Kenan

I just don't get it. Kenan is funny. Whoever is writing this mess is like trying to make him not as funny. The lines are terrible. Don Johnson is not a comedic actor. Chris Redd is trying too hard and so is the lady who plays Tamika. The kids are just not adding anything to the plot or the comedic factor. I don't know what happened here, but it's a no for me.

Love Thompson and Redd on SNL, so maybe I was expecting more. One of the few shows I've seen that would benefit from a laugh track. It's just not that funny. Plus, I can't stand shows when children talk like 40 year old tv writers.

Someone wrote a review about the laugh track. I'm guessing they didn't watch the show because there is no laugh track lol

The show is okay. I love Kenan and even Chris Redd, so naturally I'm already set up to laugh. If you don't like Kenan or SNL, then absolutely you will hate the show.

Yes this formula has been done a thousand times, and someone in another review pointed out its similarities to The Unicorn, which is also true (recently widowed father raising two girls). There are some differences obviously but I do enjoy The Unicorn too.

The banter between Kenan and Chris Redd & Don Johnson does provide a few laughs and Kenan's daughters make for some decent laughs.

Give it a try. I mean, we went through 2020 and 1.5 of 2021 so far - things have been worse lol

The pilot is not a good representation of this show. Keep watching. It improves with each episode. Kenan Thompson is a talented comedian and has a great rapport with Don Johnson.

At first I wasn't sure what to make it of it because ifs been a while since I've seen a heartfelt funny family show and I just didn't expect it. It's hilarious and it's a sweet show about grief. Slow down and give it a chance, it's actually really good. Happy for Kenyan, I've heard him on interviews and he's a really humble down to earth guy, good for him.
