All That was an American live-action sketch comedy-variety show on Nickelodeon. It drew favorable comparisons to Saturday Night Live for its short comedic sketches and weekly musical guests.[1] The theme song for All That was performed by TLC.

The show first aired on April 16, 1994 as a "special preview" and debuted as a regular series on December 24, 1994.[2] All That originally featured mainly young adults, but from Season 7 onward, it made a big switch to feature only preteens.

The show was very popular during its run.[3] In fact, some of the cast members got their own spin-off shows including Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell (Kenan & Kel), Amanda Bynes (The Amanda Show), Nick Cannon (The Nick Cannon Show), Jamie Lynn Spears (Zoey 101) and Lil' JJ (Just Jordan). In 1997, Thompson and Mitchell starred in a big screen version of the sketch Good Burger. The sketch Action League Now! made a few appearances on All That before moving to a new Nickelodeon series in 1996 called Kablam!; they later spun off into their own short-lived series.[4] Also, Kenan Thompson has gone on to work on Saturday Night Live, where he (like on All That) has honed his famous Bill Cosby impersonation.[5]

All That lasted ten seasons before it was cancelled in 2005. The last episode aired on October 22, 2005.

Format

All That followed a cold open, sketch-comedy, musical guest format in its first six seasons and its tenth and final season. The cold opens took place in the green room five minutes before the show was to start. Usually, Kevin the Stage Manager (played by Kevin Kopelow) announced "Five minutes!" and saw that the cast was not ready. Some of these cold opens included playing spin the bottle and having to kiss a cactus, an octopus, or a chair; Alisa Reyes reenacting a fight on Kopelow; and guest star Mark Curry tying up Kenan Thompson and wearing his Superdude costume. In Season 7, the format was changed to a weekly host, musical guest format similar to that of Saturday Night Live.

Many of the sketches were original material, although Bill Cosby, Roseanne, Steve Urkel, Ross Perot, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush were impersonated by Kenan Thompson, Katrina Johnson, Angelique Bates, Johnson, Gabriel Iglesias, and an adult, respectively. The humor was very teen-oriented, such as Josh Server eating his own dandruff, or appearing on stage wearing only his underwear, or a cereal called Lucky Germs or Fruit Poots. From Season 7 onward, the humor was geared more toward younger viewers than the first six seasons.

In the first five seasons, All That used mostly urban contemporary musical guests (i.e. hip-hop and R & B), but in later seasons, All That aimed for more mainstream, pop and/or modern rock oriented acts.

Notable sketches

Good Burger was a recurring sketch that took place at a fast food restaurant. The cashier, Ed (played by Kel Mitchell in Seasons 1-5, played by Ryan Coleman in Season 9), was portrayed as a clueless teenager who always found a way to mess things up. He once brought his pet bugs to work and accidentally broke the aquarium. He knocked an actor unconscious, who was filming a Good Burger commercial and then Ed had to replace him. When the food critic (Sherman Hemsley) came in to review the restaurant, Ed put a puppy in his meal bag, forcing the manager, Mr. Baily, to ask him to leave, unaware that he was the food critic. Good Burger was later made into a 1997 movie starring Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell.

Vital Information was a sketch in which Lori Beth Denberg (later Danny Tamberelli and Lil' JJ, respectively) delivered words of wisdom, usually three sayings in a row. Some of these Vitals included:

  • If your bra is too tight, it's uncomfortable. If you're a boy and your bra is too tight, I'm uncomfortable!
  • If your teacher gives you an F, it is wrong to say "Well what do you expect moron! I didn't study!"
  • Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder how on Earth this song became so popular.
  • It's fun to play in the snow. It's less fun to play in a bathtub full of vomit

Superdude was a parody of Superman. The sketch revolved around a teenage superhero (played by Kenan Thompson) whose alter ego was named Mark Cant. His girlfriend was Penny Lane (a possible reference to the Beatles' song Penny Lane) (played by Angelique Bates, Alisa Reyes, and Christy Knowings) and his main nemesis was Milk Man (played by Josh Server). Superdude's one weakness was lactose intolerance, therefore all of his villains were dairy-themed: Milk Man, Butter Boy (Kel Mitchell), Cow Boy (Mitchell), YoGurl (Mitchell).

