Utkarsh Ambudkar on Directing 'Ghosts' Season 5 & Jay's Unchanged Life After Near-Death Experience (2025)

Utkarsh Ambudkar, the star of the CBS comedy series 'Ghosts', discusses his role as Jay and his upcoming directorial debut in Season 5. Despite nearly losing his soul to the devil, Jay remains unchanged, much to the frustration of his character's fans. Ambudkar reveals that Jay's reluctance to learn from his mistakes is a key part of the show's comedic appeal, and he believes this is what makes Jay and Sam one of TV's best couples. As a director, Ambudkar aims to create a collaborative, joyful, and efficient environment, drawing on his strengths and those of his cast mates. He's excited to explore the show's potential and to work with the talented crew and creative team. The upcoming Halloween and Christmas episodes promise to be special, with a mummy and new ghosts making an appearance, and some iconic Christmas films' themes and storylines finding their way into the 'Ghosts' universe. The first episode of Season 5 is now streaming on Paramount+, offering two subscription plans: the ad-supported Essential plan for $7.99/month and the ad-free Premium plan for $12.99/month.
