Awesome!

A new cartoon is long overdue.

Wonder what it'll be?

 

[Pennywise]

I wonder if it’s 2D or CGI?

It's Netflix. It's going to look terrible unless it's an outside company. But I'll watch.

True.

Sweet! Been wanting a new Ghostbusters animated show for the longest time now

Honestly, I would kind of like them to get House of Cool to do it. They have been using some fun techniques in He-man that I think would be great with the ghosts.

That's a decent shout, SB.

Oh cool! I wonder what sort of vibe they’re going for? Like, an avatar the last airbender type thing or like Star Trek lower decks? I could see them aiming for lower decks

I'd definitely check it out.

I only vaguely remember the original Gostbusters animated series from the 80's and out of curiosity after seeing this thread I decided to look it up. I couldn't even remember the exact name of the show, it turns out it was called The Real Ghostbusters, probably because there was another completely unrelated cartoon that came out the same year called Ghostbusters.

For some reason I though it was a short lived series, maybe just 1 or 2 seasons, but it hung on for 140 episodes over 7 years.

I wonder if Netflix will snag the rights to the original series when the new show comes out? I'd check it out just for the nostalgia factor.
