Reba Reunion Heats Up Happy's Place!
6 Dec
Summary
- JoAnna Garcia Swisher to guest star on Happy's Place.
- She previously starred with Melissa Peterman on Reba.
- Her character Kenzie will handle social media marketing.
Happy's Place is gearing up for a significant reunion as JoAnna Garcia Swisher is confirmed to appear in an upcoming episode. Swisher, best known for her role on the iconic sitcom Reba, will step into the role of Kenzie, a Knoxville-based influencer tasked with spearheading Happy's Place's new social media marketing campaign. This development has already sparked excitement among fans, particularly given Swisher's previous on-screen chemistry with fellow Reba alum Melissa Peterman, who stars as Bobbie in the new series.
Peterman herself had pitched a humorous idea for Swisher's character, suggesting she could have been a surrogate who later conned her. While that concept didn't materialize, the actual guest spot promises a dynamic addition to the show. Creator Kevin Abbott confirmed that the production team is actively working on integrating Swisher, stating they want to ensure her role is both fun and meaningful, even if brief. They are currently deliberating between a couple of potential characters to best suit her talents.
Swisher's involvement marks another exciting guest appearance for Happy's Place, following other beloved cast members from Reba who have joined the show. The series airs on NBC on Fridays at 8 p.m. ET and is available for streaming the following day on Peacock. This anticipated reunion is expected to draw significant viewership from fans of both Happy's Place and the enduring legacy of Reba.
