Reba McEntire’s new NBC sitcom, Happy’s Place, sets a release date. 

Though she is best known as a legendary country singer, dubbed the “Queen of Country Music,” 

McEntire has also starred in several television series, starting with the sitcom Reba in 2001, which aired for six seasons on The WB and The CW before it was canceled in 2007. 

McEntire will once more be leading a sitcom, this time for NBC, with Happy’s Place set to premiere in late 2024.

Now, McEntire’s upcoming NBC sitcom has set a release date. Per TVLine, the Happy’s Place series premiere has been set for Friday, October 18 at 8 pm on NBC. 

It will be followed by the Lopez vs. Lopez season 3 premiere at 8:30 pm.

Happy’s Place will be the latest sitcom led by McEntire after Reba and Malibu Country, both of which were canceled. 

It remains to be seen if Happy’s Place suffers the same fate after its first season. 

Since Malibu Country was canceled in 2013, McEntire has mostly stuck to guest spots, such as on Young Sheldon, in addition to being featured as a judge on America’s Got Talent and The Voice. She secured a lead role in Big Sky season 3, though it was canceled shortly after. In turn, Happy’s Place could help make up for McEntire’s many canceled shows.

Happy’s Place stars McEntire as Bobbie, a woman who inherits her father’s restaurant and is unpleasantly surprised to learn that she must run it with a new business partner – a half-sister that she never knew existed. McEntire’s co-lead in the sitcom, who plays her character’s half-sister, is Belissa Escobedo, known for Hocus Pocus 2 and Blue Beetle. Other cast members include Melissa Peterman, Pablo Castelblanco, Tokala Black Elk, and Rex Linn, the last of whom is McEntire’s real-life boyfriend.

With Peterman among the cast, Happy’s Place will mark a reunion between the two stars. She previously starred in Reba as Barbra Jean, the dental hygienist who had an affair with Reba’s onscreen husband, Brock, of 20 years, leading to their divorce. McEntire and Peterman also appeared together in Young Sheldon, Working Class, The Hammer, and Baby Daddy. With McEntire returning to the realm of sitcoms in Happy’s Place alongside Peterman, it is sure to recapture some of that past magic.
