the pain in tom's voice is heartwrenching

Speaking of voice, go to 1:23.

[@MrApexYT]

You can tell he really cared for Stephen. Really awesome to hear.

[@skinnyzachfilms]

Yeah. He knew the man for nearly 30 years.

[@HybridBlueDream]

@Neal Comstock that song always makes me cry lmao

[@TheDanVault]

I think there’s more pain in the interviewer’s voice…

[@kayaa5359]

Tom seems like such a genuinely kind and wonderful person, and I appreciate his genuine love for his characters It was touching to hear him talk about Stephen and hear his respect for the work he did Spongebob has had it's up and downs, but i watched the birthday bash episode for the first time and it was so touching to see a loving episode in honor of Stephen Hillenburg

[@candicehoneycutt4318]

Tom is an absolute gem of a person

[@transfo47]

That episode is excellent.

It reached the point where I felt I'd contributed a lot and what I wanted to say. At that point, the show needs a new blood. And as a writer, you have to move on. ~ Stephen Hillenburg

[@chloefaitharceo4073]

Thanks for building my childhood Stephen Hillenburg

[@stephanmckinnie8795]

So tell me how was your childhood was SpongeBob. Show me how you were. For me I just got respond Bob and I was 6 years old and I quickly became highly obsessed until I was ten.

[@joshuameek1489]

Started watching the show when I was 3 and I am 16 and still watch it.

[@darthzackb7575]

Terrific eulogy!

[@UnshornKeyboardist]

You can hear Spongebob's and Spyro's voice in Tom's voice.

[@chuxmecha6513]

@Ian Turner He's still playing Spyro. In the reignited trilogy he voiced him. However I don't know if it was for reenacting voice lines or they just used the same voice files.

[@LazyAlternativeBrat]

You can also hear The Ice King and Heffer Wolfe

[@parkerbob99]

Tom Kenny's voice and maturity but childlike happiness on things reminds me of the original spongebob when I was a kid. Now and days the writing doesn't even come close to the cleverness and great jokes that we made back in the OG seasons. I rewatch them all the time and I just turned 30. Thanks to Stephen my childhood was that much brighter and it still hasn't died ❤

[@FlashQuatsch]

He died on my 25th birthday, 25 wasn't funnier than 24 that day 😭 rest in peace Stephen.

David Ogden Stiers. Don’t forget David Ogden Stiers.

[@noboom7385]

Robby Osborne don't say famous. Hillenburg was always very private and was not even a celebrity. He said in an interview, "I like to draw and create things. I have no interest in being on camera or a celebrity. It's not that I don't like people but I just like having my privacy."

[@animefan2454]

He's in a better place having a Krabby Patty.

[@noboom7385]

Or a Hillen-burger.

[@Rjw42]

When Stephen Hillenburg die a cry I miss him so much but good he made SpongeBob Squarepants and it’s still the best show until this day but we will miss you and thank you for making SpongeBob SquarePants rest and peace thank you so me and we ❤️

Family Guy has become a parody of itself. I don't think it's going to stand as well as the other 3

[@Opa_Joke]

I remember comming from school and feeling tired when sitting on the couch and then turning on the tv and watching spongebob made me feel so relaxed. It made the room feel cool and stopped my back from hurting just seeing the intro of the show.

it was very sad to see a very great man Stephen Hillenburg leave this earth he was loved by all his fans, family and coworkers truly a great legend and best of all time rest in peace Stephen Hillenburg and thank you for creating spongebob it helped me get through my childhood you will always be a man of legend
