List of episodes

Many changes to the show happened before the start of the season started. This was the only season recorded at Paramount Pictures after moving from Nickelodeon Studios, but before moving to Nickelodeon on Sunset. Original cast member Angelique Bates did not return to the show after her contract had expired. The producers hired Amanda Bynes to fill the void in the cast. This would also be the final season for Katrina Johnson and Alisa Reyes, with Johnson leaving midway through this season. The producers hired Tricia Dickson as a cast member for the later half of the season. However she was put into featured status and mostly played supporting roles during her short time on the show.

During the summer, the film Good Burger was released. It was All That's only feature film to be made based on the sketch of the same name. The movie grossed more than $20 million, but received generally negative reviews from critics. Mitchell and Thompson were the main stars of the film, while Denberg and Server had supporting roles in the film. Mitchell, Denberg, and Server reprised their roles from the Good Burger sketch in the film.

The intro remains the same as the first two seasons. However all of the Bates parts are edited out and are replaced with Bynes. New group shots of the entire cast were taped as well.

This was the first season to air on The N back in 2008, and it was the second season to air on The '90s Are All That on August 22, 2011.^{[needs update]}

This season was taped from July 1996 to February 1997.
