Ghosts

LOS ANGELES - JULY 1: "Pilot" -- GHOSTS is a single-camera comedy about Samantha and Jay, a cheerful freelance journalist and up-and-coming chef from the city, respectively, who throw both caution and money to the wind when they decide to convert a huge rundown country estate they inherited into a bed & breakfastonly to find its inhabited by the many spirits of deceased residents who now call it home. The departed souls are a close-knit, eclectic group that includes a saucy Prohibition-era lounge singer (Danielle Pinnock); a pompous 1700s Militiaman (Brandon Scott Jones); a 60s hippie fond of hallucinogens (Sheila Carrasco); an overly upbeat 80s scout troop leader (Richie Moriarty); a cod-obsessed Viking explorer from 1009 (Devon Chandler Long); a slick 90s finance bro (Asher Grodman); a sarcastic and witty Native from the 1500s (Román Zaragoza); and a society woman and wife of an 1800s robber baron who is Samanthas ancestor (Rebecca Wisocky), to name a few. If the spirits were anxious about the commotion a renovation and B&B will create in their home, its nothing compared to when they realize Samantha is the first live person who can see and hear them. Debuts Thursday, Oct. 7 at 9:00 PM on the CBS Television Network and available to stream live and on demand on the CBS app and Paramount+.
