During an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight, she revealed that her former “Reba” co-star Melissa Peterman and her boyfriend Rex Lynn will be joining her on the show.

“We have been working on trying to get another show since we were canceled on the Reba show,” McEntire shared. 

“We got to do Malibu Country for one season. We’ve got the same producers, same showrunner.

Same writers and now we’re back with Melissa Peterman and Rex Linn, my boyfriend, and wonderful, wonderful cast and crew.”

“We had such a good time doing the pilot… we can’t wait to go back,” she added.

Yesterday, Reba thrilled fans by posting a snapshot on her Instagram. In the photo, she poses with the pilot script for her upcoming sitcom, all while mentioning her latest single, “I Can’t.”
