“Gary you sound different this morning “ no YOU sound different this morning 😭 his voice has changed so much. It’s been so long since I’ve actually heard SpongeBob’s voice
You're right. Most of modern Spongebob is a bunch of loud noises and bright colors. A few years ago, I probably wouldn't have cared, but now, I can see just how much the show's changed. They need new writers ASAP.
Why do modern SpongeBob characters not even look like sea creatures anymore? These narwhals look more like rejected designs from Equestria Girls that someone stored a little too close to some radioactive waste.
@@eatatjoes6751 Nah, they're way too human looking. We've seen other types of whales in the show before that actually resemble whales, like Pearl or the orca from Ripped Pants. Whoever designed the narwhals just didn't even try.

@@CultOfMajorahe sounds like kids content creators trying too hard to sound like spongebob or some other cartoon character, while committing atrocious crimes against baby animals on camera
Poor Tom Kenny, he’s slowly turning into Julie Kavner. The point where you’ve been doing a characters voice for so long, it physically starts to destroy your vocal cords.
Part of what I enjoy about the older episodes was when they'd take simple plot concepts like delivering pizza, camping in the front yard, playing inside an empty box, selling chocolate bars, or even working at a restaurant for 24 hours a day, and they would place in a bunch of great gags to make the simple plot feel like an epic and legendary adventure. I think the problem with newer episodes is that they think making an overly whacky and insane plot concept will make the episode funnier, but it just ends up feeling awkward.
@@Elvusmiw they think that just throwing around whatever half-assed garbage they have referencing the older spongebob stuff is going to have the same effects in grown adults as the random crazy humor has on little kids, and it just...doesn't
They can. We now have AI to do all of the heavy lifting and preserve voices. SB's cast can sound like their S1 iterations indefinitely, no strain needed. (Not that I'd like to see it from _this_ studio, mind you...)
I have liked your comment at the most specific goal but I will not mention it because of the brutality of what happens after being forced and threatened to say it
At least Mickey was made back when cartoons were meant to be wacky and happy. SpongeBob is in a comedy show that once relied to dialogue and good characters.
The design of the mule just pisses me off. An aspect of Spongebob's design is that they take a sea animal to portray a land animal. Snails are cats, worms are dogs, seahorses are horses... but they just gave a mule a fin and called it a day.
It genuinely confuses me how even a kid, or any person on the planet for that matter, could get genuine enjoyment from this. This show has basically become the equivalent of TH-cam brain rot.
Sadly, I don't think modern kids are aware that there are legitimately good alternatives. They just get sat down with their iPad or the TV turned on and forgotten about by their parents. Modern parents don't like to share things with their children like previous generations did; they view the child as an inconvenience that has to raise itself and be endlessly 'entertained.'
Gary liking metal would've made a lot more sense if it was OG metal. And I don't mean "new stuff sucks!", I mean that the first metal artists were full of people that liked classical music and wondered 'What would happen if it was played on an electric guitar?" Which is why the old riffs were so complex, some of them were quite literally mozart, beethoven, or vivaldi ported over to a new instrument and given some new chords.
A lot of modern metal artists still do that too. Hell, most of the people that listen to and make metal are also fans of classical literature-it even inspires a lot of the lyrics of certain genres.
Poor Tom is just getting worse and worse with each episode. This horrid show is just wearing straight through the poor guy, like one of those conveyor belt sanders.

Honestly, I’m amazed that both Tom Kenny and Julie Kavner haven’t retired yet. I mean, their voices are iconic, but they can’t keep doing them forever. If I had to guess, it’s because the studios want to wring them dry of any last cent of money that might still be in them.
@@auditect950 Dang. First it was real feet, now it's animated feet. I know feet are normal things to have, but some of these frames are just unnecessarily nasty. I wonder if Nick will ever escape the curse.
