Reba McEntire’s Completely satisfied’s Place is continuous on the 2025 TV schedule, and after premiering within the fall, it’s already grow to be a fan-favorite. That is partly as a result of the present is an enormous Reba reunion with McEntire, Melissa Peterman, and the manufacturing workforce from the ‘00s sitcom all engaged on it. Steve Howey additionally appeared on Completely satisfied’s Place, and there are probably extra reunions down the road. Nevertheless, Reba will not be the one present Completely satisfied’s Place is related to, as there’s a stunning Younger Sheldon connection too.
Among the many forged for Completely satisfied’s Place is CSI: Miami alum Rex Linn, who can be McEntire’s accomplice IRL. Linn performs the tavern’s cook dinner and McEntire’s character’s love curiosity. The 2 are celebrating their fifth anniversary this week, because the singer famous in a candy Instagram put up, and it’s all due to Younger Sheldon that their longtime friendship become one thing extra, as she advised Glamour:
Rex and I knew one another in 1991 after I was doing The Gambler film with Kenny Rogers. We met then and would see one another all through the years. After which in 2020, I obtained a visitor spot on Younger Sheldon, which he was on, in addition to [actor] Melissa Peterman.
Linn recurred on Younger Sheldon all through its seven-season run as Medford Excessive College principal Tom Petersen. McEntire later joined in a recurring function starting with the third season as June, Dale’s ex-wife and an area hairdresser. There are many actors who dated co-stars in actual life, and it looks like Linn and McEntire couldn’t refuse the sentiments between each other.
Plus, the timing all figuring out completely, as The Voice coach defined:
I couldn’t get shut sufficient to Rex after we had dinner January of 2020. We’d been mates. I’d seen him just like the April earlier than, simply mates. Timing’s all the pieces. All the pieces occurs for a cause.
Since McEntire and Linn have been mates for a very long time, it’s potential that their relationship might have began with out Younger Sheldon. Nevertheless, in actuality, we’ve the CBS present to partially thank for his or her relationship.
Regardless that Reba McEntire and Rex Linn’s characters by no means obtained collectively on Younger Sheldon, the identical can’t be mentioned for his or her characters on Completely satisfied’s Place. Bobbie lastly admitted her emotions for Linn’s Emmett, and it’s clear that there’s something there between them (although Emmett hasn’t mentioned something). Since Completely satisfied’s Place obtained a full-season pickup, it ought to be enjoyable to see what occurs and if their relationship will ever ultimately develop into one thing extra. But when life imitates artwork, I assume they are going to ultimately get collectively, and I can not wait to see it.
Younger Sheldon could also be over, however followers with a Max subscription can at all times rewatch the sitcom and the beginnings of a real love story. In the meantime, new episodes of Completely satisfied’s Place return on Friday, January 31 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC, and they’re out there to stream the subsequent day with a Peacock subscription.
General, McEntire and Linn’s relationship is simply proof that yow will discover love at any age, and hopefully, Emmett and Bobbie will quickly have that very same blissfully in-love relationship as effectively within the close to future.
