Notes
Trivia: 'Danny Rubin' and 'Harold Ramis' both said that they avoided exploring the truly dark side of Phil's time lapsing in which he could do truly horrible things without consequence (ie. murder, torture, etc.) (more)

Goofs: Revealing mistakes: When the pickup plunges over the edge of the quarry, it is clear no one is inside the cab. (more)

Quotes:
[first lines]
Phil: Somebody asked me today, "Phil, if you could be anywhere in the world, where would you like to be?" And I said to him, "Prob'ly right here - Elko, Nevada, our nation's high at 79 today." Out in California, they're gonna have some warm weather tomorrow, gang wars, and some *very* overpriced real estate. Up in the Pacific Northwest, as you can see, they're gonna have some very, very tall trees.
