The 'What's up with that?' sketches are THE BEST SNL sketches ever made. I laugh my damn ass off, and they just make me happy. They're pure joy! Thank you, Kenan! You're the best!
@@stabishop1769 You are allowed to dislike things, yes. But you're a dick for calling people shallow and mindless for liking things you don't, O Asshole One.
Kenan Thompson is such a talented professional that I have to ask....Can one ever get enough of him? Thanks for all the laughs you've given me and please keep them coming! 💯🙃👍
Dang! Lol You really don't think any of his skits are funny? I personally don't love all SNL, but Kenan makes me chuckle or laugh.@NPClownumber81googolplex
@NaturalBrownCupcake i grew up watching all that and kenan & kel but you can't get woke and be funny at the same time... Name an snl skit you thought was funny and I'll give you my honest opinion but ngl most likely I'll say cringe
DONALD J TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT AND LET'S MAKE AMERICA GREATER THAN ITS EVER BEEN BEFORE EVEN GREATER THAN THE FIRST TIME TRUMP WAS THE PRESIDENT!!!!!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Charles Barkley is by far my favorite tv personality. His delivery is always funny but he don't tell no lies. That skit was hilarious and Keenan is a classic and the two combined is classic comedy!!!
Keenan is a genuine legend! I can’t even narrow he is best sketches down to one. All of Black Jeopardy and the parole hearing for the Texas Man-gobbler maybe 😂😂😂
Kenan Thompson adds, heart and dignity to many of the sketches of SNL. This is something that is often missing for the sake of laughs or ridiculing others. And yup, Black Jeopardy is priceless, with Thompson having the best comedic timing.
I was very happy when I first heard that Kenan Thompson was joining the cast of SNL. Having watched him on Nickelodeon with my kids. Well, really with my daughter. I was amazed when I found out he had been on SNL 15 years, and now it’s more than 20.and he always brings it. He seems like a good guy. Very happy for his success.
It’s been TWENTY ONE YEARS!?!?! That blows my mind. And Kenan is… *checks Wiki*… 45 years old?!? What the heck?! 😂 I’ve been watching this man since “All That”. I can’t believe he’s been on SNL for 21 years and that he’s 45. His forever youthful appearance somehow had me thinking he was still in his 30s.
Charles' first time on SNL he did a promo with Nirvana - "Look mom, your favorite . . . Nirvana!' And a great skit where he roughed up Barney the dinosaur one on one. It's on UA-cam if you search
@@stabishop1769 It was on Kurt's list of things he wanted to accomplish, just like the Weird Al parody and MTV playing their videos. Don't believe the myth he never wanted to be a rock star. Find the promo and look at the faces he is making, he was loving it
Sounds like pretzel logic, SNL hasn't been relevant in a long time, aside from Weekend update I avoid watching it. As the song goes, oh well whatever nevermind. Sadly there won't be another band like that any time soon
Kenan is the epitome of smart, ultra-talented, self-aware, laid back and cordial. Did you guys watch how many times they cut Kenan off mid-response? A Thanos-leaning person like myself would've inserted HOLD DA HECK UP, I WAS TALKING! Yet, Kenan just rolled with the flow, nice and smooth and always respectful. I wish him continued success and Blessings!!!!
Keenan is spectacular at what he does. He has never been about offending people that he imitates. He is a prime example of great clean comedy. You don’t have to cuss to be funny. It takes more skill to be funny without profanity👍🏽
Gail here's another note listen a little better it looks terrible when an interviewer says something wrong that was corrected earlier in the interview he truly shows you're not listening and you're just waiting for him to shut up so you can ask the next question
Agree completely, she feels the need to interject every two seconds with something nonsensical, and kept interrupting to talk about the photos being shown when everyone can see them and they do not warrant a voice over, and then when Kenan was about to tell his Dad's joke, she cuts him off, she came across like a newbie in television. Kenan seems like a lovely guy.
Charles Barkley finds the best version of himself in the most unusual place - Saturday Night Live. That, of course, comes from veteran comedian, Kenan Thompson who just did a spot on the Chuckster. The fake Sir Charles was a guest on King Charles this week and he was a little nervous for no reason. But Barkley proved he can take a joke on himself. It’s not only spending Thursdays with prankster Shaq that’s made him thick-skinned. Chuck’s SNL appearance was enough to gain an appreciation for Thompson’s art. “We’re not out to offend,” Thompson said as a disclaimer though he acted scared of the Phoenix Suns legend. Gayle King assured Barkley has never been mad at his impression of him. Gayle King even had Thompson dish how he nails Chuck every time. “Some people strike you funny… you have a very specific tone,” Kenan said before slipping into his Chuck persona easily. “It’s just down in here, you know? It’s just a very Southern baritonal, ‘I’m a very tall person, so that’s how I talk.'” Barkley was so awed discovering his impressionable manner of speech, he immediately said, “It’s a tremendous compliment.” Clearly, he lives by the ‘imitation is the best form of flattery’ principle. And he also knows how tough the sketch comedy business is.
Back in his younger days he was outside at waffle house by the St. Louis airport enjoying a waffle. I remember it well. He was even cool and humble then 👍🏾🔥💪🏾💯
hahahah hilarious. Love Gayle and Sir Charles! Ok CNN maybe it's me but sounds like the audio is panned to the left instead of centered. Just looking out for you folks. 🙏🏼
I remember hearing about the first time Barkley had hosted after Keenan was there and Barkley showed up and said “Okay, where’s Keenan?” And Keenan said “oh no “
They need to make an exception and ask Keenan to host while he's still a cast member. It can be done; they've brought a lot of past hosts and cast members back for cameos this season.
As a child of the 70's/80's, with the exception of a few shows or years, here and there, I always thought SNL was somewhat corny, compared to shows like "In Living Color" and comedy shows/skits on HBO/Cinemax/Showtime, but SNL is and has been a "CAN'T MISS" primarily due to the exceptional talent of Kenan Thompson!
You know what ? this King Charles show is bloody good Charles is a sportsman legend and Gayle is a long time reporter journalist. Its clear Gayle loves having a big black handsome man with manners and intelligence as her co-host. Their interview with Neil degrasse Tyson was a hoot of a show with Neil laughing out loud at both Gayles and Charles questions lol
What a humble talented gentleman. I love his works... tremendously.
Wow, 21 years on SNL!!! That is unbelievably impressive. Most people don't last a few years. He is in almost every sketch. He carries that show now.
He definitely is talented, I’m appreciative of him sharing his jokes with us.
Kenan IS TALENTED.❤
That's almost 50
He's been head writer since Seth left too
@@YouMakeItHappen Stop cappin. He only has two writing credits -- one episode of "Kenan & Kel," and his recent memoir that was published.
The 'What's up with that?' sketches are THE BEST SNL sketches ever made. I laugh my damn ass off, and they just make me happy. They're pure joy! Thank you, Kenan! You're the best!
WORD!!!!!! 👏🏻
BLACK JEAPORDY With Tom Hanks will always make me laugh to tears!

