this is probably my third time watching this series. that’s how you KNOW it’s good. and like, it’s not just the don’t wake the muse stuff (don’t worry, i am so freaking excited for the next episode and it truly is genius) but the theories themselves are so well done. the amount of effort that went into these, especially the later one. they get to be so insanely far out there yet you still managed to make a convincing case. i absolutely adore this channel/series. it was so genius to use spongebob theories for an ARG. idk if you’ve seen the Analog Horror of Alvin and the Chipmunks (can’t remember the guys name but his channel is awesome), but his videos are awesome as well, although they are not as scary and obviously him trolling. i believe fake theories/documentaries based on nostalgia combined with horror/realism is genius. even though his are very obviously made as a joke, i believe that this “genre” overall is going to be very successful when done well. anyways sorry for rambling, i just love this series and genre so much and am excited to see what else you have to offer in the future, whether you continue with the crazy kids show theories or make more short horror films. keep up the great work!!

I'm convinced that Squidward is aware of the television show, too. In two episodes, he made a reference to the lenth of most episodes (11 minutes) and the reason how he can afford a lot of expensive things despite being poorly paid by Mr. Krabs is because he is already well paid by the production team, which also explains why Spongebob and Patrick aren't living in complete poverty either. That could also be an explanation why Squidward didn't move away, since he has been payed by the production team to stay in Bikini Bottom for entertainment and every attempt of him moving away was sabotaged by the plot

There are a few more minor things to note. Spongebob is aware of the French Narrator but not that he’s part of a show. This is shown in Spongebob’s Birthday Blowout while exiting the ocean. Another thing to note is that while stuff like time cards seem to be done in editing, they’re also something the characters can do as shown in Wet Painters where Patrick holds up a “three hours later” sign and says “Can you hurry up? I’m running out of time cards.” So they appear to be a normal thing. More proof of this is how Spongebob does one while mimicking the narrator in Mimic Madness. As for the point of their existence in the fish world, I have no idea. But Patrick doing this for no reason as Spongebob is nervous to paint definitely fits Patrick’s stupidity. Patrick has been shown to be dumb many times, so I doubt he’s in on the show thing. But, if you’ve seen The Theorizer, he theorized that Patrick used to be smart but unplugged his brain like it’s seen in Patrick Smartpants. So, what if Patrick found out his life was staged and couldn’t live with that so he unplugged his brain? Hell, the show runners could’ve unplugged it to prevent others from finding out! Edit: Thanks for 1K likes! I know saying this is cliche, but I’ve never had a comment this popular before! It’s one of the top ones! It’s really nice when you’re not lost in the sea of comments and people like what you have to say.

I think there's a lot more to the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy theory. In season 3 episode 5, Mermaid Man says near the end of the episode that "We've been shrinking for years" and Barnacle Boy responds by saying "But this is ridiculous". This is after Spongebob uses the shrink ray on them I think there is some other factor that makes them grow smaller, not the shrink ray and this could be tied to Mermaid man's PTSD and dementia.

I find it funny that in both of the situations where the filmmakers run away after getting caught, it's SpongeBob who calls them out. You know, the flagship main character of the show? You can really see the fear in those fishes and the gorilla and horse after being caught by the main character himself, imagine that. If their reaction to being called out by the main character questioning his reality isn't proof enough that the television theory is canon, I don't know what is..

The fact that Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy can breathe underwater proves that they somehow have superpowers, as no other Human in the Show breathes underwater. Even Kenny the Cat (a one off Character from later Seasons), who allegedly held his breath for "years" still uses an Oxygen Tank when no one is looking. And if the Humans invented the "breath underwater" Technology, they definitly would've given it to Sandy as well. And don't come to me with Pearl as a counter argument. We don't see her everyday Life. And she is a Sperm Whale, who can hold their Breath for over 100 Minutes at a time. She could easily sometimes swim to take some fresh air or even hold her breath for much MUCH longer (toon physics and all that, Mr Krabs can breath Air as an underwater Crab after all).

[@hackidreemurr]

I'm convinced that there are indeed secret cameras in SPSB. In the episode, where Spongebob and Mr. Krabs planned to kill the health inspector, the reporter knew that Spongebob and Mr. Krabs were laughing, although they were hiding in the kitchen and nobody could've heard them laughing or more of laughing at cost of other people

[@Test-hi3xj]

The filmmakers must have interfered with a fake gorilla because spongebob was threatening to never leave his house, which would hurt the longevity of their show. Also if sandy is a spy, it makes sense that she was the character most determined to get spongebob to leave his house.

[@dafilmqueen556]

Could this theory also explain why so many fishes in this series have fake appendages and skins? For those unaware, I'm talking about Doug Woolever's SpongeBob Skin Theory. So many characters in this show are shown wearing fake skins. Squidward was once asked by SpongeBob to wear a realistic looking lobster costume that looks horrifying. Heck, in episode 'Imitation Krabs', SpongeBob unintentionally unmasks a random customer trying to reveal Plankton, and the shocked customer says 'Everyone at the head enhancement clinic said nobody would notice' before running away crying. He literally says clinic. Not costume shop, not cosplay, but clinic. He even specifies head enhancement. And seriously, his real head looks different from the rest of his body. In my opinion, I believe that the television producers have actually set up a complex costume shop/hospital for Bikini Bottom as another method of keeping the show relevant without our favorite porous sponge and company's knowledge. And why not? It's a good running gag, just one that has some dark implications depending on who you ask..

[@maxamps45]

​@@haashimnisar431 who knows, in the spongebob universe maybe the US army invented a device that would clean up the nuclear bombardment aftermath. edit: maybe there was a war between them and humans. and the nuclear bombing signals the bikini bottom's defeat. this result in mass brain washing erasing the deadly history. thus allowing peace under the constant surveillance and monitoring of humans. kind of a police state. there's a recurring gag that mr krabs was suffering ptsd because he lost his crew and officer in the war although it was unclear which war he fought. its been said numerous in some of the episode times that mr. krabs served in the navy. in season 3 episode 50b the narrator says: *"After the war, Krabs stayed secluded in a deep depression that seemed endless."* in a rumored ama with some of the production team. they jokingly said that mr. krabs fought the Russian navy or have been deployed in Vietnam. most likely this is not canon and can never be confirmed. but, it doesn't change the fact that they alluded that mr. krabs fought humans before. mr. krabs says that he's a cook sometimes a sailor, (his claim change every time whenever he talks about his role in the war). the inaccuracy of mr. krabs claim of what his role in the war was probably he was under a non disclosure agreement because they were defeated and had to abide to something called "victor's justice". and it was classified. and if he talks about the truth it could have serious consequence for him. in 2004 SpongeBob movie, it was revealed that the bikini bottom and the human world was separated by a lawless seabed, deadly trench filled with beasts and finally, the the part near the shoreline where human divers hunts sea creatures (the closer to the human world the more dangerous for sea creature it become). this act as a barrier to keep the citizens of the bikini bottom from finding out the truth.
