After a two-month hiatus, Ghosts, an adaptation of the original British series, is back, featuring Rose McIver and Utkarsh Ambudkar as a young couple who find themselves living in a mansion inhabited by ghosts visible only to McIver’s character.
The upcoming episode, titled “The Others,” promises to introduce new spirits and delve deeper into the evolving relationships among the characters.

Ghosts has gained substantial acclaim, often being hailed as one of the best modern sitcoms. With its charmingly unique premise, the show brilliantly blends laugh-out-loud comedy with heartfelt moments that reveal the complexities of its ghostly characters. The series strikes a remarkable balance, juxtaposing the chaos of living with a quirky ensemble of spirits from different historical backgrounds against touching narratives that resonate with viewers.
Despite indications of slight wear as Season 5 progresses, Ghosts has continued to receive positive feedback, maintaining its reputation as a top comedy. The season has expanded its universe with the introduction of new characters like Patience and Carol, bringing fresh challenges to the storylines. The exceptional episodes, especially the recent two-part Christmas special, highlight the show’s ability to combine humor with emotional depth and have further captured audience interest.
In exciting news for fans, Ghosts is confirmed to return for a sixth season following a two-season order issued in Season 4, ensuring that the series will air at least through the 2026-2027 television season. This secures the show’s future, especially considering that the original BBC version ran for five seasons.
Ghosts’ mid-season premiere will mark a return to screens for viewers, with new episodes scheduled to be released weekly on Thursdays. As anticipation builds for this latest installment, fans can look forward to more laughter and surprises in the hauntingly entertaining world of Ghosts.
