As a New Yorker, my accent intensifies when I'm upset, so I think it's actually realistic that Kylie's accent does the same.

Funny, I've never even been to New York and that was also my first thought. I know it's not common with all accents but it seems to be a something of a recurring thing with distinctive regional accents. Being the kind of omni-nerd I am, I'd genuinely be fascinated to see people with backgrounds in linguistics and neurology contribute to a video essay explaining it. It feels like your more advanced but much slower prefrontal cortex might be part of the brain committee that tones down regional accents so an angry or upset response might slip by before it noticed? Just a _very_ poorly-educated guess.

It's kind of like when Australians get hired to work in movies or TV shows in the U.S., or when they're just not playing to a predominately Australian audience (Steve Irwin, etc)... their Australian accent reaches an almost Simpsons-level of comedic over-the-topness. Sometimes they're doing it on purpose, I guess, but a lot of the time I think it just naturally happens. (I'm Australian, BTW. Went to school in the U.S. for a few years and my nickname was "Fosters"...)

This is me just spitballing, but if I had to guess, a lot of Egon’s “too old for this” attitude could easily be chalked up to just the mental toll that being a Ghostbuster inflicted on him. Seriously, even if we’re just going by The Real Ghostbusters, he’s been possessed at least once, forced to confront a deep-seated childhood terror (read: the Bogeyman) twice, laid eyes upon Cthulhu, and nearly been killed on numerous occasions. Frankly, it’s a miracle he hadn’t gone insane by the events of this show.

This series definitely had a lot of potential and I agree with some oh Phelous's critiques and yeah Egon should have been used more,since it seems like a bad idea to give proton packs to 4 college students who don't have any experience in this field. Things that could've made extreme a bit better Have the first part of the series be Egon training the new group so they be better equipped for dealing with Ghosts. As the series Egon gives them the choice to leave if they want because they are just kids in College,which gives a nice dynamic between the team and Egon since wouldn't want to deprive any of them a normal life. Have Eduardo grow more as Ghost Buster. Expand more on the world Extreme is set in and for the crossover have one of the original members try to give the kids some words of wisdom.Maybe have a dynamic between Peter and Eduardo,Eduardo is slightly jealous of Peter and Peter thinks Eduardo isn't cut out for this job which brings back what I said would help the series Eduardo growing more as a Ghost Buster and grow into more of a hero. Sorry if I brought this up I just felt like saying what I think could've helped Extreme as a series.

Also, totally agree about her being a great and _very_ well-performed character (not that you'd ever expect less from Tara Strong).

The show never plays the line like he's saying something inaccurate when it's said and he never gets called on it.

Chris McWilliams If i were, to have my way the pilot ep, would open in the first 5-10 minutes, (Like in Batman beyond were Bruce quits being batman) an Unknown powerful entity, confronted the Real Ghostbusters, in which nearly destroyed the city, by opening a gateway too the ghost world. An Peter sacrificed himself too save everyone an got sucked into the ghost realm. After his death or disappearance, the team breaks down an disband, Leaving Egon an Janine too closeshop, the ghostbusters were slowly forgotten. Timeskip too years later a new team comes in Egon or Janine having reservation due too what happens too peter, about the new team. but reluctantly trains them. An the face dark an more scarier ghost. Both new an old one. An risk an consequence are high. That would make the show more centered, a more mature teen audience, then kids. making it more standout. Though it may alienate fans of the original series. but its just my idea. Also im not gonna lie "The Ep "Deadliners" was the 1st ep i watched in this cartoon. an it gave me nightmares when i was a kid.

I totally thought this when I was younger: Garrett being the enthusiastic athlete, I pictured him zipping around through a crowd of ghosts with trap-hubcaps, sucking every entity up as he does a flashy 360 spin or something else "extreme". The main thought was, with all the tech and different Ectos (es?) that existed since TRGB, couldn't Garrett get some awesome enhancements to his chair? I know they wanted to emphasize the idea that someone in a wheelchair didn't need a bunch of additional assistance to succeed with the rest, but I still would've liked to see some good use of new equipment, especially being in a chair with his character traits. Then again, it would've created even easier outs and wrap-ups in plot solutions, as he would've became too op.

I am going to try and explain the "Ghost of a Ghost" thing. Slimer's body is ectoplasm that is formed around his spirit self. If the new evil ghost were to push the spirit part of Slimer out of the ectoplasm body then it could occupy that ectoplasm. HOWEVER, the ectoplasm should reform around Slimer's spirit like it does when he gets smashed or passes thru a wall. Maybe the evil ghost has the ability to lock spirits out of whatever ethereal field that ectoplasm is formed from. Working in higher dimensions, like lifting someone out of a maze and putting them in a cage overlooking it. They are not in the maze, but can see it.

Definitely enjoyed the review, though might have liked to hear more opinions on the ghosts themselves and how inventive they got; I love the "Fear Itself" episode the most, where the ghostly embodiment of fear is itself terrified of everything, and the team actually feels sorry for it and doesn't trap it at all. Eduardo taking so well to the ghostbuster life despite no academic interest in the supernatural makes sense, I mean, it's an exciting, heroic and mostly physical job rather than something he has to think too hard about.

