. - Sam’s powers made Jay jealous in the past, which resulted in his desire to communicate with the mansion’s ghosts in future episodes.
- Jay’s newfound ability to see ghosts in Season 4 could bring character development as it shows him how Sam struggles with the constant presence of ghosts.
Although Ghosts The big twist in season 4 is unexpected; the CBS sitcom already hinted at this development in season 2. Ghosts is a sitcom based on the 2019 British series of the same name. Ghosts revolves around Sam and Jay, a couple who inherit a mansion from a distant relative. When Sam has a near-death experience, she gains the ability to see and speak to the ghosts that inhabit the house. The ghosts of the CBS series Ghosts are a diverse group that includes a surprisingly friendly Viking, a bitchy Civil War soldier, and a free-spirited hippie.
While Ghosts Season 4 promises more of the show’s light-hearted sitcom antics, the series will also change up its formula in this outing. Patience, the creepy Puritan who kidnapped Isaac in the cliffhanger ending of Season 3, will play a larger role in Season 4. In the meantime, Ghosts will also introduce Dean Norris as Sam’s previously unseen father. These developments are exciting, but they’re not as series-shattering as the news that Jay will finally see ghosts in Season 4. While this is a major twist, the series already hinted at this in Season 2, Episode 6.

Sam’s powers made Jay jealous in season 2 of Ghosts
In Season 2, Episode 6, “The Baby Björn,” Sam admitted to Jay that she sometimes just blocks out the ghosts when she gets tired of them. When he told her that she didn’t appreciate her powers, Jay hinted that he wanted to see ghosts in season 2. Jay told Sam that she didn’t deserve her power, a bitter comment that proves the character felt excluded from the house’s bustling ghost population. Ghosts The big twist in Season 4 seems to come out of nowhere, but Jay’s desire to communicate with the mansion’s ghosts goes back at least two seasons.
This is understandable, as Jay is a more level-headed and considered character than the flighty, impulsive Sam. Jay can become frustrated when Sam doesn’t communicate clearly what the ghosts are up to, and when she takes matters into her own hands instead of enlisting his help. Sometimes it’s easier to communicate directly with the ghosts than to keep her partner in the loop. This is especially true given the chaos that Sam and Jay’s lives usually have. However, it inevitably leads to Jay feeling left out of the proceedings, leading to him voicing his displeasure in “The Baby Bjorn.”

While Ghosts The changes in Season 4 include more than just Jay’s new ability, this storyline could lead to a real evolution for Sam’s partner. In both “The Baby Bjorn” and other episodes, Jay hints that he wouldn’t block out the ghosts if he could see them. However, he could quickly learn how hard that is when he’s inundated by their constant chatter. Sam’s occasional absent-mindedness could be a blessing in disguise, as it allows her to forget about the ghosts from time to time, but Jay could learn that he doesn’t share that ability.
