Review of All That

All That (1994–2020)
10/10
Forget the newer one, stick with the classic "All That"
9 December 2008
Back in the 90's, Nickelodeon was at its absolute prime, giving us genuinely funny shows such as "Rocko's Modern Life", "Kenan & Kel", "The Angry Beavers" and many more, including "All That". The 90's "All That" was great: the sketches were very funny and the original cast were talented (I especially liked Lori Beth Denberg); comedy was a natural thing for all of them and never tried too hard to be funny.

However, as the years went by and the original cast got older, one by one they left the show and "All That" was going going down hill at an astonishing speed. The newer "All That" nowadays is just horrible: the new cast are completely untalented and unfunny- they are just irritating and are trying way too hard to be funny but they are not- and the sketches are equally unfunny and just plain stupid. And for added insult, the newer cast have ruined classic, hilarious sketches from the original cast, such as the Good Burger sketch and Vital Information. I assume the audience for the newer cast are only laughing to be polite, but frankly I didn't even chuckle at the sketches. I also assume that Britney Spears' younger sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, is only on the show to boost the audience ratings.

So in conclusion, avoid the new "All That" at all costs as it is devoid of all comedy. Instead watch the old "All That" and have a good laugh to your heart's content.
