Reba McEntire is one of the most in-demand names in television right now. In addition to her recurring role on The Voice and the yet-to-be-named comedy that’s currently in the works at NBC, the showrunners behind Young Sheldon are reportedly vying to get one more guest appearance out of her.

Executive producer Steve Holland recently told TVLine that they’re in discussions with McEntire about having her return to the Young Sheldon set before the end of the show’s seventh and final season this spring.

“We would love to have her back,” Holland said. “She’s expressed interest, but she’s very busy. She has another [sitcom] pilot that she’s shooting…so I just don’t know if it’s going to work out.”

“It’s just a matter of logistics,” he added.

Fans of the CBS hit will recall that McEntire made her debut as hairstylist June Ballard, ex-wife of Dale (Craig T Nelson), in season three. The country legend appeared in a total of six episodes through season five.

The current season of Young Sheldon airs Thursdays at 8pm EST on CBS. A one-hour series finale is scheduled for May 16, and will be followed by a spinoff series centered around Georgie and Mandy in the near future.

Fingers crossed Reba makes some room in her schedule for one more episode with the Coopers!
