Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson Reunite for ‘Good Sports’: New Prime Video Series Set to Redefine Sports Comedy

Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson, two of the most influential figures in American comedy, have officially confirmed a powerhouse partnership that is set to shake up the streaming landscape. The duo will headline “Good Sports,” a new Prime Video original series premiering on November 25, 2025, bringing a fresh, unfiltered, and hilarious perspective to the world of sports culture.

The Reunion the Internet Demanded

Following their explosive chemistry during the 2024 Paris Olympics Highlights show on Peacock—where their “no-holds-barred” commentary went globally viral—Amazon moved quickly to secure the talent. “Good Sports” promises to be more than just a standard roundtable show; the production will blend scripted sketches, high-level improv, and celebrity interviews, all filtered through the unique comedic lens of Hart and Thompson.

According to the official press release dropping today, the series will feature weekly episodes releasing every Tuesday, kicking off with an initial 12-episode run. The show is a joint venture between HartBeat (Hart’s media company) and Artists for Artists (Thompson’s production banner), signaling a major investment in both creative and technical quality.

“What we did at the Olympics was wild, but this? This is next level,” said Kenan Thompson, currently the longest-serving cast member in Saturday Night Live history. “Good Sports is just us being us—cracking jokes and probably pulling muscles we didn’t even know we had.”

What to Expect from ‘Good Sports’

The premise moves beyond box scores and stats. The show targets “sports culture” writ large. Hart and Thompson won’t just be breaking down the NFL or NBA playoffs; they will bring humor to relatable situations, from youth league brawls and pickup basketball etiquette to the often irrational behavior of die-hard fans.

• “Unfiltered” Commentary: Live-to-tape reactions to the week’s most bizarre moments in global sports.

• A-List Interviews: A lineup mixing elite athletes with Hollywood stars who think they can play.

• Field Segments: The duo will leave their studio—reportedly based at the historic Culver Studios in Los Angeles—to attempt unlikely physical challenges.

Amazon’s Play for the Sports-Entertainment Throne

The launch of “Good Sports” is not an isolated move. Prime Video has been aggressively expanding its footprint in live sports, anchored by its exclusive rights to Thursday Night Football. By pairing live games with high-profile adjacent entertainment like this, Amazon aims to keep viewers on the platform long after the final whistle.

Kevin Hart, whose media empire is valued in the hundreds of millions, sees the partnership as a natural evolution. “Kenan and I are bringing our own playbook to ‘Good Sports,’ and it’s a guaranteed win,” stated the comedian. For Amazon, uniting the box-office juggernaut with TV’s most reliable sketch comic is a strategic masterstroke to capture both comedy nerds and sports fanatics.

Where and When to Watch:

• Premiere: November 25, 2025.

• Platform: Exclusive on Prime Video.

Viewers can expect a mix of SportsCenter energy with the controlled chaos of a stand-up special, solidifying “Good Sports” as one of the most anticipated releases of the holiday season.
