The good folks at PBS Digital animated a fun chat between with Bill Murray  and Irish America writer T.J. English all the way back from 1988 for their web series Blank on Blank.

As you can imagine, seeing an animated Murray is only scratching the surface of how much of a character he is, but when we can’t see what crazy get up he’s dressed in, this cartoon Bill Murray by Patrick Smith is a very good substitute.

Watch it here.

The wonderful Sklar Brothers will be doing 20 episodes of “You’re Doing It Wrong” on PBS Digital that investigates everyday activities and how most of us are just doing it, per the title, all wrong and taking it all for granted.

Perhaps, it’ll be PBS Digital’s version of National Geographic’s Going Deep With David Rees, but done Sklarbro style.
