The show follows the life of a couple. of friends from Bikini Bottom with SpongeBob himself behind the wheel as the gang gets into all kinds of trouble on their wild escapades, the biggest trouble they get into is the off-screen fans and critics of the show have noted that, Although the show is aimed at children there is a lot of adult humor that is far from age appropriate.

in the show and explain where the animators went wrong. It was released in 1999. SpongeBob SquarePants has become a pop culture phenomenon and has been named the highest-rated animated children's show with millions of viewers each month, while SpongeBob's target audience, his children Ages 6 to 11, there are a lot of jokes that are definitely not age appropriate after re-watching some of the episodes we're on. baffled that some of them have been greenlit the first topic we'll review that surfaces are often euphemisms for anatomy, you might remember the scene where SpongeBob was buried under the sand, except for his nose sticking out when Mr.

Krabs He approached him, he said he hoped it would be like that. his nose suggests he might be having too much fun in the sun, while this scene may not make sense to a young audience, the suggestion is not lost on us, see for yourself Nickelodeon, see you around, the next episode under inspection is called Gary Takes a bathroom In the second season, SpongeBob tries to convince his pet snail to wash himself, but encounters a lot of resistance. He tries various methods to get Gary into the bathtub, such as throwing a ball into the bathtub, strapping a bomb to himself, and telling Gary that if he doesn't get in, it will explode in a moment.

SpongeBob gives Gary a bar of soap and tells him to get down. Quick for those of you who don't know, this could be referencing a joke about prison life that we won't explain in detail. Here, if you are interested, ask a trusted friend. Because of this moment, the episode was banned in the UK and Australia and almost banned in the US. Just so you know it's serious business, the next episode in question is called Sailor's Mouth from Season 2, in it ,

and patrick, this is mr. Crabs who use a bad word, don't worry, the sound of a dolphin plays and they are captivated by it.

The two friends then proceeded to use the word with complete reckless abandon and terrified the bikini bottom with their new vocabulary when this episode aired. a group called The Parents Television Council was not happy when they made a report stating that the show marketed to children by using profanity and their eyes lampooning profanity were no laughing matter and they wanted to shut it down, even though the episode was aired in 2001. Its official report in 2005, interestingly, before this incident, the PTC had called SpongeBob SquarePants one of the best children's television shows to air. They seem to have changed their tune in 2005.

NBC News ran a story titled TV Ads Contribute to Childhood Obesity and argued that SpongeBob. Part of the problem they discussed was that the friendly yellow sponge was being combined with junk food that was predominantly high in calories and low in nutrients, a type of diet that reassures children's long-term health. Imagine a child going shopping with their guardian and seeing their old friends SpongeBob SquarePants in a box of pop tart is already attractive on its own, but once you combine it with a child's favorite cartoon it becomes even more attractive. The report called on Congress to confront advertisers for being so manipulative and advocacy groups. made plans to sue the production company for their unethical behavior, although there have been no big wins that we have heard of, we are happy to see that the minions are being marketed with bananas, now it is baby steps, the following example is a joke recurring that worries SpongeBob's television in multiple episodes SpongeBob serves through channels while Gary is in the other room when he is alone SpongeBob is on a very interesting channel what is shown on the screen are some very beautiful sea corals and somehow sensual swaying to the music Spongebob watches intently his eyes are wide as he watches and he is clearly hypnotized when Gary panics and quickly changes the channel to sports what we can infer from this exchange is that he that SpongeBob was watching was not rated, he is very tired and Take it as a mistake, but what the animators are implying is that he was watching adult television.

Okay, we admit this isn't exactly a

message, but we thought the following fact was worth mentioning. Did you know that it wasn't SpongeBob SquarePants? was always called SpongeBob, he originally had a completely different name, we could have fallen in love with someone named, wait for it, SpongeBob, forget Spider-Man or Batman, SpongeBoy really would have saved the day when everything was ready to go when the creators realized that it had been taken over by a cleaning company, voice actor Tom Kenny was the one who actually paired SpongeBob SquarePants and SquarePants and since then it stayed Stephen Hillenburg, from the show's creator, especially liked it because the People would no longer think he was a piece of cheese that was found at the bottom of the ocean, SpongeBob was born and thank goodness for that, as we learned, not all parents are interested in SpongeBob, but it seems there is more to it than That in 2011, a study was conducted by the University. from Virginia who claimed that SpongeBob is actually playing with children's memory retention.

