When Lori Beth left, and as I got older my tastes changed.
I'm a 90's kid, and All That was one of the best shows EVER for me as a kid. All That was on when I could actually watch Nickelodeon. Now there's a bunch of stupid shows on TV. But I loved the original cast of All That, they were the best. What jumped the shark for me was the sucky new cast in 2000. The show wasn't the same. Look at the video I found on YouTube of a claasic All That sketch... with the originals.

Now All That seasons 1,2 and 6 will air on the n.Starting August 8th then pilot will air on nick august 7th for one night only at 8:00pm EST.
Another classic nick show. Got stupid with new cast members (ex:Jamie Lynn Spears; only reason she was on there was because she's Britney Spears's sister) and ridiculous sketches like Jim Tasty (wtf).
I personally think it never really jumped, I liked both the old and new casts,and I can't stand lori beth, i am glad she left the show she was annoying and not very funny, vital information was better without her
When I was younger, my cousin, sister, and I used to watch this show on Nick when Kenan and Kel were on it along with Amanda Bynes and all the other cast, who were very funny.

I remember the segment with Kenan in the bathtub speaking "French" lol that was classic.

This used to be one of the most entertaining shows on tv. Then, a few years ago, I saw it on tv and had nothing else to do but watch it.

There was only one problem. It wasn't the same great cast that I remembered watching and laughing at in the past. It was a bunch of kids who were trying too hard to keep up with how the show was in its prime. It really bothered me that the kids at this time wouldn't experience such a great show.
It kinds of reminds of when tv shows have terribly unsuccessful spin-offs. It was like Joey after Friends, one element stays the same and we just watch the show to reminisce about Friends lol
Ah, the 90's! Finding this makes me want to go back and relive them all over again! All That was the bomb, and the game shows (Figure it Out, those ones where the kids did those obstacle courses, and the early cartoons (Angry Beavers, Doug, Rocko's Modern Life). Unfortunately, I could only watch this and other shows at my grandparents' houses, and Nickelodeon was well past its prime by the time my parents got satellite. Never watched again when they got the new cast off the street, probably paying them less than half what they paid the original crew.
I miss Lori Beth with Vital Information, Ask Ashley, and GoodBurger. GoodBurger was never one of my favorites when it was still going, but then I realized how much I missed it. I didn't mind Jamie Lynn Spears coming in, she wasn't that bad, but Christina and Ryan were horrible. "Oh, yeah, if we sound hyper that will make EVERYTHING funn!!!!" I HATED SUGAR AND COFFEE!!! It was the most immature idea I've ever heard of. Do they think that kids are so stupid that they'll think this is actually funny?
Tie for new cast, and when Lori Beth stopped doing Vital Information.
ok who the heck is eddie mitchell??! sure, i know kel mitchell but i don't recall there being an EDDIE mitchell on all that. is that like kel's imaginary brother or something. anyways to the reviewer who went over the quality of all ten All That seasons, let me correct you that Angelique Bates didn't arrive in the second season. She's part of the original cast, meaning she was there in the very beginning with kenan, kel, lori beth, katrina, josh, and alisa. you probably meant to say season two was her last season with the show because she did indeed leave at the end of that season. So soon you know! She could've really made herself like kenan and kel did on that show if she stayed longer. i heard she left because her contract expired, well damn it, renew it then! spending two seasons on a show isn't gonna get you to stardom fast you know! If you think about it, Bates didn't that much of a contribution to All That back in its first two years. The only character i think most people remember her playing is Mandy from the Cooking With Randy And Mandy skits. Sure, she threw in a steve urkel impression and played penny i think in the superdude skits, but yeah, mandy was her ONLY recurring character on that show.
The show jumped when too many of the original cast members started leaving. I have all the early episodes on tape... may try to upload them when I get some time!
I Loved All That since it first started:

Season 1 was good
Season 2 was great even though Angelque Bates and Eddie Mitchell arrived.
Season 3 was great though that Amanda Bynes came was better and Alisa Reyes and Katrina Johnson left was even better.
Season 4 was the best because Leon Franison, Christy Knowings and Danny Tambelli came to the show and lori beth leaving was sad.
Season 5 was really the best when Nick Cannon and Mark Saul came to the show and Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell left the show was really sad.
Season 6 it was okay when Gabriele Urgells and it was the end of the golden era. When Amanda Bynes had her own show and Josh Server, Danny Tambelli and Christy Knowings wanted to leave the show. Eddie Mitchell left after the sixth episode of the sixth season.
Season 7 it was great when the show came back with the new cast.
Season 8 was better when Britney Spears' sister Jamie Lynn Spears came to the show and Bryan Harne left it was sad.
Season 9 was okay that first but got horrible when Christina and Ryan came to the show.
Season 10 it was really horrible because the show wasn't funny anymore.
yeah anyone know why the n doesn't show the first two seasons of all that?? youtube has like one or two episodes from those days but that's about it. i really would like to see the pilot!!! the very first "all that" shown on tv, you know, the sneak peek they gave in april '94 before nickelodeon let it become an official series later on in december of that year. If anybody has a tape of that ep., please let me know!!!
The decline was season six... Season five was okay, I mean, even though Lori Beth had left, there were enough sketches that she wasn't really a big part of (like Detective Dan. I LOVE Detective Dan!) that there was still lots to enjoy. But in season six, Kenan, Kel, Lori Beth, and Amanda had all left, and Josh was really the only remaining original cast member. And really, not even Josh Server is pretty enough to hold my attention span (shameless Josh Server fangirl. yup, that's me) without classic sketches like GoodBurger, Superdude, Ask Ashley, Coach Kreeton, and Vital Information (when Lori Beth did it. Danny was okay, but he wasn't Lori Beth.)
I was excited when I found out that they were going to start it up again, until I actually thought about it and realized that it was a different cast.
And ya know something else? The beginning of the new series, where they went around town looking for cast members? Completely ripped off the first episode of MadTV.
Well, that's my say.
All That is da bomb I watch it everyday
Kel Mitchell is my most fav on All That so All That my fav sketch comedy is ask ashley & good burger plus I like tha theme song preformed by TLC i'm lovin it mayne so GO ALL THAT.
