The Cast Of All That What They Look Like From Their First Episode And Now

All That was the gateway to Saturday Night Live for kids who grew up in the 90s. What millennial doesn't remember getting home from school, turning on Nickelodeon and spending an ab-busting thirty minutes laughing at the cast's antics? From giving us Vital Information on life to airing the sketch that would eventually become the Good Burger film, All That did more to define 90s pop culture than the Backstreet Boys' hair stylist. This show provided the big break for comedy greats like Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon, and Kenan Thompson, and featured guest appearances by major celebrities Aaron Carter and Britney Spears.

Was the atmosphere on set as wacky and fun as the producers made it out to be? According to one former cast member, the adults in the studio weren't always kind to the child cast. Many All That stars ended up battling addiction and mental health issues later in life, or left show business altogether. We can't even find where some of the cast went off to… and a number of them are showing up in some strange and disturbing films. Who became a success after All That ended? Who spiraled out of control? And which cast member knits fake cacti and sells them on Etsy? Read on to learn what's become of your favorite childhood comedians.

20 Will Amanda Bynes Make A Comeback?

Amanda Bynes did not emerge gracefully from her childhood stardom. The famous comedian was making her name in romcoms with films like She's the Man and Sydney White when she was first arrested for a DUI and then committed to a psychiatric hospital. According to ew.com she's been struggling with her mental health for the past ten years. To the surprise of many fans, she recently announced her intention to return to acting.

According to The Daily Mail, she's now out of treatments centers, focused on getting her life back together and finishing her degree in fashion and design. Things are looking up for Amanda, but fans wonder how her past will impact her future in acting. We can't see her going back to something as lighthearted as Hairspray after all she's been through. It's good to see her out and about again, and we wish her all the best."

19 Soup AKA Zaakir Has A Thriving Rap Career

Announcer Soup was with All That from the start. We listened to his wacky commentary for over a hundred and twenty episodes… but what does he look like? Who is he? Turns out, All That was just a side gig; Soup (whose real name is Zaakir) was a member of gold-selling hip-hop group Jurassic 5 all through the 90s and is now pursuing a solo career in music, with his EP Still in Fullee Love being released last year. According to noiseyvice he continues to make appearances with Jurassic 5 and they've been helping him promote his new album. His life and career have been shaped by hip hop, but All That fans may be surprised to know that he's been credited in more episodes than any other actor on this list.

18 Kenan's Wife Is GORGEOUS

Kenan Thompson got his comedic start in All That, and since then he's become one of the most well-known names in sketch comedy. We knew he was destined for great things when we first saw him as Pierre Escargot, and he's only confirmed this after joining Saturday Night Live. Okay, now can we talk about his wife? Christina Evangeline isn't just gorgeous, she's got THE BEST Instagram we've ever seen. Modern art, her cute baby, landscape photography… this woman's got it all on her feed.

She made white, wide-leg pants work. She got her toddler to smile while playing with rose petals long enough to take a picture. We get that her husband is the famous comedian, but we can't help but feel like he's more lucky to have her than she is to have him.

17 Kel Still Does Sitcoms For Nickelodeon

Would Kenan Thompson be the comedian he is today without Kel? Kenan and Kel worked so well with each other in All That, they got their own spinoff AND movie. But while Kenan moved on to Saturday Night Live, Kel mostly stuck with Nickelodeon (while making the occasional hop to Disney). After Kenan and Kel, he did the voice acting for Wild Grinders and is now voicing a character in post-production on Game Shakers, a Nickelodeon sitcom about a group of kids who invent a best-selling video game.

Pretty much everything this guy does is wholesome, from working with Christian pop groups to hosting talent shows for at-risk youth. This child star does not have anything to worry about when his kids look him up on Google.

16 You Won't Believe How Jack DeSena Saved His Career

Jack DeSena was typecast on All That as a bespectacled nerd, so it may surprise some of our readers to find out that he voiced Sokka on Nickelodeon's hit animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. According to MTV.com, he's since gone onto a career in live-action TV, and that's probably because he avoided making a huge mistake: starring in the film adaptation of Avatar. The movie was universally panned by critics for everything from bad lighting to cultural insensitivity. Would he have gotten his role in Battleground if he'd acted in one of the biggest cinematic flops of the decade? We'll never know. And even though Transformers was a hit, we still think it's only possible to take him seriously as an actor because he just voiced Voltron instead of putting his face on that franchise.

15 Kevin Kopelow's Cousins For Life Is Coming Out This Year

Kevin Kopelow was the writer and producer for All That, though he wasn't above starring in a few skits himself. When the show got self-referential, he went onscreen as the stage manager, Kevin, who bore the slapstick consequences of the cast's antics. He and his fellow creator, Heath Seifert, wrote most of the All That material and went on to script The Amanda Show and Kenan and Kel. After the success of his and Seifert's sitcom, Austin & Ally, they decided to continue with the proven formula of sticking teenagers who argued all the time in the same house and scripted Cousins for Life, which is coming out this year. Will it bring us the same laughs as All That? Not likely, but given that this seems to be the only 90s show not getting a reboot, we'll take what we can get.

