Country music legend Reba McEntire’s eponymous sitcom “Reba” ran from 2001-2007 on The WB and The CW, and it is still beloved by millions of fans to this day. That’s why it’s come as a welcome surprise to fans when McEntire said this week that she is more than open to doing a reboot of the show.

“I’d even like to do a reboot of the Reba TV show,” McEntire told Taste of Country Nights. “That would be a lot of fun because we had so many stories we were wanting to tell when they canceled us, so we were shocked.”

The show starred McEntire as Reba Hart, a mom of three whose ex-husband Brock (Christopher Rich) left her to marry his dental hygienist Barbra Jean (Melissa Peterman), who became pregnant during their affair. The show can now be seen in syndication on CMT, Freeform and Hulu.

“We had no idea why they canceled us,” McEntire said. “We were a huge success, so it was a head-scratcher for us. So to come back now… that amount of time, that time spread, we’d have a lot of stories to tell.” The singer added that she “would love” to do another sitcom in general, but it seems she’s especially keen on a new iteration of Reba, which she has been discussing for several years.

“We’d love to, as a matter of fact, we’ve been texting each other,” McEntire said. “Melissa Peterman started it out and we’re all talking, hoping to get back together. We miss each other. It was a fun group to get to play with, work with, so we’d love to do it. Even if it’s two-hour movie or a… I don’t know, whatever. We’d love to get back together. They’re wonderful people.”

McEntire told Entertainment Tonight back in 2017 that there had been talks about reviving the show, so this has been in the works for quite some time.

“There have been some in the past and hopefully some in the future too,” she said. “We’d love to do it.”
