Take Two

The Ghostbusters go to California to see their movie being made. But someone frees a silence-loving ghost and their proton packs have been replaced by props!

How cool is it that not only is the movie referenced, but it's actually one-upped! You gotta love how JMS flipped the script and made The Real Ghostbusters truly the REAL Ghostbusters, and the movie Ghostbusters turned into Hollywood fiction. I wish Dan Aykroyd would adopt that idea so that Ghostbusters II can be written out of the canon as "Hollywood fiction". And who here DIDN'T get a charge out of seeing the actual movie footage IN the episode itself?!? Winston gets my favorite line of the episode: Murray, Aykroyd, and Ramis?!? What's that, a law firm?
