Kenan and Kel accidentally bench Ron Harper of the Chicago Bulls. Just for fun, we see how Harper slipping in some orange soda might have affected the Bull's 1996/1997 season!

Look, it's not my fault Chicago has two famous sports teams with plural five-letter animal names that start with B.
And two teams named after bears!
Don't believe his lies. I called the city of Chicago, and they confirmed that the UA-camr PopArena was solely responsible for naming the city's professional sports teams
ngl I thought you did that on purpose as a little bit of a joke since you don't come off with the "sports guy aura"
At any given time, we like to pretend that at least one of them doesn't exist.
By any chance can you tell UA-cam not to tack ads for transphobic propaganda onto your videos? I reported one a few hours ago, but don't know yet if it worked.
Even watching a dozen years ago this screamed “WE CAN’T AFFORD JORDAN OR PIPPEN!” or really any of the team’s actual major contributors
Never thought I wanted a crash course on 90s basketball history until right now. Love how creative these Sample Platters get to be.
Ah, you gotta love it when a sitcom does an episode with a “famous” celebrity and most of the audience has no idea who that person is. At least Ron Harper is more well known than somebody like Misty Mae-Treanor when she did her Wizards of Waverly Place episode.
And yeah, they likely wanted a bigger name, but that was a fun hypothetical & a neat way to try and see how the Bulls would’ve faired had Kerr been forced to start.
To this day, when I see an orange soda , I always say to myself " I do, I do, I doooooo".
As an NBA nerd, this video had me smiling straight through!
It really was like a NickKnacksxDorktown crossover I never knew I wanted! Great idea for this one.
I don't think it's a surprise that professional wrestlers seem to have the best track record when it comes to acting career transitions, since that's as much a performance art as it is a sport. Once you can do the "soap opera with piledrivers" bit, you can probably at least handle an action role here and there, and it probably helps to switch to something slightly less taxing on the body.
I wish they'd made a Kenan and Kel movie instead of Good Burger 2
I did not expect to hear about hypothetical AU playoffs from 1997 :P
I think the plural is LeBrons Jame
"Some of you heterosexuals can come up with a better system"
That made me laugh, as a gay who knows nothing about basketball
I'm straight and I know practically nothing about it. And don't lie, you played basketball during P.E.
I think this is the first time I remember Greg saying anything about his sexuality. Though I mostly watch the Nick Knack videos instead of Animorphs or any of his other videos, so maybe I just missed references there.
I'm a bisexual who went to basketball camp for several summers in a row, and even I'll admit that my knowledge on the 90s-era Chicago Bulls largely extends to the big guys like Jordan & Rodman
@@samrtnr97 I, your friendly neighborhood enby, grew up with the 90s Bulls teams dominating ESPN and I really could only remember Jordan, Rodman, Pippen, and Kerr, who is most fresh in my mind as the Warriors coach for the mid 2010s championship runs (and last year’s title). So it was nice to see my hometown coach get a nod from Greg here.
@@EmperorSethThat's just like saying you didn't know John Waters sexuality because he doesn't bring that up on all his movies.
While I'm not normally a fan of kids/tweens/family sitcoms on cable, I'd say the cast really elevates the material, especially the two stars of the series. Even today, I find Kenan to be the SNL MVP. They don't have "What's up with That?" on the show nearly as much as they should. I got to give the Good Burger movies a watch at some point.
At this point Kenan is literally the only SNL cast member that Gen-Z grew up with - basically people like the Lonely Island, Kristen Wiig, Fred Armesien, et al - who is still on the show today. Hell, even Pete Davidson is gone and outside of Kenan, literally *everyone* else in the cast is a rando to me. Doesn't look good on them at all
@@bullmonty764 The cast of that show has always been a revolving door. Not everyone can have a long tenure like Kenan has or even Bobby Moynihan had up until a few seasons ago. Kenan has been a sketch comedy regular since he was a kid, after all. That's a LOT of experience, and no wonder he's such a consummate professional.
"dollar store Jon Bois!"😂
If the NFL team the Chicago Bears won the NBA championship, that would be quite surprising
It would be more impressive if the Cubs won.
they’re so good they transcend sports
Just kidding the Bears are abysmal
😿
Did not come here for extended baseketball statistics.
But god dammit I stayed for them
Dollar store Jon Bois segment was pretty alright. You worked with what ya had and it all made sense. Fun episode!
It only needed a "well this shouldn't be too WHAT THE FU"
As a kid, I didn't know jack about basketball. So I remember watching this episode and being like "Well, I guess this guy's a big deal, if they say so?" 😆
Kenan and Kel are legends
I loved 90s shows like these, and there was a lot of drama mixed with comedy which this episode did so well.
Kenan & Kel will always hold a special place in my heart.
Pro wrestlers also count as great actors: Dwayne Johnson, John Cena, Dave Batista, Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and Roddy Piper.
Jesse Ventura too
Adam Copeland as well.
Boy, this sure went down a rabbit hole I was not expecting.
its absolutely wild seeing basketball reference on Nick Knacks
This is a fun excuse for a silly video. I love it.
