With us just being days away from 2020, the year of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, it’s no surprise that we are on the verge of getting loads of new promotions, materials etc.
And today we have the best thing ever… Annie Potts back in the Firehouse as Ghostbusters secretary Janine Melnitz for new ads for Quickbooks accountancy software.
Janine was, of course, The Ghostbusters’ secretary in the original 1984 movie, the sequel and the animated series, so having her back is as important to the fans as any of the other original cast.
Potts isn’t alone in the ad either as Slimer appears too. And it’s all fantastic!
But I cannot lie, with Potts back in the Firehouse, which looks perfectly screen accurate here, I’m wondering if perhaps this is actually the set of the HQ from Afterlife?
Whatever it is, having Janice back is something of a dream come through for us fans.

On top of the awesomeness below, while we have known for sometime that Janice was back for the third movie, the actress herself recently confirmed it on The Kelly Clarkson Show (below), in which she says: “I haven’t seen anything yet [from the movie], but we have completed it and I think it’s going to be fabulous!”
Watch the full clip below:

In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
