In fantasy sitcom Nearly Departed Grant and Clare Pritchard are killed in a car crash, the pair return as ghosts to their family home and are put out when a new family, the Dooleys, move in. Grandpa Jack is the only one able to see the ghosts. This distinctly Topper-esque show did not fare at all well and was pulled after four of its six episodes.
