‘Eternally Yours’ Release Date, Plot, Cast, Trailer and Everything Else You Need to Know About the Vampire Comedy From the ‘Ghosts’ Team

A new set of supernatural characters is arriving on CBS this fall, and the series comes from the ‘Ghosts’ duo Joe Port and Joe Wiseman. The network is betting that viewers who love a spooky sitcom will happily follow its creators into a brand new corner of the afterlife.

If you have been wondering about the ‘Eternally Yours’ release date, the time and where to watch, the answer is refreshingly simple. The series premieres on Thursday, October 8, which means the wait is basically over. Here is everything you need before the vampires move in.

‘Eternally Yours’ Release Date and Time

The show officially premieres on Thursday, October 8, in the 8.30 PM Eastern and 7.30 PM Central timeslot. That slot was previously held by ‘Ghosts’, which is not going anywhere. ‘Ghosts’ will now launch its sixth season as part of the CBS midseason lineup.

The new vampire comedy also has some friendly neighbors on the Thursday schedule. New episodes air Thursdays at 8.30 PM ET and PT, after ‘Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage’ and before the new season of ‘Elsbeth’. That makes the lineup feel like a proper night of comfort viewing.

Each half hour episode runs from 8.30 to 9.00 PM Eastern and Pacific on CBS. Good news for anyone worried about a long commitment, since this is a quick watch that fits easily into a busy week.

Where to Watch ‘Eternally Yours’

The simplest route is the traditional one. The show airs on CBS and also streams on Paramount+. If you have an antenna or a cable package that includes the network, you can tune in live.

Streaming viewers need to pay attention to their plan. The series streams live and on demand for Paramount+ Premium subscribers, while Essential subscribers can watch on demand the day after each episode airs. That small difference could matter if you hate spoilers and refuse to wait.

For fans who like to plan ahead, the show is not a one night wonder. The first season is listed with 20 episodes, with a finale set for spring. That gives the Thursday night crowd plenty of time to settle in with this coven.

‘Eternally Yours’ Preview and Plot

The central hook is a love story that has gone stale after centuries. The family comedy centers on Charles and Liz, a vampire couple whose once passionate romance has turned into a pulseless marriage after 500 years together. It is a fun twist on the usual vampire romance, because here the romance is the thing that needs rescuing.

The setup gets messier once a human enters the picture. The couple live in present day Seattle with their oddball coven, until their daughter’s earnest human boyfriend unexpectedly enters their lives. His arrival forces them to ask whether their love can survive forever or whether forever is a life sentence.

The premiere episode leans straight into that tension. CBS says the series premiere, directed by Trent O’Donnell, sees Max find his world turned upside down after he discovers the truth about Emma’s mysterious family. Anyone who has ever met a partner’s strange relatives will feel for him.

The marketing also promises a particular flavor of humor. The official trailer describes Charles and Liz as a charming married couple whose relationship has lasted centuries because divorce is not exactly an option for vampires. If you enjoy a joke built on supernatural logic, this should be right up your alley.

Cast and Creators Behind ‘Eternally Yours’

The ensemble is led by two familiar faces. Ed Weeks plays Charles and Allegra Edwards plays Liz, with Helen J. Shen as Emma and Jaren Lewison as Max. Those four sit at the heart of the central family triangle.

The coven is just as important to the comedy. Parker Young plays Jesse, Rose Abdoo plays Phyllis, Shylo Molina plays Henry and Tristan Michael Brown plays Mort. A crowded house of immortals should give the writers plenty of room for running gags.

Behind the camera, the pedigree is the main selling point. Creators Joe Port and Joe Wiseman executive produce alongside Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum and Jason Wang, and the pilot was directed by Trent O’Donnell. That is a lot of sitcom experience pointed at a very fanged premise.

Some viewers may assume this is a spinoff, so it is worth clearing up. Although it shares a creative team with ‘Ghosts’, it is a separate series with a different cast and an unconnected story world. You can jump in without homework, and ‘Ghosts’ fans can simply enjoy the familiar comic instincts.

So will Charles and Liz rekindle their spark in Seattle, or will their daughter’s very human boyfriend prove that a 500 year marriage can still be shaken by one awkward dinner, and does that make this vampire coven a worthy successor to the ‘Ghosts’ timeslot in your book, so tell us in the comments which immortal in the coven you think will steal the show first?
