All That

The older episodes were much better. Nowadays it SUCKS BIG TIME. I miss the old cast. The only funny thing nowadays is "Know Your Stars", which is getting old already. I remember seeing a really funny episode when a guy played by Kenan Thompson askes for a large fry, and accually gets a really big fry. Good Burger was good too! This newer stuff is trash. On air dares? Don't make me barf! BRING BACK THE OLD ALL THAT!

I adore Lori Beth, she should come back with her advice thing. Amanda Bynes was great but when she was younger she was kind of annoying. I like Lori Beth in the library when she says to be quiet and then is all noisy. Keep it up Lori!

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.

When I first saw this show on my aunt & uncle's Cable TV system, I wondered, "Who are these kids, and what is this show besides the funniest variety show this side of Saturday Night Live?" Now I watch it any chance I can get. Some of the funniest skits include "Vital Information," with Lori Beth Denberg(...and now Danny Tamberelli), and "Ask Ashley," starring the seemingly irrepressible Amanda Bynes, a young girl so outrageously hilarious, she HAD to get spun off on her own show. In fact, if Lorne Michaels wants to bring SNL out of it's slump, he should hire her as a guest host. I'm serious. She's that good.

Improvisational comedy for kids didn't begin with this show, nor is it likely to end with it, but in the history of variety television, "All That" should stand out, as a landmark show, due to it's ability to make kids and adults chuckle, and achieve a level of success that shows like "Flip" (1988) and "Way Cool" (1991) could never have had.

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!

Just a few days ago I was telling my friend about how I missed the nick shows and everybody began to talk about it. I miss the FUN nick used to have All That, Are you afraid of the dark, and more. WHAT HAPPENED??? Nick has dropped to an all time low. I would love for them to cancel ALL of the new shows and air nothing but old shows their ratings would go through the roof^^^^^^^^^^^. I thought I was the only person who missed it but I'm glad I'm not. what happened to good burger, or vitual information with Lori. WHAT HAPPENED. Nick why don't you tell us all old nick TV watchers what happened. cause we want old nick back.CANCLE these unwanted shows right now: Drake and josh, Zoey 101, Chalkzone, All grown up, My dad the rock star, Unfabulous, and those other stank shows you have one nick cause of who they knows or who their related to or whatever.
