Salute Your Shorts and the Christine Taylor featured Hey Dude stood out to me more and had a longer syndicated run into the late 90s' despite being like 26 episodes each.
I read up on it after I read your post Wildcat, it seems the guys just went there separate ways. Maybe Kel is bitter for Kenan getting picked and him not and thus Kenan will have ongoing success while he just got a few bit parts. Its a shame. I admit I always preferred Kenan even as a kid, but I hoped for more for Kel since he is a nice guy and a hard worker.
It is kind of funny what Nicktoons were able to get away with in Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life with bits and pieces and others shows while other networks had some restraint on them. Like how comedic elements chock held TMNT in particularly 1990-1992(seasons 4-6) while most of this was airing.

Well I don't think Kel is bitter. He seems more disappointed they drifted apart.
I loved Salute your Shorts and Hey Dude. The cast of both have made recent appearances at conventions. There's interviews and a sort of reunion of Hey Dude from last year. Should be on YouTube but you could just Google it.
I live like a few hours from where Hey Dude was filmed. There's a youtube video showing the set still exists out in the desert but the buildings are broken down. Its cool but sad to see it a mess.
