Could a Groundhog Day TV series be in the works?

  • Stephen Tobolowsky, who co-starred in Bill Murray's iconic 1993 film, said on The Production Meeting podcast that he was pulled aside while working on the Sony Studios lot filming ABC's Schooled and asked about potentially reprising his role as Ned Ryerson. “There’s talk about a Groundhog Day series in the works,” he said. “One of the producers – I was working on The Goldbergs or (the spin-off series) Schooled, one of those shows over on the Sony lot, and one of the producers saw me and goes, ‘Oh, Stephen! Stephen! We’re working on a Groundhog Day TV show. Could you be Ned for the TV show?’ I go, ‘Sure. Yeah. No problem.’…But it’s Ned thirty years later. What has his life become?”
