I got in touch with Bob Burns! And he's willing to feed the Go-ers and leave his mark on our forum. Am I dreaming? NO!
Let's make up a meaningful interview... It's up to you, since English is not my main language... Devil? Nix? Everyone else?

Here's some Questions I had in regards to the series and his part....
1. What make and year is the Ghostbusters Car, and how was it like to drive the car?
2. Did you have any fond memories in regards to the Ghost Kit (Ghostbusting Bag)?
3. What do you think the dematerializer (gun) and what do you think they made it of?
4. Are there any thoughts on the Zero character that would give the cases to his character?
....I'll let you know what other questions I have when I get them (And I will)

3. What do you think the dematerializer (gun) and what do you think they made it of? Yes, that's a great idea for a question. I'm very glad I had it! Perhaps it could be improved. "Mr. Burns, my name is Nix, and I'm trying to get a prop-replica version of the Dematerializer off the ground. Would you be so kind as to share any memories you might have of the original prop--what it was made from, for example.

Not sure of anything else, since most of my questions have been answered on his DVD interview in the live-action box-set. Maybe a good one would be,
"What are some of your best memories about working with the show's guest stars (the ghosts)? Severn Darden, Jim Backus, etc."

Prime Good - It's great that you made contact with Mr Burns! Congratulations! Thank you very much for giving us this chance to ask Mr. Burns questions! Here are my questions: 1) For those who don't know, could you please tell us how you won the role of Tracy? 2) Could you share with us some background info on the suit you wore as Tracy? 3) What were some of the early influences which first sparked your passion for science fiction, horror, and fantasy? 4) Who were some of your favorite performers who played gorillas in film and tv? 5) Could you tell us about your experiences working with Lou Scheimer? 6) What was it like working with Forrest Tucker? 7) Could you tell us what it was like working with Larry Storch? 8) Do you have a favorite episode of The Ghost Busters? 9) Do you have any funny stories about working on The Ghost Busters which you would like to share? 1O) Can fans contact you for an autographed photo? Thank you very much Mr. Burns!

Even though Mr. Burns answered some of those questions on the DVD set, it's still good you asked them. He might be able to tell us extra information that wasn't on the DVD. As hard as I try, I can't think of anything, which is crazy, since I am VERY happy we are having him on the site! I'm sure many fans feel the same, so I appreciate all of you who have posted questions for our special guest! (I hope I don't think of a great question after the interview is over!)
I like his commentary on the Creature From The Black Lagoon film series DVD set as well. And the story he tells here:

Well even if the question was answered by him before doesn't mean he'll give exact same answer again. So in short, don't worry if its been asked before.

The Kogar Award is a graphic that Mr Burns awards to sites that get his seal of approval. Kogar is the name of the gorilla character he started playing in the 1960's. I believe Kogar had a different head than Tracy (maybe Mr Burns will mention that in the interview). The rules for the Kogar Award are on the Official Bob Burns Web Site: www.bobburns.mycottage.com/awards.htm
