Ghosts Used ‘Not Like Us’ To Play Up Hamilton And Isaac’s Feud, And The Fans Can’t Get Over How Dramatic It Is

by

In 2025, as Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl performance and Grammy victories fueled speculation about his ongoing rivalry with Drake, the song “Not Like Us” found a new stage on CBS’s Ghosts. This time, though, the feud isn’t real; it’s the comedic squabble between Isaac Higgintoot and Alexander Hamilton that’s stealing the spotlight. Fans can’t get enough of how hilariously dramatic this fictional rivalry has become!

CBS’s TikTok account shared a compilation of scenes where the character Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones) criticizes Alexander Hamilton, accompanied by the popular hook from Lamar’s song. In one scene, the Civil War ghost is seen rejoicing as an Alexa provides information about Hamilton’s demise, and he also talks negatively and ridicules Hamilton whenever his name comes up. Check out the complete video showcasing “Isaac’s 250-year-old feud with Alexander Hamilton” below:

It’s clear that the Higgintoot-Hamilton development in the “Not Like Us” phenomenon would undoubtedly please Isaac, given that this week’s episode of Ghosts will unveil Nat Faxon’s Hamilton character and his bond with Isaac.

Tonight’s episode, titled “Alexander Hamilton and the Ruffle Kerfuffle” on CBS, will reveal the origins of Higgintoot’s long-standing dispute, while we see Jay becoming increasingly preoccupied with the accomplishments of his contemporary.

In the video, it’s clear that all the other spirits have moved past their feud, yet Isaac continues to harbor resentment towards Hamilton. I’m eager to discover how the other ghosts respond once they understand the reasons behind Isaac’s long-standing hatred of Hamilton.

As Higgintoot faces this solo dispute on-screen, numerous viewers find themselves entertained by it. Interestingly, they’ve even suggested that Lin-Manuel Miranda make an appearance due to the “Not Like Us” soundtrack stirring such a thought. They chuckle at the over-the-top dramatic portrayal of the Revolutionary War hero.

  • I need lin manuel miranda to make a cameo on the show as hamilton somehow that would be HILARIOUS – Jersfer
  • ok but I need lin manual to appear at least once 😭 -•yeira•𓍊𓋼
  • 250 years of a ONE sided beef mind you 😂 -Witz
  • I can’t wait to find out the story between the beef between Hamilton and Isaac – Natala Marsocci
  • “He haunts me and I’m a damn ghost” will forever be one of my favorite lines from the show -TotallyNotLin
  • “Isn’t that the guy on the ten dollar bill?” “The whaat?!” 😂😂😂 -Range75

At this moment, it remains uncertain whether Hamilton, the ghost from today, will appear in tonight’s episode, or if he’ll show up in a flashback. Regardless, we can’t wait to find out! Fans, including myself, are eagerly anticipating the portrayal of the real interaction between these two historical figures and whether Isaac has overreacted or not.

Without a doubt, the intensity with which Isaac expresses his disdain for Hamilton stands out as one of the most captivating subplots in the TV show “Ghosts.” This TikTok video perfectly encapsulates that aspect.

Tonight, it’s thrilling to discover which side of this ongoing rivalry will unfold, and I’m looking forward to more of their shenanigans in the future. With Ghosts being renewed for two additional seasons and praised as one of the top Hollywood adaptations of British shows, there seems to be ample room to explore this lighthearted conflict further.

To witness the ongoing feud between Isaac, who may consider it as significant as the rivalry between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, unfold on screen, tune in to Ghosts every Thursday at 8:30 p.m. ET on CBS. If you miss the live broadcast, don’t worry! You can stream the episodes the next day with a Paramount+ subscription.
