Ghosts (American TV series)

Ghosts was the first post-watershed comedy by the ensemble, although some television critics said that it was suitable for adults and children alike, and it was moved to a pre-watershed slot from series 2 onwards. Reviews were positive, with critics appreciating its high joke rate, premise, and strong ensemble. It is produced by Monumental Pictures, part of ITV Studios, in association with Them There and filmed on location at West Horsley Place in Surrey. A tie-in book, The Button House Archives, was released on 26 October 2023.