I think there's a reason why Tom won't get an understudy. He doesn't want anyone else to be the new spongebob. It's almost as of he wants his own curse go down with him
At least if SpongeBob is recast him sounding off will make more sense. Me personally they aren't holding Tom Kenny hostage. Clearly he still very much enjoys his character and wants to continue, otherwise, he would've retired long ago. He still has passion for this character, but he can't do the voice forever, he's getting older, of course. Sometimes, there's things you just can't do forever, but if Tom Kenny wants to do the voice more, let him. This is a big part of his life.
I watched this episode a few days ago and my smile dropped when I realized they are still trying to use kamp koral characters in SpongeBob. Modern SpongeBob pls stop trying to get kamp koral in the main show 🙏🙏
I hate these Narwhal characters because they took a GRACEFUL almost mythical arctic animal, and turn it INTO a gross caricature of people from thr Appalachian mountains!
Spongebob introduced a bunch of things like how Spongebob and Sandy met and Patricks parents. Modern Spongebob and it's spinoffs decided to change all of that.
0:48 "End of Summer Daze" is the series finale to Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years (Thank God!), but why are we still making references to Kamp Koral characters when that show is technically over now? I know these episodes are produced in advance, but the timing of these releases are still really weird.
Hillenburg only wanted to make 3 seasons, so if he’d gotten his wish, the last episode would’ve been Pranks a Lot, which would’ve ended the series on a high note (not counting the movie), and they could’ve at least continued with other media like games and comics. This? … I don’t want Nickelodeon in my cable anymore.
@@shirleymaemattthews4862As a Missouri man I find it grotesque. Very anti-poor people and moral grandstanding on the uneducated. No sympathy, only ridicule for people who do not choose their circumstances and wish to stay with family. Down to mocking the culture. There needs to be understanding, not mocking!
@@fuzzybuzzy3159 I agree! Yet, these guys will HATE portraying Muslims, Jews, Blacks, or Asians (except for the anime or otaku stuff) as bad or trashy. But will be ok with mocking the Irish, Brits, Scandinavians, French people, Voodoo believers (Which is an ACTUAL African religion, being portrayed as stupid dark wizardy), and like here, (mostly Southern) rural people!
Nickelodeon: "We're diverse and love all nationalities, happy disablility, arabic, jewish, and asian American heritage month!" Also Nickelodeon: *LITTEARLY creates Spongebob characters that are ruthless parodies of a stereotypical caricature of people from The Appalachian mountains"
and its not even one character like narlene, it's the entire narwhal species! I remember when in early seasons they made fun of texas in front of sandy but she fought back and it was clear spongebob & patrick were in the wrong. Plus sandy is an actual character instead of one dimensional stereotype. Now the episodes are just "country folk = goofy"
Modern spongebob is like watching a hedgehog get hit by a truck and then getting run over again and again by every car that passes by making the corpse more and more mangled with each hit
The head’s about the only way you can tell. Not even the hair or hats, because they seem so “tropical” and country-esque that you’d think they’re not Arctic animals.
wow modern spongebob is horrifying. I'm glad I haven't ever seen past season 7. Awe is being tortured in unimaginable agony to bring us the light of knowledge. He's like the Emperor of spongebob analysis
I think the deepness *was* (originally, at least) supposed to be a correction course after Spongebob's voice got too squeaky in Season 6, but that's just me. Everything else, though? Y e a h . . . 😓
I’m actually glad that this guy, and the people I’ve seen in the comments are competent people who realize that modern SpongeBob qualifies as newer episodes from around Season 9 or 10 and up, and not “anything after the first movie.”
Yeah, happy to see seasons 4-8 aren't considered "new SpongeBob" anymore. Sure those seasons may have been the downfall of SpongeBob, but all of those episodes are 11 years or older at this point.
