LOS ANGELES — Kenan Thompson kicked off the 74th Emmy Awards with a musical number that brought together dozens of dancers, metal guitar players and a walk through television’s past.
The television industry‘s biggest night began with the “Saturday Night Live” and “Kenan” star chronicling some of TV’s most iconic theme songs through dance.
“We’ve always been able to sing to them, but we’ve never been able to dance to them. Until now,” Thompson said of the “legally cleared” theme songs.
