Hoax article. Of course there were Ghostbusters animated series; however this one is a hoax. Apart from there obviously being no supporting evidence provided (or found) by references, there are more than a few inconsistencies in the article. For example it was made for the Welsh television station HTV, but apparently shown only on the BBC - that would be the competition. And getting the original movie stars to do the voices doesn't pan out. Seems to be connected with an anon IP editor who has been inserting dubious information on alleged animated series on a couple of existing articles. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 23:29, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

• Redirect to The Real Ghostbusters or to Ghostbusters (disambiguation) ....Mandsford (talk) 23:44, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
• Speedy redirect to Ghostbusters (disambiguation) not Real Ghostbusters as there are several TV series with this exact title. Agreed that the content is a hoax which is why I say to speedy this. 23skidoo (talk) 01:12, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• Speedy redirect to Ghostbusters (disambiguation). There were at least 4 TV shows about Ghostbusters, but this article appears to be a hoax. --Pixelface (talk) 03:31, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete hoaxalicious. This is reminiscent of a hoaxmonger from the past, but I can't remember who. JuJube (talk) 04:37, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• I thought it was more likely that it was someone who remembered the Ghostbusters cartoon, but who was under the impression that the voices were done by the Hollywood actors. The reason that Bill Murray's character sounded like Garfield the Cat was that the voice was supplied by Lorenzo Music. I think if someone types in the words Ghostbusters and TV in a search engine, a redirect would take them quickly to the disambiguation page. Mandsford (talk) 12:38, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
• Preferably delete, or at least delete and redirect. Clearly a hoax. PC78 (talk) 13:23, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
