There are times when it feels like Kenan Thompson has always been on “Saturday Night Live.” The actor and comedian is the longest-tenured cast member in the sketch show’s celebrated history, having joined the series in 2003 after a successful run on shows like Nickelodeon’s “All That” and “Kenan & Kel,” in addition to a fan-favorite role in the popular “Mighty Ducks” trilogy. Although he’s been nominated twice for the Best Comedy Supporting Actor Emmy for the show, he’s lost both times, first to Henry Winkler for “Barry” in 2018 and then Dan Levy for “Schitt’s Creek” last year. As Thompson is the only actor from 2020’s supporting comedy race who could possibly return this year, and following speculation that this might have been his final season on “Saturday Night Live,” we have to ask: Could this finally be Thompson’s year?
