'Ghosts' CBS' Sheila Carrasco Talks Season 2 Following Flower's Article, Relationship With Thor
Ghosts might have audiences laughing since its premiere last fall on CBS, but the single-camera comedy also has its fair share of poignant moments that leave fans reaching for the tissues every Thursday night. In the freshmen sitcom's seventh episode of its debut season, fans did just that with "Flower's Article," an episode that found Woodstone Mansion ghost Flower — played brilliantly by Sheila Carrasco — sharing a part of her past she was rather embarrassed about. In an exclusive with PopCulture.com host Tania Hussain to reflect on the first season of the sitcom now streaming on Paramount+ with Season 2 coming this fall, Carrasco admits that while her character "leads with her heart," she hopes the biggest takeaway for viewers is in the value of self-forgiveness.
"Forgiving yourself is really important and it's something a lot of people kind of have to learn in their lifetime," she told PopCulture. "Flower definitely had to learn it in her afterlife, and to be able to say, 'Hey, I made a mistake,' and there's still beauty in that mistake. Sometimes things can still work out, even though something went wrong — and obviously, I'm talking about the bank robbery leading to the coffee shop, being fair trade, and ending up helping people. But I think that's a theme that everyone can relate to."
