[@MrTPain]

Coco Dikadikadunkerson's 😂🤣

[@TheDrew718]

The April 13, 2024 skit with Ryan Gosling...Bevis and Butthead was pretty funny. Technically, it wasn't Keenan who made them break, but it was so funny the whole cast broke, except the extras.

[@sammomsta]

YESSSSSS

[@elgigante6838]

The James Harrison sketch after the Steelers won the Super Bowl 😂

[@jaydouglas1090]

The fact there is no “What’s up with that” or Black Jeopardy on this list is criminal.

[@XaraK1]

I can see the one WUWT where Sam Jackson says a bad word and cracked everyone up so that could apply, but I can't remember a BJ sketch where he made them break, altho I stand corrected

[@SnazzyjazzBro]

I don't recall either of this segments where the he broke the cast.

[@baileyangelinekrueger9787]

OoooooooooOOoooOoohhhweeeeeeeeee what up with that? What up with thaaaaat?!

[@Rob774]

You are missing the point. Its not about the funniest. Its about the cast breaking.

[@willieanderson8570]

Uncomfortable silence....

[@TheSmitty1960]

Black Jeopardy with the late Chadwick Bozeman

[@vlz30177]

❤I agree they should have had Black Jeopardy I’ve watch the one with the late Chadwick Boseman, but my favorite it the one with Tom Hanks as a hillbilly and he one I was laughing so hard my cheeks hurt. 🙏🏾🥰🙏🏾🥰🙏🏾

[@thereallg4587]

*The black panther one was just hilarious.*

[@angelapalmer3464]

The scared straight sketch with Betty White is priceless!

[@MayEstavon]

I grew up watching him on All That, am glad he continues on SNL

[@Brawndo2008]

If I'm remembering correctly, he was the taxi driver on All That that would yell, "KUMQUAT!!!" at anyone who pissed him off lol

[@Chetloore]

I can't believe there aren't more sketch shows. A lot of SNL alumni go off and make it big and do a bunch of movies, but in all honesty I prefer watching them and sketches. It's really weird but besides watching bugs Bunny I watched a lot of Saturday night live with my dad growing up.

[@Mergatroid_Skittle]

This dude just doesn’t age

[@truevergil6983]

Brah. It’s crazy.

[@Feledwards]

Ready to find Goodburger on one of my 20 streaming services

[@monty-g4i]

Really? He doesn’t? DUDE?

[@monty-g4i]

He’s a hack. Good for him for having success. You can’t take that away from him, but he’s a hack in the industry.

[@pathaha4870]

Black don’t crack

[@lisas6740]

Big Papi and the Steve Harvey always get me.

[@XaraK1]

Kenan's presence on SNL never gets old for me. I actually dread the day he leaves. His skits with Leslie as husband and wife were always particular faves 😂

[@rndmpinkiepie64]

Honestly, he's probably one of the top 10 cast members of SNL history. I love him ❤

[@victorperrote6028]

This man is amazing, making us smile all the time

[@linervamontalvo5281]

He's been funny since childhood from the mighty ducks, heavyweights, all that and his own comedy sketch show with kel. he's gifted with comedy

[@ericrosenburg657]

He is top 10 SNL performer. I decided that watching “Sumpin Clause”.

[@tawshisms]

EEEERBODY GETTIN SUMNN!!!! such a classic 😂

[@TheNewKidChameleon]

Most consistent SNL member

[@ALLtheABOVEable]

Sorry MsMojo you talk too much. Just let the video play please. 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@marlonreid5201]

Wayyyyy ro much

[@americanskeptic1559]

Thanks for the heads up... saved me from listening to her scream thru the mega phone

[@avapountney]

Here, here, less is more.

[@MrChikoSticks]

Yeah, you suck bro!

[@techsoulja1262]

Yup, Just needs to SHUTTY ! Geesh it's so annoying.

[@JamesDavis-sh9gh]

All of the scared straight skits are rolling on the floor funny

[@sonablom]

The Betty white one is the best. Rip funny lady.

[@mattlatakas7051]

Ive loved Kenan ever since he was on All That! So happy to see that he's made it to SNL😊

[@ReynaReactsandReviews]

He’s hilarious 😂

[@jc9822n]

Made this list 2 weeks too early. Keenan keeping a straight face during the Beavis and Butthead skit was amazing

[@nataliebowen8924]

Hilarious 😂

[@jeffreytripp-v3w]

Kenan is the glue

[@Toddie_Royal]

I loved the Cosby one with Seth Myers... Love Kenan!

