[@lordhighkage7105]

The problem that newer SpongeBob falls into is that SpongeBob was never inherently annoying. He was only cheerful, optimistic, and a bit on the naive side, which naturally bothered a good portion of the cast because they themselves are either cynical, self-centered, or both(Squidward, Mrs. Puff, Plankton, arguably Krabs). The dynamic is what made it funny, SpongeBob was just living life while everyone else is reacting to it as if it's complete insanity. He wasn't annoying, they were just often annoyed by him.

[@armorpro573]

And at least he had some personality. I mean, he and Patrick often got into quarrels and he even yells at Squidward to get a job. If you make a one dimensional character with zero qualities, then you're just asking for trouble

SpongeBob actually had personality The animation was simple, yet good And Patrick actually had SOME smart Moments Edit: and everything looks too colorful😭

When the customer was mean to Spongebob and how Squidward stood up to the customer despite being annoyed with Spongebob. It showed that yes someone can annoy you but you can be annoyed by someone and still care for them. It had wacky humor sprinkled in but it never took away from their personality or character.

Man, I'm not even gonna lie. This episode had so much potential to be so memorable. The concept of characters who hate SpongeBob coming together to vent about their frustrations/problems with him, is seriously a great plot idea. I'm just sad that the story sucked, and that it was extremely predictable. Another issue that I definitely dislike the most about this episode: Why was SpongeBob a part of the episode at ALL? I mean, like, not in the flashbacks, those make sense. It would make sense for SpongeBob to obviously be in the flashbacks/stories they all tell. But SpongeBob could've easily been left out of the episode outside of the stories. They could've gone to Mrs. Puff's house, they could've gone to the Chum Bucket. Hell, they could meet up in a cabin somewhere deep in the freaking woods. But of course the writers chose Squidward's house because HAHAH LET'S DESTROY SQUIDWARD'S HOUSE FOR THE UP-TEENTH TIME. Seriously, what the hell is that?! Anyways, yeah, episode could've been a LOT better, but these problems definitely are what ruin it.

What's more annoying is yet again what did Squidward even do to deserve getting his house destroyed? Like the older episodes a lot of times something bad happened to Squidward it was Karma, like I think one of the first episodes he gets his house destroyed he basically purposefully causes SpongeBob and Patrick too hate each other and majorly regrets this and has to get them to be friends again. Granted I feel like him getting his house destroyed even tho he did the right thing in the end is a little harsh, but like I said he did at least do something pretty mean to deserve what happened to him, so it was still pretty amusing and fun to watch, also in the end he was just getting them to be friends again for himself so they'd leave him alone and not doing it for them so I guess that's sorta bad too.

[@chicnuggs8238]

I feel like SpongeBob just fell victim to every show that runs longer than it should: Singularity. People liked Squidward's gloomy nature, for example. As time progress and the show continued, ideas ran dry, and it became a matter of quantity over quality. The show reps looked out, since looking in obviously wasn't working, and they saw people relating to how gloomy and darkly humoured Squidward can be. So, they decided to play it up a bit. Everyone likes relatability, right? Right. However, over time, they went too far, and drained Squidward of what was the actual love of him. For his charm, his wit and sarcasm, his limits and his moments of defense for SpongeBob. That was what people actually loved, bc they made his gloomy dark humor more of a reward and appropriate setting. And the show reps failed to see it. So, Squidward reached a point of singularity, where he became solely his enraging annoyance and depressed ideations. It stopped being Squidward on his various days, good or bad, it became Squidward solely on his worst days, and no one desires that constant negativity.

[@KingsNerdCave]

Band Geeks has to be my all-time favorite episode. From the funny musical jokes, to squidward getting the big win in the end, to that awesome song that should still be the superbowl half-time show. After like season 6 or 7 I completely fell out with the show and would really only rewatch season 1-4 and the first movie. I HATED what they did to characters. Spongebob was made more annoying than endearing to cause stories for other characters, Patrick is so stupid he's always mean and disregarding of other characters, Squidward went from causing issues and getting karma to just bad things happening to him without anyone caring, Mr. Krabs would be willing to send people to prison or kill them for more money instead of money not being everything to him. There's many reasons the IQ of the world is dropping, one is how old Spongebob used to teach me new words and lessons on top of being funny, now everyone is loud and stupid for no reason other than cheap gags.

