Kenan and Kel/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Breaking the Fourth Wall: The series finale clip show in SPADES.
  • Cargo Ship: Kel loves orange soda.
  • Complete Monster: The Headless Knight from the TV movie is pretty much a parody of these types of villains.
  • Designated Hero: The titular characters, arguably, though their acts are usually balanced by karma.
  • Ear Worm: What 90's kid DIDN'T get the opening song stuck in their head from time to time?
  • Hilarious in Hindsight - When Kenan and Kel made a cameo in the Rocky and Bullwinkle movie, they made a joke about how their show wasn't gonna be canceled anytime soon after hearing about the toons' first show. Kenan and Kel was canceled three months before the Rocky and Bullwinkle movie was released.
  • Jerkass Woobie: Kenan's dad, especially in "Get the Kel Outta Here"
    • Kel also qualifies in the same episode.
  • Memetic Mutation: * sigh* Seriously, TV Tropes? Who loves orange soda?
    • Kel loves orange soda!
      • Is it true?
        • Mmm-hmmmm I do, I do, I doo-oo!
          • Seriously, go up to anyone, anyone between the ages 16 and 24 and ask them that question. If they don't reply that Kel does, run, because they're obviously some evil alien/robot replacement.
    • Don't forget the time he....dropped a screw....in the tuna!
  • The Scrappy: Due to Flanderization, Kel in later seasons.
