We Watched Spongebob Episode 1 and 2 For The FIRST TIME

[@nateroo1486]

The reason Goo Lagoon has an ocean underwater is because it's based on a brine pool, which is basically when water with higher concentrations of salt and other minerals and is heavy enough to separate from the rest of the water in a lake. The reason why the fish can't breathe in it is kind of a kid friendly way to show how, when fish swim through a brine pool, they usually get overloaded with salt and have a seizure and die if they're in there too long. Some fish are able to live in there but they're few and far between, and fish that hunt in the brine pools have a resistance to the high concentrations but usually can't be in there long either. So the idea of the fish drowning in the water underwater isn't entirely true, but it's based on a natural phenomenon. Stephen Hillenburg (Spongebob's creator) was a marine biologist and he inserted a lot of those little facts and quirks about sea life and biomes in the cartoon, which I think is really cool. The more you know!

[@MW-bs1nb]

yeah R.I.P. stephen hillenburg... nowadays in the new episodes you see pearl wearing a water helmet in sandy's home ..a WHALE

[@greenknightofwar7024]

So reverse SpongeBobs first visit. Instead of suffocating she’s drowning herself. Great

[@LycanFerret]

​@@MW-bs1nb I saw that and was very confused, because whales and manatees both need air. Pearl should only need a water suit to prevent being crushed.

[@brandonlyon730]

I assume it’s just to remain moist and not dry up from the lack of water. Also it’s not like breathing air was ever a factor with Pearl, she remains underwater 24/7 without needing to swim up for air.

[@MW-bs1nb]

@@brandonlyon730 still makes no sense, as the comment before you said, she'd just need a water suit to prevent being crushed ..pearl doesn't have much screen time and you know whales can take a long time without air, so you technically don't know if she's getting fresh air off screen, but seeing her in sandy's home with a water helmet is just plain stupid lol

The beginning of one the most legendary cartoons of all time… Regardless of your stance on episodes post Seasons 4 and 5, and even with Nickelodeon’s poor marketing due to streaming destroying cable, you have to commend how long they’ve managed to keep the show alive (whether for better or worse). The most recent episode titled “Friendaversary” had Squidward recreating scenes from Seasons 1, 2, and 3 - like the salmon suit from “Dying for Pie” and wearing/doing the things that attract a sea bear from “The Camping Episode” - to bring back SpongeBob’s memory of him. It shows that the animators and staff still hold the show in high regard due to the most iconic moments of the earlier seasons.

[@DrSuperLuigiSeth1]

That’s easily the nicest thing Squidward has done in years.

[@MrWhatdafuBOOM]

Goo Lagoon makes more sense if you know about brine pools. That's a part deep in the ocean where the salt in the water is more concentrated and behaves like a thicker liquid underwater. Although fish usually try to avoid going into them because they could suffer a toxic shock from all that salt.

[@SuperSavajin]

[@Perid0tStar]

@@Xeroforte I solved the mystery-- the song was put on the soundtrack of some scary movies, but the movie-soundtrack version has a kind of low resonance in the background like an air conditioner, which is meant to make it sound spooky (but just sounds annoying). When you listen to the normal, real version without that silly audio trick, its just nice, happy music again.

Mr. Krabs (Clancy Brown) is also the main Captain in Shawshank that holds Andy off the side of the building and he plays Hank in Detroit Become Human (game).

Edit: I know this is very confusing for a lot of people, but the ocean it self is able to create very concentrated (typically salt) rivers and lakes within the ocean itself. Normally they can be very dangerous for sea creatures but I believe that some species can live inside these. I also believe there are some that are safe for fish to swim through itself. It's really a great introduction to marine biology with Stephen Hillenberg being a marine biologist himself. The subtlety of the natural ocean life mixed with the created cartoon world is great. Easiest example is that Anchovies hunt and live in massive groups for protection which is why there's always so many of them. There's also scenes where SpongeBob can multiply out of nowhere and that's naturally how some sponges do reproduce. It's really fun as an adult to re watch this show and be able to apply all the animal science I've learned to it currently.
