26 of #groundhogday is relatively simple, but this episode gets into the weeds, with input from Rubin, Ramis, Tobolowsky, and me as to whether or not a particular scene was actually shot.

phil can't handle his second report--and neither can larry--there's still no hot water, and telephone company customer service wins by hanging up in #groundhogday minute 25.

phil's going through it and rita is a hands-on producer in #groundhogday minute 24.
