The Queen of Country returns to “Happy’s Place” and we had the honor of speaking to her and the rest of the cast! Reba McEntire steps back into the role of “Bobbie” for season 2 and the found family of the bar is poised to be closer than ever, but will secrets tear them apart?
We spoke to stars McEntire, Belissa Escobedo, Melissa Peterman, Pablo Castelblanco, Tokala Black Elk, and Rex Linn. They showed us set easter eggs, gave us the dirt on who is the best secret keeper, and who is the most competitive.
More about “Happy’s Place“:
Bobbie (McEntire) inherits her father’s tavern and is surprised to discover that she has a new business partner, Isabella (Escobedo), a twentysomething half-sister that she never knew she had.
In Season 2, Happy’s Place reopens its doors, and a long-buried secret comes to light that will test loyalties and shake things up inside the tavern. Through it all, Bobbie must remind everyone that family isn’t what you’re born into, but it’s the people that stand beside you, even in the workplace.
The series stars Reba McEntire, Belissa Escobedo, Melissa Peterman, Pablo Castelblanco, Tokala Black Elk and Rex Linn.

“Happy’s Place” airs Fridays on NBC at 8pm ET/PT, next day on Peacock.
