Reba McEntire & Rex Linn Discuss Happy’s Place Season 2 Premiere

by

Ahead of the season 2 premiere of NBC’s Happy’s Place, stars Reba McEntire and Rex Linn spoke with Cher Thompson about a major event in the first episode that will drive the plot forward this season. The premiere saw Bobbie (McEntire) accepting her half-sister Isabella (Belissa Escobedo) into her life, and this acceptance immediately created new conflicts and drama.

Following the premiere of Happy’s Place season 2, where Emmett was rejected by Bobbie, it came out that Emmett had been hiding something ever since Isabella arrived. Unaware of this, Bobbie took a chance and kissed Emmett, hoping to ease the awkwardness. Actress McEntire shared that this kiss was a big moment for Bobbie, describing it as “really scary” and admitting she was “very nervous” about taking their relationship a step further.

Reba McEntire said that Bobbie and Emmett’s relationship is becoming more complex, but Bobbie is grateful for her sister Isabella’s support. She described a sweet moment between the two sisters and hinted that season two of Happy’s Place will bring more challenges. Although Bobbie is worried about the consequences of kissing Emmett (Rex Linn), she’s even more anxious about a secret she’s been keeping.

As a fan, I’m really intrigued by the idea that Emmett already knew about Isabella before she showed up! It seems like that knowledge will definitely impact his journey, especially as he gets closer to Bobbie. The showrunner, Linn, hinted that season one laid a lot of groundwork, and now they’re going to explore the consequences of all these established relationships and secrets. It’s going to be messy, but I’m so ready to see how it all unfolds and how Emmett deals with this – it’s going to ‘help navigate his ship,’ but also cause some serious drama, I can feel it!

Honestly, finding out Emmett knew about Isabella all along has actually made watching him play out so much more interesting! It’s pretty obvious this secret is going to be a big deal this season, especially with everything going on between him and Bobbie. I’m really curious to see if the show will drag out the tension surrounding it, or if they’ll reveal everything soon. I’m totally hooked to find out what happens next in Happy’s Place!

Season 2 of Happy’s Place will continue to develop the connections between the show’s characters, and fans can look forward to more reunions with the cast of Reba. Following Steve Howey’s appearance last season, JoAnna Garcia Swisher is joining the new season as a guest star, bringing more of the beloved Reba cast back together with Reba McEntire and Melissa Peterman.

The show Happy’s Place is consistently delivering engaging stories that highlight the talents of its actors. This keeps the show true to its sitcom roots while also demonstrating its potential as a surprisingly good comedy. The premiere episode sets up a promising season, largely thanks to the wonderful chemistry between McEntire and Linn.

Happy’s Place airs Fridays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
