	Filmation
		Filmation was a company that produced cartoons for television during the later half of the 20th Century.
		As with other producers of Saturday morning cartoons, Filmation produced a number of series that were so poor quality as to be nearly unwatchable (such as the Groovie Goolies series); however, they did make a number of attempts to rise above the standard animated fare and produce reasonably well-written cartoons.
		Other favorably remembered Filmation series included a 16-part animated serial of Flash Gordon and Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids[?], an animated educational series which starred and was produced by Bill Cosby.

	The He-Man Page
		To its credit, Filmation did a remarkable amount of work to create the first season of He-Man. They went to the trouble of rotoscoping live-action footage to create a library of stock character movements.
		Filmation made a total of 130 episodes of "He-Man", in two series of 65 episodes each, and a further 77 or so episodes of the spinoff series "She-Ra".
		Filmation's 230 employees, most of them animators, found themselves cast out into the street without jobs, and so it was that the doors to He-Man's future were sealed forever.

		Filmation had nothing to do with the "Real" Ghostbusters, except that Filmation brought a lawsuit against the movies that the show was based on.
		Then, Filmation capitalized on the success of the movies by releasing their own Ghostbusters cartoon in the 80s (that was based on the live action tv show).
		Both the Filmation series and the projected film were called "Ghostbusters," a situation that developed when the title failed to show up on a title search.

		filmation was disolved and Hanna-Barbara was almost bankrupt.
		Filmation was awesome for creating the original Ghost Busters in the first place.
		And annoying it is until the end of each episode until finally we are supposed to take the plot seriously and think the Ghost Busters are in trouble, but only long enough for them to be rescued by a friend.

	some problems with your theories... -- The Unofficial Filmation Web Forum
		Problem there is that PARAMOUNT owns the rights to the animated Trek now, NOT Filmation, which is why Paramount was able to release it.
		My point is, you can write to anybody you like (even Lou Scheimer), but the ONLY way these shows will come out is if Hallmark has a change of heart or if they sell off their Filmation holdings.
		All their >properties were sold off to third parties, and not all >to the same company.

		That said, I've got to be honest and say that whilst I adore Filmation's animation for its pure charm, wonderful character designs and amazing background artwork, I think the more sci-fi influenced NA benefitted from the superior animation of DiC, with faster-moving action sequences.
		Although Filmation could do laser beams and faster action sequences (as seen on BraveStarr), I still feel that DiC had the edge in that department.
		Filmation def would have done a WAY better job in my opinion...