@@andykishorei still consider them modern spongebob as that term refers to quality, not age, so Season 4 is still "modern" because it is abysmal despite being 20 years old
I think there were a lot of fantastic episodes after the first movie, the show didn't go downhill around that point like everyone else says, Spongebob is still an funny show so any season post season 3 is overhated by people on the internet since a lot of those seasons have been great
I wanna offer my perspective, as a kid I never watched SpongeBob because my parents found it annoying. So I have Zero personal connection to the earlier seasons. So It’s not rose tinted glasses effecting my view. I only watched the show recently because I simply was out of touch with what the big deal of SpongeBob was. The first few seasons are Fantastic, I actually really enjoyed them. Full of real morals, entertaining ideas & characters. I can see why it was a hit. But There’s absolutely NO comparison between the early seasons & what SpongeBob is now. A show like this wouldn’t last a year if it weren’t for the Icon of SpongeBob. It’s not much better than bright colors & jingling keys.
I feel like this new variant of jellyfish here is lazy. Jellyfish are meant to be a parody of bees and butterflies in the show, but these bumble jellies are just jellyfish with a bumblebee color plate, that produce yellow jelly to look like honey. It would’ve felt more creative for them to keep the jellyfish pink or purple or blue or whatever, and give them a striped look with their signature color scheme, instead of just ripping off the actual animals they’re basing them on.
Ah yes, "the writer's barely disguised fetish" - a classic cartoon trope at this point. Bonus points if there's multiple episodes with it or if it feels like it was written by Dirty Dan Schneider.
It makes me so sad. Spongebob was my favorite show as a kid. I hope it just ends already, for the sake of whatever remaining dignity the show's name has left. And for the sake of the poor voice actor's vocal chords, Tom Kenny sounds like its starting to hurt him. He is the best voice actor of our generation, we must protect him.
Modern spongebob Is Like modern clone high, made by people who like a particular part of the show and not the whole things and using their power to make a show that's based off what they want to see and do and not the actual show
- Add in a lot of half baked toilet/gross-out jokes - Have a somewhat reasonable but grumpy character get tortured for laughs - make the characters constantly grunt and shout sentences - have (at least one of) the main characters' personalities overly "happy go lucky" - include annoying musical numbers - make the art style way too bright, colorful and ugly - don't include any hidden messages or lessons (I personally don't think every single story needs to have a lesson to be good, but it is usually better to include some, especially in children's media) - have every episode reset back to the status quo (this one isn't a bad thing in general, but without any changes your show will become pretty stale over time) - have characters who are guilty win at the end of the episode - Come up with terrible plots (bonus points if you extend them into special episodes such as "SpongeBob, You're fired!" or "Squirrel jelly")
Watching modern spongebob makes me ill, just this creeping feeling that this shouldn’t be. Like watching a loved one succumb to dementia and fade away.
I feel you dude, these newer Episodes feel downright Deranged nowadays than good since they made so many good episodes and medicore ones with stories that makes not much sense.
@@andykishorei have not watched modern spongebob. What is up with people and feet nowadays? 10 years ago they were considered gross to the point tv stars wouldnt show them because we might be eating while watching
It feels like those specifically targeting kids channels, that have bad voiceovers of fav cartoon characters and a fucking wild premise with even weirder fixations
This show feels so off now, the animation and story... it's almost giving **shivers** Ren & Stimpy vibes and that show was disgusting and disturbing. It honestly breaks my heart, because I, as well as a lot of other fans, got so attached to SpongeBob and the other characters throughout the show. I also feel bad for the creator, rest in peace, Stephen Hillenburg! This is such disrespect!
Just a random thought: When I was little and throughout my childhood, I've never liked loud, obnoxious, gross stuff. So I always chose to watch calmer shows and TH-camrs who were still funny without being gross or annoying. There's always going to be kids who just don't like annoying stuff, so I wonder what shows little kids that are like how I was watch now. I know spongebob has become pretty annoying, and I don't know if anything else I watched became this way either. At least Bluey is a show I'm sure shyer, quieter kids like. I hope one day when I grow up and have kids of my own, that if they are like I was when I was little, that there will be shows out there for them to enjoy, that aren't dumbed down.
