[@Zo1dus]

Theres a problem with this prequel. In the actual spongebob show they have given us how each character met eachother. Spongebob moved into a pineapple that fell on squidwards garden,and patrick came over and they became friends. And in the first episode of spongebob, mr. Krabs met spongebob when spongebob came to get a job as frycook. And spongebob met sandy in the first season were he was invited for tea and cookies and he almost suffocated to death.

[@derrickhaggard]

This show is an alternate timeline. Basically in one of the early episodes Kid Sandy gets a message from her adult self and is tasked with insuring that Plankton doesn't steal the Krabby Patty formula in order to prevent a apocalyptic future and Kid Sandy is at first unsure of doing something that will alter the past aka afraid of doing something that will result in the timeline this version of her adult self is from getting erased, or being radically altered to where it's unrecognizable, but Adult Sandy reassures that version of her kid self that nothing real bad is going to happen and at most all that's going to happen is the timeline will be splintered into multiple branches with one branch being the OG timeline we all know and love, one branch being the Kamp Koral timeline, and one branch being the The Patrick Star Show timeline, which is exactly what happens.

[@Jonathontimblin7706gay]

This is clearly an alternate timeline it's based off the newest movie where they recreated their backstories

[@hackidreemurr]

Also, Mr. Crabs and Mrs. Puff also met each other for the first time in a Spongebob episode. The only people who knew each other from childhood on were Mr. Crabs and Plancton

[@klg9549]

I remember reading that Stephen Hillenburg really had to FIGHT to keep Spongebob as an adult, and he compromised with the execs by giving Spongebob the boating school setting. So that on top of the no spinoffs thing makes Kamp Koral feel extra insulting.

Okay legit I really felt like Spongebob should have ended after the movie. The first 3 seasons are absolutely hilarious and great. My roommates and I watched it within the last 2 years and we were all laughing and had nostalgia. The jokes hold up. The reason why the movie would have been a perfect ending point is because it would have completed the show arc of spongebob being a great employee. He finally became manager of the second Krusty Krab. If it ended like that we would have finally seen the childlike character truly make a huge step and become more adult. That was a decent theme in the movie. Although being adult while still having fun was another big thing too. They should have kept to that, but they had to keep going.

I also like the 3D animation and art style. The retconning really is the problem. And it's half-assed as well. In the third movie, the child versions had kids voices, what happened to that? And wasn't Squidward a camper in the movie's flashback, but in the tv show he's a counselor..? And they tried TWICE (both movie and show) to retcon the origin of krabby patties, and Sandy doesn't even belong in the prequel. Despite what I said, they are actually some parts of the spin-off that I like. Although it's not objectively as good as the first few seasons of the original show I have my own reasons for enjoying it. But it's trying way too hard to be relevant. We don't need a retcon.

They're a bit desperate to emulate the old seasons now; there are a few episodes that have brought back Nosferatu. They're trying to be relevant but the thing is he was a punchline, not a whole-ass character. They also had this part in Kamp Koral "Camp Nudist" where Sandy imagined herself doing art and the human hand from the original show's intro gave her a trophy. Like... That's not funny. That's not how the joke works.

Looking forward to that "What Ruined SpongeBob?" video. And I think you might enjoy the post-sequel era since Hillenburg was involved with that prior to passing away. Also, I think Big Birthday Blowout (the 20th Anniversary special) is a pretty solid conclusion for SpongeBob, even when compared to the original movie.

[@bigepicturtles]

I didn't even know this existed until now

[@heatherlowry754]

Hillenberg's departure and following death definitely impacted the quality

[@sadlobster1]

My father is almost in his 70's; thus, he grew up at the time Looney Tunes were the "Spongebob" of the world. As such, he looks at the series and says it "looks disgusting" and thinks there's something "wrong" with the people who enjoy it (people like you and me.) While I agree that not EVERYTHING Spongebob related is gold, it's still a very influential property; just like the Looney Tunes were. Heck, Obama, his children and some big name celebs who WEREN'T affiliated with the show love the lil' square dude. So, for our parents to say there's something "wrong" with us for liking Spongebob has to be an even bigger bias than all the people who originally hated the idea of this spinoff

[@DxC-95]

That kind of reminds me of how my parents saw SpongeBob before we were able to watch it (we didn't get channels like Nickelodeon until I was a teen) They thought it looked stupid on the surface. Then, my dad said when he was in a waiting room for something, an episode was playing on the TV; I forget the name, but it was the one where Squidward was running an art class, SpongeBob was the only one attending, and he was constantly doing his assignments perfectly. My dad said it was actually pretty funny XD And now that we've been able to watch it for several years, they still think it's kind of dumb, but at the same time, they think it's funny. One of the jokes my dad always laughs at was when SpongeBob and Patrick told Squidward to draw an anti-sea bear circle, the bear attacks him, and they tell him it has to be a circle, not an oval XD I think it helps that my parents watched The Munsters, The Addams Family, and The Three Stooges a heck of a lot more than cartoons, in terms of comedy shows, when they were younger. They'll definitely say if a cartoon looks disgusting or not funny at all, but they won't call people stupid for liking it; not to downplay your experiences with your father, mind you.

[@sadlobster1]

@@DxC-95 Believe me, my father has caught some glimpses of Spongebob and other cartoons I watch but even then, he still claims they look disgusting. Even my elder step-brother thinks that way too, comparing Spongebob's animation and quality to that of Ren & Stimpy or Family Guy

[@flasker9177]

[@personmcdudeguy]

I think a big part of why SpongeBob has stayed so relevant is that it didn't get too diluted. Yeah the recent seasons got rough, but it was still SpongeBob. We weren't constantly shown a million spinoffs. And now that we're gonna get that, I think Spongebob will become oversaturated and all that will contribute more and more to a feeling of SpongeBob feeling "played out." There was a reason Hillenburg fought against Kamp Koral his whole career. Edit: Apparently he worked on Kamp Koral, so the last part doesnt count. but he still opposed spinoffs for much of his career.

