While the rest of the Ghosts cast wear elaborate period costumes like Danielle Pinnock in her Prohibition Era Jazz attire, Grodman had to get over acting underdressed.
However, while he worked on acting comfortably without pants, everyone else had to deal with him acting without them.
“The trick I discovered was if I take my pants off right before we shoot, it’s no good. I need like a running start,” Grodman said. “So then my pants are off earlier, which makes me comfortable. Everyone else is uncomfortable, but it makes for a better performance.”
While CBS revealed some of the ghosts had embarrassing deaths, like Flower (Sheila Carrasco) dying from a bear attack while high, the most recent spirits, arrow-in-the-neck Pete (Richie Moriarty) and Trevor, have the most unfortunate afterlife forms.

Ghosts actor Asher Grodman continued talking about another aspect of his character in the interview. Since Trevor died recently, he makes plenty of 90s references.
Outside of Rose McIver and Utkarsh Ambudkar’s Sam and Jay, those tend to be the most up-to-date references in the Ghosts episodes.
“And then in terms of the references, it’s fun because I grew up in the 90s. So I get to go back and look at all those shows that I watched and stories I remember,” the Ghosts actor said, “so every episode is like a scavenger hunt of memories. It’s fun.”
While the Asher Grodman Ghosts character might have some costume drawbacks, he still enjoys playing Trevor. And he cannot wait to continue playing him in Ghosts Season 2.
