"Ghosts" fans are in for a ton of surprises in the upcoming sixth season of the popular CBS comedy series.

Showrunners Joe Port and Joe Wiseman were very generous to the crowd inside Ballroom 20 at Comic-Con on Friday, teasing what to expect after leaving Pete’s (Richie Moriarty) fate up in the air at the end of Season 5.



That will get addressed quite immediately upon the show’s return, as the pair already told Deadline, but they went a step further at SDCC to prepare audiences for the fact that the Pete crisis won’t necessarily be solved right away.

Overall, they remained pretty mum on Pete details, though.





Season 6 will coincide with the 100th episode of "Ghosts". That’s historically been a big milestone in television, and it’s even rarer these days as episode orders have shrunk with the rise of streaming. Just like many showrunners before them, Port and Wiseman are planning to make an event out of it.

With that episode, it looks like "Ghosts" is going a little meta. As it turns out, the in-universe reality show that the Woodstone ghosts have taken a liking to, It’s Getting Hot in Here, will also be celebrating its 100th episode soon, the showrunners teased. Go figure!




As if that wasn’t already plenty to look forward to, Wiseman also revealed that the ghost boundary will play a pretty big part in Season 6.

Well, to a certain extent it always does, since it keeps Woodstone’s ghosts (except for Pete) on the property at all times, but in the spring viewers can expect that “later on in the season, something temporarily may happen to the ghost boundary,” he told the crowd.