14 Chelsea Brummet: From Sketch Comedy To Low-Budget Horror

Chelsea Brummet starred on All That from season 7 to season 10, all the way up to its cancellation. She doesn't seem to be working on any acting projects at present - one of the last film credits from IMDB she got was as Cheerleader Jen in the straight-to-DVD 2010 movie Lure, a slashfest about a group of high school girls getting abducted from raves. As far as we can tell, most of her acting in the movie involved being tied up in a skimpy outfit.

What happened to comedy, Chelsea? It's a little strange that you were in a movie about missing girls because we can't find any sign of you on the Web anymore. Not even a Wikipedia entry! Want to let us know you're out there and not in some dungeon disguised as a slasher flick set? Please?

13 Is That Really Josh Server?

The boy with big ears grew up HOT. We can't believe that the gorgeous Josh Server was once a goofy, gawky teenager on All That. He went on to star in other Nickelodeon comedies, including Good Burger, The Amanda Show, and Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide, before moving on to a small role on Amazon's Good Girls Revolt. Now he's working on… a low budget horror movie called Sluagh, which is set to come out this year.

First Chelsea Brummet, now Josh Server? Is there some kind of connection between All That and the horror movie industry that we've been missing? Maybe he misses wearing prosthetic ears. Or maybe it's a way for them to work out their dark pasts… because as we'll see further down the list, things weren't always lighthearted on set.

12 Lisa Foiles Is SO Pretty Now

Wow, Lisa Foiles, just… wow. Who knew that the pigtailed sugar and coffee addict would grow up to be so pretty? Like Kel Mitchell, she's still dabbling in Nickelodeon sitcoms, but it looks like she's made the transition from cable to Youtube. Since 2013 she's played Jocelyn the Intern on web series Desk of Death Battle. She also runs the video game site Save Point, and makes appearances in Youtube videos by other content creators in the gaming community.

We can't imagine how she makes time to go to the gym with such a busy schedule, but she must work out - just look at her. We commend her for using that body to better the world, posing in a widely sold Girls of Geek calendar whose profits go to fighting breast cancer.

11 What Happened To Kyle Sullivan?

After All That, Kyle Sullivan seems to have disappeared completely. Not just from acting. From THE PLANET (okay, the internet.) According to IMDb, he hasn't acted in anything since 2007. He doesn't have an Instagram. There is a Kyle Sullivan on Twitter, but unless he got full facial reconstructive surgery it's not the same person. An exhaustive Youtube search reveals that he doesn't make appearances at ComiCon or cast reunions. Come on, Kyle, that's easy money! Where are you? Did you disappear into the same void that consumed Chelsea? We have a sinking feeling that we're going to see him credited in a horror movie sometime soon… oh wait, he already has. He's thanked for his assistance in the 2016 found footage horror film Uncaged. Kyle, please send us a sign so we know you haven't been eaten by werewolves.

10 Jamie Lynn Spears Is About To Have Her Second Baby

Jamie Lynn Spears famously got pregnant as a teenager while filming her show Zoey 101. She and her boyfriend got a lot of media attention as they got engaged, broke up, got back together again, and finally separated completely, all while the 16-year-old was dealing with taking a break from acting and raising her new baby. She disappeared from the public eye and came back on stage in 2013 to begin her country music career. Now, she's expecting baby number two with her husband, who's also named Jamie! Will this stall her career a second time, or will she keep recording music now that she has two children to raise? At 26, we hope it'll be a bit easier for her to balance career and family than when she was coping with a surprise pregnancy at 16.

9 Britney Spears Going On Tour This Year

It looks like Britney's back (again). Her roller coaster of fame overshadows her appearances on All That for most fans, but we have a soft spot for her part in one of the Good Burger skits. She's currently rebuilding her life and working to get custody of her sons back from Kevin Federline after her difficulties in 2008 (remember when she shaved her head?) so what better way to kick off this new chapter in her life than a comeback tour? She's starting her comeback by becoming a spokesmodel for fashion line Kenzo, though it's hard to tell it's actually Britney in some of those heavily airbrushed pictures. Will she get her boys back? What is Keven Federline spending all that child support money on? And what does she actually look like under all those layers of Photoshop? Hopefully, we get some answers as the year wears on.

8 Angelique Bates Speaks Out About The Struggles She Allegedly Went Through On Set

In 2016, shortly before the All That cast reunion, Angelique Bates spoke out in a video interview with media site The Shade Room about being physically and emotionally tormented on the set. She claims that it was so bad some days, people could hear her screaming for help on the street. In 1996 someone called Child Support Services in the studio, but Angelique was too afraid to tell the authorities what was going on. Now she's refusing to keep silent. With a vibrant hip-hop career and a beautiful family, she's clearly put the past behind her, though we imagine it's continuing to help her heal to speak up. Were any other cast members that went through this? We'll never know unless they decide to share their stories as well.

