Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell, the stars of Nickelodeon’s Good Burger films and ’90s sitcom Kenan & Kel, are set to reteam as producers and stars of Kenan & Kel Meet Frankenstein, a horror comedy co-produced by Thompson’s Artists for Artists and Range Media Partners, which will shoot this summer.

Inspired by the classic Abbott and Costello monster films, Kenan & Kel Meet Frankenstein follows two delivery drivers whose routine drop-off takes a terrifying turn when they arrive at a creepy, out-of-place castle and accidentally awaken Frankenstein’s monster — turning an ordinary night into a fight for survival.

I still haven’t gotten around to seeing Good Burger 2.

Anyway I was sure they’d revive the tv show or at least do a movie about what they’re doing now. I prefer that honestly.

Interesting they’re going with a haunted house theme again. Two Heads are Better Than None was a similar idea.

I never watched the original Good Burger, nor the sequel. But I loved them in All That and Kenan & Kel. They had good chemistry, watching clips I sitll think it works for what they were going for.

I know Good Burger 2 god bad reviews but I'm sure people reviewing it were being harsh, their comedy was always stupid, slapstick, etc. Basic Nickelodeon humor so I wouldn't expect that to get praised but that doesn't mean they aren't delivering.
Clearly here the target audience has to be mostly nostalgic adults, I doubt kids care about 50 year olds doing comedy for them.

I think Kenan and Kel (the show) still holds up...although Kel became a bit flanderized as it went on.

All That does not imo. Even for a Nick-SNL style show. There’s some characters/sketches that are still funny but the rest is just dumb. The revivals were really bad.

I still check out Nick and Disney Channel live action shows. Some are decent actually. I would definitely been into them if I was a kid.
