The episodes are going to be Citizen Ghost from season 1 and Partners in Slime from season 5.

They chose those episodes because they tie into both movies (Citizen Ghost takes place immediately after the first movie ended and Partners in Slime has several references to GBII).

Citizen Ghost is an awesome episodes, the Phantom Ghostbusters are some of the cooler villains the show had, while Partners in Slime is one of the few good episodes from the last 3 seasons but is only mediocre when compared to other episodes from season 1. Take Two used actual footage from the first movie and would've been a better choice, IMO.

Also, if you reserved your copy at Suncoast you'll get a free Stay Puft toy. If you didn't then I'm sorry.

As far as specialf eatures go, nope nothing new. The episodes and the scrapbook are all the improvements over the last two releases, which is kind've disappointing, as there was still SO MUCH stuff the didn't include on the last DVDs (particularly GBII, which would really benefit from a director's cut). However, on the bright side, if this sells well we might finally see a DVD release of the Real Ghostbusters in America.
