It’s a very GHOSTS holiday event—or a GHOSTmas, if you will—on Thursday, December 15, as the delightful CBS comedy celebrates Christmas (and Hanukkah) with “The Christmas Spirit.” (The episodes kick off at a special 8/7c time slot.)
“Sam and Jay are really excited to be having their first Christmas here at the mansion,” Román Zaragoza (who plays Sass) previews to Give Me My Remote. (The show didn’t do a holiday episode last year, and the cast shares they’ve speculated Rose McIver’s Sam and Utkarsh Ambudkar’s Jay left home for Christmas.)

GHOSTS, quite simply, is fantastic.
The CBS comedy—an adaptation of the British series by the same name—follows Sam (Rose McIver), a young woman whose life is turned upside when an accident leaves her with an unexpected gift: the ability to see (and communicate with) ghosts. That complicates things as she and her husband, Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar), try to turn the estate they inherited into a charming bed and breakfast…all while a gaggle of spirits (ranging from a Viking warrior to a ’90s finance bro) have some very strong opinions about what’s being done to their home.
Naturally, fun mayhem follows. Sam and the ghosts form a bond as they get to know each other. And though Jay can’t see what’s going on around him, thanks to a temporary possession and Sam as his go-between, he manages to forge his own special connections with their unexpected roommates, too.
The series—which finished up its first season in April; season 2 was ordered in January—came out of the gate strong, somehow balancing its ten-person ensemble with laugh-out-loud moments, emotional backstories, and unexpected mysteries. It’s the perfect dose of joy, whether you watch it weekly or saved it all to binge. (The first season is reairing Thursdays at 9/8c over the summer on CBS; additionally, the episodes are streaming on Paramount+.)
With production of season 2 just getting started, showrunners Joe Port and Joe Wiseman looked back at the first season of the series, sharing their favorite moments from each cast member (so far)—and offered a couple of teases about what’s to come…