[@exdrill]

One of my main issues with the newer seasons has to be Patrick's personality, in the older seasons, he used to be a really great friend to spongebob, albeit a bit naive. Now he's just "generic dumb person that eats lots of food cause glutton thing". Another one of my main gripes is relying on nostalgia pandering, I'm alright with using old side characters in more episodes, but to the point where they have some sort of season 1-3 reference in every episode just seems obviously desperate now. (Fan service is good and cool, but not every episode please)

[@icecreamhero2375]

I love the references to old episodes. I hate it when they reference them and the characters don't seem to remember like in Doodle Dimension. That episode was crap.

[@Drknsl0]

a quick idea I had to fix the episode, What if these stories were fake versions of what happened because they don't like SpongeBob but in reality SpongeBob actually did things perfectly fine? for Bubble Bass' he thinks his order took hours longer than it should've, but in reality the order was actually one of SpongeBob's fastest (maybe he'd write down the time it took and bubble bass thought it was in hours and not seconds causing him to make up an entire story about just how long it took) Plankton's ruined story is about SpongeBob destroying all the technology in the Chum Bucket (including Karen) but it's a misremember of SpongeBob installing something to help Karen work faster (maybe Plankton would say something like "I just remembered a tool using tools") Mrs. Puff thinks it was the worst wreck SpongeBob has ever caused, but it was just a written test day and SpongeBob got an A (which checks out, it's the driving he's bad at not the knowledge) (then SpongeBob would say something like "the actual test is on Thursday" and Mrs. Puff checks what day it is) and for Squidward maybe he thinks SpongeBob ruined his best painting when he actually helped make it (then Squidward would give a backhanded compliment like "I guess you not as annoying as we all thought") this took me 10 minutes and I have no writing practice but this still seems better than what we actually got

[@pundertalefan4391]

I think the greater joke here is supposed to be each of the characters view Spongebob and how it causes them to likely exaggerate what he did in their stories. Mrs. Puff views him as a monster because of the terror he inflicts on her and other students with his destructive traumatizing driving and creepy obsession with a license to the point that he will probably take someone else's license without asking them and fawn over it. Bubblebass likely views his dedication at work to be annoying as its likely that he does fret over things not being good enough, Plankton views him as a chaotic idiot that irritates him constantly. But I think the overall joke is that each of their stories blows what he did out of proportion to cartoonish levels based on how each of the characters see him. He mot likely wasn't super creepy and getting off on rubbing someone elses license to him and didn't knowing kidnap Mrs. Puff, he likely came over weirded out the student by gushing over her license, which made her leave, at which point Spongebob legitimate thought Mrs. Puff was available to test him. He likely wasn't a perfectionist that literally sucked the soda out of Bubblebass's mouth or crawled into his mouth to get a Krabby Patty back out , more likely he made the order, thought it wasn't up to par and remade it (possibly even several times) which annoyed Bubblebass who wasn't looking for a five star meal, and his cluelessness and lack of intelligence probably did lead to him wonder in to Plankton's lab, damaging things and eventually locking Plankton out but the idea that he was literally acting like a bird trapped inside of a building with no hire thought processes seems unlikely. Which leads to the Squidward who is the only person whose story is 100% legitimate because he basically just lets a normal interaction with Spongebob and Patrick play out for the others who exaggerated their stories to see an example of exactly what Squidward actually deals with with no embellishment.

