Keenan will probably take over the show when Lorne Michaels leaves

Its Kenan Thompson at 3 million a year. Saved you the unnecessary 4 minutes.

The current contract stipulations are insane

I never thought about this but Keenan really kind of has it made. He makes as much as movie stars but doesn’t have to travel and do all the work that goes into making films

Not sure how Jost can afford to support a family with that salary? 😝

This begs the questions, when Lorne retires, does Keenan take over? Because this feels very much like it’s in the cards for future SNL

Do you think Keenan will take the reins one day?

$120k / year for unknown newcomers is a ton of money.

Having grown up watching Keenan on All That! and Keenan and Kel, it's always great to see he's, like, the one Nickelodeon kid to really break through the glass ceiling of child tv actor

Kenan deserves it, he got swindled for all his money in his pre SNL career. Kenan and Kel, Goodburger, All That, he barely got any of it. He should be paid more imo

Kenan is definitely taking over after Lorne

I love that about Keenan. I feel like he doesn’t get as much love and recognition when it comes to people talking about SNL performers, but he’s in so many great sketches.

I mean Kenan has been doing things like SNL longer than some of the cast has been alive so that makes sense. lol

Could you do a deep dive on In Living Color or MADTV? I love your story telling!

Keenan certainly deserves it. Everyone has watched him grow and become a pillar of SNL

$156K a year in NYC isn’t a lot of $ but it’s more than livable especially as a person with no kids
