Plot

In the Human Realm, 13-year-old optimist Molly McGee arrives in her new hometown of Brighton, only to discover a grumpy ghost named Scratch haunting her new house. Scratch curses Molly in an attempt to scare her away; however, this backfires, forever binding him to her. After a rocky introduction to Molly's family, Scratch and Molly form a tentative friendship. Shortly thereafter, in the Ghost Realm, the level of misery in Brighton decreases slightly; the Ghost Council's Chairman notices this.

While initially antagonistic toward her, Scratch opens up to Molly with time, and their friendship strengthens.

Characters

Main

* Molly McGee (voiced by Ashly Burch), an optimistic girl of Irish and Thai ancestry who lives to make the world a better place. She keeps Scratch a secret from anyone who isn't her family, and later Libby.

* Scratch (voiced by Dana Snyder), a grumpy ghost cursed to be alongside Molly.{{cite web, url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-9N-Ycr8U8&ab_channel=DisneyChannel, title=Main Title {{! The Ghost and Molly McGee {{! Disney Channel Animation, date=May 1, 2021, website=YouTube While he isn't seen by any humans except the McGee family and Libby, his favorite member of the McGee family is Grandma Nin, because she sends him Thai snacks. His main hobby is making people miserable. His job is to scare people as assigned by the Ghost Council, but he seems to like spending his time being with Molly. Scratch glows a fluorescent cyan while visible, but is able to render himself invisible at will. He has a slimy appearance, though he is able to shift his appearance at will, as well as being able to distort his surroundings, typically to scare humans. He also has the ability to teleport between the Human Realm and the Ghost Realm at will. In "Out of House and Home/Home is Where the Haunt Is", after the McGees are forced to leave the house, they are no longer cursed together, but Scratch stills stays with the McGees after they move back in. In the Season 1 finale, he is punished for befriending a human, until Molly (as a wraith) rescues him, overpowers the Flow of Failed Phantoms and disintegrates the Chairman.

* Pete McGee (voiced by Jordan Klepper), Molly's Irish American father. Pete married Sharon with an unofficial wedding. He tends to act dim-witted at times, but means well.
* Sharon McGee (voiced by Sumalee Montano), Molly's Thai American mother. Sharon married Pete with an unofficial wedding. She has a tense relationship with her mother, Grandma Nin, but they later begin to get along better. Her income comes from doing gigs from an app named Gig-Pig.
** Montano also voices Grandma Nin, Molly and Darryl’s Thai grandmother, Sharon’s mother and Pete’s mother-in-law.
* Darryl McGee (voiced by Michaela Dietz), Molly's mischievous younger brother. Darryl has a pet tarantula named Heidi Hairylegs.

Production

The animated series was first conceived by co-creators Bill Motz and Bob Roth in 2007. The two of them had worked at Disney for years, with their first ever script being an episode of ''Darkwing Duck''. At the time, the series was known as ''The Curse of Piper McGee'' and initially focused on the titular girl's family moving to Transylvania where she was cursed by a vampiric ghoul simply named the Count. This version of the show was initially first pitched to Nickelodeon who passed on it. After fourteen years, the duo had completed work on ''Lego Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures'' when Disney signed them an overall deal. They re-pitched the series, with the new title of ''The Curse of Molly McGee'', where it got a positive response this time.

On July 23, 2019, Disney Channel greenlit the series, which was to be produced by Disney Television Animation, and executive-produced by Motz, Roth, and Steve Loter. On September 24, 2020, Ashly Burch and Dana Snyder joined the series in its lead roles. The same day, the series was retitled ''The Ghost and Molly McGee''.

The crew used several songs as inspiration from the series. Motz released a playlist featuring those songs throughout 2020 and part of 2021.

Molly, the daughter, immediately "befriends" him who in his anger accidentally curses her so that he is forever tied to her. He tries to scare the family out of the house so that the curse can be broken, but Molly convinces the family to stay. Taking the advice of her Grandma Nin, she makes a Spirit house, Sal Phra Phum for Scratch who graciously accepts it under the condition he be fed. In the Ghost Realm, the chairman notices that Brighton's misery gauge went down.

"First Day Frights": Molly is nervous about her first day at her new school which Scratch tries to take advantage of, but she throws caution to the wind. She ends up upsetting influencer Andrea Davenport after mispronouncing her name twice{{efn, As {{IPAc-en, ˈ, æ, n, d, r, i, ə {{respell, AN, dree, uh instead of {{IPAc-en, ˈ, ɑː, n, d, r, i, ə {{respell, AHN, dree, uh. and becomes a pariah alongside similar student Libby. When Molly refuses to back down, Scratch loses his temper; Andrea accidentally sees this and faints. Molly tries to rush Andrea to the nurse's office, but Scratch reveals Molly with the unconscious Andrea to everyone in the school. Shocked at the sight of Molly holding Andrea's body, everyone begins to insult her, but Scratch gains empathy and possesses Andrea's body and makes a declaration that people can pronounce her name however they want and that Molly and Libby deserve better treatment. Molly claims Scratch does care about her, much to his chagrin.

