Reminisce summerville5/4/2023 ![]() In "Baby Spookums", she has a yellow Renault 5 Le Car, although it is not known if this is a loaner/rental or her own car in later instances, she owns a pink Beetle convertible. In 1987, Janine owns a red Volkswagen Beetle convertible, which is severely damaged after being loaned to the Ghostbusters in "Beneath These Streets". She tends to wear loud, blocky jewelry and (in early seasons) a miniskirt at work. Though her parents, sister, nephew, and grandmother all live in Canarsie (as seen in "Janine's Day Off"), she has remained in Brooklyn Heights, where she grew up. Janine is the youngest daughter of a working-class family from Brooklyn. After the battle with Gozer, she is seen outside of 55 Central Park West, hugging Egon, happy to see him alive and well, joining the rest of the Ghostbusters as they drive off in the Ecto-1. Later, she helps Egon interview Louis Tully, who was possessed by Vinz Clortho, the Keymaster of Gozer. She also interviews Winston Zeddemore for the job as the fourth member of the team. In the film's novelization, it is stated that she was the one who helped designed the Ghostbusters' "no ghost allowed" logo. In Ghostbusters, Janine is hired as the secretary of the Ghostbusters, where she keeps tabs on the clients. In "Janine's Genie", in which Janine encounters an evil genie after receiving a possessed lamp (unaware that the genie is evil), one of her wishes is for Egon to fall in love with her, and in one instance when she is driving Ecto-1, Egon comments, "Janine, you're beautiful when you drive." Egon and Janine share a handful of tender moments throughout the series, but Egon's somewhat stilted emotions often create a barrier between them.Īppearances Ghostbusters Despite this, Janine retains her attraction to Egon throughout the entire Real Ghostbusters series and into the Extreme Ghostbusters series. In Ghostbusters II, however, she becomes involved with Louis Tully, who has become the team's financial advisor and lawyer. This is shown in the original movie and the 2021 film Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and more prominently in The Real Ghostbusters. Throughout most Ghostbusters media, Janine is often displayed as having a romantic attraction to Egon Spengler. Potts reprised the role for 2009's Ghostbusters: The Video Game and 2021's Ghostbusters: Afterlife and had a cameo as a similar hotel receptionist in the 2016 remake. In Extreme Ghostbusters, she was voiced by Pat Musick. She was played by Annie Potts in the first two movies, and in The Real Ghostbusters, she was voiced initially by Laura Summer and later on by Kath Soucie. She is the Ghostbusters' secretary and confidante and occasionally, a ghostbuster herself. Janine Melnitz is a fictional character in the Ghostbusters series.
