In episode 3, one of Carli's exes (John Schneider, but that's not the allusion) shows up with a new rich girlfriend, played by...you guessed it!...Reba McEntire. The ep puts the two actresses in the opposite roles as their characters on Reba.
Back in the first episode, Carli (played by the rather tall Melissa Peterman) mentions that growing up, she acquired the nickname "Blondzilla," a nickname Barbara Jean also had on Reba.
Dawson Casting: Lachlan Buchanan, who plays Scott, Carli's oldest, was 20 at the time of filming.
Underage Casting: Courtney Merritt, who plays Pam, Carli's middle child, was 21.