[@egpmh2891]

There is one you missed where he plays the host of show called "What's Up With That" he has the cast cracking up with it

[@salvatoredebella4502]

Kenan Thompson may be one of the funniest people to ever live. He was even funny on the childrens shows in the 1990's.

[@Okrollins1]

At first I thought he was doing Chicago Mayor Lightfoot.😂😂😂

[@ariellebotwinick1537]

I love “Diner Lobster.” It’s so ridiculous.

[@Jblaze2k9]

Those "Lavar Ball" skits were hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@tarlobond]

Big Papi and Lavar Ball are undefeated

[@OceanbornAngel]

Kenan used to make me laugh when he was a kid on All That! on Nickelodeon.

[@盧璘壽로인수]

now I'm wondering if he knew anything else...

[@OceanbornAngel]

@@盧璘壽로인수That is a good question.

[@COMPFUNK2]

Kenan always puts his all into every sketch, even if the sketch sucks.

[@TheyStillCallMeRicky]

Kenan is the GOAT

[@freddysevolution9]

He will always be known for his Knuckle Puck.

[@CarysLibri]

Awww 🥰

[@KrisHornett_]

Stick gloves and shirt

[@kenya9549]

Lol 🤣 I remember when impersonated Emilio Estevez.

[@SpeedyEric1]

Is this what you want?! Hmm?! A former Nickelodeon star becoming an SNL legend?! Cause this here’s real!

[@Cobralalalala]

I had never seen the Lavar Ball bit before. "Gateway to Gastonia" killed me! 😂😂😂

[@rhondah.1478]

To be fair, Colin Yost and Michael Che can't even get through their segment without laughing at themselves. But Kenan is hilarious! And how do you not have Black Jeopardy on this list?

[@kennyhagan5781]

He's the old man of the cast now,and I love that he seems happy as can be doing the show. My favorite sketch with him in it was when he and Betty White did SCARED STRAIGHT. The man is gold in my opinion.

[@FirstnameLastname-nq3oj]

Been a Stan since effing ‘96 ❤

[@jasonbean2764]

Kenan just shows up and I break.:)

[@dc1397]

What's Up With That is my favorite skit of all reoccurring skits in SNL.

[@roskill3]

He is hilarious!!! I would love to see him and Jim Carey in a sketch!

[@user-gq2yv2bs8g]

You guys forgot the O.J Simpson skit. And the R.kelly skit

[@calcham1]

The Scared Straight skit with Betty White, was also an all-time great one.

[@callen8908]

Kenan is a brilliant cast member and I love his performances

[@gregbanter3022]

This cast will never ever be as good as the original Saturday Night Live

[@amilcareschettini5881]

That man is a legend 😂😅❤

[@mattb9664]

Probably worth noting there are two versions of these more modern skits- the dress rehearsal recorded for KZbin and then the actual live version. There lobster skit was really good example of where you really needed to see the live show, which I did, along with the replay show- there were mistakes in both versions that really made the skit so much more funny. It's difficult to find the live versions on KZbin unless it's a fan recording it then reloading it.

[@lonnielyle]

I went to the same High school as Kenan. S/o to Tri-Cities high school. Brah forever funny

[@paddy7812]

I’m waiting for some more “Sump’n Clause”!!

[@mimi022089]

Everyone saying “What’s up With That” & “Black Jeopardy” I believe Kenan is the only person to really break character in that lol

[@SMyers-uh4du]

WE LOVE KEENAN HE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!🎉❤🎉

[@dreamluchadore]

Kenan will eventually replace Loren as executive producer of SNL.

[@SirRayDonavan]

Bruhhhhhh that last one bout took me out!!😂😂😂

[@fleon7316]

Him as R. Kelly is my favorite

[@HappyCrone]

“Late night brain storming sessions “ means, really high. 😂

[@mrbushidon7]

Big papi - "A smidgen of pigeon" had me ☠️

[@dachshundsrule21]

How did the one on the carnival ride with Woody Harrelston get left out the list?!!

[@XristosKarasavvas]

KENAN IS the funniest one in all those SNL years by far from the next, he takes crappy skits and makes them actually FUNNY

[@contactdigestpodcast1530]

Keenan doing math(posters) with Pete was good too.

