CBS has given Ghosts fans some very good news. The show has received a two-season renewal from the studio through the 2026/2027 season.
Ghosts stars Rose McIver and Utkarsh Ambudkar as a married couple formerly from New York. When they inherit a country house, their joy is short-lived as the property is dilapidated and inhabited by ghosts from different eras of American history. The series has been well-received by critics and fans, and holds a 97% average rating on Rotten Tomatoes aggregated from its first four seasons.
“This season, our new and returning series continue to showcase CBS as the leader in launching and programming the biggest hits with mass appeal for broadcast and streaming viewers,” Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment, said while announcing the studio’s renewed shows.
“These returning shows represent a mix of long-standing hits and a new generation of fan favorites. In collaboration with our extraordinarily talented partners in front of and behind the camera, we look forward to delivering another successful season,” she added.
Ghosts’ Multi-Season Renewal Shows Studio’s Faith In The Sitcom
As one of CBS’ highest-rated comedy series, it may not be surprising that Ghosts received a multi-season renewal. It is certainly a sign that the studio recognizes how well the show has been resonating with fans. Although its fate was initially uncertain, Ghosts’ stars recently expressed their own confidence that the show was more likely to be renewed than canceled.
“We’ve struck the right chord with viewers, where they wanted something that they could sit down and watch with their whole family, which wasn’t sugarcoated or saccharin and still had some edge. It has a lot of comedy and is still taking chances,” Utkarsh Ambudkar said.
Rose McIver also sees a long future for the series. “I think what I was excited by, as a story engine, I just think there’s so much room. I could see the longevity,” she said. “Yeah, it was going to be a risk, and it’s not a simple project by any stretch, but I just think there’s so much room to explore,” the actor added.
Ghosts Season 4 is streaming on Paramount+.
