was anything but amateur. “It is I, the mayor of television, Kenan Thompson,” the 44-year-old comedian and six-time Emmy nominee began the 74th Emmy Awards to a buzzing crowd at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. “TV is all we have,” he then declared, “from Netflix and chill to Paramount+ and eating dinner alone.”

He then quipped: “Eh, you all ever see? I really think you’d like it,” a nod to the similarities between both ’90s-era sitcoms. He then appeared in a box in thefamily theme song and even introduced a cameo from the cast of the original series.