[@inciniumz4671]

My take is: The first era of Spongebob (seasons 1-3) was meant for everybody, which is part of how it achieved the acclaim it has. The second era (seasons 4ish-9) were just for kids with gross out humor and really dumb jokes. The most recent era (seasons 10-present) is built solely for children or for people who love the first seasons (mostly the references to the past, the humor is quite babyish this time around). What I mean to say is, Spongebob, over time, has become more and more a kid's show, not just a cartoon. Perhaps it was always that way and we just never noticed, but I feel that over time the humor and the character of Spongebob has become really juvenile. I had watched some in the modern era and I didn't dislike them, they were ok to me then. At this point it's all fluff, just the same thing trying to keep going but just either doing what someone else or itself did before or just kinda...eh. I don't know what's going on or why I've being so negative ltely but I didn't wanna write all this when I started. Heck I don't even really like old Spongebob as much as I used to, so maybe the reason behind all this is because I'm grown up. I'm not the dumb kid who watched dumb cartoons all day, I'm almost to college and I can drive a car. But if we don't look at what others and ourselves have made with a critical but patient lens, we never really think, do we? P.S. I like to separate Spongebob into three different eras, like Sonic Generations. You can notice a distinct style of animation and humor in each one.

Bruh, repeated ideas are not bad. Certain jokes/ ideas over and over are not bad, if they're written well. The once and done idea is just stupid. By that logic, Plankton should only be given one opportunity to steal the Krabby Patty formula one grand plan like the Spongebob Movie. F.U.N., New Leaf. Plankton's Army, Spy Buddies. These are imo the greatest of Plankton's escapades. By that logic, every villain is only one and done. No more Joker stories, no more Green Goblin stories, no more Lex Luthors.

I grew up with Spongebob, I still remember the promos and the first episode I saw in the weekend with Pizza Delivery. Those 3 seasons were the very best growing up, discussions at school, merch, going to Halloween as Spongebob and getting so many compliments when I was a kid loving Spongebob. Especially Band Geeks, eating Jack in the Box with my best friend. That was the perfect episode and shouldn't have kept going. I never watched a modern Spongebob episode after Truth or Square or Season 5, seeing their social media having returning characters like Nosferatu, and locations like recently Rock Bottom bothers me, its like they're saying "Remember these characters or in constant memes? Here they are 20 years later!" Like its some nostalgic memory but soured by having no other ideas besides nostalgia. I know they have some good episodes with the OG creator returned that one time but I just can't, either I'm too old or none of it captures to first 3 seasons that can still make me laugh over 20 years later. I'm impressed with the amount of animation it has, both Spongebob and Simpsons still carrying on 2D animation is a good thing, but when the product isn't very good or funny it's just a waste of effort. Just gif them and that's it. Cause I hate Spongebob and Patrick's voice direction since Season 4 and STILL does it.

I don't mind the newer episodes that much, and I actually like the more fluid and expressive animation and zanier stories, as it gives the show a more experimental feel compared to the older seasons. However, at the same, I will not deny that I'm not a fan of the more exaggerated character personalities, and this episode is definitely a prime example of that and why I dislike it. Also, did anyone else notice Bubble Bass briefly going off-model at 10:13. *Edit:* I just realized, the thumbnail for this video also has a lot of meme potential.

That's a fair point. It kinda reminds me of Lost in Bikini Bottom where Mr Hillenburg came back to work on that episode. I didn't recognize his touch (mostly because at the time I was still a younger kid who payed attention to visuals over story) but nevertheless, I heard other fans who did notice the special touch felt a similar way, as if they saw some renewed form of the old Spongebob, seeing an old friend again after a decade. Huh, I gotta give the new artists more credit for the new animation style.

