The downside of becoming a long-running series on television is the chance that the storytelling might start to feel a little stale. After several seasons (especially of a sitcom), viewers are already more than familiar with the characters. There’s also likely a rhythm that has been established with the writing, and an obvious formula that introduces a problem to be solved every episode. Of course, by the time the episode wraps up, all is right in the world. This formula has definitely been a successful one for CBS’ hit comedy, <em>Ghosts</em>. But after five seasons, the show is in dire need of something to shake things up. Luckily, a recent announcement has been made that states that Ghosts is making a change that will completely revitalize the series.
Ben Feldman Will Be Bumped Up to a Series Regular on ‘Ghosts’
The team behind Ghosts broke the news that Ben Feldman, who plays Kyle Rosenblat on the show, has been officially declared a series regular. Kyle first appeared on the show back in Season 4, when Pete Martino (Richie Moriarty) met him on one of his special trips away from Woodstone Manor. After discovering that the very-much-alive Kyle can also see and talk to ghosts just like Sam (Rose McIver), Pete brings Kyle back to meet his other spirit pals. Of course, hijinks occur, as with any supporting character that joins the kooky gang at Woodstone.
