Reba McEntire and the rest of the cast of HAPPY’S PLACE Season 2 love jumping back into work after the show’s renewal in February.
“HAPPY’S PLACE Season 2, we’re in production now…and we’re just so glad to be back and get to work with each other; and it’s not work. It’s play,” McEntire said in a short behind the scenes video she posted on Instagram, adding in the caption, “Y’all ready for another round?”

Since receiving the greenlight to create the show, McEntire has poured her heart and soul into the project. Serving as her first mainstay role on a show since REBA ended in 2007, McEntire works to bring the same level of success to HAPPY’S PLACE as her self-titled show. She also welcomed back many of the actors who starred on REBA so audiences can enjoy seeing them together again, albeit in different roles.
“It’s a lot of fun,” HAPPY’S PLACE creator, Kevin Abbott, told TV Line. “We absolutely want to bring some of the old cast members on — and in very different roles than what they played on REBA. Steve [Howie] is our first one up, and we’re trying to figure out how to bring JoAnna [Garcia-Swisher] in. We only want to have the old cast in if we can really utilize them in a fun, impactful way.”
McEntire has also created the show to capture the state of TV when REBA was on air, making her show family-friendly and accessible for viewers of all ages so parents and kids can enjoy it together. A portion of Movieguide®’s review reads:
HAPPY’S PLACE emphasizes the value of family and includes strong references to Christianity, including Bobbie giving up her worries to God and a prayer at the end of the episode. While the show’s premise relies on an extramarital affair and drinking, both are chastised throughout the show. Though one joke relies on a politically correct comment about a character having fewer opportunities because she isn’t white, overall, the jokes are genuinely funny and make the series an entertaining watch. Furthermore, there is no nudity, violence, or foul language. Thus, Movieguide® finds the show worthwhile, though we advise caution for younger children.
Though HAPPY’S PLACE is yet to have a set release date for Season 2, fans can expect to see new episodes in NBC’s fall lineup on Fridays, though its exact time slot is still unknown.