I like how you mention in the outro is not nautical. Modern SpongeBob really doesn’t feel like it’s underwater at all. Something that was special about the early seasons

@@auditect950 Dang. First it was real feet, now it's animated feet. I know feet are normal things to have, but some of these frames are just unnecessarily nasty. I wonder if Nick will ever escape the curse.
@Azurethewolf168 I mean...you guys remember what their logo used to be?
@@Theshadiestofslims Nickelodeon might reconsider the foot fetish thing after Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV came out.
I feel you, new episodes are not only wild, theyre downright deranged
They aren't deranged. They are absolutely degenerate
At least in Seasons 6-8, the episodes actually had coherent plots.
lol TH-cam, you can delete my Comment but that doesn't change the Fact that the new Episodes are absolutely degenerate
They feel like a little bit of both honestly.
In a bad way
Geez man, Tom Kenny should just happily retire the Spongebob role, his Spongebob voice is so unlike the old one its crazy
I think there's a reason why Tom won't get an understudy. He doesn't want anyone else to be the new spongebob. It's almost as of he wants his own curse go down with him
At least if SpongeBob is recast him sounding off will make more sense. Me personally they aren't holding Tom Kenny hostage. Clearly he still very much enjoys his character and wants to continue, otherwise, he would've retired long ago. He still has passion for this character, but he can't do the voice forever, he's getting older, of course. Sometimes, there's things you just can't do forever, but if Tom Kenny wants to do the voice more, let him. This is a big part of his life.
Knowing Nickelodeon, they'd probably just use AI instead of hiring a new voice actor for him
I watched this episode a few days ago and my smile dropped when I realized they are still trying to use kamp koral characters in SpongeBob. Modern SpongeBob pls stop trying to get kamp koral in the main show 🙏🙏
I hate these Narwhal characters because they took a GRACEFUL almost mythical arctic animal, and turn it INTO a gross caricature of people from thr Appalachian mountains!
Spongebob introduced a bunch of things like how Spongebob and Sandy met and Patricks parents. Modern Spongebob and it's spinoffs decided to change all of that.
@Azurethewolf168It’s sad how I’m agreeing with one of you
0:48 "End of Summer Daze" is the series finale to Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years (Thank God!), but why are we still making references to Kamp Koral characters when that show is technically over now? I know these episodes are produced in advance, but the timing of these releases are still really weird.
For god sake nickelodeon shut up it isnt canon
They should just END the series.I know the nostalgia makes it hard hard,but THIS is what they're planning to go on with?Nah.
Hillenburg only wanted to make 3 seasons, so if he’d gotten his wish, the last episode would’ve been Pranks a Lot, which would’ve ended the series on a high note (not counting the movie), and they could’ve at least continued with other media like games and comics. This?
…
I don’t want Nickelodeon in my cable anymore.
3:15
Those are narwhals? Those are narwhals?! I suppose you're gonna say Barnacle Boy is a Cuttlefish next?!
Ive noticed that SpongeBob, not even just the new seasons, like to make fun of country folk. In modern seasons it is much worse, though.
And yet Nickelodeon says we HAVE TO BE DIVERSE..hypocrites!
Ngl its most likely a psyop to portray country folk as unintelligent cavemen who lack basic conprehension of social norms.
@@shirleymaemattthews4862As a Missouri man I find it grotesque. Very anti-poor people and moral grandstanding on the uneducated. No sympathy, only ridicule for people who do not choose their circumstances and wish to stay with family. Down to mocking the culture. There needs to be understanding, not mocking!
True
@@fuzzybuzzy3159 I agree! Yet, these guys will HATE portraying Muslims, Jews, Blacks, or Asians (except for the anime or otaku stuff) as bad or trashy. But will be ok with mocking the Irish, Brits, Scandinavians, French people, Voodoo believers (Which is an ACTUAL African religion, being portrayed as stupid dark wizardy), and like here, (mostly Southern) rural people!
