When I first saw the Jellyfish Jam episode it was really funny and thats how I started watching spongeBob.

I saw the Pilot the day it premeirded

I was trying to find something to watch in 2002 and I saw Procasination/I'm with stupid.

I started watching the first episode.

Back in 2000, I was flipping through the channels when I saw a wierd piece of cheese making "a million of me" (Sleepy Time).

in 1999-2000, i forgot what year, i saw an ad saying "spongbobs premire be there or be square" and i think it was ripped pants and bubblestand.

I started in either 1999 or 2000, with the episode Arrgh!/Rock Bottom. My top favorite show then was "The Angry Beavers". Man, I used to love that show!

When I first saw the commercial for it in 1999, I thougfht it was gonna be a stupid show. But I saw the bubblestand one a few weeks later and thought it was okay, then I saw the jellyfish jam episode and really got into it.

When I saw the commercial for Spongebob meeting Sandy. Then I kept watching it all the time, it was strange but addicting.

I watched it the day it premiered. I remember that day like yesterday. I remember the dhow was past my bed time so I only saw half of it and then I watched the re-run the next day and missed the half again because we had to go to a yard sale.

I started to watch SpongeBob in Armenia, when my cousin got new cable. The first episode was... I'll remember later... Probably Bubble Buddy or something... But I remember I liked it very much, cuz it was funny... It was like two years ago.

I saw the pilotm epi the day it premiered

I did see Help Wanted the first time it aired here (at least, the first time on free-to-air TV) but I didn't start watching until a couple of years later when the good episodes were on.

It was in 1999 not long after it first premeired. Anyway one day I left the channel on Nickelodeon. I eventually feel asleep then I started to here a clarinet (From Squidward) on TV then I whoke up and decide to watch the rest of that episode. That episode was "Bubble Stand" and I've been a fan ever since.

Well in 2000 I went to the hospital for my ears needed tubes and I saw SS on and I thought he was cheese! It was the one where Squidward gets hurt and Spongebob and Patrick bring him jellyfishing! When I saw it, When Patrick and spongebob went for the Jellyfishing nets it there mad faces, I thought they said: "We don`t believe you, We don`t believe you". LOL for that. I am laughing back at it! I seen every episode.

In 2000/2001 Spongebob did premier in Holland.
I thought it would be a stupid show but later i did watch Spongebob one time and i did like it and did become a fan.

I saw the commercial for it and decided to check it out, but I missed Help Wanted/Reef Blowers/Tea at The Treedome. . I saw Buublestand/Ripped Pants and really got into it, though. . I kept watching through its run. And quite ironnicly, around 2003 or 2004, my exact words were "SpongeBob could never have a movie!" but mere weeks later, I was surprised by the fact that there was a movie. It is still one of my favorites. Then, in early 2005, I was shocked when I saw a commercial that said SpongeBob was renewed for a new season, and I was very happy because with the way the movie turned out, I thought the story would end there. Now, I'm hoping there will be a Season 5. But, that's on a different thread.
