Ghosts will not be making like a ghost anytime soon because CBS picked up the sitcom for a full season today. So what are we going to do to celebrate? Let’s all have a dinner party at 9p! Well, not everyone is invited, and that is going to cause a lot of tension in the house. But I am getting ahead of myself.
Samantha (Rose McIver) and her husband, Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar), meet their living neighbors tonight. Henry and Margaret (Mark Linn-Baker and Kathryn Greenwood) stop by to introduce themselves and let the couple know that they are on the committee that will decide if they can get a permit to turn their mansion into a bed and breakfast. When Henry says that he won’t be approving their permit, Samantha invites them over for dinner.
When the Ghosts hear that the livings are going to have a dinner party, they get really excited. Therefore, they want to go because it is one of the things they live, I mean die, for. However, Samantha tells them that they are not invited. What happens when she tells them that they can’t come?
Do you think that Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky), Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Pete (Richie Moriarty), Trevor (Asher Grodman), Flower (Sheila Carrasco), Alberta (Danielle Pinnock), and Thorfinn (Devan Chandler Long) are going to take no for an answer? They are not. How badly will they screw things up for Samantha and Jay?
I can’t tell you that. What I can tell you is that I smiled when the episode ended because it genuinely made me happy. There is just something so delightful about this series that it always leaves me smiling. How many other shows can you say that about these days?
With all of the negativity out there, we need something positive. That is what you get with Ghosts. If a program could be huggable, then this would be it.
Each episode is full of plenty of cute jokes, sweet interactions, and joy. Every actor is endearing, even the Viking. The only negative thing I can say about it is that 30 minutes is not enough time for each episode.
So if you want to watch something that makes you feel good, then Ghosts is for you and your whole family. Watch it tonight and every Thursday at 9p on CBS.
