Critical Reception

The show received negative reviews upon its first airing. 70s gave the show an F, stating that: "The episodes are extremely short. If these were actually broadcast, they would be less than five minutes long, if that. That is something you really want to avoid while crafting spin-offs. Another problem is that there is no emotion, and no character development. Just fighting."

tvguy stated: "Look...you have AWESOME ideas and TS eps are action packed but just work on the structure on your writing. Grammar errors plague your eps and the eps would be around five minutes if they are actually aired. The only eps that CAN be short are if they're summary-type spin-offs. But yours in dialog driven. But if your writing can be better, your spin off will be better." Over time the show was received better by critics who say its improved.The show is the fourth spinoff in history to receive over 1000 views.

Since the Sixth season, critics have been more positive to the show, praising it for it's longevity, engaging storylines, and well written episodes.

On February 21st, 2012, Clappy rated the show a C+, saying "The improvement this spin-off has made in the latter three seasons has been great. I mean there is still some mechanic flaws every now and then, but it is noticeable that teenj has moved this spin-off into the right direction." During the June 2012 Golden Community Awards, Team SpongeBob was nominated by tvguy for Best Finale, for Season 6's finale "Chaotic". Wumbology also stated that he liked how teenj12 handled the SpongeBob/Sandy/Patrick triangle in "Shocking".