I dunno, I think the "I'm a scientist" catchphrase works if you look at it as Eduardo acting like a bit of a poser, rather than being serious about it. Like he assumes that BECAUSE he's a Ghostbuster, that automatically makes him a scientist. It seems in-character for a dumb college kid whose either a little to full of themself, or not too bright. Or both. That said, I haven't actually seen the show proper. So for all I know, this wasn't how it came across in the series.

When rewatching years later assumed basically that it was Eduardo being self-important, though his attempts to bumble through exams in some episodes with sophistic gibberish he can't pronounce - with Kylie typically catching him out - demonstrates the dim element. He got plenty of moments to offset it by being brave or selfless though, most being connected to Kylie in some way. In many ways he's the Beast Boy of the series.

Dave Couliers Venkman still sounds like when an immature kids tries to imitate someone he doesn't like, or thinks is stupid. Really reeks of the that level of exaggerated oafishness. Whether or not that was intentional is beyond me, given the guy is neither very funny or that good of a voice actor (see his take on Felix the Cat for further reference) Really makes it hard to appreciate even the better written lines. It really wouldn't be so hard to get over, except for the fact that every other human character at least talks like a normal person. Is there really nobody in the studio at the time who heard this?

In regards to the Eduardo's scientist line. There is maybe one or two times this is said where it's played more like the fact he isn't is part of the joke like when he accidentally shoots his proton stream after saying it. The rest of the time it is straight up used as a strange qualifier for their actions like the original Peter line without any hint of irony about it. In fact in the episode Back in the Saddle Peter mentions failing a few times in college didn't stop him from being a scientist and then he and Eduardo exchange a knowing smile. If you don't want to believe me watch the scenes again where he says that for the context of how it's used.

I'm very happy that you gave this show a fair shot as many fans of Real Ghostbusters tend to give the expectable "it's not what I watched therefore it's garbage" reaction. I'm not a super-fan of the show or anything but I do remember liking it as a kid and I think you hit the nail right on the head on its strengths and weaknesses. Maybe one day people will learn from the various incarnations of the show and make a new one that updates the concepts while still staying true to the spirit of the original and most importantly, will have as much attention for detail as the original. And hopefully THIS time they'll allow the show to have the dead remain dead and have their ghosts be bloody ghosts!

I like the idea of bringing in a new young group, and that concept would have made for a great third movie, instead of the reboot that Paul Feig will be shitting out. I think what really lost me with EGB was the lack of any decent humor. Both movies and RGB had a perfect balance of comedy and darkness. EGB was clearly more heavy on the darkness, which I don't mind too much, but come on. It's Ghostbusters. There should be a good balance.

An interesting idea brought up in one of the recent IDW ghost buster comic cross over between the real Ghost busters and IDW ghost busters is that not only are the Real ghost busters and IDW are set in different universes but so are the 88 Ghost Buster's and Extreme, it's even implied that Extrame Ghost busters is a different universe all together than Real. Although how that works when Extreme and Real do share some ( it's not much ) but some conterunity. So maybe in the Extreme verse the Real ghost busters had less of an impact, perhaps after Gozar the ghosts didn't appear as much as in the real series. But that's just a guess on my part

As for the question of why Eduardo stuck around on the team despite his apathy towards the paranormal, I like to believe that he DID plan to leave after the pilot, but changed his tune after seeing the check from the team's first "regular" bust.

Yeah, Eduardo took the class for an easy A and doesn't believe in the beginning. It seems you don't like that. It also seems you've forgotten Winston Zeddmore's character arc.

Yeah but Winston stayed because well he needs a living. When Eduardo could hypothetically drop out and take a different class

I use to sneakily get up really bloody early to watch this when I was younger. I still love it honestly ( Kylie is my favorite character )

I liked how when Maurice LeMarche is saying "I'm a has-been", he winds up sounding more like Brain for a second. That part though did really push the attitudes the writers must have thought the kids these days had. Some idea that nobody over the age of 25 or so can do anything physical. Egon really should have been there more often during the cases, gradually showing up less and less as the team got more competent and better understood what they were doing. Also, I think with the Killjoys/Clown monsters, they established that they turned Eduardo into one of them to replace the one they captured. Seemed to imply that the 4 initial ones were part of a starting gang of sorts that had died and become ghosts, whereas Eduardo wasn't dead and it was akin to him being possessed in a manner similar to Kylie in the first two episodes. Though it does raise the question as to why the other people didn't return. Maybe because the final monster at the end was like a hive-mind and you have to destroy it? I mean Roland came out of nowhere at the end.

38:42 wrong. in that episode, after Eduardo had turned into normal and Roland had come back, Garrett commented:"well, Roland can't be the only nudist in here. let's find the others." they went to look for rest of the victims in the clownhouse and the episode ended.

I actually really like Eduardo's scientist catch phrase, especially since it's so obviously not true. It tells something about his character that he'd keep emphasizing it constantly.

I never really got a chance to see this show, but it seems very similar to the MIB cartoon from around the same period. That show had pretty good plots, humor, and gruesome alien designs.

I was born in 89, so I missed out on the original cartoon, but I do recall seeing this on television a few times but never really sat down and really watched it. Shame, this actually looks pretty fun. Gotta say, I really like that remix of the theme.
