Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs. Ghostbusters

It’s Saturday, and that used to mean nothing but cartoons all day. So let’s take a minute (preferably during a commercial time-out) to remember nothing but good, old-fashioned, cartoons. News out of Hollywood is that studio execs are in the process of bringing back the Ghostbusters franchise for a third movie.  Growing up as a kid, the two cartoons that dominated my day were Ghostbusters and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  As a child of the 80’s these were two of the best cartoons around.  But which cartoon was better?
