OK, I haven't seen RGB, but I am a big fan of the movies, and based on the two theme songs at Youtube EGB looks a thousand times better! EGB was a great show because it each episode was different and interesting. Especially the episodes "Deadliners", "Ghost Apocalyptic Future", "Heart of Darkness" and "Casting the Runes". The characters were well done and relatable . And the show was surprisingly dark and violent for a children's show. They put a lot of effort into the design of the new weapons and ghost trap, to make them look stronger than the old weapons. There was also a lot of effort put into the designs of the ghosts and demons in this show. Especially, the Sphinx, the Deadliners monsters, The demon from "Casting the Runes", and the monster from "The Unseen" are good examples.
And this show was not an insult to Ghostbusters! It had a direct sequel to a RGB episode ("Grundelesque" which continues the RGB episode "The Grundel") Egon and Janine and Slimer were still there! And there was that two parter episode where they brought back The Real Ghostbusters! And the original cast! Heck, there was a statue of Peter Venkman in the fire house! And the theme song rocked! Deep down in your heart you know the theme song was the best theme song of any cartoon ever.
Overall, EGB is a great show that features everything you'd want in a show like this. Action, good stories, good characters and serious plots. It is no doubt one of the best cartoons of the 90's.
score 10/10
