Last season, we saw Pete in Jay’s body and Nancy possess Sam. In earlier seasons, we saw Hetty possess Jay, and Thorfinn take over Sam, too. Possession has become a fun tradition on Ghosts, and as we look forward to its return on the 2025 TV schedule, it’s easy to wonder which ghost will take over which living next. Well, Utkarsh Ambudkar knows exactly what he wants to happen next, and it’s so delightfully unhinged that I want it on screen ASAP.
Let’s not forget, Jay has some serious issues with a demon that he’ll have to deal with in Season 5 of Ghosts (thanks, Elias). However, I’m sure there will be room for some shenanigans like possession, too. So, with his wishful-thinking cap seemingly on, Utkarsh Ambudkar pitched his idea for who could take over Jay’s body next to Collider Forces without hesitation:
Flower, all day. I want Rose to get possessed by Isaac. I want Flower, I want to fucking do my little weirdo dance. Oh, and then what if, as Flower, I try to put the moves on Thorfinn? Come on? Wait, I wouldn’t be able to see him, though. But, what if as Flower now, I try to have an orgy because I got my body.
First of all, his train of thought here is hilarious. I would also love to see Flower as Jay trying to flirt with Thor. However, sadly, that’s not possible since Jay can’t see him. But he can certainly try. It’d be so funny to see Flower in Jay’s body attempting to have a moment with Thor when in reality, there’s no one there, or she’s unknowingly putting the moves on another one of the ghosts.
Ghosts has been renewed for two more seasons already, which gives it the guaranteed time to explain some of our biggest questions about the ghosts, as well as silly storylines like this. So, there’s a lot to look forward to when the series returns this fall.
However, in the meantime, you can imagine this wild story Ambudkar pitched and go back and watch the other possession episodes of this CBS sitcom with a Paramount+ subscription.