[@rhettcujo9006]

To be fair Lesly Jones always broke character. I miss her on SNL.

[@margaretthym8234]

When I watched All That, I always knew he was the biggest star on the early run. When I was old enough for SNL I always knew he was make it there someday and look at him now ... the longest lasting cast member in the history of the show!

[@venessa2110]

The Steve Harvey reading😂😂😂

[@kevinpoole6122]

GOAT!

[@marquiswoolford6859]

Him as Steve Harvey saying “pho bias” is wild AF!!!

[@pamelabrown234]

I love kenan thompson he is so funny i hope he dont leave snl no time soon he is the only reason why i watch snl

[@Jacayrie]

I remember him being on "All That". He and Kel was so funny together.

[@bluebear1985]

There was one time where Keenan appeared as LaVar Ball on "Inside the NBA". In that case, that crew (Charles Barkley, Kenny "The Jet" Smith, Shaquille O'Neal, and Ernie Johnson) did their segment from Studio 8H because Charles Barkley was about to host SNL for the fourth time.

[@IamLegendaryguy1998]

It’s not Saturday until Miss Mojo post Saturday Night Live videos

[@speculore5268]

The fact that the Chef Show sketch is not on here is ridiculous. That one made me laugh until I was out of breath.

[@dasher920]

How did the village people get ranked at number nine?

[@mikeillgaming4224]

The dance teacher that turns into a werewolf

[@chiefjoes.wiggumindonutswe5662]

"Blaxxx Baller Brand!" 😂

[@johnguillen68]

He is so talented.

[@GamerFunOriginallyAarush]

Hilarious!

[@Jem2Jerica]

Dj Dynasty Handbag was one of his best skits

[@1212LeoSnake]

Hershel Walker did it for me also Scared Straight with Betty White🤣🤣

[@eastmaggie]

Kenan is SNL royalty

[@MsSoniahenry]

He's one of the young greats totally a star

[@Lovesinneedoflove]

Scared Straight Church Lady & Black Jeapordy are my only all time favez that had me watching rather than Madd TV

[@destonlee2838]

Scared straight. Cause when I went through thar program I couldn't stop laughing mdamself.

[@emilynorris4263]

The Les Mis lobster skit was peak

[@sightnsound5]

The R. Kelly one is good

[@jaybrdoubleez]

The big baller chocolate sneaker and the face he made as the magician took me

[@dnice287]

How on earth did you not include "What's up with that" and the DeWitt guy?!

[@royseaberg2214]

Mojo kind of ruined the skits by talking over them. Maybe talk before or after the skit. I don’t mind a slightly longer video if I can watch the whole skits. I don’t even mind the mojo commentary on the skits but it’s annoying mojo talked over the skits ruining the skit. However that dude is a legend and highly underrated.

[@XTREM1213]

What's up with that. The best

[@a.lawrence4969]

Dinner Lobster is fantastic!

[@shawnweaver7797]

what up with that . kills me

[@ToniMcGinty]

Jean K Jean! ZUT ALORRRR! INCRAYABLAY!!!

[@subuguru3]

Wish I had a Ms mute button for Ms mojo so I could Ms watch the skits.

[@leandrosena_]

cmon, what up with that is not in the list is a crime hahahaha

[@Ponokyo]

My favorite is his R. Kelly skit.

[@tgodmarley28]

It would have been better if we could hear more of the skits vs all the over explaining 😂

[@lealmelisa]

Love Keenan❤❤❤

[@samuelcollantes1175]

In my case it'll be the Black Panther new scene. Happy saturday, Jen. Take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well.

[@PoofOfLogic]

Wow, MsMojo can strip the humor out of anything....

[@shawnstarr8122]

The dude's been funny since the 90's

[@kingdavidjames1778]

Commentary f***ed it up 😎

[@Al-rs2rr]

As an old guy and a fan of SNL from the beginning people are always saying modern SNL isn't as good as the old ones. Perhaps the writing isn't as good bud Kenan is as talented and funny as any of the originals and better than most. Chevy Chase and Bill Murray weren't half as funny or had perfect timing like Kenan They had one thing Kenan doesn't seem to have. Gigantic bloated egos.

[@garrettburton5331]

The best one was the gayle king and r Kelly sketch

[@takeoverusa]

Kenan Thompson as Colorado head coach Prime Sanders

[@artistburns170]

Nah black jeopardy is the best one
