The Real Ghostbusters, the hit animated series that ran from 1986 until 1991, is coming to YouTube, beginning with a free premiere and teasing more for fans who subscribe to the Ghostbusters YouTube account. Set in the world of the original Ghostbusters, The Real Ghostbusters spawned toys, comic books, and other spinoffs – including a new generation of merch in the last few years. The show, which ran for seven seasons, was called “The Real Ghostbusters” because it competed with another animated series called The Ghostbusters, based on a 1975 film from Filmation, the producers of which had struck a deal with Columbia Pictures to allow the 1984 movie to use the name.