This sample platter gives me an idea. Get an umbrella, a beaver, and a boomerang, and meet me at the all-you-can-eat buffet! C'mon, Danny Boy!
There is some hardcore sports fans out there. People will be sure be mad at Kenan and Kel.
GODS the wait to get to this show drags. This and All That were soooo deep in my childhood you have no idea.
I was a big Bulls fan as a kid. I stuck with the team during Michael Jordan's first retirement, I remember his comeback year loss in the playoffs to the Pacers where Jordan kicked Reggie Miller, then ditched 45 to unretire 23 the next season and Jordan was extremely emotional upon winning the championship. I remember Pippen, Rodman, Horace Grant, Toni Kukoc who played for Croatia instead of the US for the Olympics, and Steve Kerr. And yet I have zero memory of Rob Harper.
Beating the Steve Bartman incident to the punch, 6 years early!
Other reviewers: "I don't care about sports, but I'm going to review this sports-related thing and make the whole thing about how I don't know anything about sports."
Greg: "I don't care about sports, but I'm going to do the research so I can have an understanding of exactly what I'm talking about."
I don't remember watching this episode, but it appears to be the Kenan & Kel equivalent of the "Quest for Kendall's Autograph" episode of My Brother and Me, where Kendall Gill guest-starred. Gill had played for the Charlotte Hornets in 2 different stints, but the episode taped and aired in between those two stints. In his time in Charlotte, he was likely a little higher on the notability list on the team than Ron Harper was on the Bulls (I guess Gill would have been 4th or 5th on that list, depending on where you put Dell Curry).
Me encantó este episodio. Febrero de 2024 y aquí estoy riendome con esta joya. Jajaja
This should have been a topic on "The Last Dance" doc
Come on, Ron Harper was an important piece on winning three out of the six championships the Bulls won during their golden years. Having said that, I never liked that episode that much, it kinda felt like a meaner Bill Clinton episode.
I'm not into sports at all, but I enjoyed your geeky deep dive into the hypothetical. 😁
Speaking as a nominal heterosexual, I don't know shit about basketball and cannot, in fact, correct your math. :P
Here we go. Does it sound like the coast is clear? I don't think I can hold them off much longer. Oh, what's the point? Rigby's is doomed.
Did not expect to be watching a D&D actual play this week.
5:05 You said the Chicago "Bears" instead of the "Bulls".
They ain't there to start no trouble, they're just there to do the NBA Finals Shuffle!
Bears Bulls Battlestar Galactica
@@DirtiestDMusic you win for this exquisite crossover reference
Bears, Bulls, people from Connecticut...
As a heterosexual, I genuinely forget Ron Harper was on that Bulls team. He was a good player, especially early in his career with the Cavs and Clippers, but yeah, he was mostly a journeyman role player at that point, so you're analysis of how critical he would've been on the team is probably somewhat accurate.
What happened to Kenan and Kel in this episode having the city of Chicago turn on them happened in real life 6 years to Steve Bartman.
I thought it was funny when you called the people who would comment critically about your math simulation and "understanding of basketball" as heterosexuals. I, for one, think you did a great job of making your point and went above and beyond to provide evidence.
As a basketball fan in the 90s I always found it weird/funny how big a deal a Ron Harper injury was within the universe- being front page news and all that. Don't get me wrong, he was good in his prime, but by the time he was with the Bulls he was a role player- that was well past his prime.
Don't get me wrong- they wouldn't have WANTED to lose him, but he really wasn't even one of the 5 most important players on the team, even including defense. Bare minimum Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, Kukoc, Longley were all more important. Maybe Kerr too.
You can always trust sports media to blow everything out of proportion.
oh THAT explains the sports simulation stuff I saw over on twitter. neat to see how that would've shook out IRL, gotta give you that. (even if I'm not super into sports) Personally I never really watched this show but yeah kinda feel like maybe I missed out.
I wonder if Scottie Pippen was both available and affordable for this episode. Anyway, Ron Harper may not be the biggest contributor to Bulls championship, but he was a decent piece, and sports can make people behave irrationally.
I mean to be fair the Chicago Bulls insane in the 90s guarantee 40% of the US population at least heard of Ron Harper but yeah I like your analogy Ron Harper would stink to lose but the 90s Bulls more than had the depth to make up for Harper being out and yeah, Harper probably was the biggest player they could get for this role because there’s no way Jordan Pippin or Rodman would do it. He was probably the most recognizable Bull Aside from the big three
Couldn’t care less about basketball, but I’ll always be down for some prime Kenan and Kel
Ron Harper is excellent in this great episode. 😀👍🏀
Good show
Jon Bois better watch his ass
Anything on Stick Stickley?
I see you are a fan of Secret Base too
What is this Hoop voodo?
Loved the Kenan and Ken stuff but the sports stuff is yuck.
Serious question: why is the sports stuff yuck?
Sports stuff feels super monotonous unless you're into it.@@chelmrtz
@@GR8FLMD3AD you can say that about anything you’re not interested in. The polite thing to do is let others enjoy it.
