In 1997, Leon Frierson, Christy Knowings, and Danny Tamberelli joined the cast of All That to replace the departing Katrina Johnson and Alisa Reyes. Leon's agent had called him about the job and he auditioned at the Nickelodeon/MTV building in Los Angeles. He did impressions of "an old man, nerds, Jim Carrey and Mike Tyson."

Leon's recurring sketches and/or characters include Have a Nice Day with Leroy & Fuzz, CJ and the Cloudy Nights, Repairboy (with Kel Mitchell as Repairman), and Billy Fuco.[2] He stayed on the show until the end of Season 6 in 2000. He also appeared, during his run on All That, as a panelist on the Nickelodeon game show Figure It Out.
