The Real Ghostbusters stood the test of time and helped expand the movies in unimaginable ways, but it’s only one of countless unexpected animated sequels produced over the years. Since their infancy, animated adaptations have been an incredible platform to explore popular franchises and continue their stories in ways that movies typically couldn’t. However, while it always made sense for movies like Star Wars to receive cartoon continuations, there are unlikely examples of animated series that somehow made it to television.Cartoons based on movies have a long history with series such as Return to the Planet of the Apes, The King Kong Show, and Fantastic Voyage. However, throughout the 80s, 90s, and even today, animated properties based on movies took off like never before, giving rise to popular titles like Beetlejuice, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, and The Real Ghostbusters. While some positioned themselves as reimaginings or prequels, sequel series tended to use the original movies as a jumping-off point to tell new stories within the franchise on television.Taking place shortly after the events of Godzilla, against all odds and his better judgment, Dr. Nick Tatopoulos manages to raise the last surviving offspring of the original monster. Imprinting on Dr. Tatopoulos, the young kaiju becomes a member of H.E.A.T. (Humanitarian Environmental Analysis Team), battling all manner of aliens, mutants, and monsters to protect the world. Featuring reimagined versions of classic Godzilla monsters like Mothra, Mechagodzilla, and Hedorah, the show had a creative rogues gallery, impressive animation, and the benefit of recasting Matthew Broderick, who played Dr. Tatopoulos in the movie.