Ask Ashley was a sketch starring Amanda Bynes as a little girl named Ashley, who offered advice from her bedroom on a TV series. She was sweet and friendly until she read letters sent in by clueless viewers. The first letter that Ashley ever read was written by somebody who had no idea how to turn their peanut butter and jam sandwich over. After reading a letter, Ashley would go on violent a tirade against the letter's author. Her characteristic phrase, "Thaaaaat's me!" during the sketch became one of the sketch's trademarks.[6]

Ishboo (played by Kenan Thompson) was a foreign exchange student whose customs were rather unusual to Americans. It was proper in Ishboo's foreign land (which was never named, maybe somehwere in Central Asia) to shout "Walla Walla Woo!" and hide behind furniture in a panic after somebody sneezed. It was proper to bark like a dog while proposing a toast. It was customary to give your psychiatrist a live lobster on your first visit. Comedian Sinbad guest starred as Ishboo's father, Sinboo.

The Unreal World, a parody of MTV's The Real World, featured monsters such as Frankie (Played by Shane Lyons), a zombie (Jamie Lynn Spears), a mummy (Giovonnie Samuels), a vampire (Jack DeSena), a head (Christina Kirkman), and an accountant (Kyle Sullivan) who turned into a werewolf. This sketch was voted as the greatest in All That history on the 10th Anniversary Reunion Special

Repair Man, whenever a device, item, or equipment broke in a household, workplace or public area, Repairman (played by Kel Mitchell) appeared (usually by crashing into something on the way like a ceiling, roof, or wall). He claimed he was going to fix whatever was broken. However, he instead broke it to even further proportions, sometimes with a sledgehammer to the dismay of whomever owned whatever needed to be fixed. He found other things throughout the sketch to “repair.” In the beginning of the sketch when asked to identify himself he exclaimed, with a self-made echo, “I’M REPAIR MAN-MAN-MAN-MAN-man-man!!”

Cooking With Randy And Mandy was a sketch starring Kenan Thompson and Angelique Bates. The two played a duo named Randy and Mandy, who had their own cooking show on the fictional channel 106B. Every recipe concocted by the duo always contained massive amounts of chocolate (for example: spaghetti smothered in chocolate syrup, etc.) In one sketch, Randy gets in a hot tub that, instead of water, contains liquid chocolate.

The Loud Librarian was a sketch starring Lori Beth Denberg. As the title suggests, she portrayed a librarian who was very loud. She commonly honked her air horn while students are studying. She has also bowled, fought a bull, and had a herd of sheep in her library. Ironically, when someone else in the library made the tiniest sound, she would scream something like, "QUIET! THIS IS A LIBRARY! CAN'T YOU READ?! PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO STUDY! HOW CAN YOU BE SO RUDE?!" A trademark of the sketch was her air horn, and the signs she had placed around the library that read, "Quiet", "Stifle", "Hush", and "Shhh".

Whateverrrr! was a sketch starring Amanda Bynes and Christy Knowings as Gina and Jessica. They played a pair of loud, ditzy Valley girls who hosted their own television show. The duo commonly talked about very materialistic things, such as broken fingernails.

Everyday French With Pierre Escargot was a very common sketch that featured Kenan Thompson, sitting in a bathtub filled with suds, wearing a rain coat and matching hat. In the sketch, Thompson (as Pierre Escargot) would say silly phrases in badly-pronounced French, and then translate them in English. The sketch was commonly used to introduce the show's musical guest.

All That was created by Mike Tollin and Brian Robbins, with Dan Schneider serving as executive producer. Robbins and Schneider both co-starred in the ABC sitcom Head of the Class from 1986 to 1991.[7] Nickelodeon decided they wanted another sketch-comedy series to replace Roundhouse during its SNICK line-up.

The pilot episode of All That, which featured musical guest TLC and the first appearances of Baggin' Saggin' Barry, Earboy, Mavis & Clavis, and Miss Fingerly, first aired as a sneak preview in 1994. An unaired sketch called "Dream Remote" was made for the pilot episode; Kel Mitchell played a pizza delivery guy, who later served as Kel's inspiration for his Ed character from the Good Burger skits.[6]

All That debuted as a weekly series on December 24, 1994.[2] The official series debut featured musical guest Da Brat, the first appearances of Randy & Mandy, Vital Information, and Ed from Good Burger.[6]

The original cast members were, in alphabetical order: Angelique Bates, Lori Beth Denberg, Katrina Johnson, Kel Mitchell, Alisa Reyes, Josh Server, and Kenan Thompson. Pictured at the right is the original cast and producers, left to right: Creator Brian Robbins, Server, executive producer Dan Schneider, Mitchell, Thompson, unknown, Reyes, Bates, unknown, Johnson, unknown, Denberg, and unknown. Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell were considered to be the first breakout stars of All That, as they were the first two cast members to spin-off into Kenan & Kel.

