Melissa Peterman and Reba McEntire Reunite for New NBC Sitcom Pilot

The duo teams up again for a comedy about family and unexpected partnerships, with 'Reba' producers on board.

Melissa Peterman is reuniting with Reba McEntire for a new NBC sitcom pilot, marking a significant collaboration since their time on the show 'Reba'.
The untitled comedy pilot will feature McEntire as Bobbie, who inherits her father's restaurant and discovers a new business partner in her previously unknown half-sister.
Belissa Escobedo joins the cast as Bobbie's half-sister, Isabella, bringing a fresh dynamic to the storyline with her psychology background.
The pilot also sees the return of 'Reba' executive producers Kevin Abbott, Michael Hanel, and Mindy Schultheis, alongside new addition Julie Abbott.
This project marks McEntire's return to sitcoms after her last series role and is the first pilot order for the 2024 broadcast season following industry strikes.
