In the very first episode of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell from Kenan & Kel and Good Burger 2 will be contending for the top prize. Adding them are John Mulaney & Nick Kroll of Oh, Hello on Broadway.
This is also evident in the duo format of the show as the pairs are friends in real life who have strong and long-term friendships.

The pair have known each other since childhood and have both traveled their paths alone alongside joining forces for various projects in the past; Mitchell stated, “We’ve known each other since we were kids. We both had our journeys and journeys together. It’s a friendship that has been [able to last] over a test of time, which is super awesome,” he said.
