I binged all six episodes and immediately went to the interwebs to find out if season 2 is coming (it is). What a delightful, intriguing and charming show Ludwig is! It's a cleverly written and well-delivered detective series that isn't dark and stressful with insane plot-twists at every turn. David Mitchell and Anna Maxwell Martin are perfectly cast with great rapport. In fact there isn't a casting choice I could gripe about. If I had any negative comment at all it's just that the series ending was a bit abrupt and a mite cobbled-together with quite a cliffhanger. So I am very grateful series 2 is greenlit!
If you like fun ghost stories and good comedy writing please watch this show. If you liked the original from the UK but, like me, felt like you needn't bother with this version, you need to absolutely watch this show.
The overall story follows the original version generally, but details and even some of the stories have changed. There are similar characters, but "North Americanized." The scout leader, matriarch of the house, and military guy are here with similar stories, but we've got a businessman, Viking, indigenous storyteller, hippie and roaring twenties jazz singer instead of a politician, stoneage guy, poet, peasant, and noblewoman. Instead of plague victims in the basement, we've got cholera victims. The annoying rich neighbors are prowling around. There's even a headless greaser from the 50s instead of a headless Elizabethan aristocrat...oddly though, greaser guy sort of just disappeared after a couple episodes (not a pun...he literally just never showed up again until later in the season) whereas Sir Robin has quite a few episodes to stumble around in the UK show.
There are even bonus ghosts that pop up in some of the episodes with their own stories intertwined into the plot.
British humor and American comedy is delivered differently; I grew up loving British comedy shows on PBS. My fear was that a US remake of a the original might lose the important nuances in "translation." BUT this version delivers the same vibe; it keeps the sweet, genuine family feel between the ghosts and the livings, it just has a different spin (and because of this it doesn't feel like you're rewatching every British episode over again).
So. When I need to re-binge Ghosts...now I've got two to choose from. I absolutely love both shows. (Although, at this time I've only been able to watch 3 of the 5 seasons of the UK version). I am glad to hear this one is being picked up for a fourth season.
