Ghostsseason 4 gets an optimistic update from co-lead Utkarsh Ambudkar. The hit sitcom recently returned from its winter break to continue the rest ofGhostsseason 4. That has included episodes focused on Flower, while also placing a spotlight on Ambudkar through exploring Jay’s aspirations and his bond with Sass. There are several more episodes to go, including episodes centered on Hetty and Issac, though the show has yet to be renewed by CBS.
In an interview withScreenRant’s Joe Deckelmeier at the 2025 WGA Awards,Ambudkar struck an optimistic tone about the future ofGhosts. The actor discussed the show’s popularity with viewers, touching on why the sitcom has resonated thanks to its humor and ability to maintain a bit of an edge. In the quote, which is included below,Ambudkar concludes by saying: “We’ll do it for as long as you’ll have us.”
Utkarsh Ambudkar:It’s one of those things where we are beloved by people, and I haven’t experienced anything like it. Everywhere we go, especially if we’re together, we’re stopped by people out in the streets whose entire family watches Ghosts together. We’ve struck the right chord with viewers, where they wanted something that they could sit down and watch with their whole family, which wasn’t sugarcoated or saccharin and still had some edge; it has a lot of comedy and is still taking chances.
We all lucked out with our writing staff, with our showrunners, and with our cast. We shoot in Montreal, which is tough because I’ve got babies who miss their papa. But if you’ll have us, we’ll keep doing it! We’ll do it for as long as you’ll have us.
