Filmation
Ghostbusters
Filmation Ghostbusters is about Jake Kong, Eddie Spencer and Tracy the Gorilla. Jake and Eddie Jr are the sons of the original Ghost Busters from the live action series of the same name; Tracy worked with their fathers.
Their headquarters, termed Ghost Command, is located in a haunted mansion nestled between a number of tall skyscrapers
They are supported by a number of secondary characters including Ansa-Bone, a talking skull phone; Skelevision, a talking skeleton television; Belfrey, a pink talking bat; and Ghost Buggy, their talking ghost car.
They occasionally enlist the aid of Futura, a time travelling Ghostbuster from the future, and Jessica, a local tv news reporter.
Together, they have dedicated themselves to ridding the world of the evil ghost wizard Prime Evil and his cast of henchmen.
Prime Evil's headquarters, termed Hauntquarters is located in The Fifth Dimension.
Famous guest-star ghosts that appeared on the show include Count Dracula and the Headless Horseman.
Like almost all 1980s Filmation cartoons, each episode closes with Skelevision explaining a particular lesson that can be learned from the events that went on during the episode.
From time to time, Jake, Eddie Jr or another good character would talk with Skelevison about the lesson.
Also some versions would not have Skelevision.
While The Real Ghostbusters had the catchphrase, "Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters!", each episode of Filmation Ghostbusters also used a catchphrase: "Let's Go, Ghost Busters!"
It's been a blast getting to see this show again. I haven't seen these episodes since I was a kid. I did prefer Real Ghostbusters, but Filmation GB was a pretty close second. Some of the shows don't hold up that well but it still has a fun vibe and great characters like Primeval.