Molly ends up getting in trouble by falling into a compost machine and Scratch and Libby put aside their differences and work together to save her.

, ShortSummary = "Festival of Lights": The McGees and Scratch spend time with the Stein-Torres family on the last day of Hanukkah. A power outage occurs all throughout Brighton, but Ms. Stein-Torres has a backup generator, causing everyone to stay in her store for the time being. The McGees and Scratch take part in various Jewish traditions such as a game of dreidel, miracle boxes, storytelling, and (in Scratch's case) Hanukkah#Foods, eating greasy foods. The generator, expected to last only one hour, ends up Miracle of the cruse of oil#Significance of the eight days, lasting eight hours. Thankfully, the power comes back on and Molly tells Libby that she had a wonderful time spending Hanukkah with her.

"Saving Christmas": During the Snowflake Celebration, all the Christmas lights in town suddenly burn out, causing celebrations to be cancelled. Molly, and even Andrea, ask Mr. Davenport to help by contributing more decorations, but greedily turns them down. Scratch and the McGees try to pull a ''A Christmas Carol, Christmas Carol'' event on him, but he sees through it. With Molly's spirits dashed, Scratch makes a solo effort, and Mr. Davenport discovers that Andrea is sad as well because she wanted to be the Snow Queen for the celebration. With his change of heart, Mr. Davenport, Scratch, and the McGees repair the town decorations just in time for Christmas.

Scratch reveals that it is caused by the spirit of a failed ice skater named Sonia Davis (a parody of real life Olympic figure skater and movie star Sonja Henie). The McGees visit her as she tries to perfect her routine, but she needs a partner. Pete is revealed to be a former ice skater himself and becomes Sonia's partner, but she threatens to freeze Brighton forever if their routine fails. The two of them perform flawlessly, but fail at their very last move. Instead of being angry, Sonia realizes that she had a lot of fun and gives up on winning, finally able to pass on.

"Ready, Set, Snow!": Brighton gets a snow day, and Molly calls Libby to ask her and Scratch to play in the snow. Instead, they want to try hygge and keep warm. Angry, Molly tries to get Geoff, Sharon, Pete and Grandma Nin to go out with her, but they all end up joining Scratch and Libby. Darryl, who was outside, finds it unbearable and also joins the hygge. In a deranged state, Molly heads outside to enjoy the snow by herself. Despite being miserable and cold, she refuses to stop playing. Scratch finally convinces her to join the hygge, only for everyone to become too warm and head outside after all, to Molly's frustration.

, ShortSummary = "Game Night": To get out of cleaning the downstairs bathroom, Scratch exploits the McGees' weakness for a board game titled ''Mega City'', a game that Sharon is apparently lousy at and thus refuses to play. Scratch cheats and wins, forcing the McGees to clean the bathroom instead of him, but Sharon finally decides to confront him with a winner-take-all situation. It turns out that Sharon is actually a former ''Mega City'' champion (she lost to her family on purpose to spare their feelings) and completely annihilates Scratch with little effort. Scared of her ego, Pete takes the game and buries it and Scratch ends up cleaning the downstairs bathroom.

"The Don't-Gooder": Molly becomes infuriated by the attention Andrea has been receiving for doing charity work, despite her not actually doing much in comparison to Molly. She attempts to outdo her by selling nougat bars, but Andrea outsells her. With Scratch's help, they discover that Andrea bought all the bars herself and Molly decides to recruit Darryl to help expose her at a school event. She regrets this after realizing that Andrea was seeking the approval of her disinterested parents, and manages to cover for her when she gets exposed. Back at home, Molly embraces her parents while Scratch eats all of Andrea's nougat bars.

The McGees apologize for doubting him and the cake is revealed to have been eaten by Geoff, who thought it was for him.

His sadness results in the arrival of Sobgoblins, whom Scratch is afraid of as they feed off of depression. Molly tries to fight them off, but she too succumbs to them as does a powerless Sharon. However, upon seeing Darryl beginning to emulate the twins, Pete finally chastises his siblings who solemnly admit that they think of him as a success compared to them. The Sobgoblins are about to drain them, but the McGees all forgive and forget and hug to finally defeat them.

Reception

Critical reception

Kate Robertson of ''Stuff (website), Stuff'' described the main characters as a pair forming an "unlikely friendship" who help each other evolve, describing Molly as "an optimist [...] who just wants to make the world a better place" and Scratch as a "pessimist who hopes for the worst," and stated that the series is "funny, charming and an all-round joy to watch." Ashley Moulton of ''Common Sense Media'' rated the series 4 out of 5 stars and depicted it as a "funny ghost-girl buddy story...[with] mild ghoulish scares." She also stated that younger kids will be spooked when ghosts transform, but older kids will not, stated that ghosts are "a bit rough around the edges" and there is some cartoon violence. However, she stated that human characters act in a more positive manner, stated that the show's protagonist, Molly, is a "great role model", compared the series to ''Monsters, Inc.'' but called it a "charming, sweetly spooky animated series."
