It is Friday, and after a long week, we need to laugh. Thank Gosh for NBC because that is what we are going to do with Happy’s Place and Stumble.
Happy’s Place starts off the night at 8p, and Isabella (Belissa Escobedo) has a boyfriend. However, she doesn’t want to introduce him to her big sister, Bobbie (Reba McEntire), and she has a good reason for not doing so. Isabella is afraid that Bobbie won’t approve, and she is right. Why doesn’t Bobbie approve? You will have to tune in to find out.
That, and to see what happens when Gabby (Melissa Peterman) and Steve (Pablo Castelblanco) find a phone and start reading the hate texts it receives. Tokoda (Tokala Black Elk) tries to take the phone away from them, but they take it back. And wait until they find out who it belongs to…
And did I mention that Taxi’s Christopher Lloyd and Carol Kane guest star on the episode?
Then at 8:30p, on Stumble, we find out who recorded the video that got Courtney (Jenn Lyon) fired as head coach at Sammy Davis Sr. Junior College. Who do you think the backstabber is?
Is it someone on her new cheer team at Headltston Junior College or someone from her old school? And what happens when Courtney confronts that person?
Plus, the cheer squad goes against another team. How will they size up against them?
And finally, there will be a flash mob proposal! Will the proposed to person say yes?
All of that happens and so much more in another episode that gives us something to cheer about. So tune in because I need more of this sitcom. It seriously makes me laugh out loud every week!
Tonight, starting at 8p on NBC, Happy’s Place and Stumble are about babies, sort of.
Happy’s Place starts things off with Gabby (Melissa Peterman) trying to pick a sperm donor to be the father of her future child from a book. It is not an easy decision, so everyone at Happy’s is going to help her out.
But what happens when she can’t pick a man from the book? She looks at her co-workers. Will she choose Steve (Pablo Castelblanco), Emmett (Rex Linn), or Takoda (Tokala Black Elk)? And how will Bobbie (Reba McEntire) feel about her considering her man as one of the men?
It is an episode only this show can deliver!
NBC
Then at 8:30p, all of the cheerleaders on Stumble are synced up with their periods. The only woman who doesn’t have her period is Coach Courtney (Jenn Lyon). Therefore, she thinks she might be pregnant. Is she?
We also learn a lot about Dimarcus (Jarrett Austin Brown) on tonight’s episode. He has four older sisters, so he is taking care of his female cheerleaders. He might come off as a tough guy, but when it comes to women’s time of the month. He is a softee.
He is there for them, but will they be there for him when he needs them?
Tonight’s episode shows us that Stumble has earned its spot on television and should be around for a long time. It is the perfect amount of smart laughs and heart! Give it a shot, and you will be cheering it for it as much as I do!
It has been a long week, and boy, do we need to laugh. NBC is helping us do just that with Happy’s Place and Stumble starting at 8p tonight.
The episode takes place the day after Bobbie (Reba McEntire) and Emmett (Rex Linn) finally kissed (which took place at the end of the season premiere last week). And now we are going to see how they are reacting to it, as everyone else at the bar finds out about it.
Bobbie can’t wait to tell Gabby (Melissa Peterman), and they are all excited about it, until they see how Emmett tells Steve (Pablo Castelblanco) about the big moment.
What they don’t know is that Steve just found out from Emmett that he had known about Bobbie’s secret sister, Bella (Belissa Escobedo), for a long time. And you know Steve does not do well with knowing things he should not know.
So will Bobbett’s kiss be a one-time thing? You are going to have to tune in to find.
And then stay around to watch Stumble, a mockumentary sitcom about the competitive world of Junior College Cheer teams.
Last week, we got to meet Courteney Potter (Jenn Lyon), Junior College’s #1 Cheer coach. Well, technically, she is tied for that title, and now she is trying to have it all to herself with her brand new team at Headltston State Junior College. She had to start a new team because she was fired from Sammy Davis, Senior Junior College.
The newly assembled team needs a lot of help, especially after her best cheerleader, Krystal (Anissa Borrego), was injured after Dimarcus (Jarrett Austin Brown) accidentally threw her, and her foot broke.
Tonight, Courtney has to get the rest of her team ready for Media Day, and they are not as good as her old team, not even close.
Will clepto Peaches (Taylor Dunbar), over-the-hill Stevie (Ryan Pinkston), angry Dimarcus, can’t stay awake Madonna (Arianna Davis), and the lovable orphan Sally (Georgie Murphy) be ready for their second big moment?
She is going to try, but she is going to need help. Where will she get it from? You will have to watch the funniest and smartest new comedy of the season. Jeff Astrof has done it again.
Stay with Stumble because next week’s episode proves why this show needs to be picked up for more episodes.
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.
