Maybe it's gotten better since the late 2000s when it was just dire

SpongeBob sadly suffers from grave Flanderization following the release of the movie, the main character of SpongeBob, instead of being a more naive and optimistic man with a child-like world view becomes just a fucking child, a singular aspect of what his character represented.

Avatar is easily better than Spongebob

well speaking of therapy i still need it for when Homer kills Flanders wife like wtf

 

[Shane]

The episodes don't take their time anymore with storytelling. The jokes used to actually mean something

 

[Zany Clowny]

imposter skinner doesn't bother me that much but having Homer not give a shit about Ned's dead wife was the nadir of the series for me

couldn’t even get into it myself. But I only ever tried once. Might give the show another go one day

 

[Shane]

Now it's like a fucking crackhead wrote the show where it's a joke a second and ridiculous facial expressions every second

 

[Barry Poppins]

The whole dynamic of the show for the most part was how SpongeBob's positive worldview clashed with Squidward's adult cynicism. Almost all of us have become Squidward when as kids we wanted to be Spongebob in some form or another. That's the crux of the series.

I never watched it as a kid. Two years ago I binged the entire series and it's legit one of the greatest cartoons of all time

crack writers guild will go on strike if this talk persists no cap 100%

 

[Shane]

If I was Squidward, I'd hate spongebob too lmao

 

[O-Blaze]

I wonder if SpongeBob slept with Sandy yet

 

[Barry Poppins]

Tbf, Squidward doesn't hate Spongebob, he just hates the fact that he's stuck in a dead-end place when he feels he is better than that, and worthy of something more.

that karate episode sort of implies it
