The '90s Are All That is a programming block that airs on TeenNick. The block shows requested Nickelodeon shows from the 1990s, airing in a two-hour block running Monday through Friday nights from 12 am to 2 am, with an encore 2 to 4 am.[2][1] The block derives its name and logo from All That, a popular sketch comedy series that ran on Nickelodeon from 1994 to 2005.

The creation of the block, which debuted the night of July 25, 2011 (early July 26), was inspired by a large amount of interest in classic Nickelodeon series by users of social media outlets such as Facebook.[3] Response to the debut was very positive; hash tags pertaining to the block became trending topics on Twitter[4] and the Nielsen Ratings for TeenNick on the debut night increased to between eight and 60 times the ratings TeenNick received in previous weeks, beating numerous higher-profile basic cable programs in the same time slot.[5]

Some of the animated programming that is scheduled to be included in the block in the future was, at the time of the block's launch, already airing in overnight marathons on sister network Nicktoons, a practice that began in summer 2010. The Nicktoons marathons continued alongside The '90s Are All That through August 2011, but have since been removed from the schedule.

Beginning October 7th, 2011, Stick Stickly, who hosted the Nick in the Afternoon block during the mid-90's will return to host the block on Friday night. The Friday night block will revive "U-Pick" from the afternoon block, allowing viewers to vote online to decide which shows they want to see. Stickly often pops out at certain times when a program is airing.
