Paramount+ and Nickelodeon Studios have whipped up a tasty treat for fans of the iconic ’90s feature film Good Burger. The first trailer for Good Burger 2 has been released, and it promises to serve up a hilarious and nostalgic experience. The sequel follows the original characters, Dexter Reed (Kenan Thompson) and cashier Ed (Kel Mitchell), as they reunite at the fast-food restaurant Good Burger with a fresh batch of employees. Good Burger 2 is set to premiere exclusively on Paramount+ later this year.
The Return of a ’90s Classic
The original Good Burger sketch first aired on All That in 1994 and quickly became a beloved comedy staple. The feature film was released in 1997, and Kel Mitchell reprised his role as Ed in the All That revival series in 2019.

“I can’t believe it’s been a little over 25 years since great customer service was born at Good Burger! Being a part of something so many generations of people have come to love has made me so proud and now to be back where it all began working on the sequel is surreal! Love performing with my brother Kel and can’t wait to show the fans what these characters have been up to since we last saw them.”
-Kenan Thompson, Star and Producer of ‘Good Burger 2-
“Ed is one of those timeless characters that has brought so much joy and laughter to fans, and it’s such a beautiful blessing to still be doing it after all these years. It’s super awesome to come back and continue the stories of Dex, Ed and Good Burger for both the people who grew up watching and their kids.”
