Didn't he create Kenan & Kel and basically give Kenan Thompson a career while Kel Mitchell got totally shafted?

Because let's be honest, Kel was the heart of that show.

They both auditioned for SNL, but only Keenan got accepted

Kenan is the one you see. You stare at him; and he just stares right back.
Kel is the one who strikes from the side. You never see it coming.

Is this a fat joke? I feel like it's a fat joke.

I don't have a dog in the fight, but Kenan is funny and one of maybe two reasons the show is watchable right now.

During the destruction of All That, Kenan emerged from the wreckage with his career unscathed, while Kel found his acting bones rendered "brittle as glass"--a cosmic counterbalance to Kenan's success.

Amanda Bynes is James McAvoy's character.

Kel Mitchell is now a music producer for a small label, or at least that's what I remember him saying from a podcast clip, probably Joe Rogan. So that might not actually be true but I want to believe he's still living a good life in showbiz so I will.

Steve Harvey Says Kenan Thompson "Owes Him 5 Percent"

quote:

But when asked if the estimated "5 percent" was due to Thompson's success impersonating him, Harvey was adamant that that wasn't the case.

"No. Everybody says that but no. Kenan owes me that money because, years ago, Kenan asked me for a small loan. I told him I'd give him the money and I wouldn't even charge interest on it. He says, okay great. So I give him the loan and next thing I know, he goes out and buys a PT Cruiser and a Double Beef N Cheddar from Arby's. Doesn't even invest it or anything.

"So at this point, I'm upset. I didn't tell him he had to use the money for anything specific, but I didn't think he'd go and waste it on a sandwich either. So I said, 'okay Kenan, let's move past this--I want to move past this. You're obviously in a bad way right now and can't pay me back, but let's figure something out.' So we ended up agreeing that he'd pay me 5% of the money he made in 2018 (which was three years after the money was loaned).

"I haven't seen dime one of that repayment. I know he knows. Kenan: You owe me that money. If I see you buying another Classic Beef N Cheddar or French Dip, I'm coming down on you hard. You owe me that three grand, brother."

To clarify, $3,000 would be 5% of $60,000.

My poor math only slightly clarifies I'm pretty sure

$60,000 in NYC means you live in a barrel, $36,000 means your night shift is fighting someone else with a knife for the entertainment of the guy who lives in the barrel
