All That's second season ran from October 7, 1995, to March 30, 1996. This season contained 21 episodes, as well as Good Burger special episode.

This season is similar to season one, starring the same cast members, having the same intro, and still being taped in Orlando, Florida. Following the conclusion of production on the third season the show moved out of Florida and moved to Nickelodeon on Sunset (formerly The Aquarius Theater) in Hollywood, California. Season 2 is also the final season for Angelique Bates, whose contract with the show was not renewed.

The producers thought that Mitchell and Thompson had good chemistry on the series together, and so from there, the duo would begin starring on their own show, Kenan & Kel. The show debuted shortly after this season ended, with Mitchell and Thompson performing on both shows and doing other promotional work with the network.

After You Can't Do That on Television ended production in 1990, Nickelodeon had interest in creating another sketch comedy series for the network. The network debuted another sketch show called Roundhouse in 1992. After the show's debut, Nickelodeon asked Mike Tollin and Brian Robbins to create a new show. The network wanted a show that was similar to Saturday Night Live, but for kids. Joe Davola, Kevin Kopelow, Dan Schneider and Heath Seifert were brought on as producers and were a major part of the writing force for the show.

Producers went on a search to finds kids to join the cast after the network green-lit the show. Angelique Bates, Lori Beth Denberg, Katrina Johnson, Kel Mitchell, Alisa Reyes, Josh Server, and Kenan Thompson were hired. Bates got a call from her agent about the show in late 1992. She auditioned by doing an impression of Steve Urkel, which she would get to do various times on the show. Denberg was discovered by producers at a drama competition; she was invited to audition and got the gig. Johnson, Mitchell, Reyes, Server, and Thompson went through a series of auditions to get on the show.
