Season 4 of CBS sitcom Ghosts has picked up right where it left off, and it’s looking better than ever. After a bumpy return last year with a shorter set of episodes following the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, the show is back and stronger than ever, with a strong return to its initial comedic roots.

The show’s fourth season opens with a bang, picking up right from the cliffhanger of Season 3, which saw the return of Isaac Higgintoot, played by Brandon Scott Jones, who was yanked into the dirt by a long-forgotten and feral spirit named Patience, portrayed by Mary Holland. The episode delves into the world of the afterlife, showing us the hilarious and often awkward moments that the main characters face as they try to navigate their new lives in the afterlife.

The introduction of Holland’s Patience, a Puritan from the late 1600s who does not believe in smiling, laughter, or anything that involves new ideas, adds a fresh dynamic to the show, and her arrival shakes things up, forcing the main characters to confront their own personal issues and insecurities. With her introduction, the show takes a turn for the darker, incorporating horror elements that elevate the show’s tension and add depth to the comedic moments.

The show also gets better at exploring the characters’ emotional depth, particularly Isaac’s, who struggles with his past and his relationships with his loved ones. The introduction of a new ghost, Flower, played by Sheila Carrasco, also adds a new layer to the story, as she shares more about the Puritan spirit while she was stuck in the well last season.

Overall, Season 4 of Ghosts is off to a great start, and fans of the show will be thrilled to see the return of the show’s lighthearted and humorous tone, mixed with a darker, more intense edge that brings new levels of tension and suspense to the show.
