There’s a very specific reason [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) was cast as a therapist on “The Secret Life of the American Teenager”…simply spending a one-hour session with him can cure anyone’s problems, be they mental or physical.

Ernie never uses a [PKE meter](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-pke-meter) as it’d do him no good. Ghosts naturally run away when he’s around so there’s nothing for him to detect.

The true reason Louis got locked out of his apartment? [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) wasn’t invited and a party without Ernie Hudson is not a party worth getting into.

[Ecto Goggles](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-ecto-goggles) also prove no use to Ernie. They simply interfere with his already natural infrared/X-ray vision.

As much as Winston loves Jesus’ style, Jesus based his style completely on [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson).

Don’t mess with [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson). He is the only man in the world capable of killing you with his bare hands, and then whipping out the [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) to bust your ghost afterward. He is capable of kicking your a-- twice.

According to certain crew members on “[Ghostbusters II](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-ii-activision)”, when [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) delivered the line “Wow, that is one ugly dude” to the painting of Vigo, tears were seen streaming down the canvas.

Ernie is patiently waiting to perform this double whammy upon Chuck Norris.

[Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) doesn’t need to wonder whether the Statue of Liberty is naked under that toga. Any glance he gives a woman causes them to immediately undress.

</div>

If you look very closely at the crowd scenes in both “Ghosbusters” and “[Ghostbusters II](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-ii-activision)”, you can see [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) in several different spots. This is because he has the ability to multiply and wanted the extras to feel safe in knowing that he was constantly nearby.

In the event of a giant Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man actually attacking [New York City](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/new-york-city), [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) would simply grow to a greater size and take care of it.

Did you notice that McDonald’s doesn’t use the Mayor McCheese character anymore? That is because [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) ate him. Apparently he was the only burger big enough to satisfy Ernie’s massive hunger. Though, directly after, he single handedly saved [New York City](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/new-york-city), and the world, by eating the entire [Stay Puft Marshmallow Man](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/the-stay-puft-marshmallow-man) for dessert.

The real reason Winston didn’t help bust [the Scoleri Brothers](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/scoleri-brothers)? [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) isn’t allowed in any courtroom because the law doesn’t apply to him.

Why is [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) the only one publicly stating the possible release date for “Ghostbusters III”? Because he has the ability to see into the future.

While working on their cover of the “Ghosbusters” theme song for “Ghosbusters II”, Run DMC asked [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) to join the group. He respectfully declined, stating that the city of New York needed him and his ghostbusting abilities more.

And the real reason [the Scoleri brothers](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/scoleri-brothers) were so easy to catch was because [Ernie Hudson](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ernie-hudson) roughed them up outside the courtroom first, bare-fisted.
