    Excellent show. Although the new episodes are no where near the metaphysical perfection that is the first season, they are still entertaining. I can proudly and accurately say that I've seen every episode.

    The only good show on Nickelodeon. The show debuted back in the 90s, when I was a kid, and I don't see it losing any of its steam. Spongebob forever!

    Um...JayZilla2830, I think you might br reviewing the wrong season. The sixth season is not nearly as good as the first three, but it still is an amazing show.

    One of the best TV shows on television! Teaches the values and lessons of life while giving a hilarious adventure. It's a show that will never be forgotten.

    Season 1 is my favorite season. The hilarity is top-notch and the characters are memorable: Spongebob, the silly yellow sponge; Patrick, the stupid buffoon; Squidward, the grumpy clarinet-playing squid; Mr. Krabs, the greedy and selfish crab; Sandy, the karate-loving squirrel; and Plankton, the failure of a villian.

    Spongebob is for everyone. Even though the title character may sound and look immature, he is the reason the show is so fun. That, and the great writing for the show.

    Season 1 is classic, but also my least favorite of the good seasons. I don't remember much of it, but I remember watching the episode "Ripped Pants" and becoming hooked as a kid, say, didn't Mr. Krabs warn me about hooks? Oh well.

    This show is one of those non creative things that don't usually pass your mind. Just saying its a show about under water creatures doesn't even describe a quarter of the genius that is happening. First of all its educational. Patrick is stupid because starfish don't have brains. Plankton is small because plankton are small. I think this show is one of the best Nickelodeon shows of allThis show is one of those non creative things that don't usually pass your mind.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think spongebob is a great children's TV show. The show is full of laughs, the characters are hilarious, the plots are getting better and better, and as the viewers grow out of it, new ones get into it. If you are an adult who has kids who enjoy spongebob, you probably enjoy it too, if not you may notice, a lot of it makes no sense. For example, in the episode were plankton controls spongebob's mind to try and get the krabby patty, spongebob walks through squidward's bedroom which is on the bottom floor, but in other episodes his bedroom is on the top floor. Despite a few events making no sense, i think spongebob is a great show for kids and adults to enjoy!… Expand

    I've always maintained that the first three seasons of Spongebob are some of the best comedy ever done, and some of the best animation ever done. The situations are silly and the characters are all highly lovable. There's a perfect amount of logical fallacies that just add to the nonsensical atmosphere(like lighting a fire underwater).

The situations are silly and the characters are all highly lovable. There's a perfect amount of logical fallacies that just add to the nonsensical atmosphere(like lighting a fire underwater). The mix between plot and jokes is wonderful in every episode. IMO, that's the change that made the biggest difference in the switch from Hillenberg to Tibbit. Now episodes are focused on creating a good plot, and then the jokes are lackluster or simply not present. Every single joke in Spongebob hits and hits hard. There's a lot of hidden humor for all ages(such as Spongebob telling Gary not to drop the soap). The animation is superb and the technical quality was pumped up for the second season. The voice acting is also incredible. The biggest strong point is the randomness. "She's so mysterious and majestic. Perhaps I should name her Mystery, or Majesty...or Debbie." And then when he attempts to befriend the seahorse, in one shot he has a mustache for absolutely no reason. There's also a lot of good cultural references and allegories. The most obvious one is the snowball fight episode, which is a reference to the Cold War.
    Great jokes, great characters, great situations, great voice acting, great animation. Seasons 1-3 of Spongebob is simply the best cartoon to ever grace television, even above the Simpsons, Looney Tunes, and Adventure Time    … Expand

    SpongeBob defines my childhood. I love everything about it. The new episodes aren't as good as ones from this season, but they are still much better than a lot of the crap that is on TV right now. Very original and very funny.

    I think most people agree that this show is not like it used to be when Stephen Hillenburg leff the show. Although the recent episodes are a bit stupid, I can't ignore the simply PHENOMENAL pre-2004 episodes like "Survival of the Idiots" and "Band Geeks." The acting is always done well although the recent writing has suffered tremendously.

    Spongebob Season 1 is Awesome. Some of my favorite episodes include Suds, Arrgh!, Fun, Pizza Delivery, and Naughty Nautical Neighbors. My favorite character of this season is Patrick. My favorite joke is the one where SpongeBob and Pat pretend Squidward is Reflecto.

    Do I even have to explain? Okay, seriously, this is my favorite cartoon so far. The jokes are some of the funniest jokes that I've heard in a TV show. Now, I know after Season 4, the show went downhill. Season 6 and 7 were pretty bad. But in Season 8, the show got better. Season 9 has been a pretty good season so far.

I will always remember Spongebob even when the show is off air. When that day comes, I will be devastated. I have a lot of good memories from watching Spongebob, and it is great.

    It's not easy to make an awesome show and keep it that way for nine long seasons, with a tenth one coming soon, Nickelodeon managed to pull it off, and because of that, it's by far the most popular show on the channel. Good job, keep it going with new episodes, Nick!!

    It doesn't matter how old you are, Spongebob can be enjoyed by anyone regardless of age. Kids love its cartoon feel, adults can chuckle at its adult humor hidden within the cleverly written lines.

    This show is just a **** classic. Still watch some of it on tv, season 7 right now on Prime if i get bored. Live in Germany and to see the comparison, the german synchro is way better. Normally i always prefer the original but not here

    I absolutely adored this show as a kid, and I still enjoy it now. It has a mix of childish humor and some mature humor that I of course never noticed as a kid. Spongebob should be shown to all of the future generations (Except the new ones -_-). 10/10 (Masterpiece)

    Ever since SpongeBob SquarePants was released on May 1st, 1999, the show had 3 great seasons to start with. Here's the first one... it's obviously great in the show's history.

    All this may not make sense on paper—or anywhere else—but creator Steve Hillenburg (schooled in marine biology as well as animation) has made it a continuing comic delight, wildly imaginative yet never too clever for its own good.
