NBC sitcom about the Rock's formative years debuts 2/16. Doesn't look too bad, honestly. I look forward to the wrestling aspects. What do you think?
God knows we don’t know have enough other threads that are people talking to themselves already. But it is probably better to wait for success on making a thread for a corny sitcom and clutter other threads and better to put up the appereance we are cooler than we are by pretending to not watch something while still watching it and approaching being middle aged.Hey @Hoff over here.
This looks like dumb fun. I'll tune in when it becomes available on Peacock. Also Idk if Kenan is going to be good enough to warrant a thread tbh, @Winter Epicland. We could probably just post about it in the SNL thread unless/until it gets a Season 2.
I have no intention of watching Kenan, but I root for Kenan Thompson to succeed, so I'll record it, so that it gets the DVR numbers.
I am undecided on Young Rock.
"I am a fan but will not watch Kenan" confuzzled young Brody.What?
I feel like a Kenan led sitcom called Kenan has been in development or rumored to be happening since like 2013 or 14. That can't be a good sign. I've always liked Kenan Thompson so I'm rooting for him, but gonna pass on that and probably pass on Young Rock as well tbh since I'm already tired of the commercials for it with young Rock cutely asking for alcohol appearing before every Youtube video I watch.Clips of Kenan give me real The Tracy Morgan Show vibes. Fact that he isn't even leaving SNL to do it kind of indicates that no one really has any faith in it. He doesn't want to leave then come back awkwardly to do cameos in every other episode like Tracy in '03/'04 (or Jon Lovitz after Mom and Dad Save the World bombed)
Incidentally, a Mom and Dad Save The World TV series would be great in this block but that ship has sailed.
From what I saw, Randall Park is playing himself in the future, if that helps. I guess along with the past Rock portrayals, the Rock makes appearances as Future Rock where he is running for President. Park was cast as a journalist covering this and thought it would be funny to make his character him in the future too. Since Future Rock leaves acting for politics, he thought Future Randall should leave acting for journalism. Since he is tight with Nahnatchhka Khan, he pitched it and she agreed it would funny.I didn't know that. My interest is higher. If it was Young Randall, I'd definitely watch.