Seasons 3 and 4 cast changes

In the third season, Amanda Bynes joined the show to replace the departing Angelique Bates, whose contract had expired. Bynes' characters and sketches included Ask Ashley, Space Sketch — which was simply a Star Trek parody, I Luv Lucy, and Meagen Marples, who loved to slap herself with liver.[6] About a year after Bynes' arrival, Katrina Johnson and Alisa Reyes left the show.

Season 4 saw not only the exit of Katrina Johnson and Alisa Reyes, but also the entrance of three new faces: Christy Knowings, Leon Frierson, and Danny Tamberelli. Tamberelli was the first cast member to star in another Nickelodeon series prior to All That, co-starring as Little Pete on the hit Nick series The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Tamberelli's characters and sketches included Jack Campbell: Fat Cop — an obese police officer who is obsessed with food, Hairy Spice from the Spice Boys, Cheeseburger Doyle: Private Eye — a talking chesseburger which doubles as a private investigator, a female bodybuilder named Helga, an unfrozen caveman/talk show host named Francis, and Vital Information, succeeding Lori Beth Denberg.[6]

Knowings' sketches and characters included Whateverrr!!! co-host Jessica — Whateverrr!!! was a recurring sketch which was set up like a talk show for teenage girls, the nurse for unlikely dentist Dr. Bynes (played by Josh Server), and the teacher when Lori Beth Denberg — who played teacher Miss Fingerly — had left the series. She also played Winter Wonders in a sketch called What Do You Do? This sketch was a parody of a game show on which several All That cast members had appeared as panelists, Figure It Out.[6]

Frierson's characters and sketches included Leroy & Fuzz in which he tortured a cheerful blue puppet named Fuzz, CJ of disco group CJ & the Cloudy Knights, and Billy Fuocko — a boy who liked shouting "I'm Billy Fuocko!" He once appeared in a Repairman sketch in which he played Repairboy and offered Repairman a second opinion.[6]

The entire Season 4 cast was, in alphabetical order: Amanda Bynes, Lori Beth Denberg, Leon Frierson, Christy Knowings, Kel Mitchell, Josh Server, Danny Tamberelli and Kenan Thompson. Denberg was replaced by Nick Cannon and Mark Saul.

Seasons 5 and 6

As the show was entering its fifth season, Lori Beth Denberg left. In a live chat on Nick.com, she reasoned that she left All That, because she "was getting older."[8] Danny Tamberelli succeeded Denberg in the Vital Information sketch, and Danny was given a new set and a new desk unlike that of Denberg's Vital Information. Joining the cast were Nick Cannon and Mark Saul.

Cannon's sketches and characters included Sweaty Spice from the Spice Boys, a parody of the Spice Girls; Latanya, a cashier at the convenience store Quick-N-Fast; and a bank robber in a superhero sketch called Boring Man. Saul's sketches and characters included Stuart, who would kidnap — and then pose as — a hall monitor, a cashier, a judge, and even Ashley in an Ask Ashley sketch; Rineheart the Dancing Monkey Boy; Nigel Forrester, a spoof of Steve Irwin and Nigel Thornberry; Ricardo, a ladies' man, and Dr. Maybe, a parody of Dr. No.

All That celebrated its star-studded "100th episode" during this season, although it was actually the 85th episode to be produced. This one-hour special was the only episode in the show's history produced live.[9] (The actual 100th episode occurred with the fifth episode of season 6, with Hoku as the musical guest.[9]) The Season 5 cast included, in alphabetical order: Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon, Leon Frierson, Christy Knowings, Kel Mitchell, Mark Saul, Josh Server, Danny Tamberelli, and Kenan Thompson.

The episode featured several celebrities: Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Nickelodeon's Clarissa Explains it All), Larisa Oleynik (Nickelodeon's The Secret World of Alex Mack), Robert Ri'Chard (Nickelodeon's Cousin Skeeter), and Britney Spears (in a taped video appearance; Spears was originally supposed to perform in person but had to back out due to a knee injury; Lauren Hill took her place) all made appearances. Former cast member Lori Beth Denberg, wearing her traditional Vital Information outfit, returned to the sketch for the last time, and former cast members Angelique Bates, Katrina Johnson, and Alisa Reyes made brief appearances on the red carpet. Kenan and Kel left after this season; Gabriel Iglesias joined in their place.

