What has happened to SpongeBob?

Is Nick going downhill with this show?

    I feel that The Fairly OddParents hasn't fallen downhill. Sure there has been a couple of bad episodes in season eight but it hasn't fallen downhill in main opinion! Well, not majorly. SpongeBob has fallen downhill majorly as you can see.

    Actually FOP is in season 7. And in my opinion I think FOP and SB gets funnier every season! True, little kids could get grossed out by some parts, like Cosmo as pregnant, but it's still funny, and that's like all they wanted, people to laugh at their shows!

    If kids actually like gross and sometimes even nasty stuff like that in FOP and SB that proves how messed up this world has gotten.

    If not only gross-you-out cartoons with less quality along with the crappiest live-action shows (with also very low quality) is the way of the future then we all might as well sell our TV's right now.

    And then save all of the good old day episodes of cartoons and good live-action shows by taping them so we can watch tapes of episodes instead and accept offers of great cartoons or live-action TV shows if they're released on DVD and Blu-Ray.

    Oops since you need a TV to watch the tapes then i meant still keep your TV's for what i said above.

    If this keeps up all I'm saying is we might end up not watching regular old TV anymore. Sure i may be exaggerating to most of you now but just think certain TV stations could end up premiering even more mega crappy live-action shows and the cheesiest/gippiest of cartoons with things messed up in 'em. So if that's the case that's why i said what i said at the beginning of this quote.

    I certainly don't think i'll be watching it, as seeing only the previews has me thinking this about the movie: What the heck is this? Who wears short-shorts? Oh my god what a weird song, the movie just looks kind of boring, and also MEGA corny.

    If Nick is trying to imitate Disney with this moive, it looks like they're gonna fail this time.

    I think about the only truly great show Nick has that isn't canceled that Nick will get in a while is iCarly, but wth? I'm even seeing some negative reviews about that show! Sheesh, and i could think of FAR more worse and cheesey live-action shows than that one like WOWP and The show with the overhyped singer with the blode wig, you should know who i'm talking about. Even worse garbage would be OoJH! So i don't know why some users are starting to attack iCarly so often when there's clearly so much worse live-action shows out there. Who knows, maybe they got nothing better to do because they already got bored bashing the other cruddy live-action shows.
    Also has anyone seen the quite recent new cartoon: The Mighty B!? Another show that is disliked by many.

    Look, the thing is that it's just a manner of opinnion, every single person has a different point of view, examples? Nearly everybody hated Atlantis Squarepantis, I LOVED it, it went directly to my top 10 episodes, I loved the singing and the jokes, but WTH, that's JellyFishJammer's opinnion not evrybody needs to like the same things! People will ALWAYS bash against other shows that you love, that's just the way it is. So please let's move on and stop stressing over this situation, please?

    I can't say anything bad about this show because I only watch it occasionally.

    Actually, sorry guys I also find myself beginning to go overboard here.

    Well hey everyone makes mistakes, and today, well, i was in a grumpy mood and seeing a lot of things negatively.

    TV isn't all that bad, and different people liking different things is a fact of life.

    But what i'm talking about is numbers, the majority of people (like me) just wish SpongeBob could get better, and a lot of us also find a lot of the seasons 4-6 episodes garbage. So right now i'm just hoping WhatBob Whatpants is a good special. I've seen the advertisements and it doesn't look all that bad in the previews.

    I thought you haven't seen Rise and Shine. Although I do agree those are some good examples of season 5.


    I got the Friend Or Foe DVD yesterday.

    I envy you people (no offense.) I must be the only teen on the planet who does NOT have the freedom to watch what she wants! I may just watch the new special and forget what everyone says it airs.

    I think everyone can agree with this thread. Spongebob has gone WAY downhill.

    I actually like the song but I agree the idea is weird. Let's face it: both Nick and Disney should stick to what they're good at: Disney should stick to live action, and Nick should stick to cartoons. They shouldn't try to imitate each other.

    Well i said in my review that rest in peace SpongeBob, what I meant was the original Spongebob back in his glory days of 1999-2004.

    So what I'm trying to say is that I will always like the square dude because he became so famous and was great in the earlier seasons, but to me (from 2005-present) he's changed along witht he rest of the characters, that's how much destruction to the show these writers have caused.

    So like another thing I said in my review is that it is unfortunate to what the writers have done to him because seasons 1-3 SpongeBob was so funny and cool along with he rest of the characters, and to me that was the true SpongeBob. But now look it, I just can't bear to watch some of the episodes on this show now anymore. The writers went WAY too overboard with some things, and one of these includes the changes to the characters(known as out of character.)

    Also his voice has gotten squeakier, what's up with that? Some people (like me) can also find that annoying.
