In the 80's there was a ghostbusters cartoon that riped off the movie Ghostbusters,?

Question

I'm not talking about the cartoon called "The Real Ghostbusters". Anyone know the name, I'm trying to find it on youtube.

Answer 1

After the success of the film, a TV series based on the Ghostbusters began production. At the same time The Real Ghostbusters was being created, Filmation was making a cartoon known as The Original Ghostbusters, which was a revamp of Filmation's 1970s show/concept, The Ghost Busters. (Note that this show's title is written as two words, whereas the 1984 movie's title is usually written as one word). Despite rumors to the contrary, Columbia was allowed to use the name Ghostbusters for its cartoon but added "The Real" to snub Filmation.

With character designs by Jim McDermott, the animated characters were dramatically redesigned from the way the same characters looked in the movie due to likeness-rights issues.

Answer 2

It really was the Ghostbusters. The Real Ghostbusters was on other channels. I think Ghostbusters was a YTV thing.

Answer 3

......Hmmmm I'm thinking its the other way arond and the original was Casper.
