Manifesto

The term "you doing too much" is a grammatically incorrect phrase used to identify a person, place or thing, that is doing exactly that; the act of “doing too much” or more then they can handle. These actions can be simple as someone dressed inappropriately to political views.

All That - The Inconvenience Store



This is a skit from the show All That which was on Nickelodeon. This particular episode aired on the 5th season of the show. The overly exaggerated skit was meant to be funny but wasn’t. I know other comedians like Martin Lawrence and Jamie Foxx have done similar sketches, but this is doing entirely too much especially on this particular network. I really don’t know the target audience for this show but one has to wonder with it being on Nickelodeon.

Nick Cannon is more than Mariah Carey’s husband. Cannon began his acting career at Nickelodeon at a young age. Now as an adult, Cannon is the host of America’s Got Talent, produced the successful show Wild N’ Out, starred and wrote in a few movies, serves as a radio personality, and finally Cannon moonlights as a comedian. Many of you may not know but Nick Cannon is Chairman of TeenNick and the development and creative consultant for the Nickelodeon.

The other gentleman in the skit is Kenan Thompson. He is also a byproduct of Nickelodeon. Thompson joined the cast of Saturday Night Live in 2003.

    I think the target audience for this show was pre-teen. I agree the skit was a bit "too much" for that age group. When stereotypes are played out by kids to other kids it "bugs" me. Thanks for digging this one up.
