When the showrunners and stars of CBS’ Ghosts gathered at Comic-Con today to reflect back on the hit sitcom’s first season, they offered a few hints as to what’s to come in Season 2.Writer-EP Joe Port noted that the first season of the series starring Rose McIver and Utkarsh Ambudkar as married couple Samantha and Jay had “a natural destination”—that being the pair “trying to get this house ready” and open their B&B. “Now,” he continued, “it’s going to be open and it’s going to be the story of this young couple and their struggles with this business.”The CBS comedy is adapted from the British series of the same name, created by Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond for BBC One.
It watches as Samantha and Jay learn that their new dream house is inhabited by ghosts from different eras that only the former can see and hear—among them, Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Pete (Richie Moriarty), Alberta (Danielle Pinnock), Trevor (Asher Grodman), Sasappis (Román Zaragoza), Flower (Sheila Carrasco), Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky) and Thorfinn (Devan Chandler Long).Joining Port and the show’s 10 aforementioned central cast members in San Diego today for the panel moderated by actor Matt Walsh (who appeared in Season 1 as Elias Woodstone) was writer-EP Joe Wiseman, who teased that “we’re going to learn a little bit more” in Season 2 about each ghost’s backstory—starting to further examine “lots of fun mysteries.” He said that we’ll see Prohibition-era jazz singer Alberta singing in a club and find out more about her death, while meeting “some suspects,” also confirming that each ghost has a special power, and that the show will “continue to explore” them all.
