This show is very much a product of its time but it holds up pretty well. Four stars because it sometimes just gets a little *too* corny but I'm honestly being picky. I'm not a rabid fan of the franchise but this is a good watch on a lazy Saturday with a 12 pack of Ecto-Cooler. Watch the two-part episode where Egon dies-- I dare you not to cry.

Cool but pricey and does not include every episode. I am a long time fan. Always have been and always will be. Cool because it is my absolute favourite. Not cool because the episode selection is limited.

Sony decided not to release every single episode and that is why I am giving it two stars. Sony dropped the ball with this digital release and making this an incomplete series was wrong. Sony should have did the digital release by seasons instead of volumes that are like the 2016 DVD releases. Yes, there are five more episodes included in the digital release that the 2016 DVD volumes didn't have. However, making this an incomplete series was wrong on all levels.
