What always amazed me what he wasn't a primary actor. His skills were so distributed yet so strong. Has anybody portrayed a nerd as well as he did with Egon?
I remember reading years ago that Ramis and Murray had not talked for almost 20 years due to bickering on their last collaboration and their estrangement really bothered me. It's a shame they did not see each other again until it was almost too late.
Yes, only in the early seasons in Toronto (which were produced by Global).

Harold did a ton of the sketch writing in the early days of SCTV. His Mo Green character is one of my favourite things ever.
If I remember his character was kidnapped by a terrorist group and demand a $2000.00 ransom to be paid for his release. Guy Cabellarro deemed that as exorbinant and Mo was replaced by Edith Brickley.

Yeah, that was all caused by Ground Hog Day, Bill Murray wanted it to be a completely different movie, he wanted it to be a lot more serious and dramatic. Ramis wanted it to be a comedy and won the battle.
