For those watching the Super Bowl on CBS, it will be more than just a sporting event. The popular series Ghosts has its own movie-themed plans for the day.
The CBS hit comedy unveils a Super Bowl commercial that has its lead characters Sam and Jay along with their phantom companions enjoy a film session, featuring the iconic 1990 romantic fantasy thriller Ghost. Written by the show’s very own Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, the ad is brimming with humorous commentary from the ghostly characters regarding the film’s storyline, as reported by our sister site Deadline.
When the character Thor voices his exasperation over the fact that Demi Moore’s character in the movie is skeptical about her husband’s spectral existence, Sam comforts Jay, asserting her ability to sense him even beyond death. This comes with the amusing downside of no longer being able to physically touch him.
Alberta seizes the opportunity to claim the “ghost” version of Jay, with Hetty and Flower following suit. Jay turns out to be quite the desired ghost, according to their light-hearted banter.
Pete expresses his anticipation for Jay’s death, humorously noting that it would allow Jay to finally appreciate his witty remarks during movie sessions.
As the group debates between watching the championship football game or continuing with Ghost, it is clear that not all are impressed by the intricacies of the sport. Instead, they focus on scrutinizing the implausibility of Patrick Swayze’s penny-floating scene from the film.
