So, what do you do while you wait for Dan Aykroyd to make a third Ghostbusters movie? You tune in to the new Ghostbusters cartoon, Extreme Ghostbusters.

While I can’t help but think that somewhere a juggling-skydiver is gnashing his teeth over an “extreme” Ghostbusters cartoon, who cares? We get a new show and he can go jump…well, jump from a plane.

Produced by the same people who brought us The Real Ghostbusters, Extreme Ghostbusters is essentially The Real Ghostbusters: The Next Generation.

Egon returns, as does Slimer and Janine. Joining them are some new faces. Eduardo, Kylie, Garrett, and Roland are students enrolled in Dr. Egon Spengler’s Paranormal class, and when trouble brews up out of the New York underground, who ya gonna call? Considering that the Ghostbusters are no more, that’s a good question. So Egon trains his four pupils to pick up the torch…or proton pack. Whichever.

For anyone wondering whatever became of the other three original Ghostbusters, they’re alive and well and teamed up with the Extreme Ghostbusters at the end of EGBs first season in the episode “Back in the Saddle”.