Modern SpongeBob has become at this point brainrot
Nickelodeon: "We're diverse and love all nationalities, happy disablility, arabic, jewish, and asian American heritage month!"
Also Nickelodeon: *LITTEARLY creates Spongebob characters that are ruthless parodies of a stereotypical caricature of people from The Appalachian mountains"
and its not even one character like narlene, it's the entire narwhal species! I remember when in early seasons they made fun of texas in front of sandy but she fought back and it was clear spongebob & patrick were in the wrong. Plus sandy is an actual character instead of one dimensional stereotype. Now the episodes are just "country folk = goofy"
So true
Remember when they were barn raising and the barn had a Barn-mitzfah?
I just remembered that, sorry.
You only have to be nice to non-white nationalities (Excluding Jews)
because YT bad
Written and directed by Dan Schnieder.
Modern spongebob is like watching a hedgehog get hit by a truck and then getting run over again and again by every car that passes by making the corpse more and more mangled with each hit
How would anyone be able go tell these are narwhals without being told. Or tell that this is under water?
The head’s about the only way you can tell.
Not even the hair or hats, because they seem so “tropical” and country-esque that you’d think they’re not Arctic animals.
Why are there humanoids in spongebob now 😨??
You know shit is wild when AISponge has a better humor and story structure than modern SpongeBob.
Dr. 2006 Honda Civic Jr. 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
wow modern spongebob is horrifying. I'm glad I haven't ever seen past season 7.
Awe is being tortured in unimaginable agony to bring us the light of knowledge. He's like the Emperor of spongebob analysis
Season 9b and Season 10 are alright. Everything afterwards is not good.
The show ended after the 2nd movie for me.
Literally everything after Season 10 is forgettable
2:36 The Old Sandy would've been more caring. She would never do that to an Animal unless it hurted her first.
#NotMySandy
The Gary thing is actually pretty consistent, honestly. If memory serves, he's regularly been shown to throw a party in Spongebob's prolonged absence.
On the newest episode of “The writer’s barely disguised fetish”
Honestly, even the ending of Feral Friends was kind of sus.
@@bugonboris6681i have to wonder if Dan Schneider is secretly working on this show at this point

i get actors get older but bruh spongebob sounds so off and a bit deep
I think the deepness *was* (originally, at least) supposed to be a correction course after Spongebob's voice got too squeaky in Season 6, but that's just me.
Everything else, though? Y e a h . . . 😓
I’m actually glad that this guy, and the people I’ve seen in the comments are competent people who realize that modern SpongeBob qualifies as newer episodes from around Season 9 or 10 and up, and not “anything after the first movie.”
Yeah, happy to see seasons 4-8 aren't considered "new SpongeBob" anymore. Sure those seasons may have been the downfall of SpongeBob, but all of those episodes are 11 years or older at this point.
@@andykishorei still consider them modern spongebob as that term refers to quality, not age, so Season 4 is still "modern" because it is abysmal despite being 20 years old
I think there were a lot of fantastic episodes after the first movie, the show didn't go downhill around that point like everyone else says, Spongebob is still an funny show so any season post season 3 is overhated by people on the internet since a lot of those seasons have been great
Hmm, let's call it middle-aged. :D-P
@@PinkGoldPeach23105Season 4 isn’t a bad season. Sure, it’s not the golden age of 1-3, but it’s still not bad.
0:44 Tom Kenny your voice needs rest. 0:56 shocked. Help Tom Kenny.
But isn't it like how it was starting with the first movie?
Wait at 0:56 that was SpongeBob??? 😭😭😭😭
It doesn't even sound like spongebob anymore, it's like Tom if he had a sinus infection or something
And hire Tom Schalk for SpongeBob’s new voice actor.
@@Key-Knight87yeah because he means you in yourself look at SpongeBob in funny pants and compare him in these episodes his voice has almost gone.
