"It means everything to me," Thompson told Variety. "It was my first job that I ever had. It gave me an opportunity."

Other past cast members are also expected on the show, alongside a new cast. The show is part of an effort by new Nickelodeon President Brian Robbins to renew interest in the network from younger kids.

"The new weekly sketch-comedy series will showcase an all-new cast of kids, with cast members through the years making special appearances during the season," a press release said.

This will be the second time “All That” has made a return to the network. After launching the careers of Thompson, Kel Mitchell, Nick Cannon and Amanda Bynes in its first iteration from 1994 to 2000, it relaunched for season 7 with an all-new cast, airing from 2002 to 2005.

The news is just the latest in what is shaping up to be a busy 2019 for Thompson. In addition to remaining on "SNL" as the longest-running cast member, Thompson's single-camera comedy, "Saving Kenan," has been picked up by NBC. He will also be a judge on the network's new comedy competition series, "Bring the Funny."

“All That” is set to premiere on Nickelodeon this summer.
