The CBS sitcom Ghosts has captured audiences with its blend of humor, heart, and supernatural shenanigans. As fans eagerly await Ghosts Season 5, speculation is swirling about the release date, returning cast, and potential plot developments. Here's a comprehensive look at everything we know so far about Ghosts Season 5, Ghosts Season 5 Release Date Speculation
While CBS has not officially confirmed the exact premiere date for Ghosts Season 5, multiple sources indicate a likely fall 2025 release. This aligns with the show's previous seasonal schedule, as Seasons 2, 3, and 4 premiered in late September or early October. For instance, Season 4 debuted on October 17, 2024, suggesting a similar timeline for Season 5. Industry reports, including those from TV Insider and What to Watch, point to a fall 2025 slot, with October 2025 being a strong contender. Ghosts Season 5 Expected Cast
The core cast of Ghosts is expected to return, bringing back the beloved living and spectral residents of Woodstone Mansion. Based on information from the show's history and recent reports, here's who we anticipate seeing: Rose McIver as Sam Arondekar : The freelance journalist who can see and communicate with the ghosts after a near-death experience.
Utkarsh Ambudkar as Jay Arondekar : Sam's husband, who, while unable to see the ghosts, is deeply involved in their antics and the couple's B&B venture.
Brandon Scott Jones as Isaac Higgintoot : The Revolutionary War ghost with a penchant for drama and newfound personal revelations.
Richie Moriarty as Pete Martino : The cheerful 1980s scout leader ghost.
Danielle Pinnock as Alberta Haynes : The 1920s jazz singer with a larger-than-life personality.
Asher Grodman as Trevor Lefkowitz : The 1990s finance bro ghost with a knack for mischief.
Román Zaragoza as Sasappis : The sarcastic Lenape ghost with a sharp wit.
Sheila Carrasco as Flower Montero : The free-spirited 1960s hippie ghost.
Rebecca Wisocky as Hetty Woodstone : The Gilded Age matriarch and Sam's ancestor.
Devan Chandler Long as Thorfinn: The Viking ghost with a love for storytelling and meat. Ghosts Season 5 Potential Plot Details
While specific plot details for Ghosts Season 5 remain under wraps, the Season 4 finale provides clues about potential storylines. The cliffhanger involving Jay and Elias, as mentioned by cast members in a TV Insider post, hints at unresolved tensions that could carry over. Will Jay gain the ability to see ghosts, or will Elias's schemes disrupt the Woodstone B&B? These questions are likely to drive the early episodes.
Based on the show's formula, Season 5 will likely blend episodic humor with overarching character arcs. Expect new ghostly mysteries, deeper dives into the ghosts' backstories, and further development of Sam and Jay's bed-and-breakfast business.

Drake Hogestyn's ‘Days of Our Lives' character killed off 8 months after actor's death
Like sands through the hourglass. 'Days of Our Lives' officially killed off Drake Hogestyn's character, John Black, on Monday. The emotional episode came eight months after Hogestyn passed away from pancreatic cancer at the age of 70 on September 28, 2024, and it saw Black flatline in a hospital with his wife, Dr. Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall), close by his side. 7 Drake Hogestyn as John Black and Deidre Hall as Marlena Evans on 'Days of Our Lives.' Peacock 7 The actor portraying John Black in his farewell episode was completely covered in gauze to sidestep the fact that the character was no longer being played by Hogestyn. Peacock 'You have put up the bravest fight I have ever seen,' Evans told her dying husband in the character's final scene. 'I know you're weary. I know you're suffering. If you need to go, it's okay.' Black was injured in a lab explosion days before his death as he tried to help Steve (Stephen Nichols) discover a drug to save Bo (Peter Reckell). His body was completely covered in gauze to sidestep the fact that the character was no longer being played by Hogestyn. 7 Hogestyn joined 'Days of Our Lives' in 1986, appeared on the hit soap opera for 38 years and filmed over 4,200 episodes. ©NBC/Courtesy Everett Collection 'We will always have you in our memories,' Hall's character, who married Hogestyn's character six times, said. 'We will always hold you in our hearts. You can rest now.' A montage of the two 'Days of Our Lives' characters' decades-long love story also played just before Black flatlined and was officially killed off. 'I know. I know,' Hall, 77, wrote on Instagram after the episode aired this week. 'Hardest day ever.' 7 Hogestyn and Hall's soap opera characters married six times in the series. ©NBC/Courtesy Everett Collection Reckell, who returned to 'Days of Our Lives' as Bo for the first time since 2023 for the touching episode, said there was 'no acting required' when it came time to say goodbye to Hogestyn's character in the wake of the actor's actual passing. 'It's still difficult to talk about because Drake touched everybody in his sphere so closely, and he was my brother and one of my best friends,' Reckell, 70, told TV Insider. 'Having his memorial, there was no acting required in those scenes, because you're saying things as the character that parallel your feelings in your personal relationship.' 'When I went to John's memorial and all these emotions came up, I just wanted to run away and be by myself and feel those feelings,' he added. 'To have to do it as a character was really difficult.' 7 'I know. I know,' Hall wrote on Instagram after the emotional episode aired. 'Hardest day ever.' Peacock The popular soap opera's executive producer, Ken Corday, previously revealed that John Black's death scene was a direct result of Hogestyn's real-life battle with pancreatic cancer. Corday, 74, told Soap Opera Digest in November that Hogestyn 'signed off' on his character's death scene shortly before he succumbed to his diagnosis. Hogestyn's final 'Days of Our Lives' episode before his death aired on September 9, 2024. It saw his character share several emotional moments with his on-screen grandson, Tate (Leo Howard). 7 Hogestyn as John Black and Hall as Dr. Marlena Evans during Smokey Robinson's Season 41 guest appearance on the popular soap opera. ©NBC/Courtesy Everett Collection The show's official Instagram page announced Hogestyn's heartbreaking passing on September 28, just one day before his 71st birthday. 'It's with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Drake Hogestyn,' the statement read. 'He was thrown the curveball of his life when he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but he faced the challenge with incredible strength and determination.' 7 Hogestyn passed away from pancreatic cancer at the age of 70 on September 28, 2024. Peacock 'After putting up an unbelievable fight, he passed peacefully surrounded by loved ones,' it continued. 'He was the most amazing husband, father, papa and actor. He loved performing for the Days audience and sharing the stage with the greatest cast, crew, and production team in the business.' 'We love him and we will miss him all the Days of our Lives,' the statement concluded. Hogestyn joined 'Days of Our Lives' in 1986. He appeared on the hit soap opera for 38 years and filmed over 4,200 episodes.

Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune are headed to streaming
Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune are coming to streaming for the first time. The two game shows will arrive on Hulu and Peacock in September, according to a report from The New York Times. Under the multi-year deal, new episodes of Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune will appear on both streaming services one day after they air on linear TV. The agreement will include older episodes of each show, too. For decades, Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune have been staples on linear TV, and their expansion to Peacock and Hulu is part of a broader pattern that's bringing key series, like WWE's Monday Night Raw, to streaming. As pointed out by The Hollywood Reporter, this streaming deal isn't directly connected to the legal battle involving Sony — the producer of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! — and its distributor, CBS. Last year, Sony sued CBS over claims it breached their agreement by not doing enough to boost revenue from licensing the shows. A judge granted Sony the rights to distribute Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! in April, but an appellate court ruled last week that CBS can keep distributing the shows during the legal battle.

Joy Reid floats speculation that her race, 'anxiety' surrounding Trump played role in MSNBC firing
Ex-MSNBC host Joy Reid spoke out about her show being canceled on Monday, speculating that her race and network "anxiety" surrounding President Donald Trump played a role in her ultimately being fired from the liberal network. "I try not to speculate too much publicly because, again, I can't get inside the minds of other people. But I can tell you what other people have speculated about… There are lots of people at the network who are critical of Donald Trump. I mean, and they're still critical of him, I'm assuming, you know. So I don't think that's [it], but I do know there is a lot of anxiety both there and, I think, in every media. We're seeing it at CBS," she said, referring to Trump's lawsuit against the network over a "60 Minutes" interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris. Reid spoke with Katie Couric in a video posted on her Substack page and on her YouTube channel. Reid's MSNBC show was canceled earlier this year. "We're seeing it at ABC, where allegedly 'The View' hosts were told not to go so hard on Trump. There's a push for people to, hey, do less Trump. Do more entertainment. Don't be hard on him," the former MSNBC host said, noting reporting that ABC's "The View" hosts were told to tone down their political discussions. Jen Psaki, The Ex-biden Flack Who Defended His Mental Fitness, Launches Expanded Role At Msnbc Couric pointed out that there was no difference between Reid and liberal hosts Nicolle Wallace or Rachel Maddow, to which Reid responded, "only in one way was I different. I'm a Black woman doing the thing." Read On The Fox News App "I think that there is a difference for Trump in hearing the kinds of criticisms specifically out of a Black woman, it bothers him in a way it doesn't bother him like anything else. He's got this sort of tick about race, you know, and about, sort of criticism coming specifically from a Black woman because we've seen him lay out and dish out real abuse against Black women journalists," Reid said during her conversation with Couric. "I did a specific thing, which was, I tried to constantly unpack the racial history of the country, which is very much against the sort of Project 2025 thing. And it's something I can do in a certain capacity because of my background, because not only am I a Black woman, but I come from immigrant parents who come from what Donald Trump would consider s---hole countries, but that have a take on race that is different," Reid continued. Joy Reid Says Black Women No Longer Interested In 'Saving America' After Betrayal By White Female Voters Reid's show was replaced with "The WeekNight", an ensemble program featuring former Kamala Harris spokesperson Symone Sanders-Townsend, Alicia Menendez, the daughter of disgraced former New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez, and Michael Steele, the former Republican National Committee chair who now staunchly opposes the GOP. MSNBC's new lineup has struggled in its first month, with Psaki shedding half the audience her predecessors averaged in the same timeslot, and with its other new programming struggling to attract viewers. MSNBC and ABC's "The View" did not immediately return requests for comment. Reid said prior to her show's cancellation, she was told that her show was "down less" in ratings than any other MSNBC show, aside from Maddow's. Reid and her former primetime colleagues faced a major ratings decline after Trump won the election. Click Here For More Coverage Of Media And Culture Her show, "The Reidout," shed 47% of its total audience, averaging just 759,000 viewers after averaging 1.4 million viewers throughout 2024 leading up to Election Day, "Our show was down less than any other primetime show. We were down, other than Rachel Maddow, we were down the least. So we were just told that we were holding on pretty well. And, you know, it's not like the ratings have gotten better since I've been gone. So I can tell you, honestly, I even had my exit interview and no one has told me why I was fired. I have no idea," she said. Reid said MSNBC's reasoning was "scripted" and "perfunctory," and explained that she had started being careful on social media. "We were being very careful, and I was trying to be more careful about anything on social media, because I know there was a real anxiety about social media, very much an anxiety about anything on social media," she said. "I don't know, I genuinely was not told."
