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!

Reba McEntire had some really happy news to share with her Happy’s Place co-stars and crew today. The Friday night bar sitcom will be back for a second season.
This is her third sitcom with Kevin Abbott, second with her Reba BFF Melissa Peterman, and first with her boyfriend Rex Linn (when are they going to get married).
Happy’s Place tells the story of Bobbie (Reba), who recently lost her father and gains a twenty-something sister, Bella (Belissa Escobedo). Reba and Bella inherit his bar, and they have to make their newfound relationship work while dealing with everything else that comes with running it. That includes Gabby (Peterman) the bubbly bartender, Emmett (Linn) the curmudgeon cook, Steve (Pablo Castelblanco) the uptight money man, and Tokoda (Tokala Black Elk) the calm and wise handy man.
They are not only co-workers, but they are also family. It is that chemistry that made this show a hit , which is why NBC picked it up for another season.
Fox First Run will no longer be running three of their shows in the Fall because they erased Pictionary, Dish Nation, and Person, Place or Thing.
Dish Nation debuted in 2012, while Pictionary with Jerry O’Connell debuted ten years later, followed by Person, Place or Thing with Melissa Peterman the following year.
TVNewsCheck says they might not be the only daytime three shows getting the axe. The Jennifer Hudson Show, Extra and True Crime News, and Trifecta’s Crime Expose with Nancy O’Dell might also be on the chopping block.
