The six-season sitcom had country singer Reba McEntire cast as Reba, the matriarch of the Hart family. The iconic musician's comedic performance became the "People's Choice Award for Favorite Female Performer," as reported by Wide Open Country.

The show tells the story of divorced Reba Hart raising three children while dealing with her ex-husband and his new partner in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. After the show ended in 2007, cast members took on other acting projects.
