Matthew keeps the video hits comin’ with this clip from ABC’s Earth Day Special in 1990 (one year after Ghostbusters 2) – if you get to 5:15, you’ll get to hear from Elon Spengler, “brother” to Egon, and founder of Wastebusters. You have to see it to believe it, trust me.
While not the first Ghostbusters-themed tour of New York (nor second even), this newly posted entry is a nice addition to the growing collection.
Remember that internal Apple sales video, that spoofed the Ghostbusters music video? Well, that one was cut down by nearly two minutes, which we know now because the full version has popped up! The video now includes an appearance by Steve Jobs (in full Blue Buster gear) and concludes with [...]

It was pretty much a given, once Mattel announced that they were canceling Club Ecto, the subscription based service that provided fans with first crack at unique figures, but Scott “ToyGuru” Neitlich, Mattel’s brand manager in charge of the license, confirmed a lot more details today, outlining exactly why the [...]
Robin “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” Leach interviewed Dan Aykroyd about some new happenings at the House of Blues in Las Vegas, but still took a moment – his opening question in fact – to ask about Ghostbusters 3. Dan’s answer is basically “maybe yes, maybe no” with a [...]
A few people have suggested it should read “Back off, Man. I’m a scientist.” as the motto, but still, an awesome crest from Bensanity. [VIA Ghostbusters.org]
Ghosthead and IGN writer, Greg Miller, filed a story today that Sony will be releasing some Ghostbusters DLC into their unique, but not quite set-the-world-on-fire, fighting game on the PS Vita; Reality Fighters. In short, you take a picture of your face, place it on a character, design the character [...]

Now I’ve seen it all – well except the rest of the GB’s brothers. I mean, where’s Jay Stantz, Winton Zeddemore, and Dieter Venkman?
WHAT IN ALL OF THE HOLY HELL?
why is this the first time we’ve seen this? This isn’t canon right? lol : ) Funny, but, oh forget it I have been left near speechless.
Freakin insane. So many cameos, I want to see the rest. Ghostbusters reference is icing on the cake!… Darn good icing though.
Yikes. Really hope the videogame script is better than this one….
wow…
I remember this. It was kinda of amazing how they got all sorts of ‘A’ list actors & characters from TV shows and movies from all different companies of the time into it. I think it ran without commercicals too. Can’t imagine anything like it ever happening today.
Logo Lou,
It reminds me a bit of the “Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue” anti-drug cartoon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jivU-4xv7aw
Watch it until the end!
“GREAT SCOTT! It’s not good!”
That´s new to me… Elon Spengler???
and wearing sneakers!!
Thanks for sharing, that shows the impact Ghostbusters had in the US audience in the early 90s.
I can’t believe that most of you have never seen this. I remember watching it live on ABC back in April of 1990, and taping it too. Plus I bought the home video that Warner Bros. released. It would be great if Warners re-released it onto DVD, and with the “save the environment” craze being popular again, it certainly would be a good time to do it. If they could release it once on home video, then there shouldn’t be any major rights or royalties issues with releasing it again.
Sadly, we’ll never get Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue on DVD because of rights issues. Yes, that one too got a home video release way back when (I have a copy), but if I remember correctly, that was just for the rental market, not for consumer purchase (except for when the rentals became available for sale as “previously viewed”).
By the way, if you just want to view the segment with Harold, that 3:34 clip can be found here:
