In the past, the Ghosts TV series has been very successful for CBS in the ratings. However, there’s been a nine-month gap between the seasons of the network’s scripted shows due to last year’s industry strikes. Will this show continue to have a big audience or have viewers moved on? Will Ghosts be cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned.*Status Update Below.
A single-camera comedy series, the Ghosts TV show stars Rose McIver, Utkarsh Ambudkar, Brandon Scott Jones, Richie Moriarty, Danielle Pinnock, Asher Grodman, Roman Zaragoza, Rebecca Wisocky, and Devan Chandler Long. In the story, freelance journalist Samantha (McIver) and up-and-coming chef Jay Arondekar (Ambudkar) are a couple from New York City. When Sam inherits a rundown country estate in upstate New York, they throw caution to the wind and decide to convert it into a bed & breakfast. The hitch is that the estate is inhabited by numerous spirits of people who’ve died there over the years. The departed souls are a close-knit, eclectic group and are anxious about the commotion that a renovation and a B&B will bring to their home. Their outlook changes when, after an accident, they learn that Sam can see and hear them. In season three, the Arondekars work to open Jay’s on-site restaurant and the ghosts’ relationships continue to evolve.
