Drake Bell isn't a fan of Nickelodeon's All That revival. The original cast member took to his Instagram Story on Thursday (May 30) to blast the reboot's first trailer. The one-minute-long preview was shared on Twitter, showing the new cast singing and dancing in front of some of the original cast members, including Lori Beth Denberg, Josh Server and Kel Mitchell.
After checking out the teaser, the 32-year-old mocked the young cast, which consists of kids between the ages of 12 and 15. This is LITERALLY THE WORST THING IVE SEEN IN a loooong time!!!” Drake wrote. “I’m confused is this written or is this their ‘IMPROV’ he rhymes Joking with Joking like four times…”
He added a second Instagram Story reading: “you should probably wait until the audience says your funny before saying ‘I’m Funny.'"
Drake then shared a photo of the original cast, saying the next generation of All That is "not even close."
While Drake clearly isn't a fan of the revival (even though it hasn't even premiered yet), other original cast members have been raving about it. Kel, along with Kenan Thompson, serves as executive producer on this version of All That.
“For us to see the new kids going through what we went through and experiencing the beginning and know what’s to come for them — it’s so cool to see their faces experiencing it all,” Kel told People. “I’m excited that I’m there to give advice. God made me ready for this.”
All That will premiere June 15 at 8:30 p.m. ET on Nickelodeon. Will you be tuning in?
