  • Said in an interview that his working relationship with actor 'Bill Murray (I)' (qv) ended while filming _Groundhog Day (1993)_ (qv) due to differing views on what the film should be about (Murray wanted it to be more philosophical, Ramis wanted it to be a comedy). Ramis also cites that Murray's real life personal problems at the time (specifically the ending of his first marriage) was having a ripple effect on his behavior at work as another factor in the unfortunate ending of their working relationship.
  • Best remembered to fans of all ages as Egon in _Ghost Busters (1984)_ (qv) and _Ghostbusters II (1989)_ (qv).
  • Sketch comedian best known for his character Moe Green on SCTV.
