Barely know them? How 'bout have no idea who they are! But I like diet orange soda every once in a while.
I have kids. They were smaller kids in the 90s. And their favorite thing to do was to check the same three movies out of the library every week.
I watched Good Burger 422 times.
Now, I have a well-developed Anglophilic sense of humor. Beyond The Fringe, My Word, Rowan Atkinson … classy stuff.
But I cracked up at Kenan and Kel’s delivery of massively silly lines … every one of those 422 times.
“I ordered a Good Burger with nothing on it, and all I got was this bun!” “Is meat Something or Nothing?” “Something?” “I win!”
“Do I know you from somewhere?” “Ohhh! Maybe I’m someone famous, y’know, like a baseball player or an attractive nurse!”
Oh, I should post this before I get hundreds of dopers demanding the answer:
#2: The Rocketeer 417 viewings
#3: The Goonies 387 viewings
Luckily, movies 4-25 included lots of Miyazaki, Disney, Spielberg … and Gromit.
This was also my situation. Except the other movies I had to watch a gazillion times were Surf Ninja, The Three Ninjas and Ninja Turtles (also The Power Rangers but that didn’t fit the theme.)
Lori Beth was a lot older than the rest of the kids on that show. She also appeared on the Steve Harvey Show. Another Kel credit: Mystery Men. He played a super hero who could turn invisible but only when no one was looking at him.
From the title I thought “Kenan and Kel” was a brand of orange soda. I guess this thread isn’t actually about soda. Oh well.
Aw. Can’t win for losing, twickster
Ah, yes, “The Three Ninjas” was in high rotation, too. But it had some wonderfully stupid bad guys, who we still quote: “Slurpee?” “Duuude!”
Ah… Nostalgia.
I loved Surf Ninjas, 3 Ninjas, and TMNT, as well as Keenan & Kel- took me a while to appreciate Goodburger- it’s funnier now than as a kid when I saw it.
I always hoped Kel woulda showed up on an SNL skit, but alas.
I think the above title would have worked (with the quotes).