His study was like this. They had one group of four-year-olds watch SpongeBob SquarePants for nine minutes and another group draw, and immediately afterward they asked both groups to solve problems. and behavioral tests, the children who were drawing had no notable abnormalities, but the children who watched SpongeBob SquarePants had problems on their tests apparently because the camera cuts so quickly and so frequently that it causes young children to have worse attention spans. , lead researcher and psychology professor Angeline Lillard. She suggested that children may be identifying with the unfocused characters and adopting their characteristics themselves. You definitely don't want your child to imitate Patrick.

Now we would like to draw your attention to a scene where Spongebob is inflating balloons first of all, these are not just any balloons, they are not colorful nor do they have birthday

, rather they are relatively colorless and very long in the process of inflating the balloon. balloon, are starting to look more familiar to an adult audience, most adults watching this issue could tell that what they are seeing is something destined for an adult bedroom and not the mouth of a sea sponge, while this could be a commentary on how all our human trash eventually ends up in the ocean that we think is actually just a Dirty Joke that was authorized by the censorship police.

If you are a North American SpongeBob SquarePants fan, chances are you have seen the scenes we are about to discuss if you are from the UK, however, you never had the chance to see some of the scenes. Due to an alleged inappropriate deviation in the episode Life of Crime, the phrase getting nailed was understandably cut and in karate choppers a bit when Sandy Cheeks cut a fish between her legs it didn't even make it past the storyboards, although it's definitely impressive, we agree in that moment. It was definitely unnecessary, unfortunately, where Patrick and SpongeBob hold hands and cooking games, some countries decided that the display of physical affection between men was not allowed and the icing on the cake that has to do with the episode was cut. scary where

gets his shaved face was really necessary, did we need to see his brain exposed?

Give us your answers in the comments. We are very interested to hear what you have to say about it. Let's go back to the people who disagree with Patrick and SpongeBob. For a minute, many claims have been made that SpongeBob is gay and because of all the unfortunate homophobia that is sweeping the nation, many people challenged creator Hillenburg to talk about his characters' sexuality. In 2005, an evangelical group went so far as to boycott it. Spongebob for being gay and added even more fire to the growing flame. Finally, Hillenburg was forced to make a statement and decided to tell fans that he saw his characters as somewhat asexual, and Tom Kenny, SpongeBob's voice actor, spoke out in an interview.

Since he saw that SpongeBob is being naive and married to his job, all we have to say is that if that's the case, he would make a wonderful husband making the best krabby patty Bikini Bottom has to offer. Next, we will watch the episode. SpongeBob, you're fired. This was one of the most controversial episodes because it showed SpongeBob losing his job and receiving unemployment benefits, sparking a conversation about whether the show was being critical or supportive of welfare users, while SpongeBob is gutted afterward. to leave the Krusty Krab Patrick. shows you a whole new world of being unemployed that includes receiving free food and having enough time to play.

Fox News said the episode was a warning about the dangers of welfare abuse. They were quick to mock those on welfare and thought the episode was aligned. with his beliefs, MSNBC's Al Sharpton had something different to say, he spoke out and defended those on welfare and was very much the counterattack. The fact that SpongeBob SquarePants can provoke serious debates in the media deserves a round of applause in 2009. Burger King had the It's a fabulous idea to team up with SpongeBob SquarePants and create a parody of Sir Mix-a-lot's Baby Recovered, as the song is dedicated to the appreciation of women's bodies, focusing on some places more than others.

People thought it was a little strange that a child icon was linked to the message, as you can probably guess, there was a bit of an uproar and even people protesting that the ad was sexist and inappropriately sexual, while the slogan was tame. I like square butts and I can't lie. People still didn't have it. You're a fan of the TV show, folks, you might remember Ross singing this same song to his young daughter Emma to make her laugh, what do you think is worse? Feel free to start a totally passionate debate in the comments below, there are a few lines. the characters say they subtly hint at mature content, but they aren't too clear, for example during the episode where the Krusty Krab suddenly goes dark.