@@stabishop1769 You are allowed to dislike things, yes. But you're a dick for calling people shallow and mindless for liking things you don't, O Asshole One.
Definitely one of the very funniest skits of the entire SNL run...
To this DAY! That episode has me rollin.
Tom Hanks killed it. When he was scared when Kenan came too close 😂
Kenan Thompson is such a talented professional that I have to ask....Can one ever get enough of him? Thanks for all the laughs you've given me and please keep them coming! 💯🙃👍
Charles Barkley is a national treasure! ...and so is Kenan! 😃☮
For Black men who love white women more than they should lol
What ?! He’s an idiot
I love Kenan Thompson, been watching him ever since I was a kid!💯💯🙏🏿🔥✊🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Kenan is such a nice guy. And very talented. I wish him the best.
I still can't believe he's been on SNL this long. Feels like a few years. Hope he stays many more years.
Me too
That's where all unfunny people belong 😂
He’s not going anywhere

Whenever I need a good laugh I watch Black Jeopardy. Its so funny.
Tom Hanks and Chadwick were the ultimate!!
@@stabishop1769 shut up
“Not a damn thing!” Tom Hanks in character on Black Jeopardy when asked: [What can a women with no butt do for you?]
We love that Kenna Thompson is on S&L.. his parts are always top notch!
The last SNL Charles Barkley hosted was one of the funniest ones. Every skit was so funny.
I am literally growing up watching Keenan on all my favorite shows lol. He just seems like a lifelong friend at this point haha
Watched Kenan as a kid on TV with my kids and I always liked his sunny disposition. And Charles is a longtime hero of mine.
Kenan Thompson adds, heart and dignity to many of the sketches of SNL. This is something that is often missing for the sake of laughs or ridiculing others. And yup, Black Jeopardy is priceless, with Thompson having the best comedic timing.
I love Kenan and Charles. Kenan still looks like he is twelve. Charles is very easy to impersonate; he's a character.
Keenan has a blessed gift and I am thankful for him sharing that with us each Saturday night!
Chadwick Boseman on Black Jeopardy was hilarious and I rewatch it to smile through the tears for him.
Aw, hell na Karen! Keep your bland ass potato salad to yourself!
Kenan is who holds the show together nowadays every sketch I see him in I start laughing because I know he's going to be funny
She should have asked him. About Him doing R Kelly and her. That was so funny. Spot on funny.
Kenan will be one of the greatest actors ever, I know it.
He might be in the category of Denzel and Daniel Day Lewis alike one day. Comedy is harder therefore he's mentally ready
I was very happy when I first heard that Kenan Thompson was joining the cast of SNL. Having watched him on Nickelodeon with my kids. Well, really with my daughter.

