CBS's Sleeper Hit Sitcom of the Decade Is Officially Free on Streaming

This US adaptation of a British classic is well worth your time.

The short version

• Stream 'Ghosts' now for free on Pluto TV.
• Countless American adaptations of British classics have fallen woefully short of the source material.
• Either the British humor simply doesn’t translate well because of cultural differences — which is why the U.S. version of Gavin & Stacey was far too cringeworthy to enjoy — or it feels so similar that there’s no real reason to adapt it in the first place.

What happened

However, some adaptations are thoroughly enjoyable. More importantly, they respect the original premise, adapting what makes it special while adding their own twist.

Why it matters

One such adaptation does just that — and it's now available to stream for free on Pluto TV.
