Sketch comedy has been a staple of television for decades, and 25 years ago a younger generation got in on the game when Nickelodeon debuted All That, on April 16, 1994.

The show was created by Brian Robbins and Mike Tollin and featured Dan Schneider as head writer (later showrunner). Tollin would later produce other hit shows such as Smallville and One Tree Hill, while Schneider created numerous other Nickelodeon shows like The Amanda Show, Drake & Josh, Zoey 101, iCarly and more. All That came out of previous collaborations between Robbins, Tollin and Schneider, who set out with the goal to create a kid-friendly version of Saturday Night Live.

All That’s cast was set before the pilot was even written – somewhat of a reversal of how pilots are usually handled. Among the initial lineup of cast members were Lori Beth Denberg, Kel Mitchell, Josh Server, and Kenan Thompson. Notable additions in later seasons included Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon, Danny Tamberelli, and Gabriel Iglesias.

Popular recurring sketches from the show’s history include “Ask Ashley,” “Vital Information,” “Everyday French with Pierre Escargot,” and “Miss Piddlin,” though by far the most notable standout was “Good Burger.” The sketch featured Kel Mitchell as a bumbling cashier at the titular fast food restaurant; this sketch would later be turned into a full-length feature film.

Besides the Good Burger film, there were a handful of spinoff shows out of All That, such as Kenan & Kel, The Amanda Show, and The Nick Cannon Show.

All That proved to be hugely popular with kids and was noted in particular for its diverse cast during a period of time on television where shows were largely segregated by race. The show also included diverse musical acts from a variety of genres.

In early 2019, Robbins – now president of Nickelodeon – announced that All That will be revived in summer 2019, with original cast members Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell returning to serve as executive producers.