Krabs is confused and thinks his eyes are failing, in response Squidward says no, sir. Crabs, it's just that time of the month, anyone who has a uterus or anyone who has interacted with someone with a uterus is probably as familiar with this phrase, the icing on the cake is that after he says the line, he points to a giant red blimp in the sky looming over the Krusty Krab, it's not hard to deduce that they may be joking about a woman's period, let's talk about the SpongeBob SquarePants drama after season 3 creator Stephen Hillenburg proposed ending the show and making a feature film also while the movie was being made and the fans were satisfied Nickelodeon decided to make more episodes, they allowed the show to continue but changed the team completely Hillenburg left the writing staff and Paul Tibbitt took his place apparently things in the office were tense there was a war between the story boundaries versus the animators and many people were complaining that they weren't being compensated enough for their hard work, apparently almost everyone was replaced including the writers, animators and directors as you can probably Imagine, the tone of the show was completely different and the tension definitely shows as fans of the show, we can attest.

For a different vibe, watch an episode from season 1 and season 4 back to back and you'll see what we're talking about. This next segment will blow your mind. As you know, characters sometimes go through about a billion iterations before. the creators and animators decide the final look and personality. We all know Patrick as the lovable, down-to-earth starfish who has little common sense but he's a fierce friend, he's cheerful and sweet and he seems very approachable and easy to hug when Helen Berg was storyboarding the pilot. however, Patrick couldn't have been more different. He was written to have great resentment because in additionIt was pink.

He was supposed to have a roadside bomb and was described as a thug. Can you imagine how much that would have changed? of the show we're so glad they decided to throw that idea out the window and give us the Patrick we know and love, how close is the Spongebob theme song, it's so catchy and so deeply annoying to listen to that we'd say it's one of the largest earworms known to mankind and it's almost impossible to get it out of your head in song. It refers to an island that the creators called Bikini Atoll, as it turns out that this unassuming island with a modest three palm trees is quite dark looking.

Nickelodeon's official synopsis and writers have confirmed that beneath Bikini Atoll is a confirmed atomic testing site After World War II, the UN made the US govern multiple islands in the North Pacific, including Bikini Atoll , there they tested and developed advances in nuclear weapons technology and detonated 67 nuclear weapons on these islands, so taken together, it means that it is more than likely that all of our colorful friends are living on the same one at the time the nuclear bomb exploded. bomb, let's go back to Patrick for a moment, he is more than just SpongeBob's sidekick and is an integral part of the show, but like SpongeBob, he also has his share of inappropriate jokes.

A scene that we analyze for the second time is when he builds a kind of sand sculpture in a moment of boredom, the problem is that what he makes is a rather suggestive shape, the worst thing is that after he acquires this phallic shape, Patrick begins to Lick her from top to bottom, she might as well be done. Being an innocent moment, he squirms and wonders what the animators were thinking. Our future advice to them is perhaps to simply stay away from the suggested look. There was a Nickelodeon special released in 2005 called The Endless Summer, which caused quite a stir.

Sir. Krabs is planning how to make more money and decides that causing global warming will be just the ticket by pumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. He creates warm temperatures year-round, allowing his restaurant to flourish. His pool can remain open and customers are very satisfied. Obviously, things get out of control Bikini Bottom becomes a burning wasteland and everyone decides to move north because the weather is too hot and the pool water completely evaporates six years after the short film's release Fox Caught with him and stated that he was pushing a liberal agenda with the wildfires in California and the recent UN report stating that 1 million species are in danger of extinction, we hope that this episode does not take place in real life and encourages viewers to learn about what they can do to help our planet a lot.

SpongeBob's funniest moments are very random and have nothing to do with the actual plot of the episode. Characters often find themselves in crazy situations and must endure a comedy of errors to find their way out. Our favorite example is when Patrick and SpongeBob break up. wet and naked inside the Krusty Krab when Mr. Krabs walks in SpongeBob SquarePants is giving Patrick some money and stay, this is not what it seems, well it's a fun moment that makes the kids question the meaning behind that phrase. We wouldn't be surprised if while watching this episode many children ask their Guardians what it looks like and we feel sorry for those who had to clumsily explain.

