Reba McEntire and Rex Linn Share News About ‘Happy’s Place With ‘Better Be Nice’ Trend
Reba McEntire and Rex Linn are using the viral “Better Be Nice” trend to share good news about their TV show, Happy’s Place, which airs on NBC. McEntire plays part owner of Happy’s Place, a bar in Knoxville, Tenn., while Linn plays the bar’s cook.
“This is my boyfriend,” she says, in a video shared on social media. “He’s gonna tell you about the second season of Happy’s Place. You better listen and be nice.”
“Hello everybody,” Linn says in the video. “This is Rex Linn. I play Emmett on Happy’s Place. Coming this fall, our second season. We’re so happy about it. Our reviews are good. Ratings are great. People are watching. It’s going to be so much fun. And there’s rumors that maybe Emmett and Bobbie get together.
“I mean, we don’t know that for a fact, but it would be great for Bobbie, I mean, if she was with Emmett,” he continues, as McEntire makes faces behind him. “I mean, that’s how I look at it. You gotta stay tuned. Late this fall, we’re coming back. Season Two, baby, of Happy’s Place, and do not miss it, or I’ll come after you with my spatula.”

It was McEntire who had the idea for Linn to join her on Happy’s Place, along with her former Reba co-star, Melissa Peterman.
“When we were working on this, they said, ‘We’re going to have a short-order cook,’ and I said, ‘That’s gotta be Rex,'” McEntire recalls on the Today Show. “We have a blast. I love it. He brings me into work. He drives us to work and then takes us home, and he’s my rehearsal coach, so I rehearse a lot.”
McEntire and Linn both live and work together, an arrangement that works surprisingly well, for both of them.
“Rex is a stickler on rehearsals,” the 70-year-old divulges on Late Night with Seth Meyers. “So we’ll wake up – every morning we have ‘Coffee Camp.’ And so, I’ll go get the coffee, and he’s got a script. I’m like, ‘Can’t we have coffee first?'”
