Popular country music singer Reba McIntyre stars in this hit family comedy series that airs on the WB channel. Reba is a recently divorced parent of three, whose dentist husband Brock (Christopher Rich, MURPHY BROWN) has left her for his painfully perky--and pregnant--assistant, Barbra Jean (Melissa Peterman, FARGO). Simultaneously, she learns that her 17-year-old daughter Cheyenne (JoAnna Garcia, FREAKS AND GEEKS, PARTY OF FIVE, AMERICAN PIE 2) is pregnant as well, and she intends to marry her football-star boyfriend, Van (Steve Howey). Reba's daughter Kyra (Scarlett Pomers, STAR TREK: VOYAGER) is in the early stages of a rebellious and precocious adolescence, while her youngest son, Jake (Mitch Holleman, DADDIO), maintains a calm within the storm. The trials and travails of this offbeat family are presided over by the take-charge, loving Reba, who manages to save the day almost every time, and whose motherly wisdom and openhearted good humor carries the show. In the second season, Cheyenne and Van struggle to balance the needs of their new baby with their college careers, while Reba takes a job working for Brock, and begins a new relationship with Brian, whom she meets through speed-dating.
