What the hey...
This thread can be used for the current seasons, now running, of both the BBC and CBS versions.
I'll say this....the CBS version: only one who had me rooting for a Victorian female ghost and a washing machine.

Had to look twice and wonder "who's Stephanie," but then I was like, oh yeah, Fanny Button (huh huh, you said...) I need to watch everything from the second Christmas special with Jennifer Saunders and up. Hopefully HBO Max doesn't consider the series a tax write-off. Charlie? Did you mean Mike? See, I thought with the end to Season 1 of the CBS version... {Spoiler} something like that might happen after Sam and Jay fell through the floor. Either Sam would lose her ability while Jay got it, or Jay would get it. Neither happened and we were back to status quo after a gag where Jay thought he saw Pete. Kind of like the BBC episode where Mike tries a magic potion to see the ghosts.
Tonight is an episode where Jay ends up befriending a cult leader. I wonder if this has something to do with wanting to see the ghosts? There was a hint within a throwaway line/joke possibly...when Pete says "Please die so we can be best friends!" Just as the week before, they had characters mention gumshoes and murder, and next ep. was about making a podcast to solve Alberta's murder.

...I was wrong about the cult offering Jay a chance to see the ghosts. There's still undertones of him wanting friends when Sam can talk to them whenever she wants.
I did however get Flower involvement given the subject. You get the feeling the ghosts fondly remember even harmful things until someone jogs their memories. Which led to the big revelation....Rob Montero is alive! Can we see him show up at Woodstone some day?
Thor remembers Marcel the monkey!!!
Hetty has a second remedy of choice... snake oil. And is her power x-ray vision actually? Or is she a really good voyeur?
Moon Cow and Larry. That is all.
And Trevor's feelings about Heaven's Gate.

So CBS has an upcoming episode that has the "Six Idiots" all over it.
Pete's death is going to be re-enacted for a TV show, and the actor who plays him is the one who plays Thomas the poet on the BBC Ghosts. And said show is called "Dumb Deaths," not unlike a recurring segment on Horrible Histories, another 6I project.

Hoping somehow, Mat's ("Thomas") character has a crush on Sam. Only half at best of the audience will get the joke, but it amuses me so that's the bottom line for me.

My brain may be broken because here is where it took me today…
So Sam met the female ghost who knew Sass before, right? So if she went to where that ghost is and then FaceTimed Jay and Sass back at the house, could the ghosts communicate with each other?
I like Sass. I’d like to see him get a happy storyline.

It worked on the BBC version. The house was being robbed, so Mike (their version of Jay) video called Alison (their Sam), and she could see the ghosts on her phone. We just had an episode where Thor's son lives in the neighboring house, and they have to get Thor to stand by a certain window so they can see each other. Then again, doing the phone trick would require Jay to have one phone, Sam to have the other, and one of them to be inside the Farnsbys house. As usual, Jay would have no idea what was going on as Sam told her how nice it was. And I don't think either would want to be inside the Farnsbys after learning {Spoiler} that they're swingers.

The Beeb have confirmed that Series 5 will start shooting next year. Well good. I like the original too. Way different besides the premise, though here and there you can see nods to it on the CBS version. {Spoiler} Won't be the same without Mary though. I just got to watch the most recent Christmas special off of HBO Max...quite nice. Always a treat to see Jennifer Saunders in anything. But the CBS Christmas special....oh boy... {Spoiler}We finally get the fan favorite kiss between Isaac and Nigel, and another posession...this time Sam becomes Thorfinn. But that ending...I did not see Hetty and Trevor getting together coming...I audibly marked out, which doesn't happen with me often.

Haven't seen the British version, but the CBS version is one of the few current shows I watch. I totally did not expect but marked for the same thing as you. Also, that Christmas two parter might have been the best episode period so far. Every character and actor had moments to shine, and all feel more fully fleshed out (pun totally intended) than ever.

Well, like I said if you have HBO Max, or access to it, the show is there, up to their third season (series). Not sure if/when the fourth will be up, given how things concerning HBO Max change from day to day. Yes I too loved the Christmas episode. That and Alberta's Podcast are my favorites this season.

So we have what can be sloppy writing, or a brilliant build up to something... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} To recap...Hetty got turned on by sitting on a washing machine, then videos of men chopping wood. Then she hooked up with Trevor, but is now keeping him at a short distance. And last week she revealed that she's ready to compete with Nigel for Isaac's attention.
Now, some fans noticed inconsistencies in Hetty's personality, compared to her development in season 1. For example, why would she tell Isaac to be himself, only to be jealous of his relationship?
Then it dawned on me...acting horny and bossy?
SOMEHOW ELIAS HAS RETURNED AND IS INFLUENCING HER.
The next episode is called Weekend From Hell. Considering where Hetty sent her husband, this may be a confirmation...
EDIT: second upcoming episode.
