NEED TO KNOW

• Christine Taylor and David Lascher organized a reunion of their Hey Dude castmates — David Brisbin, Kelly Brown, Debra Kalman, Joe Torres, Geoffrey Coy, Jonathan Galkin and Josh Tygiel

• The cast and crew reunited at the Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson, Arizona, where the series was filmed from July 1989 to Aug. 1991

• Taylor talks about her wardrobe on the show and opens up about her feelings about it ending, prompted by fan questions

Christine Taylor was still working out her fashion sense in the early 90s… and didn’t necessarily share her costars’ sorrow when she learned the show was ending.

The actress, 54, recently got together with her Hey Dude… The 90’s Called! costar David Lascher and more of their cast and crew at the Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson, Arizona, marking the first time the Hey Dude cast returned to the set together.

During fan Q&A on the livestreamed event, an eagle-eyed fan asked Taylor if her outfit from the penultimate episode of the show, “Double Date,” was from her personal wardrobe.

“I was going to take matters into my own hands for the location shoot, and boy did I do well, with flowered leggings and a matching flower sweater that I oversized that I obviously loved enough to bring when I got cast on Saved By the Bell, to the wardrobe people there,” she laughed.

“Now I look at it, and my God, the fact that I got that in two shows is uh… and people recognize it.”

Another fan question asked about when the cast found out about the show’s conclusion. Castmates joked that Taylor was really ready to move on.

Taylor was with Kelly Brown when they got the call that the series would end with the fifth season.

“We got the call and we cried,” Brown said, adding, “You were kind of done though. Yours were tears of happiness.”

“I was done,” Taylor acknowledging, adding context to where the cast was at. “The thing I remember is maybe earlier in that last season, because our contracts were ending at that point and then there would have been the option to renew them if Nickelodeon wanted to renew the show, but we would then be able to leave if we wanted to.”

“And I remember, I sort of had expressed being ready to kind of go, move on to the next chapter. But then they started to bring in some characters,” she continued, recalling how it seemed as if they were gauging interest in younger cast members carrying the show on.

Taylor noted that although she knew she was “ready for the show to end for me,” she wasn’t against moving it forward afterward.

Hey Dude premiered on Nickelodeon in July 1989 and ran for five seasons until Aug. 1991. Each season took place over the summer and dealt with coming-of-age issues like friends and romance, while also spotlighting ranch life.

The reunion will be available in full for listeners who couldn’t make the live stream as an episode of Hey Dude… The 90’s Called! in the coming weeks.
