If you've ever watched the 1993 comedy classic Groundhog Day and thought "That looks like fun," you're going to have a good holiday. From TV channels with a sense of humor to niche movie theaters, there are plenty of ways to marathon this marathon movie on Groundhog Day.

Comedy Central starts airing the Harold Ramis and Bill Murray film at 11:21 A.M. ET on the dot -- set your Sunny and Cher alarm now -- followed by three more back-to-back airings. If that doesn't fit your schedule, there's always the DIY option via Amazon, Google Play or YouTube.

Midwestern movie theaters have also joined in the fun. For the fourth year in a row, the Gateway Film Center in Ohio is showing the movie on a loop. Students at Indiana University can also spend a full day "studying" this film and even win a t-shirt or ticket voucher in the process.

In the U.K., Sky Movies Comedy had -- the same idea, but went for the full 24 hour loop with a whopping 13 showings of the film.

Liverpool's Small Cinema started marathoning the film at 6 A.M. GMT, and will begin new screenings every two hours for 24 hours. It's complete with custom t-shirts and screening packages that range from "Twilight Hog" (6 A.M. to 4 P.M.) to "Whole Hog" (all day, plus a sandwich and a cup of tea).
