“You better listen and be nice,” Reba declares.
Reba McEntire and her boyfriend Rex Linn are taking part in the viral “Better Be Nice” trend on social media to announce exciting news: the second season of their hit sitcom, Happy’s Place.
In the clip, Reba introduces rex and allows him to deliver the news.
“This is my boyfriend,” she says. “He’s gonna tell you about the second season of Happy’s Place. You better listen and be nice.”
Rex steps into focus and says, “Hello everybody. 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.”
Then, he teases the plot of the second season, hinting that their characters, Bobbie and Emmett, might find a romantic connection in the new season.
“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,” he jokes. “I mean, if she was with Emmett. I mean, that’s how I look at it.”
All jokes aside, Rex told fans to “stay tuned” for the upcoming season.
“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,” he said.
Earlier this week, NBC confirmed the return of Happy’s Place, starring Reba and Rex alongside Belissa Escobedo, Melissa Peterman, Pablo Castelblanco, and Tokala Black Elk. The fan-favorite show will return on November 7.
The show follows Bobbie (Reba), who inherits her father’s tavern, Happy’s Place, and is shocked to learn she has a new business partner, Isabella (Escobedo), her twentysomething half-sister she never knew existed.
Reba serves as executive producer alongside writer Kevin Abbott, Michael Hanel, Mindy Schultheis, Matt Berry and Pamela Fryman.
She also delivers the theme song for Happy’s Place, which she co-wrote with with Doug Sisemore and her longtime friend Carole King.
“I hope my fans will love this song as much as they did the theme song for the ‘Reba’ show,” she shared upon the unveiling of the song.
Fans will have the opportunity to catch Reba on TV earlier in the season with the return of The Voice on September 22.
The country music icon returns to the all-star coaching panel with Michael Bublé, Niall Horan and Snoop Dogg.
