It came on in like 1986 and was pretty short lived. It featured a talking ape named Tracey :cool: Like I know one person that's heard of this show. I loved it when I was a kid.

I used to mark out for that scene where they would transform into Ghostbusters and shit. It was eathier the show's opening or it was like during the middle of the show. I can't remember.

Yeah, I remember it. It was pretty shit. They shot bubblegum or some shit at the ghosts.

Loose Cannon

wait, now that I think about it, I don't think the ape talked. He just made ape noises.

It's why the actual Ghostbusters movie spinoff cartoon was called "The Real Ghostbusters".

ROFL YES. Someone else remembers :love: Whenever I mention this to people they have no clue what I'm talking about. They're like "An ape helping the Ghostbusters?"

Yup. After a legal battle over trademark, they just popped on "Real" to change it.

The show wasn't that short lived, considering most cartoons of the day DIDN'T really run for more than a couple of seasons. The ape talked, but not often, and nothing more than Scooby Doo-esque lines. The car, however, did.

yeah, i remember this cartoon. I havent seen it since i was a kid, but it was pretty cool at the time I thought. I had alll the action figures and the cars. I wonder what happened to them.

Boondock Saint

Needs a DVD release.

As does the other cartoon.

Kane Knight

10-19-2005, 12:06 PM

The REAL Ghostbusters would be cool to have on TV.

It's funny. I remember episodes of each where they took shots at each other.

Kane Knight

10-19-2005, 12:07 PM

DVD, not TV.

Loose Cannon

10-19-2005, 12:11 PM

my favorite episode of that version of Ghostbusters was the one where they went into this parallel universe and there were evil versions of the Ghostbusters. And the episode consisted of the evil ones capturing the Real ones using some green slime. I think Peter was the only one who didn't get caught and he saved the day or something.

But the Real Ghostbusters is still the best.

Prime Evil.

Kane Knight

10-19-2005, 10:56 PM

The main three were Jake (The Blonde) Tracey (The ape) And Eddie (The other guy), right?

What was the car called?

HeartBreakMan2k

10-19-2005, 10:58 PM

Prime Evil.

That was the one. Prime Evil and Mysteria (I THINK) are the only two I remember. But I may be mixing up.

Another show I never got on TV, but I got a comics series or something. Not to mention I thought it was awesome at the time. I'd probably be embarrassed if I watched it now...
