The eleventh and final season of the Nickelodeon sketch-comedy series All That aired from June 15, 2019 to December 17, 2020.[1] This season marked the first time that the show, created by Brian Robbins (the current president of Nickelodeon) and Mike Tollin, had aired new episodes since 2005.[2]
Kevin Kay, Rebecca Drysdale, Jermaine Fowler, series co-creator Mike Tollin, and former cast members Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell all returned for the revival as executive producers, while the duo of Kevin Kopelow and Heath Seifert, who previously served as executive producers and wrote many recurring sketches during the original run, served as consulting producers and returned as writers.[3] In addition to Kopelow and Seifert, the writing staff for the revival also consisted of Tim Barnes, Joey Manderino, Steven Borzachillo, Liz Magee, and the duo of Monica Sherer and Madeline Whitby. The directing staff consisted of Jonathan Judge, Trevor Kirschner, Phill Lewis, Eric Dean Seaton, Robbie Countryman, Sandra Restrepo, and Lynda Tarryk. Like the first 10 seasons, this season was shot before a live audience.[4]
The revival featured an entirely new cast, consisting of Nathan Janak, Kate Godfrey, Lex Lumpkin, Chinguun Sergelen, Reece Caddell, Ryan Alessi, Gabrielle Nevaeh Green, and Aria Brooks. Brooks joined midway through the season, making her debut in the season's 15th episode on January 18, 2020. This run also featured the involvement of former cast members appearing regularly with the new cast in sketches. Numerous classic characters and sketches, such as Good Burger, the "Loud Librarian", and "Detective Dan", were revived for the new season. In addition to Mitchell and Thompson, Lori Beth Denberg, Josh Server, Alisa Reyes, Mark Saul, Jamie Lynn Spears, and Lisa Foiles also returned.
