I Really Hope Ghosts Season 4 Revives A Real-Life Character Trend The Show Nailed Twice Already
I can't wait for Ghosts season 4 and I hope the sitcom brings back one clever historical comedy trope that has paid off twice, since this clever approach takes advantage of the show’s unique premise. (https://screenrant.com/ghosts-season-4-real-life-character-trend-revive/)

I completely agree. It's such a talented ensemble.

And as fun as the UK version is, I find that I enjoy the US version more than the UK version. Though that could be because I saw the US first...

WORTH WATCHING: ..., Have Patience with ‘Ghosts,’ ... (https://www.tvinsider.com/1157362/georgie-mandys-first-marriage-ghosts-elsbeth-matlock-lincoln-lawyer/)

"On a very busy Thursday, CBS launches its new lineup including the Young Sheldon spinoff Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, Ghosts (with Patience the Puritan causing havoc), the reinvented Matlock and Elsbeth, with Nathan Lane in the season opener."

Ghosts
CBS
SEASON PREMIERE
8:30/7:30c
For the most part, the ghosts on this terrific sitcom aren’t all that scary (except maybe for Crash, the headless one). That all changes when the severe Puritan ghost Patience (Mary Holland, terrific) enters the picture in Season 4. Stranded alone in the dirt since 1895 thanks to Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Patience vengefully pulled him into her dark world in last season’s cliffhanger, on the heels of his dumping Redcoat mate Nigel (John Hartman) at the altar. While the other spirits rally to retrieve their friend, Isaac pledges to change his selfish ways. We’ll see how long that lasts.

Ghosts
CBS
8:30/7:30c
“She is a lot,” huffs Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky) about their latest arrival, the judgmental Puritan spirit called Patience (Mary Holland), who’s testing everyone’s patience. The conflict becomes even more acute when Sam’s (Rose McIver) once-distant dad (Breaking Bad’s Dean Norris) visits Woodstone with his girlfriend (Melinda McGraw), a situation that Patience finds so abominable she reacts in a way that alarms everyone, living and dead. In other spectral news, Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones) needs to break more bad news to Nigel (John Hartman), the mopey Redcoat he left at the altar.

Thursday Ratings: ‘Ghosts’ on CBS Leads Halloween Night Linear Telecasts Among Key Demos
THURSDAY FINAL NATIONALS (https://programminginsider.com/thursday-ratings-ghosts-on-cbs-leads-halloween-night-linear-telecasts-among-key-demos/)

— Top Prime Time Telecasts in Total Viewers:
Ghosts (CBS, 8:31 PM-9:01 PM, 30 min.) • 5.818 million viewers

— Top Prime Time Telecasts in Adults 18-49:
Ghosts (CBS, 8:31 PM-9:01 PM, 30 min.) • 0.48/6 A18-49 rating/share (Range: 0.637-0.650 million adults 18-49; 0.60/8 F18-49, 0.35/4 M18-49)

I never really thought about it so it's interesting to see that Ghosts has almost twice as many real time 18-49 female viewers as 18-49 male. Though the likely reason is that more 18-49 males were watching NFL Thursday Night Football in real time as opposed to watching Ghosts at a later time. It would be quite interesting to see what the demo breakdown is after the +7 ratings are factored in...
