'Put Me On Blast': Kenan Thompson On 'SNL' And His New, Self-Titled Sitcom

'Kenan Thompson says playing a widowed dad on his new NBC sitcom Kenan and being a dad in real life has been "a bit of a whirlwind." "I'm living my character kind of 24/7 in a weird way," he says. "I wake up and make breakfast for my kids and then I go do a scene where I'm making some sort of meal for my TV children, too."It doesn't help that the show is named after him. Calling the show Kenan, wasn't his idea, but he also didn't object: "I was like, 'Yeah, sure. You know, if that's how you guys are feeling, like, let's go. Put me on blast. I'm all about it,'" Thompson tells Fresh Air.'
