This is more of a reaction to previous threads and comments made there.
I don't think you can disregard the impact that the Real Ghostbusters had on the franchise. Yes the movies are the main body but there were a lot of good ideas that came from the tv show, so good that they put some of them in the Video Game. (Slimer being named and shown staying at the firehouse coming to mind.)
I'm not saying it's more important but what I am saying is I don't think you can dismiss it as just a kids show that has no value on the franchise as a whole and the characters in particular.
There is only two movies and there are over 120 episodes (someone can give me an exact number) of RGB and over half of them are on the same quality in writing and characterization that the movie had.
I don't know, I will always defer to the movies as being the top of the franchise when push comes to shove, but when I think of Ghostbusters my mind goes fro Bill Murray to immediately memories of the TV show. I don't know, what do you think?
