I’m wondering if anyone has found any updated information since the last update of this episode guide fix-up (September 2012)? Particularly the last four seasons (4, 5, 6 and 7) from when the show was re-titled Slimer! And the Real Ghostbusters?

For example, the 1989-90 season consisted of the following segments:

  • 1 episode of RGB running 15 minutes

  • 1 episode of RGB running 22 minutes

  • 1 episode of Slimer! running 14 minutes

Most weeks were formatted as such, but some of these weeks had two half-hour RGBs (one new and one rerun).

It is confirmed, according to the link above, that the 9/9/1989 setup had these episodes:

I’m not sure about the information provided from the sight, but I do remember the format of the show when it originally aired.

When Slimer and The Real Ghostbusters was released in 1988 it consisted of a Slimer episode The Real Ghostbusters Episode and 2 more Slimer episodes. In 1989 it was a 15 minute episode of The Real Ghostbusters and a 22 minute episode of The Real Ghostbusters and a slimer episode. 1990 it was 2 22 minute long episodes of The Real Ghostbusters occasionally showing the Slimer Show. Then in 1991 it was just 1 episode of The Real Ghostbusters for the rest of the show.

The practice of running RGB as a full-hour show on ABC began January 23, 1988 when two RGB shows were reran together, as The Adventures of the Gummi Bears was cancelled.

By comparison, Muppet Babies on CBS even ran as long as 90 minutes for a time in 1986 (three half-hours back to back) when Garbage Pail Kids was cancelled before even airing an episode.
