2018 was a big year for Tom Kenny with so many emotional moments. Returning as Spyro the Dragon in the remastered game was a nostalgic treat for fans. And paying tribute to the late Stephen Hillenburg as the voice of SpongeBob SquarePants was a heartfelt and meaningful gesture. Saying goodbye to Adventure Time as the voice of the Ice King must have been bittersweet. Tom Kenny's talent and versatility truly shine in all these roles, leaving a lasting impact on fans everywhere. What a remarkable year for him! 🐉🍍🧊

Not to mention the rise in quality that spongebob had in that year. Thanks to Hillenburg's return after the second movie.

Tom Kenny is a member of SAG, but when the WGA tried to unionize Nickelodeon animation studios in 2000 - Stephen Hillenberg refused to sign up - denying his writers and storyboard artists better pay and health care - as did creative director Derek Drymon - He is no liberal icon - more like a classic union buster a la Walt Disney - to this day animation is not covered by the WGA - that is legacy as well
