Big news for fans of CBS's hit comedy Ghosts: the show is officially leveling up one of its fan-favorite guest stars. Ben Feldman, best known for his role on Superstore, has been promoted to series regular for Season 6. That means his character, Kyle, will be sticking around Woodstone B&B for the long haul.
Feldman first appeared as Kyle in Season 5, quickly winning over viewers with his quirky charm and unexpected chemistry with the ghostly ensemble. Now, the show is making it official—Kyle is no longer just a recurring face; he's part of the core family. This move signals that the writers have big plans for his storyline in the upcoming season.
For those who need a refresher, Kyle is a living human who became entangled in the supernatural happenings at Woodstone. His dynamic with both the living residents and the ghosts has provided some of the show's most hilarious and heartfelt moments. With Feldman now a series regular, we can expect even more of that magic.
What This Means for Season 6
The promotion comes as Ghosts continues to be a ratings powerhouse for CBS. The show's blend of workplace comedy and supernatural antics has struck a chord with audiences, and adding a proven comedic talent like Feldman only strengthens the ensemble. Showrunners have hinted that Kyle's backstory will be explored more deeply, potentially tying into the larger mythology of the haunted B&B.
This isn't the first time Ghosts has expanded its cast mid-run. The series has a knack for introducing memorable characters and integrating them seamlessly. Feldman's promotion follows a similar trajectory to other fan favorites who started as guests and became integral to the show's identity.

Why This Matters for Fans
For longtime viewers, Feldman's promotion is a reward for their loyalty. It means more screen time for a character who has already proven he can hold his own against the likes of Sam (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar). It also opens the door for new storylines—maybe Kyle will finally learn the truth about the ghosts, or perhaps he'll become an unlikely ally in their antics.
The show's ability to balance its large cast is one of its strengths. With Feldman now a regular, the writers will have to juggle even more personalities, but if past seasons are any indication, they're more than up to the task. Expect Season 6 to dive into Kyle's relationships with both the living and the dead, creating fresh comedic and emotional beats.
As we wait for the new season to premiere, fans can rewatch Feldman's earlier episodes to see how his character has evolved. The promotion is a testament to his performance and the show's commitment to keeping things fresh. Ghosts Season 6 is shaping up to be its most exciting yet.
