I saw the trailer for this and am afraid it didn't seem a patch on the marvellous British version. Some things just don't translate so well but I'll definitely give it a watch - you never know, might be pleasantly surprised.

Am hopeful it will be watchable. Simon, Martha, Jim, Mat, Lawrence and Ben are all listed as executive producers.I saw the trailer for this and am afraid it didn't seem a patch on the marvellous British version.

Oooh, that is a positive sign!Am hopeful it will be watchable. Simon, Martha, Jim, Mat, Lawrence and Ben are all listed as executive producers.
Executive Producer doesn't always mean much, especially when it comes to American TV.Am hopeful it will be watchable. Simon, Martha, Jim, Mat, Lawrence and Ben are all listed as executive producers.
Afraid so. It's just a courtesy.Executive Producer doesn't always mean much, especially when it comes to American TV.
It's already on iPlayer!!The US version of Ghosts is being shown on BBC 3 this Sunday at 8.30pm
Watching the first episode. It's painful. It's not good.It's already on iPlayer!!
I just noticed and have watched 3 or 4 episodes. Don't love it. It's definitely not as bad as I was expecting though. It's barely funny.
The American way, quantity not quality. It's like it for every show, comedy or drama. We get 6 episodes they get 14-20 for a drama and 16-24 for comedy.18 episodes in series 1 of Ghosts US!
What do we get? 6 episodes per series?

Us too - my kid thinks it is OK but inferiorThis might fill the gap ( no matter how rubbish) of something we all watch as a family, as Ghosts was.
I've watched a couple more episodes. It's a bit better when you figure out who's who and don't try to equate them to their original characters but it's still not particularly funny. There are too many ghosts. The hippy and the native American seem a bit pointless.Only watched the first episode but not impressed so far. There are too many ghosts and none of them has much personality. It's like watching a bunch of people wearing costumes to a party. It's very rushed; they've crammed two original episodes into one that last about 20 minutes. And it's just not funny!