New era begins

Nickelodeon and Dan Schneider relaunched All That with an entirely new cast. In the meantime, All That skipped the 2000-2001 television season. Previously, Nickelodeon briefly canceled All That, then decided to continue the show.

File:ATCast1b.jpg
The Season 7 cast: (back row) Chelsea Brummet, Bryan Hearne, Kyle Sullivan; (front row) Shane Lyons, Lisa Foiles, Jack DeSena, Giovonnie Samuels.

The first episode of the "new" All That featured special guests Frankie Muniz and Aaron Carter and aired in 2001.[10] In this particular episode, Muniz was seen running around the streets grabbing random people to be the new cast members. Season 7 kicked off with cast members Chelsea Brummet, Jack DeSena, Lisa Foiles, Bryan Hearne, Shane Lyons, Giovonnie Samuels, and Kyle Sullivan.

Weekly guest stars

In conjunction with the seventh season, All That brought in weekly special guest stars who helped open the show and participated in some of the sketches. All That had featured some guest stars previously, including Dr. Joyce Brothers in one segment of Ask Ashley, Chris Farley in a Cooking with Randy sketch, and Sherman Hemsley in a cold open, and again in a Good Burger sketch.

Among the guest stars who appeared during this period were former cast members Kenan Thompson and Amanda Bynes. Thompson reprised his Principal Pimpell character in a Harry Bladder sketch, lunch lady Miss Pidlin in a Sugar & Coffee sketch, and Superdude. Bynes appeared as herself in a Sugar & Coffee sketch and reprised Ashley in a blooper "from the late-Nineties." Other special guest stars included, in no particular order: Melissa Joan Hart, Frankie Muniz, Tony Hawk, David Arquette, Britney Spears, Aaron Carter, Will Friedle, Christina Vidal, Matthew Lillard, Ray Romano, Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara (Spy Kids), Nick Carter, Justin Timberlake, Buddy Hackett, Barry Watson, Jennifer Love Hewitt , Tom Green, and Brittany Snow[11] Some viewers didn't appreciate the intensified emphasis on special guest stars since All That (unlike the 90 minute long Saturday Night Live or even the 60 minute long MADtv) was only a 30 minute program (including commercials).[12]

Eighth season

Joining the cast in Season 8 was Jamie Lynn Spears, who was previously better known for being the younger sister of pop star Britney Spears. In Season 9, Christina Kirkman earned her spot on All That by winning the R U All That: The Search for the Funniest Kid in America contest. Ryan Coleman, who was the runner-up, soon also got a part on the show midway into Season 9 to replace Bryan Hearne, who left at the end of Season 8.

10th anniversary

File:Normal ClassPhoto5.jpg
Various cast members and producers from All That's ten-year history. See the article for cast and crew identification.

In 2005, Nickelodeon celebrated the 10th anniversary of All That by airing episodes from the first six seasons in the week leading up to a "reunion special" hosted by Frankie Muniz on April 23. Ashanti and Bow Wow were the musical guests.

Kenan Thompson, Kel Mitchell, Josh Server, and Danny Tamberelli reunited on the show. In addition, Nick Cannon appeared on the special but only via satellite in a Repairman sketch. Other cast members attended but had no speaking parts (namely: Leon Frierson, Katrina Johnson, Alisa Reyes, and Mark Saul). Angelique Bates, Amanda Bynes, Lori Beth Denberg, Gabriel Iglesias, and Christy Knowings were no-shows. Jamie Lynn Spears reprised her security guard character Thelma Stump early into the special, not letting Frankie Muniz pass without any bacon.

A more recent sketch called The Unreal World was voted the funniest moment in All That history, and went up against the likes of such 1990s sketches as Kenan Thompson's Ishboo character and an older Good Burger sketch.[13]

Approximately 6.1 million total viewers watched the special on both its April 23 and April 24 airings, making it the top cable or broadcast program for the 2-11, 6-11, and 9-14 age demographics.[14] Pictured left are, left to right: Kel Mitchell, creator Brian Robbins, Kenan Thompson, Jack DeSena, Jamie Lynn Spears, Katrina Johnson, Alisa Reyes, Kianna Underwood, musical guest Bow Wow, Giovonnie Samuels, Christina Kirkman, Lisa Foiles, Denzel Whitaker, executive producer Dan Schneider, Chelsea Brummet, Ryan Coleman, Kyle Sullivan, Danny Tamberelli, Mark Saul, Leon Frierson, and Josh Server.

