I was able to sit down with the creator of “Kenan and Kel” Kim Bass as he went over his fantastic career in the television sitcom world.
He got the bug to be in the television and film industry very young. He was seven years old when his grandfather took him to his first movie and he thought that he would find a way to figure it all out. Moreover, “Kenan and Kel” was based on Bass’ relationship with his best friend Tyrone and his other show “Sister, Sister” was based on his twin sisters. He was also involved with a sketch comedy show called “In Living Color”.
In 2022, Bass had a film called “Tyson’s Run” and it began streaming on Netflix outside of the U.S. and it will begin streaming in the U.S. on Netflix on February 28, 2024 and has performed well globally, becoming the top 8 film on Netflix.
His other film “A Snowy Day in Oakland” began streaming recently on Starz, as well.
Obviously, Bass has been very busy with his work and doesn’t seem to be showing signs of slowing down as he will be shooting his next film entitled “A Lawyer, The Devil, Three Priests and a Nun” next spring.
