Its too cheesy with the faux ghostbuster music. Watching the pilot on hulu, they got Adam Scott playing a poorly written verison of his Parks character. Craig is Craig but then again it was just the pilot.

Seeing Amber West Stevens on a new show hurt :mjcry:

Didn't realize the pilot was already on Hulu :ohhh:

Just watched the pilot, it moves fairly quickly in setting up the premise. There were some amusing moments, but I wasn't laughing throughout the episode. Comedies take time to develop though, and I could see it improving as the show goes on. I'm curious to see more episodes.

Craig Robinson is a bit player. He's only good in small roles. Dude needs to be like 5th billed in order to put forth a good performance. When they started making Darrel one of the main dudes on the Office, it suffered. He's cool as the least famous member of the Apatow crew, but that's about it.

Adam Scott is in too much shyt too, but I contend he's one of the better "straight men" in comedy right now, and also works better as a featured player. This show looks like crap.

I didn't enjoy this at all.

It felt corny, it looked super cheap and nothing about either character (or the wider cast) was even the least bit interesting.

Y'all still watching? According to this Dealine article from last week, they changed showrunners: ‘Ghosted’ Gets 6 More Episodes From Fox, Taps Paul Lieberstein As New Showrunner
Fox has ordered six more episodes of freshman action paranormal comedy Ghosted, bringing the Season 1 total to 16 episodes. As part of the pickup, former The Office executive producer/showrunner Paul Lieberstein has been brought in as executive producer/showrunner for the Back 6. Kevin Etten, who served as executive producer/showrunner on the first 10 episodes, is exiting.

There is no official decision yet on Fox’s well received new Marvel drama series The Gifted. Like space dramedy The Orville, it is eying a second-season renewal.

Ghosted, starring Craig Robinson and Adam Scott and created by Tom Gormican, was a hot package last development season. The project sailed through pilot season as the frontrunner on the comedy side and landed on the fall schedule with a Sunday slot. It was given a 10-episode order because of Fox’s fall needs, dictated by frequent preemptions. Ghosted has been a modest ratings performer though, according to Fox, it has improved its year-ago time period by +6% and ranks as the No.2 new comedy series in adults 18-49 this fall, behind CBS’ Young Sheldon, with a 1.7 Live+7 rating.

I hear the network had been looking for a tonal shift on the show, seeking to ground it as more of a workplace comedy, resulting in the hire of a new showrunner with extensive workplace comedy experience to land a back order. In addition to his lengthy stint on The Office, which he joined right after the pilot, Lieberstein also served as executive producer on HBO’s The Newsroom.

Ghosted is produced by 20th Century Fox Television. Craig Robinson, Adam Scott, Naomi Scott, Mark Schulman, Oly Obst, Paul Lieberstein and Gormican serve as executive producers. Jonathan Krisel directed the pilot episode, on which he also served as an executive producer.

I’m saying that there’s a video he made talking about a girl using a strap-on on him. You know because he deals in cac humor and that shyt in funny to them. But it’s actually a cover for him getting fukked by some local Chicago tranny porn star.

Edit:

It's ok, I'm still watching it. I knew ol girl from carmichael show would be "the white mans love interest" after that was cancelled. That'll be her career from now on (technically it always was before Carmichael show)