The last segment of this episode payed tribute to the ending soundclip of the original seasons. As the room for the 10 year anniversary party was empty, Keenan and Kel stood sleeping in the costumes of their roles as old men. Keenan woke up and says "Hey, wake up, the show's over," and Kel responds with his signature, "Ah yeah, kickin'". They then turn and slowly walk away as the screen fades to black in a dramatic yet subtle ending to the 10 year tribute.

Return of Vital Information

After a three season hiatus, All That decided to bring back the Vital Information segment with BET's Coming to the Stage winner Lil' JJ succeeding Lori Beth Denberg and Danny Tamberelli, respectively. Lil' JJ's very first Vital Information occurred during the 10th Anniversary Reunion Special. Some of his vitals throughout the season included:

  • If you're afraid of heights, don't climb a ladder. If you're afraid of marshmallows, don't climb a ladder made of marshmallows.
  • If your mama has a deep voice and hair all over her back, YOUR MAMA'S A DUDE!

Cancellation

After ten years on the air, All That came to an end. According to Lisa Foiles on her official Yahoo! group the rumors of the impending cancellation of All That were in fact, true. This was the message posted on Lisa's club by Lisa Foiles herself (as of September 5, 2005):

I know there's been a lot of speculating on the subject of All That being canceled, and I thought I'd be the one to tell you that it's true. All That has finally come to an end. I found out a few weeks ago, but didn't know if I should tell anyone. I guess if ten years is long enough for Friends, it's long enough for us, too! I probably would have moved on anyway, even if it didn't get canceled. I was getting a little too old for the show and I believe that it should always have a cast of younger kids, no older than 18. Where I will go from here, I'm not sure, but I have a few things in the works. All I ask is that you guys keep me and the other cast members in your prayers, that we can step into bigger and better things! :) So, I guess that's....All That!!! - Luv Alwayz~ Lisa

[15]

In January 2006, Nickelodeon and executive producer Dan Schneider officially decided to cancel All That after ten seasons. The last original episode, featuring musical guest Lalaine, aired on October 22, 2005. The Season 10 cast was Chelsea Brummet, Ryan Coleman, Jack DeSena, Lisa Foiles, Christina Kirkman, Kyle Sullivan, Kianna Underwood and Denzel Whitaker.

Spin-offs

The show has spawned numerous spin-offs during and after its run.

Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell were the first cast members to spin off onto another series. Kenan & Kel debuted in 1996 and ended in 2000. Kenan Rockmore worked at a grocery store, Rigby's, and always schemed to achieve fame or fortune. Kel Kimble was portrayed as a less-than-bright teenager who loved orange soda. Kenan and Kel would usually get into trouble at the end of the show. Kenan's father was portrayed by Ken Foree.

Amanda Bynes spun off next on The Amanda Show, which aired from 1999 to 2002. The Amanda Show was a sketch comedy show, much like All That. Cast members Drake Bell and Josh Peck would later spin off into another Nickelodeon series Drake & Josh. Notable sketches and characters included: The Klutzes, Blockblister Video (a parody of Blockbuster Video), Amanda's Jacuzzi, and the character Penelope Taynt (played by Bynes), who claimed to be Bynes' Number 1 fan and overused the word, "Please."

The Nick Cannon Show featured Nick Cannon "taking over" something each week. Some of the things he took over included music, Hollywood, the law, and sports. The show was canceled in 2003.

Zoey 101 stars Jamie Lynn Spears as a girl named Zoey Brooks, who goes to Pacific Coast Academy. Zoey has no idea that her best friend, Chase Matthews, has a crush on her. The show is presented as a teen comedy-drama.

Just Jordan stars Lil' JJ as Jordan Lewis. A boy who has lived in Arkansas all his life, until his family up and moves to Los Angeles, with Jordan having a hard time adjusting.

"Best of..." episodes:

The "Best of..." episodes were compiled to complete the sixth season. They included The Best of: Kenan Thompson, Kel Mitchell, Amanda Bynes, Josh Server, Danny Tamberelli, Lori Beth Denberg, Leon Frierson, Christy Knowings, food (titled Peas, Cheese, and a Bag of Chips), and Dates, Goats and Romance. The Season 6 cast included Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon, Leon Frierson, Gabriel Iglesias, Christy Knowings, Mark Saul, Josh Server, and Danny Tamberelli.
