    The first season of SCTV was the best. I believe it was the only season Harold Ramis was a cast member…

    He made classic comedies. I didn’t realize he was involved in so many. Caddyshack is a favorite but I didn’t know he was behind that one

    I first got introduced to Harold Ramis watching a bio of “Caddy Shack” (finally watched the movie) and found him to be a very intelligent guy, which is a rarity in Hollywood.

    Cool tribute.

    I thought Ghostbusters was a great movie movie. Sad that he passed away.

    Excellent work Bearman & a nice tribute. He was one funny guy. 1944??? I remember him as a young man in Ghost Busters & didn’t realise he was that old.

    Egon: Don’t cross the streams

    Why?

    Egon: It would be bad.

    Venkman: I’m fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, “bad”?

    Egon: Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

    This was an amazing tribute Bearman!

    I was sadden when I heard this. We have lost a comedic genius. Amazing how much he influenced our culture and comedy.

    He had a small cameo in As Good As It Gets as the doctor helping Helen Hunt’s character. Even in small roles he had presence. RIP.

      I forgot about that one.

  23. Nate Fakes Avatar

    I had no idea how many movies this guy did until he died. Pretty impressive! RIP

    1. Bearman Cartoons Avatar

      Just remember how many cartoons I have done before I die

    Nice work, Bearman.

    And he also provides one of my favorite performances in the movie “Orange County.” I think that movie would have been another forgettable film if not for Ramis’ commitment to an incredibly goofy bit and Kevin Kline providing a little quiet dignity.

    Well, okay — that and Jack Black’s delivery of, “Do you want me to get naked and start the revolution?”