[@GeteMachine]

Something just seems to just be off about modern spongebob, especially after season 3, maybe season 4. Where the humor just isnt there anymore. There just doesn't seem to be any jokes so much with the writing, and clever banter from the characters. A lot of it now seems to just focus on a whiplash of just nonstop, over-the-top random physics and scenarios instead of what the old show did better. It took mundane plotlines on paper, but made them hilarious with the dysfunctional but light hearted dynamics of the characters. Like the Camping episode or Wet Painters. I definitely think the modern Spongebob pretty much becoming a kids version of Ren & Stimpy now, is accurate. It doesn't work. Then of course Spongebob's character just seems flanderized beyond belief these days to just being a loud crybaby and Patrick being just clumsy and oofish, instead of just ironic to the plot, which used to be his humor. Spongebob though used to just be just innocent, dorky, and naive but had his moments of sharp maturity, insight, sarcasm and voice of the reason when the stories were focused on him. Especially in Season 2 and 3.

I think around Season 6 was when the humor of it all started to go into a downfall. Someone who wasn't Stephen Hillenburg himself wanted to throw in a lil' childish gimmicks to make the show seem like kids are to be left pondered as to why the characters don't act as how they were during the golden years of the show's beginning. Instead they're seeing how much random goofiness and inconvenient plot carries the type of humor that'll either have 'em say "ehh" or it annoys the heck out of their folks watchin it with 'em. After what I witnessed watching the ninth season, I just thought SpongeBob wasn't as it used to be anymore, so I officially quit watching the show all together and marked that season as the ending point to its TV running period.

King of The Hill was on for 13 seasons and never went downhill like Spongebob up until the very end. So it has little to do with just how long Spongebob has been running. At some point though, everyone involved in producing Spongebob just seemingly decided to stamp out even the slightest modicum of creativity, wit, and even effort with a fierce vengeance and replace that with grotesque art that I won't even call "gross-out gags" and less dedication to a good plot than a porno!

Do you guys remember when SpongeBob was an actual character with his own limitations, gripes and more than one emotion that didn't actively try to cause chaos for the people around him?

[@Namingway248]

To play devil's advocate, go back and watch episode 6 (the first mermaid man and barnacle boy episode) and you tell me early spongebob didn't have the ability to be a one emotion, unwarranted chaos causing machine. Legit all he does that episode is torture and bother ptsd-riddled elderly men until he got what he wanted. What I'm about to say is wild level conspiracy, but I think Paul Tibitt (who wrote the aforementioned episode and became the post-movie show runner for years) always sort of saw spongebob that way and probably had a big hand in slowly, perhaps unintentionally, shaping the cast into the way they are now. Other early spongebob writers are generally the ones to have given spongebob the more human aspects you (and I) remember.

[@Dezlite]

I remember, Spongebob at least felt natural with his personality. In some cases he would stand up for himself. Even to Mr Krabs and Squidward ("Can you spare a dime" is one example). Now he has one emotion, and it almost makes him seem like a child because he's happy 24/7

Meanwhile, Vincent was a high power on Ren and Stimpy and much of that show's grotesque and obnoxious slapstick transitioned to Spongebob, starting as early as season 2, blooming around the 3rd-4th season, and exploding into the one-note chaos bringer he is now. Given Waller became in charge recently, I feel he bears more responsibility for Spongebob's deterioration than Paul ever did. And then you have Kamp Koral's backstory completely shattering the show's baseline continuity... I just lost faith in the show. Sea Man Sponge Haters Club was the final nail in the coffin.

Why did the series get cancelled

[@elmothealmightygod]

One of the biggest issues with modern SpongeBob is that it turned its once colorful cast of characters into one-dimensional characters, having been reduced to sole, stereotypical personalities that exist only to satisfy the needs of the episode’s plot, in turn limiting the possibilities of storytelling. That's why many recent episodes have been accidentally showing similar traits from previous episodes, or have purposely relied on singular, one-joke characters out of desperation for originality. It’s not that there’s a lack of imagination or even effort at times, but when you have a show running for this long, future writing teams may not hold the same values, beliefs, or ideas that the creator once had in mind. Comedy is subjective and all but you don't have to love SpongeBob just because it's SpongeBob.

The very term you described is what is known as Flanderization. Named after The Simpsons character Ned Flanders, Flanderization is when new writers come to work on the show and make it easier to write about them by making a character’s specific traits their entire personality.