I wanna offer my perspective, as a kid I never watched SpongeBob because my parents found it annoying.
So I have Zero personal connection to the earlier seasons. So It’s not rose tinted glasses effecting my view.
I only watched the show recently because I simply was out of touch with what the big deal of SpongeBob was.
The first few seasons are Fantastic, I actually really enjoyed them. Full of real morals, entertaining ideas & characters. I can see why it was a hit.
But There’s absolutely NO comparison between the early seasons & what SpongeBob is now. A show like this wouldn’t last a year if it weren’t for the Icon of SpongeBob. It’s not much better than bright colors & jingling keys.
Your parents allowed you too see societal degredation. Maybe you will grow to fix it in this world
Ngl, as a kid I kinda always found SpongeBob quite an annoying show at times, I like it but still, I watch it but it's highly rare
@@Jaiden_Anime_ShunsEdgy. Don't slit the wrist on the way out the internet door.
@@CantRead1 a five year old account with 1 comment. Are you the original posting under another name to try to pwn? Pathetic
Yeah that's not my SpongeBob.
"Stop, stop, he's already dead!!" (Modern Spongebob in a nutshell)
Literally everything wrong with the show could be explained with “because it’s modern SpongeBob”😂
well at least that new location is kinda cool on itself ngl
The background artists are cooking
@@awespongebobto bad they're the only ones that ARE cooking
The backgrounds are the best part of this episode.
my brethren in christ, you are speaking thy language of facts
I feel like this new variant of jellyfish here is lazy.
Jellyfish are meant to be a parody of bees and butterflies in the show, but these bumble jellies are just jellyfish with a bumblebee color plate, that produce yellow jelly to look like honey.
It would’ve felt more creative for them to keep the jellyfish pink or purple or blue or whatever, and give them a striped look with their signature color scheme, instead of just ripping off the actual animals they’re basing them on.
Ah yes, "the writer's barely disguised fetish" - a classic cartoon trope at this point. Bonus points if there's multiple episodes with it or if it feels like it was written by Dirty Dan Schneider.
Aint no way they let Dan Schneider make an idea for a modern spongebob episode 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
It makes me so sad. Spongebob was my favorite show as a kid. I hope it just ends already, for the sake of whatever remaining dignity the show's name has left. And for the sake of the poor voice actor's vocal chords, Tom Kenny sounds like its starting to hurt him. He is the best voice actor of our generation, we must protect him.
I wonder if one of Dan Schneider's writers were in this episode because of the feet.
if I've never seen spongebob and someone showed me an episode of modern spongebob I would have no idea that it takes place in the sea
Narlene looks like she walked straight out of a fanfiction site
Right? And she has no personality trait that Spongebob or other characters could bounce off of or clash with. She just a yes-man for the ‘plot’.
Modern spongebob Is Like modern clone high, made by people who like a particular part of the show and not the whole things and using their power to make a show that's based off what they want to see and do and not the actual show
modern spongebob is like that one joke a kid in high school made that went on to the point where it's annoying and repetitive
This show fell off hard, it needs to end already.
Should have ended at first movie or second movie
Like the Simpsons, Spongebob shall be immortal
@@DarkWarchieffand family guy
0:48 Kamp Koral gave an actual SpongeBob ending for once. "End of Summer Daze" is the episode you're looking for.
@@andykishore bro the SpongeBob movie is.made to end the show
Modern SpongeBob share the ssme basic principles similar to other modern kids cartoons:
1) Draw some characters
2) Turn the brainrot to the max
- Add in a lot of half baked toilet/gross-out jokes
- Have a somewhat reasonable but grumpy character get tortured for laughs
- make the characters constantly grunt and shout sentences
- have (at least one of) the main characters' personalities overly "happy go lucky"
- include annoying musical numbers
- make the art style way too bright, colorful and ugly
- don't include any hidden messages or lessons (I personally don't think every single story needs to have a lesson to be good, but it is usually better to include some, especially in children's media)
- have every episode reset back to the status quo (this one isn't a bad thing in general, but without any changes your show will become pretty stale over time)
- have characters who are guilty win at the end of the episode
- Come up with terrible plots (bonus points if you extend them into special episodes such as "SpongeBob, You're fired!" or "Squirrel jelly")
“Alright, Tommy, ready to destroy your vocal cords even more?”
