The Real Ghostbusters vs. Cthulhu (you tube video)
 

Better watch it now before it gets taken down!

One of my favorite episodes, it was banned during the Fox Family Channel reruns due to "occult content" (Fox's words, not mine). I read an interview with Michael Reaves about the episode and some of the mistakes (spelling Cthulhu wrong in the title and making said Old One purple instead of green).

And this episode was made years BEFORE parodying Cthulhu in cartoons became the cool new trend.

There was also a sequel episode made several seasons later, "Russian About", written by J. Michael Straczynski. It wasn't as good, save for the chant used by the cult to awaken the Old One.

"Brick-a brack-a fire-cracka siss boom bah! Old Ones! Old Ones! Rah! Rah! Rah!"

Quality.

Damn, just watching the intro has reminded me of how much I actually love that show. It was right up there with the Looney Tunes... Good old days, where stuff didn't have to come from japan to maybe qualify as "good".

wow that was great everything about it was just great!
And on a related tmnt note it reminds me of the second nano episode where they took his big ass on a roller coaster ride so to speak hehe.:lol:

God, I LOVE these You Tube pirates!

"Ragnarok and Roll", agreed my most to be the BEST episode of the entire series. Certainly J. Michael Straczynski's best work.

Really dark episode, too.

I always like the boogy man episodes they creeped me out as a kid and had wicked character designs! It's odd I didn't untill this point ever realize how much the ghosts on this show influenced my own characters.
And I am now a Legendary Member as of this post Thank you Ghost Busters and Dr.Spengler!

He was also in one of the BEST issues of the Now! Comics series. The Ghostbusters comic was allowed to be a lot darker than the cartoon, so the Boogieman was allowed to actually maul the children he frightened (that is NOT red ectoplasm in the last scan). The kid ends up going to the hospital and the Boogieman tries to finish him off. The Ghostbusters naturally save the day.