KENAN!!!! My favorite cast member on SNL I never miss an episode because of you. Thank you for still being there with your brilliance.
Kenan basically is SNL
Now, I see where he gets his greatness from. His dad! He is blessed and his family too. Great stuff!!
The man is tremendously chill like he said, you wouldn't believe he does his skits that well on SNL
Kenan is the best !
He always delivers on SNL. He truly is talented.

The RKelly and Gayle King interview .. done by Kenan and Leslie SNL skit 😂😂😂😂
So glad he is still on SNL.Charles should host again..also a pro comedian

Barney was hilarious
My favorite Kenan skit will always and forever be, "What's up with that."
Kenan is a legend! He's one of a kind. 😊
Kenan seems like such a nice guy!!!
I wish him long life doing comedy.
I love Kenan!! Such a smart, talented entertainer!
I'm so proud of Keenan!! He literally is one of my favorites in entertainment, and he seems like the guy next door💜
She asked the same question twice 😅😂
I’m 61. Back in the days , my son that is 30 now, made watch Good Burger 200 times. Kkk . My boy was a big fan.
Charles Barkley has way too much self esteem to be offended by jokes. I love his genuine personality.
Kenan is getting popular by the day!

I thought I was the only one who caught that. It was at least 7. But who's counting.
Keenan you ain't fooling me. You were in character on that Gayle interview. 😆
Gail here's a note when the guess is speaking don't speak over them to make your point wait till they finish then make your point
She does this constantly in every interview. It’s so rude and unprofessional and she doesn’t learn.
SNL is how I found out how hilarious Charles is 😅
21 years? I remember the first show I saw him, God! Times fly when you are having fun
Keenan is spectacular at what he does. He has never been about offending people that he imitates. He is a prime example of great clean comedy. You don’t have to cuss to be funny. It takes more skill to be funny without profanity👍🏽
Kenan Thompson is stellar❤❤❤ SNL ❤❤❤
The most hillarious SNL actor. My family loves watching you in SERBIA. We love YOU! 😂🥰🥰🥰😚
OMG Charles hair in the prison scene is hilarious, and the goatee and beard on the panel scene. Lol. That’s so funny, I love Charles. And Keenan.
Kenan prob the main reason I still watch SNL
Kenan IS TALENTED!❤

She does this in every interview. So annoying.
How do they not show the rkelly clip with Leslie as Gail……legendary
so happy he's had such a great career, definitely deserves it, grew up watching all that :)
Love all those years. I sing Moekiki all the time.

Such a likable guy!
Love Kenan T.
Great interview Charles…you too Gayle.
Love Kenan
LOVE Kenan.
Awwww Little Kenan Thompson is Cute
AMAZING TALENT❣️
I look at Keenan and I think of,"Whattup With That, Steve Harvey, and a million other brilliant characters.....
That's pretty positive. I like the intelligence level that Kenan and Barkley were talking on and sharing about the work experience at SNL.
Back in his younger days he was outside at waffle house by the St. Louis airport enjoying a waffle. I remember it well. He was even cool and humble then 👍🏾🔥💪🏾💯
hahahah hilarious. Love Gayle and Sir Charles! Ok CNN maybe it's me but sounds like the audio is panned to the left instead of centered. Just looking out for you folks. 🙏🏼
I grew up watching Kenan when he was on All That
kenan is 45 and doesnt look his age, which shows that comedy and laughter is good for the soul and keeps you looking young.
❤Kenan😂
Kenan you're the best! Thank you for ALL the laughs!
CHARLES BARKLEY IS ALWAYZ BEIN' 🤡 CLOWNED 😂😅😅
Kenans Barkley is hilarious
I remember hearing about the first time Barkley had hosted after Keenan was there and Barkley showed up and said
“Okay, where’s Keenan?”
And Keenan said “oh no “
Barkley playing golf - hilarious.
Time to do another scared straight skit Charles ❤❤❤
He honestly is just a real talent
They need to make an exception and ask Keenan to host while he's still a cast member. It can be done; they've brought a lot of past hosts and cast members back for cameos this season.
He never ages
21 years!!! Please somebody hire this dude.
His career at SNL can legally drink
I love Kenan!
And still Kenan doesn't age, damn
Kenan...🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Kennan is the GOAT
LMAO That joke was TERRIBLE!!! That Was a Norm McDonald level groaner. Loved it.
4:30 Dana Carvey’s impressions are so brilliant because he DOES highly exaggerate.
No one ever asked him to the one question I want them to asked him. How much longer will you be on the show or how long do you want stay??
Barkley hosted and was amazing
I think Keenan Thompson is right about Charles' mannerisms and tone...but I also think he's subconsciously mimicking Muhammed Ali a little bit. Lol.
Wouldn’t be same without Keenan ❤ he’s the BEST
