Kenan and Kel reunited for a spot-on 'Good Burger' sketch
The patron saint of nostalgia heard the prayers of every former SNICK watcher, and made something amazing happen: A "Good Burger" reunion.
On Wednesday's Tonight Show, Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell performed together for the first time in years, bringing to life some of their most iconic characters from the time they were comedic partners in crime (all the way back in the 1990s). Mitchell once again donned his striped shirt and pointy hat to become Ed, the most clueless fast food employee to ever work at Good Burger (or any chain, for that matter). After serving a string of customers, he was finally face to face with Thompson, who resurrected Lester Oaks, Construction Worker. It was a fun, silly segment that shared the same vibe as the original Good Burger sketches, and admit it: You totally shouted "Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger, can I take your order?" right along with Ed.