[@pepearown4968]

It also didn’t suffer the same fate as the Fairly Odd Parents, where they kept throwing more and more rules and characters of the show out of the window. SpongeBob’s done a pretty good job at keeping its character base pretty consistent. They’ve even made Bubble Bass a regular in the newer seasons.

@@personmcdudeguy Yeah, to sum that up, Stephen said he didn't see any spin-offs happening. I guess he changed his mind when Kamp Koral came into play since he was involved with it. Someone else mentioned he only saw a spin-off happening if SpongeBob was mainly involved, so The Patrick Show is something he probably didn't want, which is understandable.

The one good thing about sponge on the run was the animation. The animation in that movie was colorful and expressive warm and inviting. The 2D models of the characters were brought over so well into 3D. Camp Coral just doesn't have that in my opinion at least.

Will there be a "What's Ruining/Ruined" on Spongebob in the near future?

[@shadesmcf]

_Isnt it crazy how most of us have saw a muscular fish tried stabbing a sponge on top of david hasselhoff_ i think a good indicator of a show is when you can smile when you see a small clip of the show or remember a moment of it and feel warm. im sure that in the more recent episodes of spongebob have those, and im sure the patrick show and that kamp koral show have their fair share. Just as when we would experience them for the first time too. However theres just something that the original run and even the first movie that sorta brought in an excited experience more than the more recent stuff. I like the art of Kamp Koral, though it does suffer from the things the main show has went through in the more recent seasons. I do think it needs some work. The lighting reminds me of how people would start off using a program like blender to build 3d models and just place them in an environment. Think the shows need more directions and more to their plots that dont just have one part of their character put up to the max. we were all like spongebob once, then we became a lot like squidward, now i dont think we are that much like squidward anymore cause of how the character has become. But if its fun and a hit with the kids, and can net you a laugh or a chuckle it should get a pass right, the old shows seasons still there. i didnt mean to write this long, thanks for reading if you did~

I recommend checking out season 12. A lot of people shit on the new animation because its "too wacky", but honestly its the smoothest animation the series has ever had. It also has a lot of great, memorable moments. I don't know, thats my opinion. I think season 12 is the best season* we've gotten in a long time and is definitely worth the watch. You're going to hate it if you go in with the mindset of "Grr this ding dang spongebob ain't what it used to be!!" because the series truly has evolved, but in a lot of ways, the latest seasons occasionally have writing that feels solid enough to be from season 2 or 3. *Every season (yes, I mean seasons 4-8, too.) has classic episodes, but theres always those episodes that throw off the whole season. Whether its the splinter, or the toenail scene, or something like that. This comment is a spiraling mess, if anyone read this, thank you, and please take what I said into consideration. (Or don't. Just know I'm not gonna fight with you guys in the replies. I don't need to defend my opinions.)

[@PackHams]

TL;DR: NEW (brand new) spongebob good. worth watch.

[@lasttestament1]

I think the biggest argument for 2D versus 3D animation is that 2D animation can literally pull off many different art styles to pull off different jokes/evoke different emotions. Like have a main animation style but then get hyper detailed to evoke horror based jokes (like Adventures of Flapjack). I feel like 3D animation hasn't really picked up that level of adaptability just yet.

Camp Coral: **Exists** The first epsiode(s): Am I a joke to you? Basically, Spongebob met Mr. Karbs in the first episode, Help Wanted. That's where he *first* met him. Same with Sandy and Plankton. But in Camp Coral, they all already met. Even Sandy. So I have a theory on this. So every single episode, movie, show, whatever, is anotehr timeline. Some connects. Like is the thrid movie, Sponge On The Run, it show the Krabby Patty car. Meaning, Camp Colar, Sponge On The Run, and the first Spongebob Movie, are connected. In each timeline, there are different stories, some may be the same, some different.

[@aven78]

The new Spongebob is what I would call Movement Porn. Almost every line and reaction is not small anymore, there isn't just a small reaction, but instead everything done has some insane amount of movement. It has more of a Tex Avery kind of animation sometimes where every laughter, walk, or even conversation has this excess animation for no reason. It's just trying to hypnotize you to keep your brain off. Comparing it to the early stuff it's definitely two different worlds. While the original had some insanity with movement it was far fewer and made those moments special, but now that it happens every 20 seconds on screen it feels like garbage for your eyes and brain. The original run of Spongebob feels like a normal cartoon, but this current stuff is definitely in the "lol random" era of cartoons like Teen Titans Go or Powerpuff Girls (2016).

[@cabralanselmo5777]

I would say it's closer to Mickey Mouse 2013 than Teen Titans Go since it has the same problem plus some shared staff with SpongeBob to boot.

Sponge Bob isn't a franchise material. It's a comedic show with like 5 main characters. Take TMNT you mentioned. Action series. Many characters. Turtles can go to space, can fight NY city gangs, save the planet from aliens, explore their ninja roots and so on. Later adaptations also have story arcs and character development. Sponge Bob universe isn't that expandable. Characters are tied to one location, they must always go back to the status quo. Looney Tunes comes up with creative concepts putting characters in new environments (TinyToons, Looney Tunes Show). Sponge Bob just cannot just do that. This is not franchise material.
