One of the best ghosts of ghosts provides no horror

Although “Abbott Elementary” is probably getting the greatest attention and recognizes Among the Situs of Live Actions in 2025, the “ghosts” CBS still deserve proper. This is a comedy series about a married couple, which is a farmstead in the Northern state of New York and tries to turn it into a successful bed and breakfast.

There is only one complication: the house is filled with ghosts, and Sam’s wife (Rose Makiver) can see them. Jay’s husband (Utkarsh Acbudar) does not see the ghosts, but fortunately he is the most patient man in the world. Not only does he quickly believe that his wife is quickly but also making a valiant effort to be good before the invisible ghosts when they constantly interfere with his life and Sam.

What makes the work of “ghosts” is how its prerequisite allows it to unite characters who have never found themselves in the same room. For example, ghosts in the Sam and Jay House include a closed military officer who died during a revolutionary war, a storyteller of the Indians who died in 1593, Viking, who died more than a thousand years ago, and more modern spirits, as a crawling, a financial brother who died in 2000. Writers feel like that.

The most promising aspect of “ghosts” is that even after four seasons, he still resisted the temptation to suffer his own experience almost death and develop his own ability to see ghosts. If the writers of the series, when -end the ideas, they can do it and guarantee at least the material that is worth working. But although Jay from time to time interacted with ghosts (and even saw one of them temporarily in the episode), the creators of the show otherwise kept away from any such change the status of -x. At the same time, they left the opportunity open for down; Hopefully, they throw Jay Kosty he deserves until the show begins.

Just like the “office” in front of it“Ghosts” is another American television show that is not as original as you could think. The original “ghost” series was premiered in April 2019 and aired for five seasons (or 34 episodes). It has the same main prerequisite with the participation of the wife (Alison played by Charlotte Richie), which will be able to see the ghosts after almost death, when her husband (Mike, played Kiel Smith-Bino), seeks to keep up.

The differences between the shows are reminiscent of them Between American and UK version of the “office”, The fact that British iteration is more ready to accept the darkness of its precondition. On the other hand, American “ghosts” often skirts around the tragedy inherent in their ghostly character, using humor to trim what could be a devastating heart. The British “ghost” is simply more convenient for the public to remain sad for a long period.

It is also ready to allow the main married couple to have tougher fights throughout the series. While Sam and Jay are almost inappropriately healthy and good in communication, the jersey is much harder to adapt before his wife spends all day while talking to his invisible friends. The result is that the “ghosts” of the UK feel more difficult, but the American version creates a securely wind of the Escapist Entertainment.

For American fans who want Jay to start seeing ghosts regularly, the British version does not give great hope. Mike does this all the show without seeing ghosts that feels like a missed opportunity. Fortunately, the American version of 20+ episode seasons will be longer to study its prerequisites from all possible angles. At one point for his six (or perhaps more) seasons, Jay can hang out with all ghosts properly.
