Kenan Rockmore

Kenan Rockmore is one of the six main characters and the first of the two titular characters of Kenan & Kel. He was portrayed by Kenan Thompson.

Character
He is Kel's best friend, as well as Roger and Sheryl's son and Kyra's older brother. He is usually the mastermind to Kenan and Kel's schemes.

Some of his schemes are in hopes of gaining something in his favor, such as in Pilot, when he wanted to buy a car against his parents' wishes, The Honeymoon's Over, when he gets himself and Kel "married" so that he can win a game show that offers houses as prizes to gain some privacy, and Duh Bomb, when he organizes a night club at Rigby's Grocery Store.

Other schemes are in an attempt to fix Kel's mess, such as in Turkey Day, when he and Kel look for another Turkey for Thanksgiving Day after Kel ate the first one, The Raffle, when Kenan rigs the raffle to make Kel win (the TV used for the raffle was his parents' new one since Kel destroyed the initial TV for the raffle), Mo' Sweater Blues, when he attempts to clean Brianna's sweater without her knowledge after Kel stained it with orange soda, and Picture Imperfect, when he tried to get his schoolmates' yearbook photos taken, with Bill Bellamy standing next to them, in order to fix the mess Kel made by damaging the yearbook photos.

Most of his schemes always end on a bad note and that often gets him and Kel in trouble. However, there are times when he almost gets away with his schemes, until something bad happens at the end. For example, in Attack of the Bug Men, after getting their household properties robbed, Kenan successfully stalls his family at the restaurant they were eating while the police retrieve the stolen property. As soon as the police retrieve the property, Kenan sends Kel to restore the property in the house, however, instead of restoring the Rockmores' property, Kel places property that he thought was "cool".

Kenan is also shown to be a troublemaker on numerous occasions. In the episode The Graduates, he was caught splatting chocolate pudding in Principal Horn's office as a prank to leave a mark in their school history, but this resulted in him being banned from attending his graduation ceremony.

However, there are a few occasions when Kenan doesn't get into trouble at all. Get the Kel Outta Here is a notable episode in which Kenan didn't get into trouble at all.
