In the meantime, fans can catch Mitchell on Nick’s new live-action gaming sitcom Gameshakers, while Thompson will resume his SNL duties starting on 3 October, in what will be the show’s 41st season.
After years apart, Kenan and Kel have finally reunited. There was no orange soda, but they did bring back the “We’re All Dudes” song with Black Thought.
Like Thompson and Mitchell, Jimmy Fallon got his start with sketch comedy and still does it a lot on The Tonight Show. Mitchell also had nothing but high praise for “The Tonight Show” crew, saying, “Jimmy and his crew did an awesome job of how they made it look”. Jimmy Fallon adores all things 90, and just behind his deep love for Saved by the Bell is a secret crush on All That and the one movie it spawned, Good Burger.
