By the way,the 1984 Bill Murray,Dan Ackroyd version doesn't even compare to this piece of Saturday Morning dung that ran for more than a year on CBS-TV(from 1975-1976) and was produced by the same company that brought you the live-action fiascos "Shazam",and "Isis",and was better known for its lame and hell cartoons too,"The New Adventures Of Gilligan","My Favorite Martians",and "Lassie's Rescue Rangers",and others to name a few. The company that produced this show and others was known as the WORST animation studio in the world-Filmation Productions!!! Oh yes,"Ghostbusters" was just as lame as it came,and again I'm not talking about the Bill Murray,Dan Ackroyd,Harold Ramis version from the 1980's,but the lame mid-1970's version which starred Forrest Tucker and Larry Storch,better known for their antics from the mid-1960's TV series "F-Troop",as ghost hunters along with their pet gorilla named Tracy(yes whoever said that was a real monkey,they were sick,but we kids of the 70's knew it was a man in a gorilla suit,and it was too)taking on the supernatural,but in a unfunny sort of way that was suppose to be appealing to children,but let's face it,children weren't buying it,but in some of the segments the chemistry that Tucker and Storch had was brilliant,but it couldn't save this series which CBS-TV pull the plug of a lot of Saturday Morning silliness by the summer of 1976,and the network did the same with other shows of that era too including "Far Out Space Nuts",and also a show entitled "Wacko",not to mention "The Harlem Globetrotters Show",which was a live-action show that featured the globetrotters and Rodney Allen Rippy,and also "The Hudson Brothers Razzle-Dazzle Show",and not to mention a 15-minute news program called In The News with Christopher Glenn and Dan Rather were also gone by the summer of that same year,1976. As for the series itself,it was just that,the worst of the worst of a example of shows produced by Filmation Productions.
