No offense Brighton but here another tv show('live' or animated/cartoons)imo where the movie was much better.;) including "Ghostbusters." Ditto for "Back to Future' as well spinoff as a tv series cartoon.

In most cases the tv show that is a spin off from a popular movie is terrible. The excpetions are very few the most notable being "Fame" and "M*A*S*H".

Have to disagree. Both the movie, and the cartoons were hits.. Ghostbusters wise. Back to the future, on the other hand was a great movie, however, the cartoons weren't as good.

Good one Aqueduct! I remember those Crazy Eddie commercial ads. The actor for those ads was Jerry Carroll. The real Eddie was Eddie Antar who was wanted by the U.S. Marshals for fraud, and did time in prison for it. His cousin Sam Antar was the one that turn against him. They try to do a come back in the late 90's, but it didn't work out at all. It was one of the best electronic store in the U.S. when it was once IN-SA-A-A-A-A-ANE!!!
