What happened to Reba?
This sharp, big-hearted comedy starring Reba McEntire became one of The WB's biggest hits — and CONTINUES to be popular today!
But, it wasn’t without its drama...
The creator wanted another actress (a 2-time Oscar winner) for the lead role, the show changed names at the 11th hour, the creator got FIRED, and then the show was abruptly cancelled despite STILL being one of the network’s most popular comedies — and then...they brought it back.
Here's the story of what happened behind the scenes of Reba — a show that continues to survive.