Well, we may be a little late to the game, but did you know that the Krusty Krab is actually a lobster trap? Sorry if this is old news, but we're still kicking around. If you're actually hearing this for the first time, join us in having a collective lightbulb go off at the moment, okay, let's break it down so that mr. Krab is using a lobster trap as a family-style fast food restaurant, which is a lot of fun and also dark, but the plot thickens, remember how that Chum Bucket plankton is always after Mr. Crab's secret ingredient, well, fans have given us plenty of theories and we'd like you to weigh in on the crab imitation episode.

We see an official image of the Krabby Patties recipe while we later discover in the episode friend of the enemy that it uses. dust of King Neptune, but fans suggest that he originally used an imitation crab that reels in crab cannibalism. SpongeBob is a strange guy in every way, he is always random and we often find ourselves thinking about why the animators made him such a genuine nutcase and what choices they made. doing it this way, one moment in question is SpongeBob's obsession with wearing underwear on his head. You're a long-time fan of the show. You'll know it's not just a one-time joke, it literally happens all the time, well it's a sure way to make kids laugh, they go further when the underwear covers their nose and sticks out in a suggestive way if you think this is harmless , think about the many other ways they could have drawn this, for example he didn't have to cover his nose to get the joke could have covered his eyes, but now they made the very real decision to make it look good, you know, Let's take a look at the Krusty Dogs episode first.

The title alone is disgusting, but we'll leave it aside for now. and SpongeBob makes a Krabby Patty with the leftover Krabby Patty meat and presents it to his boss, Mr. Mr. Krabs asked SpongeBob to make it with the leftover meat and SpongeBob forces him to make sure everything goes well until Mr. Krabs removes the Krabby Patties from the menu, causing a lot of panic on SpongeBob and Squidward's part. Those are real die-hard Krabby Patty fans. They are outraged that Krusty the dog has taken over them. The two team up to think of ways to get the Krabby Patty.

Patty in a conversation, SpongeBob tells Squidward that they have to have stronger tactics to which Squidward responds something that will make Mr. The whole Wiener Krabs thing blow up in his face, conjures up a great image, although there is a lot of love Between all the characters and SpongeBob, we never have any real love interests, as we learned that the creators saw them as asexual beings and described SpongeBob and Patrick as bikini-clad bachelors in the episode rockabye bivalve, however, things get serious , the two friends discover a baby scallop and decide to raise it themselves while arguing who will be the mother and who will be the father when two fish see them. kids, a thought bubble appears that says sponge plus star equals clam, which essentially means that you thought Patrick and SpongeBob created the clam themselves because people don't even like friends holding hands.

You can imagine some narrow-minded people didn't like it. The idea that these two men could father a child, much less create one. We think they make a beautiful family. We would have really liked to see how this child would have grown up with these two parents in season 1 episode 2, Sandy tells SpongeBob and Patrick. who is very homesick for her home, Texas, being a squirrel, it makes sense to feel bad for her, the boys come up with a sweet little plan to throw a Texas themed party for her at the Krusty Krab, while this episode is all fun and games, a tour is needed in the middle while discussing how to cheer up Sandy Patrick suggests they bring Texas under the sea Spongebob and then replies Patrick you can't just that's it Patrick witty is showing tone Patrick replies that while covering his pants is just a quick moment and it's not that offensive, but it's still very adult in nature.

Last but not least, we have a classic episode with just one bite. Squidward expresses his dislike for Krabby Patties. SpongeBob, of course, is surprised and urges Squidward to try one that says the only people who don't do it. He's not like a Krabby Patty, he's never tried a squidward he resists, but he finally secretly tries one and finds he loves it. This love story escalates and ends up breaking into the Krusty Krab late at night to try to get the already prepared ones in the Vault. In the original version of the episode, the restaurant's security system causes two explosions, this ended up being too much. violent and Nickelodeon had to censor it now, when it aired, either both explosions are caught or one of them is the one that no one associated with the show talked about.

Why did you decide to change the episode? There is talk that because the episode aired a month after 9/11, they thought it was insensitive in Canada. However, they have the original version.
