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.
Did you know that Nick Jonas and Reba McEntire have known each other since 2001? They have because they both starred in Annie Get Your Gun on Broadway. I didn’t know that either.
However, yesterday, the two of them shared a video recreating a photo they took before he was in the Jonas Brothers, and she starred in her self-titled sitcom. That was a long time ago, and things have changed a lot for them…for the better.
How cute were/are the two of them then and now, as they had a full-circle moment on The Voice where he serves as a mentor to her team!
Reba McEntire, 70, and Rex Linn, 68, recently got engaged to her boyfriend of five years. Is it because they are going to have a shotgun wedding? That’s right. There is an image going around on the internet of the couple, who are starring in Happy’s Place, holding a sonogram printout of their baby.
So are they going to be parents? Nope! It was a fake photo, just like the one of her visiting Dolly Parton on her deathbed. Something Dolly addressed in her proof-of-life video yesterday.
Today, Reba addressed the photos and said, “That AI mess got us doing all kind of crazy things. You’re out there dying. I’m out there having a baby. Well, both of us know. You’re too young. And I’m too old for any of that kind of nonsense.”
Now that we know Miss Parton is not dying, maybe the soon-to-be Mrs. Linn can make her the Godmother of her baby. It has worked out well for Miley Cyrus.
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?
