Have they ever rerun the Bill Murrey episode?


I only saw it on it's original run. It was an hour long episode (i think) and when it went into sydication a few episodes were never reran. that was one of them. Was it ever shown in any sydication?

USA network reran it in the early 90s.

I saw it on Nick at Nite or TV Land several years ago. I don't remember it being an hour though. I liked his character and I wished someone had told Muffy to shut her pie-hole about Murray's teacher.


Sorry, after seeing the other replies, now I remember-it was USA.

...and here we are, years later, and it's up on Hulu. I might see it later, but when this show was out I was probably about 7 or 8 years old, so I didn't get most of the humor back then, I just remember watching it.

I didn't really care for this episode. I love Bill Murray and he was his regular wacky self in it but the show changed itself to fit him rather than having him fit into the show. The regular characters were less of a focal point and as a result it just didn't feel like a Square Pegs episode at all.

BTW I saw it on Hulu also- man am I glad to have that. I watched all the Welcome Back, Kotter episodes they had and more- I missed those shows! After watching them I plan to buy some of the seasons on DVD so attention fat cats: playing shows for free can be lucrative stuff.

I think he did the episode as a favor. Remember, the creator of the show worked on SNL with him.

It's on the DVD

That episode just ended minutes ago on the "Decades" network. I get it on broadcast TV near Denver.
