Ghosts Season 4 Episode 1: Isaac Confronts His Past and New ‘Patience’
By: August Tales
The beloved CBS series Ghosts is returning with its highly anticipated fourth season, premiering on October 17th. Fans have been eagerly awaiting new episodes, and during the CBS panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, some intriguing updates about the upcoming season were unveiled. Co-created by Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, the show has consistently delivered laughs, heartwarming moments, and ghostly drama, and season four promises to raise the stakes.
Exciting Character Developments
A major revelation from the panel was that Utkarsh Ambudkar’s character, Jay, will finally be able to see the ghosts this season. This long-awaited development will certainly shift the dynamics in the mansion, as Jay becomes an active participant in the ghostly antics. Additionally, Ghosts fans will see guest appearances from Mary Holland (Nightbitch, Big Door Prize) and Dean Norris (Breaking Bad, The Parenting). Holland will play a recurring role as a character named Patience, while Norris takes on the role of Frank, Samantha’s estranged father.
Holland’s portrayal of Patience will be particularly central to the season premiere. As the title of the episode suggests, “Patience” will focus on her character, whose presence is set to create some serious upheaval for the mansion’s residents—both living and dead.
The Mysterious Patience
Patience, a stern Puritan ghost from the late 1600s, was banished from her village for her overzealous ways. After centuries of solitude underground, she resurfaces to cause havoc for Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones). Last season left viewers on a major cliffhanger when Patience abducted Isaac, setting the stage for a thrilling confrontation between the two in the upcoming season.
In the first episode of season four, Isaac must face Patience for the first time since her burial, and tensions will be high as the other ghosts scramble to rescue him. The reveal that Patience has been hiding beneath the mansion adds a new layer of intrigue to the show’s ever-expanding ghost mythology.
Tension Builds with New Guest Stars
Dean Norris will guest star as Frank, Samantha’s estranged father, whose unexpected visit to Woodstone triggers unresolved issues between him and his daughter. The emotionally charged interactions between Samantha (Rose McIver) and Frank will add depth to her character’s arc, while Frank’s presence promises to stir up tension among the rest of the Woodstone household.
With Jay finally seeing the ghosts and the introduction of new characters like Patience and Frank, season four is shaping up to be one of the most compelling seasons yet. Fans can expect the familiar mix of humor, heart, and supernatural shenanigans that have made Ghosts a standout hit.
A Promising Start to the New Season
In addition to the returning main cast, including Rose McIver, Utkarsh Ambudkar, Brandon Scott Jones, Richie Moriarty, Danielle Pinnock, and Asher Grodman, the show will continue to blend ghostly mischief with heartfelt storytelling. The fourth season will explore new character dynamics and deepen the relationships between the living and the dead, keeping audiences hooked with its unique blend of comedy and drama.
As the premiere date approaches, anticipation is building for what promises to be an exciting new chapter in the Ghosts saga. With its captivating mix of historical figures, family drama, and spectral comedy, Ghosts remains one of the most engaging shows on television.
Be sure to catch the season premiere on October 17th on CBS!
