CBS’s Ghosts tv show

[FigmentSpark]

There is a list online with several American shows that inspired British versions, but they are mostly non-scripted shows, such as game shows or reality shows. One notable exception was Law and Order UK. I assume in all of these cases that the cultural differences called for the British version as opposed to simply importing the American version, which is what usually occurs.

I usually prefer the British originals instead of the American remakes, but I also prefer the original shows instead of reboots. The originals just seem to gel better.

I haven’t heard of this Ghost show. I will have to check it out, both versions.

Broadchurch was interesting (season 1) because it was a British show starring David Tennant. Then, it was also an American show... starring David Tennant. He did a great job and I had to watch both, just to compare his skill and character. I loved both, although never watched any other season.

I just want Hetty to say once sometime in the series “Samantha as your 5 times great grandmother…..”. Sam’s reaction would be hilarious.

Very, but she already shocks Sam with her 18th century prudishness. I find that very funny.

19th century.

I thought she was born in the 18th and died in the 19th.

I thought she was born in the 18th and died in the 19th.

She was a Gilded age Hudson Valleyian. She would have been born around the 1820’s and died around 1900. Her husband was a Robber Baron. During that era, there were honest millionaires that made their money legally but Hetty’s husband represents those who made money through illegal immoral means (even by the standards of that time). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilded_Age

Ghosts is my favorite show. I'm so happy it was renewed for a third season.

It's a show where I actually like all the characters. They all have a "special something" that makes me love them. That doesn't usually happen for me. I just think it's funny, well written, and I am happy after watching it. Too much sadness and grief in the world right now, give me a little fun!
