'Happy's Place' is NBC's latest bar-centric sitcom. Hear from one of the stars

Co-host Bruce Miller has been binging a lot of TV. He has seen the final episodes of "The Pitt" and shares that it will be an emotional ride to the end. He's seen "The Comeback" and the new show from Steve Carell, "Rooster," which doesn't live up to some of his past projects.

And then there is Reba McEntire, who has moved between music and television throughout her career. She's back with another season of "Happy's Place," another program that brings an ensemble to a bar setting. 

In this episode, Pablo Castelblanco, who plays Steve on "Happy's Place," talks with Miller about the show and his background.

And co-host and "Star Wars" superfan Terry Lipshetz talks about the latest animated series coming in April, "Star Wars: Maul — Shadow Lord." Also coming soon: "The Handmaid's Tale" spinoff "The Testaments."
