not only delivered a hilarious monologue during the award show but also surprised viewers by showing off his dancing skills in an unexpected opening performance.
To kick off the 74th Annual Emmy Awards on Monday evening, which took place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, the"Saturday Night Live" veteran started off by introducing the show and making some jokes about how much everyone consumes television. "From Netflix and chill, to Paramount+ and eating dinner alone," quipped Kenan, 44, who called himself the"Mayor of Television."
However, before going into a full-on monologue, Kenan danced -- yes danced -- alongside professional dancers on-stage to remixed versions of iconic television show theme songs, including"Friends,""The Brady Bunch,""Law and Order: SVU,""Stranger Things," and the"Game of Thrones" prequel,"House of the Dragon." He even had some costume changes, rocking a Targaryen blonde wig during the"Game of Thrones" dance routine.
"Some of you may know me from my NBC sitcom, 'Kenan.' Thank you very much, just not enough of you to keep it from getting canceled," joked Kenan, later adding,"Tonight's show is airing on NBC and Peacock. Now, if you're older than 50, Peacock is NBC’s streaming service. And if you’re under 20 years old, NBC is a network that used to show 'The Office.'"
