CBS has released official images for Ghosts Season 5 Episode 6, titled “Planes, Shanes and Automobiles.” The new episode airs Thursday, Nov. 20 (8:31–9:01 PM ET/PT) on CBS and streams live and on demand on Paramount+(Premium live/on-demand; Essential next-day).
In Ghosts Season 5 Episode 6, tensions rise when Jay struggles to keep the Woodstone chaos under control while Sam is away. Frustrated by his efforts, the ghosts decide to bring in a more “qualified” babysitter — Kyle — leading to new supernatural drama inside the mansion.
Meanwhile, Sam and Pete find themselves at odds during their book tour road trip. What starts as mild annoyance escalates into full-on friction, especially when an unexpected airline strike threatens their ability to return home in time for Thanksgiving.
Packed with holiday pressure, road-trip mishaps, and the signature Woodstone Mansion hijinks, Ghosts Season 5 Episode 6 delivers a mix of comedy, heart, and character-driven chaos.
Why “Planes, Shanes and Automobiles” Stands Out
This episode strengthens Season 5’s themes of:
✔ Sam & Pete’s evolving dynamic ✔ The ghosts meddling in the living world ✔ Thanksgiving-season emotional stakes ✔ Jay’s role in the mansion’s day-to-day chaos ✔ New character energy introduced by Kyle
For fans who love character-driven stories and holiday-adjacent comedy, Ghosts Season 5 Episode 6 is a highlight of the season.
About the Series
GHOSTS follows Samantha (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar), a city couple who turn the inherited Woodstone Mansion into a bed & breakfast. Their dream quickly becomes complicated when they learn the historic estate is inhabited by ghosts from multiple eras — all with big personalities and unfinished business.
The eclectic spirit ensemble includes:
Alberta (Danielle Pinnock), a confident Prohibition-era lounge singer
Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), a melodramatic 18th-century officer
Flower (Sheila Carrasco), a free-spirited ’60s hippie
Pete (Richie Moriarty), an enthusiastic ’80s scout leader
Thorfinn (Devan Chandler Long), a Viking with a loud heart
Trevor (Asher Grodman), a pantsless ’90s finance bro
Sasappis (Román Zaragoza), a clever 16th-century storyteller
Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky), an uptight 19th-century society woman
Their interactions with the living — especially after the B&B opens and Jay’s restaurant launches — fuel the comedy each week.
