BTW, I was just searching for something to watch and discovered that Paramount+ now has all five series of the original UK program, if you’ve never seen the whole thing. (The first three series were available on MAX before CBS adapted it for the US and then the fourth series was available on Paramount+ earlier this year.) ---

A thousand times, yes. I really like the US Ghosts but the UK production is superb. ---

I also get that it’s possible for Indians in the US to be Christians. It is also possible for Indians in India to be Christian. Sure it is only 3% or so, but of 1,4 Billion, that is a lot.

> [@solost](#): > > That is great news, thanks! I’ve been waiting for the 5th season of the UK Ghosts to show up somewhere. Yes, me too. I saw the first series of UK Ghosts before seeing the US one, and I preferred the UK version—though I’ve come to be fond of the US one, too. Thanks, @Dewey_Finn, for alerting us! ---

Binged season 5 of the UK Ghosts over the holidays, which was good timing since the last one was a Christmas episode. I think, as good as the US Ghosts is, that the UK Ghosts has the edge over it. It was good seeing Robin again-- he was always my favorite character. I like his character much better than his US equivalent, Thorfinn. Turns out (very minor spoiler): the UK season 5 is the series ender-- the final S.5 episode is definitely the last one ☹ It ends on a nice note, though. ---

And now we know the “ghost power” of the basement ghosts (inducing temporary cholera). I read someplace over the holidays that we’re going to learn Hetty’s power sometime this season. I don’t know which other ghosts still have unmentioned powers. ---

**Ghost Power** Thor: Manipulate electricity Sessappis: Insert himself into Livings’ dreams Isaac: Fart smell Heddy: ??? Alberta: Livings can hear her hum/sing under the right circumstances, so can electronic devices Flower: Make Livings high Pete: Can leave the ghost boundary Trevor: Can manipulate objects/press buttons with great effort **Cause of Death** Thor: Struck by lightning Sessappis: ??? Isaac: Dysentery Heddy: Suicide by choking Alberta:Poisoned by Heddy’s son (or was it grandson?) Flower: Attacked by bear Pete: Arrow through the neck Trevor: Heart exploded from drug cocktail – That leaves Sass as the only Ghost whose cause of death hasn’t been revealed, and Heddy as the only Ghost whose Ghost Power hasn’t been revealed. Except for the side ghosts, like Bjorn, Patience, 80s Girl, Crash, etc. (although some of their causes of death are kind of obvious). ---

No as far as I know she’s still around. Her boyfriend got sucked off right as she and he were about to get down to it. She got pissed and went back to sleep. ---

I don’t know that that is Pete’s ‘Ghost Power’ - in the sense that all of the other Ghost Power’s interact with the world of the living - his doesn’t. It is a power/ability - sure. ---

Are you talking about when the contractor forced Jay’s hand about the “silent partner (Isaac)”? Yeah that was kind of tough to watch. ---

> [@HeyHomie](#): > > Are you talking about when the contractor forced Jay’s hand about the “silent partner (Isaac)”? Yeah that was kind of tough to watch. Lordy, can we please be done with the Kelsey character? I never re-watch the first episode she was in and I didn’t appreciate her in this one either, though there was other good stuff to enjoy. As much as I like this show, I keep coming back to the question of who are they trying to appeal to? Just like the UK version, it’s meant to be family friendly, which for the most part it is. In fact, sometimes I feel like the dialogue and humor is really dumbed down for kids, then we get an episode featuring a ghost getting herself off on the washing machine. I really wish some of the UK cast would guest. Not as their Ghost characters; just random, kooky characters like when Matthew Baynton played Pete in the Dumb Deaths Ep.
