Kenan and Kel

Today's first post is a sitcom about two friends who end up involved in hare-brained schemes that always spell trouble!


The show was set in Chicago, and centered on the antics of two mischievous teenagers, Kenan Rockmore  and Kel Kimble. Kenan is a high school student with a job at a local grocery store, while Kel is his clumsy, orange soda-loving best friend.
Episodes of the series always opened and closed with Kenan and Kel breaking the fourth wall by interacting with the studio audience, standing in front of a red curtain that is placed in front of the main set, while still in character. A frequent running gag of the openings would be Kel never knowing what the night's episode would be about and Kenan refusing to tell him.
The closings would frequently feature Kenan coming up with a new scheme – often asking Kel to get various assorted items and meet him somewhere. Frazzled, Kel would exclaim his catchphrase, "Aww, here it goes!" and Kenan exclaim his catchphrase "Why??"
