ARCHIVE: SpongeBob Season 1 DVD Behind the Scenes

ViacomCBS deleted the Original one so, since I had it backed up, I decided to upload it.

Stephen hillenberg will always be remembered

[@PhineasandFerbFan98]

that’s right. Stephen Hillenburg will always be remembered in our hearts and minds of us all even though we always experience the old SpongeBob episodes that he worked on.

[@thedvdhole331]

YOU DID IT! YOU MADE THE OBLIGATORY COMMENT! YOU WIN THE BIG TROPHY!!!!!!

[@jayce5231]

I do

[@natesturm448]

At the time? They had *NO* idea how influential Spongebob would have on the world, and how long it would last. To this very day Spongebob is meme king to a lot of people.

lmfao ok thanks captain obvious

[@Elvusmiw]

Man, Steve and the gang really worked hard on the series

[@PhineasandFerbFan98]

they sure did

[@PhineasandFerbFan98]

back when it first started on the first of May in 1999 when the first episode premiered after the Kids Choice Awards and then it continued in July later on. Stephen Hillenburg was a great guy. he also played Potty the Parrot in the early Patchy the Pirate segments.

YOU HAVE TO BE GRATEFUL FOR THE MODERN SEASON'S ok?

Too bad that spark isn't seen today on the current seasons

Gosh, look how young they all looked. That was over 20 years ago.

R.I.P. Steve Hillenburg

[@noahwilliams8996]

I kind of wish I could have met him before he died. :(

[@BedrockSolid]

29:10 i was NOT expecting that, what a crazy sound haha

[@jrodr9169]

I don’t want to relive it ever again

[@Redh0und]

single best voice actor on the entire show lol

[@FSAPOJake]

That's Dee Bradley Baker for you. Half of his roles are "What a crazy sound"

[@geckopecko]

dee bradley baker is a crazy talented bastard

[@jimmy22334]

That's captain rex

[@teague4008]

This and chowder are 2 of the greatest comedic animations

[@jmentone]

As much as I love both shows, Chowder would’ve never been conceived if it wasn’t for Bikini Bottom.

[@HeavenIsEmpty1031]

C. H. Greenblatt was one of the golden age SpongeBob storyboard artists/writers. He and Aaron Springer (cartoon genius) gave us the weirder (and in my opinion best) episodes like Krusty Krab Training Video, Survival of the Idiots, Band Geeks, etc. A lot of that early SpongeBob humor shines beautifully in Chowder and helped seal my love for it. As a 23 year old now watching the show that came out when I was 10, I appreciate so much that out of the entire show, there was only 5 episodes C. H. didn’t write on. THAT’S dedication right there. And yes, I did cry like a baby in the finale when Chowder is grown up and voiced by C. H. Greenblatt himself.

[@jmentone]

@@HeavenIsEmpty1031 and it was conceived back when he was working on the citizens of the deep. SpongeBob walked so chowder could run. Without the former you most definitely wouldn’t have the latter.

[@jonathanc2959]

​@@HeavenIsEmpty1031C.H Greenblatt gave us Band Geeks one of the best episodes ever made ❤️

[@cosmokramer179]

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy was fucking funny

[@sandiegotrafficlightstrain354]

We all thought this show was going to end in 2004 with the first movie. Now it's 2022 and Spongebob is still going strong.

[@thundertv1431]

sadly they did end the show in December of 2021

[@PhineasandFerbFan98]

hold it! SpongeBob SquarePants is never going to end. it will go on forever for many years until they make more money with spin offs and movies.

[@morganrussman]

@@thundertv1431 proof?

[@randomsliceofcakeofficial]

@@thundertv1431 They didn’t. I see new episodes still coming out.

[@JXFlores_Customs]

Its not going so strong.

[@shreksmistress]

I love Plankton's voice so much, of course every other voice too just incredible.

[@SKOT_3]

The way Stephen talks so passionately about his own characters, with such an understanding of who they are, what they do. That's the kind of energy I want to channel with my own creations one day.

[@Persononyoutubeee]

Steve is a major contributing factor to the success of spongebob s1-s3, but I think the whole cast has so much sincerity and passion for creating art and animation that you don’t see with Nickelodeon nowadays. It’s so refreshing to see people who worked on the show act like normal people. I like to think Steve is the overall embodiment of that passion, being he is the mastermind behind spongebob, but this video definitely made me have the same sentiment for these people. I believe if the new Nickelodeon animators and writers had these kind of real people nowadays than just business executives trying to relate to the “younger folk” and using their past nostalgia to make up for their shitty present, it would be a lot better. You can’t succeed in a field like animation if you’re just in it for the money and not the passion imo

[@Persononyoutubeee]

I love seeing Steve’s old sculptures, art and other animation theyre very cool

[@DanielGonzalez-gf6oi]

He has created a show that not only shaped all of our childhoods, but inspired a whole new generation of animators based on his life as a former marine biology teacher and artist with a creative passion for the arts and the sea. Thank you Steve for making this the best day ever. R.I.P. Stephen Hillenburg (August 21, 1961 - November 26, 2018) ♥️♥️🕊️🕊️😇😇🙏🙏🧽

[@chanciefreeman3808]

RIP Stephen Hillenburg😢

[@I_h3art_Anne]

The best person to ever exist ❤️🕊️

[@juneru2]

It's cool how this show is made like any other cartoon would be made, and it's always neat to see the humble beginnings of something legendary like Spongebob.

[@GalekC]

Just from seeing every time Stephen moves, my heart hurts a bit & it's like "he must be protected"

[@Mjflight98]

watching this really makes me Appreciate all the talents of the people who put all the hours and dedication into this show and especially in the industry.

[@thediehardarkansasrazorbak7288]

Thank you Stephen Hillenburg!!!!....Rest in Peace!!!!

The coolest and most relaxing Behind the scenes ever! It's truly amazing to listen to and just watch the creativity fly! R.I.P Stephen thank you for making the best cartoon ever!

[@hamiltonharris9876]

I love the whole animation process of this show!!

[@dallincandland816]

Without realizing it, I was smiling half of the time watching this. To get to see the team as real people who had faith that their hard work was going to pay off. I can relate as an adult, and It was honestly touching. I appreciate what they did. :)

[@DeltaDobson]

thank you for creating the show i have watched growing up as a child. im now im my 20's, still watching this show, enjoying every joke and scene. The whole gang did an amazing job. My childhood heroes for real.

Best cartoon of the late 90's and early 2000's for sure

[@BrydenTV63]

The voice actors were so young

[@jmentone]

I’ve come to the conclusion that this show wildly succeeded because of Steve’s dedication and passion for his characters and setting. The definition of a labor of love.

Even though Stephen and the Nickelodeon executives knew that SpongeBob would be a massive success, I don’t think they knew HOW massive it would become. It’s culture at this point.

[@Juicedbeef]

19:49 wait is this lost media???? Possibly from when spongebob was still named spongeboy? it just sounds different. And is said to be the first time they voice acted as the characters
