I loved this cartoon when I was little and also Slimer! and the Real Ghostbusters. I hope they release the Slimer cartoons soon. :-) I bought this DVD for my kids for Christmas and they love, love, love it. When they are allowed to have TV time that is the only thing they want to watch. I would highly recommend this DVD for kids of all ages.

Bring 'em all back! I enjoyed these little Ghostbusters teasers, but like everybody else, I wish they would put out the whole thing. There were 7 seasons with tons of episodes & then later the Extreme Ghostbusters show. They were all funny & very well-written (even the Slimer shows from the later seasons). I'd buy all of them. If that other Ghostbuster show with the monkey is putting their lame stuff on DVD, it's time for the REAL Ghostbusters to do their thing. Box sets for every season, please!
Ghostbusters Season DVD set I want to go ahead and officially start a petition of sorts that demands a season 1 DVD set of The Real Ghostbusters! Give us what we want SONY.
If you also agree and what to help this cause, just comment a response to this or say this review was helpful.
"It would take far too long to explain" The "Real Ghostbusters" DVD releases have been controversial among longtime fans of the show because they are not season boxed sets and contain only one or two of what are considered the best episodes of the series. Some fans have theorized that the best way to increase the likelihood of boxed set releases is to purchase the DVDs that are already out. What of the episodes themselves?
"The Real Ghostbusters -- Spooky Spirits"' weakest episode is its first, "Ghostbuster of the Year", which attempts to curry favor with intelligent children with its "clever" references to classic movies. Unfortunately, "Citizen Kane" was already one of the most referenced and parodied films of all time in 1986, and the ghost in this episode says "Rosebud" often enough that I wanted to strangle him if he said it one more time. The script also manages to make all the Ghostbusters except Winston unlikeable -- which doesn't really do Winston any favors. On the other hand, the final fate of the ghost is rather sweet, and the episode ends with a deliciously obscure "Ghostbusters" in-joke.
"The Revenge of Murray the Mantis" is substantially better, despite its rather low animation quality -- a problem with the majority of "Real Ghostbusters" episodes. The very nice scene where the Ghostbusters discuss the Murray the Mantis TV show is presumably intended as a self-referential acknowledgement of the series' adult viewers, but manages not to hit the viewer over the head with its cleverness. The reappearance of a certain character from the original movie has been criticized online as illogical and unexplained, but is very, very funny -- surely a sufficient justification.
"Drool, the Dog-Faced Goblin" was scripted by Linda Woolverton, who went on to much greater fame as one of the writers of Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" and "The Lion King". Unfortunately, for all you Shakespeareans out there, "Drool, the Dog-Faced Goblin" is to those two classic movies what "The Phoenix and the Turtle" is to "Romeo and Juliet" and "Hamlet". Despite some good lines and touches of characterization, the episode feels weakly constructed and rather pointless. The ending is oddly dark for Saturday morning television, and yet does not seem especially meaningful or artistically necessary -- one has the feeling that Woolverton simply couldn't think of any other way to resolve the story.
"Mr. Sandman, Dream Me a Dream" was written by J. Michael Straczynski, the story editor of the series and the future creator of "Babylon 5". It is probably the best of the four episodes -- certainly it is the most elaborate and rich, perhaps too rich for its own good. The episode is weakened by the villain's absurdly pretentious motivation, which feels especially whinily liberal given the relative stability of the times in which it was written. Winston's big speech to the villain is too sappily "Saturday-morning", and the climactic twist doesn't have the impact it should, perhaps again due to the quality of the animation. This is, nonetheless, a worthwhile episode.
Overall this DVD should be enjoyed by fans of the series, but inevitably fails to recapture the magic of the original "Ghostbusters" movie.
