Melissa Peterman is throwing it back to the good ol' days! 

In a new Instagram post, the 51-year-old actress—who starred along Reba McEntire on the sitcom Reba from 2001-2007—reminisced on an old photo of the former co-stars on set while getting nostalgic over her time on the popular TV series. 

"Throwback Thursday to that time I went to work everyday and didn't know how much it was going to change my life," Peterman wrote alongside an old photo print that shows her wrapping her arms around McEntire, who appears to be making a confused look at her in the pic.

"I met people who are still in my life today and am grateful to call friends," Peterman—who played the character of Barbra Jean—continued in her caption on Thursday, Dec. 8. "Anything good I bring to a set now, I learned there. Anything else, it's on me." 

The Baby Daddy alum also took the opportunity to plug the new TV special, Superstar: Reba McEntire, which aired the same night on ABC. 

"In case you missed 'Superstar: Reba McEntire' tonight on ABC," Peterman wrote. "You can stream it tomorrow on Hulu." 

The new one-hour special follows the journey of McEntire, 67, an Oklahoma native, on her road to fame and her prolific career over the last 45 years. 

Earlier this week, Peterman—who appears in the ABC program—shared a teaser of the Big Sky actress' new special to Instagram, showing her followers a snippet of the sit-down interview she did to talk about her old friend. 

"When you say Melissa Peterman I can't do anything but smile and laugh," the country icon is heard saying in the video, which then pans to a throwback clip of the two women acting together on Reba

Speaking about their characters on the show, Peterman says, "She has to get along with me because I get to share her kids with her," as McEntire played the ex-wife of Barbra Jean's current husband, Brock Hart (Christopher Rich). 

"Reba was very vocal about wanting to make this seem real too, that relationship of a step parent," Peterman adds. "And that, like it or not, they are in your life and you gotta figure it out."

"This time someone filmed me while I talked about her!" Peterman captioned her Instagram post, while telling her followers to tune in to watch the special. 

"It was a pleasure to be included. Love you @reba" she added.
