Kianna Underwood, who appeared on the final season of Nickelodeon’s All That, has died following a hit-and-run accident in Brooklyn early Friday morning. She was 33.
Multiple media outlets identified Underwood as the victim after a sedan struck her while she was crossing the street just before 7 a.m. near Pitkin Avenue and Mother Gaston Boulevard in the Brownsville neighborhood.
According to TMZ, the vehicle dragged her for nearly two blocks before fleeing the scene. The NYPD confirmed that a female victim was pronounced dead at the scene. No arrests have been made.
Underwood appeared in seven episodes of All That in 2005, during the sketch comedy show’s final season, alongside stars like Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon, and Kenan Thompson. She was also a familiar voice to Nickelodeon audiences as Fuchsia Glover, the cousin of the title character on Little Bill, appearing in 23 episodes of the animated series between 1999 and 2004.
All That aired on Nickelodeon from 1994 to 2005 and featured comedy sketches and musical performances geared toward younger viewers, helping launch the careers of several future stars.
Little Bill, based on the children’s book series, followed a five-year-old navigating everyday life through an imaginative lens.
Born in New York City, Underwood also appeared in Nancy Savoca’s 1999 indie comedy The 24-Hour Woman, which starred Rosie Perez, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, and Patti LuPone.
She later provided voice work for the animated TV movie Santa, Baby, and went on to tour with the musical Hairspray.
