Christopher Magsambol — October 1, 2015 — Pop Culture
The classic duo of Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell from 90s hit movie 'Good Burger' had a surprise reunion on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The sketch began with a fictional Jimmy Fallon working with Ed (Mitchell) in the iconic fake restaurant Good Burger.
Mitchell's sudden appearance took the crowd by storm as he reprized his role as Ed, a quirky fast food cashier. The crowd erupted once again when Thompson emerged as the familiar angry Lester Oaks, Construction Worker. The sketch had appearances from Tonight Show regulars Steve Higgins and Black Thought.
The reunion meant to promote the stars' new, upcoming TV shows. This season, Thompson continues his role on Saturday Night Live and Mitchell returns to Nickelodeon, the network that made the duo famous.
