Undoubtedly one of the most missed and favorited teen comedy sitcoms in the 90s is Nickelodeon's "Keenan and Kel." We can see Kel Mitchell again paving on another new live-action gaming sitcom also by Nick called "Game Shakers." The said new show already premiered last Sept. 12, 2015.
Kel Mitchell who was famous for portraying the role of the same name and who totally is addicted to orange soda in the 1996 comedy sitcom will now be playing "Double G" in "Game Shakers." His role in the new TV show is a famous, successful billionaire rapper who has a gaming company. Many will see him portray the same kind of fun, full-of-energy persona in the new TV sitcom.
THR reports that "Game Shakers" was created by "All That," "Kenan & Kel," showrunner Dan Schneider. And when THR asked Mitchell about his role on the said comedy sitcom, he described it as a "big, huge superstar" and that is "mix between Diddy and Kanye."
Mitchell also said that viewers can expect to see him be in the same old humor crazy character that he has from past roles and expect him doing music and perform hip-hop songs. He also talked about the difference that the viewers can expect, saying, "But the difference is going to be in the coding, which is just a sign of the times. We didn't have that in the '90s so it's cool to have that involved in the show. And kids can actually download the games on the show in real life."
Mitchell talked about how people still comes up to him and still ask him about orange soda. When asked by THR if he will be seen in the new show drinking soda, Mitchell said, "[Laughs.] I knew that was coming! There are some jokes that will be in there about orange soda. Double G doesn't really drink orange soda but there are some jokes in there, a few jokes from some of my prior shows that we slipped in there. The older crowd will get it for sure."
Watch the second episode of "Game Shakers" on Sept. 19 on Nickelodeon.
