Then: Gabriel Iglesias was 24-years-old when he joined 'All That' for its sixth season. Prior to that, he was a struggling comedian, and the show marked his first big break.
What better way to tell somebody you love them than with the words of the great people of Pawnee? 'Parks and Rec' very generously shared these Valentine's Day greeting cards on their Pinterest, and we think they're swell. Tell somebody that you don't hate them, or even adore them, and if it gets weird just say "Hey, I'm sorry, I thought you LIKED that show." And then never talk to them again. Happy Valentine's Day!!
Then: Lori Beth Denberg had been performing in community theater and school plays since the age of six, but it wasn't until she was 18 that she landed her first professional gig, on Nickelodeon's 'All That.' She was a cast member on the show for four years, most memorably as the tell-it-like-it-is host of 'Vital Information.'
If you look at the internet at all, you've probably noticed a sudden proliferation of Harlem Shake videos. Why, you might be asking, are all these people wearing horse head masks and throwing themselves around shabby dorm rooms? It's a fair question, and one we'd like to answer for you. This is your essential guide to the Harlem Shake.
There's something special about Florida. Not the Keys or the Everglades. Really it's the propensity for weird news that gets us. Strange things are always happening down there. If you're familiar with the bizarre state, @_FloridaMan on Twitter will delight you.

The news of Pope Benedict's resignation has got us feeling like it's 1415 all over again. HEY-O! Seriously, this is the first time a Pope has stepped down it nearly 600 years, so it's pretty big news
Congratulations are in order for Ellen DeGeneres after last night's Grammys. She didn't win an award, but she did do something possibly better -- say what we were all thinking about Katy Perry's boobs. With her face. On camera. Take a look.
To quote a friend, "1980s Steve Guttenberg: If Bill Murray can't do it, Gutt's your man." Let's take a moment to reflect on everyone's favorite '80s nice guy. A man who was described by Playgirl as "Cute, Cuddly (And Single!)." A man who needs no introduction, but if you do need an introduction you should probably watch this embarrassing video. A man who looks great in a silver wetsuit. Steve Guttenberg. The man, the myth, the star of 'Police Academy,' 'Short Circuit,' '3 Men and a Baby' and pretty much every movie that mattered between the years of 1982 to 1991. Need more proof? Get your Gutt on below.
We aren't sure what the best part of this video is. Is it when the monkey tries to eat the bird's head? Is it when the turtle bites the puppy's tongue? Is it when we got to write those two sentences because of this video? It's hard to say
That Harlem Shake thing is really catching on. We hope it's the next 'Gangnam Style,' although that's mostly because these videos are only 30 seconds long. This version of the Harlem Shake features actual firemen in a fire truck. The thing we're left wondering though is
