Happy’s Place is back on NBC tonight at 8p, and it is just as funny as it was last season. Actually, it might even be funnier.
The season premiere starts off with Bobbie (Reba McEntire) and Emmett (Rex Linn) still fighting their feelings for each other. However, it is getting closer to art imitating life for the real-life betrothed couple.
And this season, they are getting help from Bobby’s sister, Isabella (Belissa Escobedo), and best friend, Gabby (Melissa Peterman), and the other bar’s employees, Takoda (Tokala Black Elk) and Steve (Pablo Castelblanco), when it comes to them being something more than friends.
Will they get those two together, or keep further apart? You will have to tune in to find out.
Jean-Luc Bilodeau had a Baby Daddy reunion this weekend. That is because Derek Theler, Melissa Peterman, and Tahj Mowry attended his wedding to Elise LeBlanc in Palm Springs. The couple started dating in 2021 and got engaged in June 2024.
To make the reunion even more official, Peterman, who played his mom on the sitcom, officiated the nuptials.
This is not the first time she has done that for one of her TV sons. She also officiated Theler’s marriage to Lisa Summerscales in 2022.
Bilodeau is not the only cast member who got married this year. Chelsea Kane tied the knot in July.
And then there was Tahj, the only one who is still single.
Happy’s Place is returning to NBC in just over a month, and today, we are learning more about what we can expect from Season 2.
Happy’s Place reopens its doors, and a long-buried secret comes to light that will test loyalties and shake things up inside the tavern. Through it all, Bobbie (Reba McEntire) must remind everyone that family isn’t what you’re born into, but it’s the people who stand beside you, even in the workplace.
What do you think that long-buried secret is? I mean, how can it top Bobby finding out that she has a half-sister, Isabella (Belissa Escobedo), whom she never knew about? Something she didn’t find out until after her father died. And to make matters worse, he left his bar to both of them. So honestly, what can top that?
We will find out when Reba and the gang open Happy’s Place again on November 7th.
However, what I really want to know is if Emmett (Rex Linn) and Bobbie are going to hook up? I want to see their real-life love affair come to fruition on the small screen. Who else is with me?
Reba McEntire was reunited with her Reba show creator, Kevin Abbott, and co-star Melissa Peterman at the start of her NBC sitcom, Happy’s Place.
Since the premiere, we saw her Reba son-in-law, Steve Howey, and ex-husband, Christopher Rich, appear on her new show.
That was season 1. Today, we found out that her Reba daughter, JoAnna Garcia, will guest star on an upcoming episode. She will play Kenzie, a local Knoxville influencer who has been hired to represent Happy’s Place for their upcoming social media marketing campaign and all of it is much to Bobbie’s (McEntire) chagrin.
Over the weekend, the Reba co-stars, including Reba’s fiancé, Rex Linn, who also stars on Happy’s Place, got together at a different restaurant, and now we know why. To celebrate Swisher’s appearance on the sitcom.
At this rate, they should just give us a Reba sequel. Because, like the singer, that show is a survivor!
