How Steve Harvey Really Feels About Kenan Thompson's SNL Impersonation

In March, Kenan Thompson made history when he appeared in his 1,500th "Saturday Night Live" sketch, according to BuzzFeed. Thompson first joined the long-running show in 2003 after a successful stint on Nickelodeon, which included starring roles in "All That," "Kenan & Kel," and "Good Burger." During Thompson's "SNL" tenure, he's portrayed a variety of characters, including parody versions of Suge Knight, Samuel L. Jackson, and even Donald Trump. And even though "SNL" fans differ when it comes to their favorite Thompson sketch, his recurrent portrayal of Steve Harvey, who hosts "Family Feud" and "Celebrity Family Feud," is definitely one of the comedian's most talked about performances. "Kenan Thompson as Steve Harvey on 'Family Feud' is comedy gold on legs," tweeted lifestyle expert John Basedow. Writer C.J. Toledano once declared, via Twitter, "I would fund a Kenan as Steve Harvey SNL movie."

Although many of the stars who've been roasted by "SNL" have loved it, that isn't always the case. Over the years, many famous faces, including Donald Trump and Carole Baskin, have decried "SNL's" depiction of themselves, which often exaggerate their mannerisms and quirks (via E! News). Given Thompson's spirited take on Harvey's likeness and his unique approach to hosting "Family Feud," no one could really blame him if he were a bit salty about the impersonation. However, Harvey's stance is a bit more layered than that.
