BBC Studios Producer Reveals Why ‘Ghosts’ Is “Indebted” To ‘Friends’ – Seriencamp
'Ghosts' owes 'Friends' a debt for its flat-share roots, said a BBC Studios producer at Seriencamp today.
The series, originally from Monumental Television for the BBC in the UK, follows a young couple inherit a huge castle, only to find one of them can communicate with the various apparitions from history who already live there. They noted they would follow the scripts of Ghosts ‘ first season before branching off into their own direction, just like Greg Daniels did at NBC with Ricky Gervais’ seminal British comedy The Office. Harrison complemented the German version of Ghosts, which is for public broadcaster WDR and streaming service ARD Mediathek, for following the initial recipe and then making new scripting choices.
