Gross Anatomy
hellraiser75 March 2018
This episode is an honorable mention in my book, it's another from my favorite script/comic book writer and one of my favorate writers for the show J Michael Strynski he always has some of the most colorful and creative ideas. This feels almost more like the kind of episode David Chroneburg would writer as the subject matter is right up his alley.

This one deals with body horror, as we see each of the Ghostbusters are affected by some chemical that has covered their whole bodies. Throughout the episode things get more and more gross, weird as well as funny. I really like seeing each of the Ghostbusters in the hospital getting help from this doctor whom is clearly out of his element, as he is practically clueless in helping them. One really funny moment was when they were playing Moby Dick by chasing the doctor in wheelchairs and Winston is caring a giant needle that looks like one for cattle; yeah serves that quack right for poking them with too many needles and doing too many tests I'm not sure are legal.

But of course the scary and weird part is when we see each of the Ghostbusters have a body part grown from a eyeball, mouth, nose and ear. It really made me concerned about their lives and all the more wonder how much more worse can things get and hope they can find a cure on time.

Though little do they know the cure is closer than they think and shows that sometimes the best doctor is yourself.

Rating: 3 and a half stars.