7 Danny Tamberelli Is In Punk Band Jounce

Danny Tamberelli was an overachiever when it came to children's programming, complementing his appearances on All That with voicing Arnold on The Magic School Bus. He still helps out with commentary on Nickelodeon's Splat, their lineup of reruns from classic 90s shows, but his main job nowadays is playing bass guitar and providing backup vocals for punk band Jounce. In all their promotional materials, the band always mentions that they have a member who was in Magic School Bus, though they usually don't mention Danny by name. Would you go to one of his shows or are you going to hold out until the next All That reunion? Who knows, maybe he'll be able to convince Britney to make an appearance at one of his concerts.

6 Drake Bell Is Leaving Nothing To The Imagination

Drake Bell made a couple of appearances on All That before moving on to The Amanda Show and Drake and Josh. We know him best from Totally Kyle, an Amanda Show staple that involved him talking in nonsensical hippie lingo about a random topic. Now, he's trying to make his career in music while wearing as little clothing as is humanly possible. He released his own nude photos on his Twitter after they were leaked on Valentine's day, showcasing his ripped abs and multiple tattoos. Why is he dropping suggestive photos like Kim K? Is he bent on shedding the child star label, or is his just proud of the result of many long hours in the gym? Whatever his reason for showing so much skin, his fans are pretty happy about it.

5 Aaron Carter: Road To Recovery?

Aaron Carter has probably made an appearance on EVERY major show from the 90s and early 00s… but what became of the artist who brought "I Love Candy" into the world? Unfortunately, nothing good. After he faded into obscurity, he was arrested on suspicion of narcotics possession and driving under the influence. After breaking up with his girlfriend, Madison Parker, he went on the medical TV show The Doctors he tested positive for opiates and entered rehab emaciated, addicted and broken.

Now he's putting on weight and says that he's got a whole new lease on life. Will this last, or will he go into a downward spiral as soon as his latest boyfriend or girlfriend breaks up with him? He's looking healthy and talking about focusing on himself before diving into another relationship. We're rooting for Aaron to pull through.

4 Nick Cannon's Music Career Is Under The Radar

Nick Cannon organized the All That reunion in 2016 and he seems to have a hand in everything Nickelodeon does, but did you know that he's also an accomplished musician? In an interview with HighSnobiety, he says that he doesn't want to mention his many musical collaborations when he's doing announcer work for Nickelodeon because it would feel too much like bragging. Not to mention the lack of overlap between fans of Nick Channel comedy shows and the hip-hop, rap and R&B music that he writes and promotes. He's content to be well-known within the music community (and to quietly write soundtracks and create beats for almost every movie and TV show he's worked with). He's as good at bringing musical talent together as he is at finding good comedians, with finds in recent years including breakout stars like H.E.R. and Khelani.

3 Lori Beth Denberg Became A Minister

We would never have guessed that Lori Beth Denberg, known on All That for delivering lines like  "It's important not to blow your nose on your sister's pants!", would become a member of the clergy. Yet today she's an ordained minister who may even officiate at your own wedding (if you ask her nicely.) Why did she become a minister? Apparently, one of her friends was lacking a wedding officiant and she stepped in.

She's even offered via Twitter to do the honors at Perez Hilton's wedding, though it doesn't seem like he's getting married anytime soon. Will Lori become the next big word in celebrity weddings or will she be called on exclusively by 90s kids looking to add a touch of nostalgia to the big day? It's… probably going to be the latter.

2 Mark Saul Was On Grey's Anatomy

He may not be McDreamy or McSteamy, but on Grey's Anatomy, Mark Saul is certainly… McStevey. Well, he plays a guy whose name is Steve. An actor as hilarious and over the top as Mark Saul proved to be on All That can't be expected to confine himself to a medical drama for his entire career, but other than a brief appearance on Parks and Recreation it looks like he's done with the comedy industry. He spends his spare time making paper art and knitting fake cacti to sell on Etsy. Doesn't sound like too bad of a life, though we can't help but wonder what could have been if he'd been given his own Stuart show after All That was canceled. Maybe it's for the best in the end. That crazy school photographer skit was too long even for a five-minute short.

1 Giovonnie Samuels: What Is With The All That Cast And Terrible Horror Movies?

Okay, we really need to address the problem with All That and low-budget horror movies. Her most recent film involves releasing a space monster from a crashed Soviet space shuttle and has a whopping 4.5 out of 10 stars on IMDb. After doing All That and working on the critically acclaimed Freedom Writers, why would Giovonnie have to stoop to something like Harbinger Down? At least Giovonnie had a few projects other than appearing in really awful horror movies like Chelsea Brummet and Kyle Sullivan did.

Can some good director gather up these three All That alums and at least put them in a decent thriller? We feel like it's an insult to all 90s kids to be casting our idols in these actively terrible movies. Also, Giovonnie, please tell us if Kyle and Chelsea are out there.
