Review: There are certainly no shows on TV more spirited than “Ghosts” right now, and there may be none funnier, writes critic John Anderson
no shows on TV more spirited than “Ghosts” right now and there may be none funnier. Making its debut with two episodes Thursday night, the show concerns a young couple, Jay and Sam , who inherit a rambling, ramshackle, 300-year-old mansion in upstate New York. No strings. No tax burden. Free. “There’s gotta be something wrong with it,” says Jay—at which point we already know enough to chuckle.
The “wrong” at the Woodstone Estate, from which Sam’s great-aunt Sophie has recently departed , is the octet of apparitions Sophie has left behind. The souls of the not-at-all-recently departed. They include Isaac , a Revolutionary War-era soldier who died an inglorious death ; a flamboyant ’20s jazz singer named Alberta , who may have been murdered; a sardonic Native-American, Sasappis ; a hippie named Flower ; and a cod-obsessed Viking named Thorfinn .
