It's a little wild and a little strange when you make your home out on the range. And no one knows that better than the cast of Hey Dude, who gathered under the same roof for the first time in almost 25 years at the ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas, on June 6.

Before they took to the stage to reminisce about the two years they spent making four seasons of Nickelodeon's beloved series, David Brisbin (Bar None owner Mr. Ernst), David Lascher (heartthrob and troublemaker Ted), Christine Taylor (girl-next-door Melody), Debrah Kalman (ranch hand Lucy), Jonathan Galkin (Mr. Ernst's nephew Jake), Geoffrey Coy (handsome cowboy Kyle), and Josh Tygiel (Mr. Ernst's son Buddy) grabbed a Sharpie and a notepad to take BuzzFeed on a walk down memory lane.

(Kelly Brown, who played rich girl Brad, was unable to make it due to a family emergency, and you'll see what the cast has to say about the absence of Joe Torres, who played Native American Bar None staffer Danny.)

Below, find out what life behind-the-scenes of Hey Dude was really like!
