Umm...

Random question, flisties:

I recently watched something, a TV show or a movie, in which the characters have a conversation about the movie Groundhog Day. (Which is totally an awesome movie, by the way.) They talk about how Phil wakes up every day on Groundhog Day, and he tries everything he can think of to break the cycle, and then finally one day he gets out of the loop. I know the question is posed, what does Phil do different on that last day to get out of the loop?

Now, I can remember neither the show/movie this came from, or the way they answer the question. I can't tell which one I want to know more. It's killing me. Ring any bells?

Anyone?

Wait, is it the Attic episode of Dollhouse, when Echo is talking to someone I won't mention in case you haven't gotten to that episode yet, about the things that happen in the Attic that I won't mention in case you haven't gotten to that episode yet?

Hmm, that does seem kinda plausible. I will have to check as soon as I check Modern Family. sol_se says both her and her family think it's Modern Family, sometime in the last three eps. It sounds promising.

Haven't watched Modern Family, but it's very possible. The more I think about it, the more I think that the metaphor has been used many times over. It's just so applicable to so many film/tv moments that it would be surprising had it NOT been used multiple times.
