Nickelodeon is bumping up the nostalgic factor with a revival of its sketch comedy series All That that originally ran for ten seasons from 1994 to 2005. The new All That will debut Saturday, June 15th at 8:30 pm ET/PT and will hold onto to that timeslot in the weeks following. We’ll see original cast members Kel Mitchell, Lori Beth Denberg, and Josh Server return with former cast member Kenan Thompson (now a long-time member of SNL) as an executive producer, along with Mitchell and Kevin Kay.
Below you can find the description for the seven new cast-members, provided by Nickelodeon:
- Ryan Alessi – Born and raised in Chicago, Ryan Alessi, 14, began studying improv comedy at age eight with The Second City Improvisational Comedy Troupe. After moving to Los Angeles, he started studying with The Groundlings and developing his own characters and performing various impressions and accents.
- Reece Caddell – A Denver native, Reece Caddell, 12, started acting at the age of five and began performing sketch comedy when she started a YouTube channel with her two older sisters.
- Kate Godfrey – Kate Godfrey, 15, is an actress, singer and dancer from Scottsdale, Ariz. She began her career in her local community theater at the age of nine and was quickly accepted to the Broadway Youth Ensemble where she performed in New York City.
- Gabrielle Green – Gabrielle Green, 14, moved to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career after studying theatre at BAK Middle School of Performing Arts in West Palm Beach, Fla. Her credits include acting, voiceover work and working as a brand representative.
- Nathan Janak – Originally from Sugar Land, Texas, Nathan Janak, 14, began acting at six years old. In 2016, he participated in a nine-month intensive actor training program and later moved to Los Angeles. Janak has previously been seen as a guest star in Nickelodeon’s “Henry Danger.”
- Lex Lumpkin – Lex Lumpkin, 13, is an actor, singer, writer, impressionist and pianist from Indianapolis. His acting career began two years ago when he played the role of “Stuart” in the Indianapolis Repertory Theater’s production of “Stuart Little.”
- Chinguun Sergelen – Raised in Chicago, Chinguun Sergelen, 13, began acting at age nine. He is a Youth Ensemble member at The Second City Training Center Chicago and Laugh Out Loud Theater.
On June 15 , the three former cast members will offer sage advice to the new generation of All That and it is teased that we will see some classic All That personas return, such as Mitchell’s Good Burger server Ed, Denberg’s Vital Information segment, as well as the Loud Librarian.
The Jonas Brothers will then close the show with their performance of Sucker. All That was definitely a key part of any 90s kid’s upbringing and essentially was the tween/teen version of SNL. Some skits we still repeat to this day and the skit show spawned a handful of its own spin-off movies and TV shows such as the Amanda Show and Kenan & Kel.
Now, a new generation will enjoy All That, so let’s see how it is received on June 15th.