“ *sigh* Yes, daddy Nick”
It's like Dan Schneider wrote some of these episodes. There's way too much feet.
That is not SpongeBob. That is someone wearing spongebobs skin, I will not be convinced otherwise.
Watching modern spongebob makes me ill, just this creeping feeling that this shouldn’t be. Like watching a loved one succumb to dementia and fade away.
oh god please let tom kenny retire before they end up with another Marge Simpson voice actor scenario
I feel you dude, these newer Episodes feel downright Deranged nowadays than good since they made so many good episodes and medicore ones with stories that makes not much sense.
2:53 I feel like this joke would’ve actually landed if Patrick took out a crowbar or a wrench instead of a chainsaw
Dan Schneider operating from beyond the grave
The fact that Plankton calls his own family stupid at 3:27 is wild 😂
"Definitely NOT Squidward"
Damn, Spongebob...
Here before you get marked for kids… for the eighthteenththosandth time
He should swear a bit in the end just to make sure he wont get market as for kids
The fetish stuff alone should be enough to NOT mark this as "made for kids."

I hate how modern SpongeBob sounds way too country
It feels like those specifically targeting kids channels, that have bad voiceovers of fav cartoon characters and a fucking wild premise with even weirder fixations
At this point, it feels like Tom Kenny is getting tortured each time he has to voice act in modern SpongeBob episodes.
Post Movie SpongeBob: Meanspirited
Post Sequel SpongeBob: The Exact Opposite Of Post Movie

I hate the narwhals. They are just pure cringe IMO
They just have to have a camp coral reference but they can't even make an episode that makes sense
SpongeBob sounds so different that its actually mind boggling
He doesn’t sound that different to me.

Free Tom Kenny from Nickelodeon's basement!!
Jeez, you can just hear that Tom Kenny's heart just isn't in this anymore. Not as much, anyway.
Comparing modern SpongeBob to Angry Birds toons is insulting...
To the toons.
Jesus fucking Christ it's honestly depressing to see what SpongeBob looks like nowadays. The show should have been ended in season 8-9.
I'm not really sure why Narwhal are hillbillies? Shouldn't they be Inuit if anything?
I could literally hear tom kenny's spongebob voice dying
Oof Tom Kenny really needs to retire from this character. I worry what it has done to his vocal cords
This show feels so off now, the animation and story... it's almost giving **shivers** Ren & Stimpy vibes and that show was disgusting and disturbing. It honestly breaks my heart, because I, as well as a lot of other fans, got so attached to SpongeBob and the other characters throughout the show. I also feel bad for the creator, rest in peace, Stephen Hillenburg! This is such disrespect!
This feels less SpongeBob and more Fanboy and ChumChum
Just a random thought: When I was little and throughout my childhood, I've never liked loud, obnoxious, gross stuff. So I always chose to watch calmer shows and TH-camrs who were still funny without being gross or annoying. There's always going to be kids who just don't like annoying stuff, so I wonder what shows little kids that are like how I was watch now. I know spongebob has become pretty annoying, and I don't know if anything else I watched became this way either. At least Bluey is a show I'm sure shyer, quieter kids like. I hope one day when I grow up and have kids of my own, that if they are like I was when I was little, that there will be shows out there for them to enjoy, that aren't dumbed down.
You could always expose them to the golden oldies. Growing up in a later era doesn't require one to indulge in that era's (garbage) media.
I like how you mention in the outro is not nautical. Modern SpongeBob really doesn’t feel like it’s underwater at all. Something that was special about the early seasons
