Emma Kenney Teases Unexpected Drama Unfolding on 'Happy's Place'

The Roseanne and The Conners actress Emma Kenney, who played Harris Conner-Healy in both series, is about to pay a visit to Happy’s Place as Gracie, the daughter of Reba McEntire’s Bobbie!

Talking to TVLine, Kenney described Gracie as “strong-willed” and “tough,” just like her mother Bobbie—no wonder, since Gracie is in the military. Kenney also hints that there might be some conflict between Gracie and her new aunt Isabella (played by Belissa Escobedo), who inherited half of her father’s business after he passed away.

Kenney will appear in only one episode of Happy’s Place, which airs on January 10, but she would love to return to the series if it succeeds.

So far, nine episodes have aired, with eleven total episodes scheduled. The whole season is supposed to consist of 18 episodes, as it was picked up for more installments in November of last year, giving it a full-season order.

Let’s hope the show does well, and that we get to see more of Kenney’s Gracie on our screens, whether later this season or (hopefully) in season two.
