CBS Premieres St. Patrick's Day Episode of 'Ghosts' in Season 5 The hit comedy series "Ghosts" returns with a special St. Patrick’s Day episode tonight, marking the 13th episode of its fifth season on CBS. The show follows Samantha and Jay, a couple who inherit a decaying country estate and attempt to convert it into a bed and breakfast, only to uncover its haunted past. The series blends humor with heartfelt storytelling, focusing on themes of connection and self-discovery through the interactions between the living and the spectral inhabitants of the home. The ensemble of ghosts includes a diverse cast of historical figures, each with distinct personalities and backstories. Thorfinn, a Viking from 1009 AD, is the oldest ghost on the property and possesses the ability to manipulate electricity after being struck by lightning. Hetty Woodstone, a 19th-century society woman and Sam’s ancestor, serves as the original “lady of the manor.” Isaac Higginfoot, a closeted Revolutionary War officer, grapples with his legacy amid the fame of Alexander Hamilton. Pete Martino, a 1980s Pinecone Trooper leader, died from an accidental arrow wound, while Trevor Lefkowitz, a 1990s Wall Street broker, is forever stuck in his signature pantsless state. Alberta Haynes, a Prohibition-era singer, remains a mystery to her fate, and Sasappis, a Lenape Native American from the 16th century, often incites chaos for entertainment. Flower, a 1960s hippie, met her end after a hallucinogen-fueled attempt to hug a bear. In tonight’s episode, titled “St. Hetty’s Day 2: The Help,” a staffing crisis during St. Patrick’s Day forces Hetty to temporarily assume a managerial role at the restaurant. This rare opportunity allows her to interact with the living again, while Kyle, a new guardian of the ghosts, navigates an amusing supernatural dynamic.#ghosts #cbs #thorfinn #hetty_woodstone #isaac_higginfoot
