No, I think we are getting older. We are teens, turning into adults soon. We are agiging, getting smarter, and watching more adult themed shows like The Big Bang Theory, Goarge Lopez, and The Simpsons. SB like many other cartoons like the FOP might be going downhill for some of us, but part of the reason is, we're not kids anymore. So we kind of bash these shows because it's childish to us. The shows just aren;t what they'll used to since we're teens/adults now. This is just my opinion why I think fans on this site bash FOP, SB, and more wonderful cartoons. They may be stale to us now, but think of the kids that we used to be. That's the point I try to make to bashers, we're not kids anymore, We're growing up, and that's life taking it's cource.

I mostly agree

Same here, but I'm 15 and I still laugh at Season 1- 3 episodes of Spongebob all the time. Even with some of the later episodes. It's not good to say things like that as if it's some kind of universal law that apllies to everyone.

Boolia......WHAT?! Do you not get SpongeBob at all? SpongeBob is an adult, but he will always be a kid! Same with Patrick and even Sandy. And I will always be a kid no matter how 'old' I get! I what you may consider an 'adult' but who cares?! How are George Lopez, Simpsons, and The Big Bang Theory so much more adult themed? Little kids watch those shows (although I don't think they really should watch some...Simpsons can be pretty stupid). 25% of SpongeBob's audience are adults who don't even have kids! And ''Getting smarter''?! o_O Most people seem to get stupider as they 'grow up', and kids are NOT stupid! I was thinking about the origin of black holes when I was 7, and I'm not alone! Many kids get stuff that grown-ups don't seem to ever get! How would watching those shows mean that you're smarter? If you ask me, watching shows that have cussing, x-rated intuendos, and such just means you're stupid (and the Simpsons DEFINATLY has that, as well as most supposed 'adult' shows, that even little kids watch and learn stupid stuff from). People who watch SpongeBob and think it's stupid, gay or babish...I feel sorry for them.

I really wish more people could be like SpongeBob. Even if you're an 'adult' it doesn't mean you have to be a 'grown-up'. All the fun, happy people I know are still kids or kids at heart, and all the angry people I know are %100 grown up and boring.

Please lighten up your guys! Sure, there may not be as many exceptionally amazing episodes, but does that mean you have to be constantly debating it? Just enjoy the show, and if you protest it so much, get a job at Nick, and maybe you can help write some really amazing episodes, if you know that much about story structure, storyboarding, etc.

SpongeBob ISN'T the only good show on Nick though...sure, the BEST, but not the only one worth watching. Being a writer and cartoonist myself, I get a lot of inspiration from other shows, and learn a lot from them too.
