Ghosts Creators Bring Vampire Comedy to CBS — Here’s When to Expect It
CBS sinks its teeth into Eternally Yours, ordering the single-camera vampire comedy from the Ghosts creators for the 2026-27 season—proving that after 500 years, love still bites.
CBS is getting ready to put a new spin on vampire comedy—this time from the folks who already brought supernatural humor to the network with Ghosts. If you thought 500 years of marriage would make a couple run out of things to argue about, apparently you'd be wrong.
The Next Chapter for CBS’s Comedy Lineup: Eternally Yours
So here’s the rundown: CBS just handed a series order to Eternally Yours, a single-camera vampire comedy from the minds behind Ghosts—specifically, Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, who are sticking around as showrunners and executive producers. The show is set to land on the network’s 2026-27 schedule. If you’re keeping track, this isn’t just a random pickup—CBS had the project in the works for two years before finally moving forward.
What’s It About? Vampire Marriage Ennui, Basically
This one centers on Charles and Liz, a vampire couple living in modern-day Seattle... after 500 years of marriage. (Yes, half a millennium of shared domestic life—insert your own immortal-in-law joke here.) Their “normal” undead routine gets disrupted when their daughter brings home a human boyfriend. So the show’s angle isn’t just the typical will-they-won’t-they; it’s more like, can love actually last forever, or does immortality just mean the same arguments on loop?
Meet the Cast
- Ed Weeks stars as Charles
- Allegra Edwards plays Liz
- Also featured: Helen J. Shen, Jaren Lewison, Parker Young
- Rounding out the regulars: Shylo Molina, Rose Abdoo, and Tristan Michael Brown
Behind the scenes, Trent O'Donnell, who also directed the Ghosts pilot, returned to direct and produce the Eternally Yours pilot. The producing team includes Kim Tannenbaum, Eric Tannenbaum, and Jason Wang, in addition to our main showrunners.
Why CBS Thinks This Is a Safe Bet
The network obviously sees some synergy here. Both Eternally Yours and Ghosts have supernatural settings (the living dead are apparently the new multi-cam), and to streamline everything, they’re actually filming in the same spot up in Montreal, with the same showrunners. This isn’t just efficient—CBS is clearly hoping to clone some Ghosts magic here.
CBS even put together a development room for the project last August and officially ordered the pilot in July. Rumor has it the pilot got a good reaction inside the network during recent screenings, which all but sealed the deal for a series order.
Where Does This Fit in the CBS Universe?
For next season, Eternally Yours will join returning comedies Ghosts and Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage on the primetime slate. Worth noting: That’s one less comedy than this season—which either means CBS is doubling down on quality (or just being a little more cautious after a rough couple of years for sitcoms).
'Even after 500 years, some relationships still face challenges.'
So, if you enjoy immortal bickering and the occasional undead marital crisis—and let’s face it, who doesn’t—keep an eye out for Eternally Yours hitting CBS for the 2026-27 season. Like Ghosts, it could end up being a breakout (or at least sink its teeth into a decent chunk of the audience).
