I used to watch Reba all the time when it came on because I LOVED Barbara Jean. Well guess what? Now there is a new show getting ready to come out on CMT starring Melissa Peterman who played Barbara Jean on Reba.
I got to watch the Pilot episode on the One2One Network and I instantly fell in love with this show. I think what I really liked about this show is you have this woman doing her best to make ends meet. She is just a regular woman with kids and the ability to juggle life. She is funny and does her best to try and make things work for her family!
About the show:
WORKING CLASS focuses on Carli Mitchell (Melissa Peterman), a single mom from a rough and tumble background, trying to give her kids a better life by moving them to an upscale suburb. She quickly finds that making the transition to “the good life” is harder than she thought.
She’s unwittingly befriended by her cranky neighbor, Hank (Ed Asner), her only “career” prospect is a glorified deli job at the local grocery store, and the man she falls for not only already has a girlfriend – but he’s also her boss, Rob (Patrick Fabian). With her ladies-man brother, Nick (Steve Kazee), to help her out (when he’s not acting like one of the kids himself), Carli faces the challenges of parenting, dating, and making friends in her new community by doing more with less, staying true to herself, and approaching each day with a touch of working class.
WORKING CLASS premieres January 28 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT on CMT.
Premiere Episode: “The Buddy System”
Carli’s old flame from high school shows up hoping to re-ignite his “spark” with Carli — even if it means humiliating her in front of her new boss.
Be sure to watch the premiere episode. I’ll send a reminder out the day its on. You will LOVE this show, especially if you watched Reba!
