When she inherits her late father's tavern Happy's Place, Bobbie is shocked to learn that she has a new co-owner -- Isabella, the half-sister she never knew existed. Isabella is young, inexperienced and has some unusual new ideas about how to run the family business. But they're not alone -- there's also Gabby, the bartender with a love of drama; Emmett, the cook and man of few words; Takoda, the nicest waiter in Tennessee; and Steve, their brilliant yet eccentric accountant. Alongside their close-knit staff, Bobbie and Isabella will definitely figure out this new chapter together. After all, whether they're friends, co-workers or unexpected siblings... at Happy's Place, everyone is family.

Daniel Fienberg Hollywood Reporter Happy’s Place does not feel like a well-established Nashville institution. It feels like a generic bar set on a studio lot and its staff feel like descriptions on a casting notice, plus Reba McEntire. Oct 23, 2024 Full Review Kelly Lawler USA Today It's just another low-rent sitcom with stale jokes, bland characters and a limp plot. Rated: 2/4 Oct 21, 2024 Full Review Aramide Tinubu Variety A reminder that more traditional comedy series can still have a place on television, especially when they can add some 21st-century flair to long-established themes and tropes. Oct 19, 2024 Full Review Joly Herman Common Sense Media Striking an admirable balance between Southern comfort and Southern hospitality, Reba McEntire's family comedy expertly bridges ethnic and generational gaps Oct 29, 2024 Full Review Joel Keller Decider Happy’s Place is a throwback sitcom that relies on character humor instead of broad gags, and that’s always something that we will root for. Oct 20, 2024 Full Review Dave Nemetz TV Line By cramming a Gen Z worldview into a pre-Y2K sitcom format, Happy’s Place is trying to straddle two eras… and is all the more shaky because of it. Rated: C+ Oct 18, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Stacy H Annoying show. Annoying trope characters. Tired of shows using so much cheating and infedelity. It's not funny. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/12/24 Full Review the Extra life W Reba is back at again this show has a lot of heart and funny moments Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/09/24 Full Review Market A The LAUGH TRACK IS VERY ANNOYING. It is overkill to play it when character lines are clearly not funny. It’s like they play it on every other character line. You can’t concentrate on the story line because of the stupid laugh track. STOP THE EXCESSIVE LAUGH TRACK AND SEE IF THE SHOW WILL GET BETTER! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/09/24 Full Review Semira C Take out Isabella and you will have a cast who can pull off this sitcom. Centring the plot around her and Reba who have zero chemistry because of Belissa's poor acting is tanking this show. Steve, Emmett and Takoda are so much more interesting. Plus, we can never go wrong with Melissa opposite Reba. The Isabella character is the fly in the pudding, get her out. Stop shoving Gen Z ideals down our throats - it's not working and leaves a bad taste. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Marc G Watched 3 episodes, this is so god-awful. Isabella is a whiny unlikable character. It looks like Reba is just trying to fit in with this cast instead of the cast fitting in with her. I just can’t take it anymore. I will not be watching again. I put up with three episodes that is enough for me. I really truly sincerely had high hopes for this. what ever happened to fun? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Clark T I love Reba, but this is basically just a failed attempt at trying to recapture the feeling of the show Reba. It feels as if the supporting characters are trying just a little too hard to be funny instead of working on witty comedy. Belissa is still finding her footing in the business and hopefully as the show continues she continues to learn from all her co-stars. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/31/24 Full Review Read all reviews
