All That

First off, I've read too many complaints about All That, and how lame it is, now that we've "grown up." GET A LIFE. If you want lame, watch the new All That. You'll be crying for something serious in about a minute, I promise you.

I don't know. Maybe I haven't grown up, or you all grew up too much, too fast. I would give just about anything to have all of the All That episodes on DVD, to watch them again and again, because I grew up with those guys, and it brings back very fond memories of my childhood, something that I don't often "click into." All That was real comedy, something that also is pretty rare around here these days.

To any of my All That guys that are reading this: I miss you.

"All That" used to be one of the funniest shows on Nick. I started watching it when it began back it 1995 when I was eight years old. I remember watching it whenever it aired with my sister and brother, who both also enjoyed it. Sometimes even my parents would watch it and get some good laughs.

"All That" can be seen as "Saturday Night Live" for younger viewers. It was full of hilarious sketches and musical performances starring a teenage cast.

When the show began in 1995 it a had a fresh good cast. Some members of the good cast included: Angelique Bates, Josh Server, Amanda Bynes, Danny Tamberelli, Kenan Thompson, and Kel Mitchell. However, in 2001 things began to change. The scripts weren't as funny as they used to be and new cast members came that began to destroy the show including Jamie Lynn Spears, who just can't act for her life.

Overall I give the old cast of "All That" from 1995-2000 10/10 stars and the new cast from 2001 to the present 4/10 stars.

Back when this show started in 1995, the cast, mainly the players like Keenan Thompson, Lori Beth Denburg, and Kel Mitchell, were all very talented and extremely funny, which made All That one of my favorite shows on Nick.

However, fast forward to 2005....and it's simply not the case. What was once a smart, funny show has now been replaced with a bunch of talentless teens running around on stage, pretty much saying "Look at us, we're funny! Laugh at us!" I watched an episode of All That on tape from 1995, then caught a new one from 2005. The differences are vast and very big. The 2005 All That episode was filled with unfunny sketches, and actors and actresses who were basically trying waaaaaaaaaay to hard to be funny and not succeeding in the least. (It's pretty much the same thing as the god awful "Amanda Show".) At least the 1995 version had funny sketches like Good Burger and such.

Overall, avoid the All That of now like the plague, but try and hunt down the older episodes if you can.

I completely agree, when "all that" first aired with it's original cast back when Kenan and Kel were on and that one girl who went on to do the Steve Harvey show, it was so funny! Remember the cooking show skit where everything is made out of chocolate! ha. Now it is the most ridiculous show to watch, it's very short, and all of the cast members aren't funny, they just act all cute and sit there all pretty and it's just stupid. It's a waste of air-time if you ask me. At least the old cast was funnier and more unique! I think Nickelodeon has run out of good ideas... I really wish that they would play some of there old shows like all that, and I used to love are you afraid of the dark!

the new show is pure CRAP! when i was 4 (all that started) i didn't understand half of the stuff but it was my favorite show. Lori in the library was SO funny, and i didn't really get what Pierre es cargo was supposed to mean, but now i luv it! they should stop showing all that completely if they cant get funny people on there. the ONLY person i like now is Ryan Coleman and thats only because hes hot. i loved every single old cast member on the old show (i wish more than anything they would at least show reruns instead of this bull crap) especially Lori, Amanda, kel, kenan, Danny, and josh. i don't see how this show is even allowed to be on TV nowadays cause it totally SUKS!
