Do ppl still love spongebob?

Q. PPl say it suks now D:

does it? cuz i still like it


Answer
Yes they do.

I remember the first time I saw Spongebob over ten years ago in fact. I was recuperating in the hospital after one of my 3 failed spine surgeries. I was channel surfing and since I have always loved cartoons (well, most of them anyway) paused on the show because I'd never seen anything like it before. I was 45 years old THEN, 55 now and like John Lennon (who would have been 80 a couple of days ago) loves well produced cartoons. Remember the Beatles' cartoon movie, "Yellow Submarine"? NO? Then go rent/buy it, it is really a good one and if it weren't for John, would never have happened. True story.

I'll admit, at first I thought it wasn't going to last for long. However, there was something about it that kept me coming back to it on a daily basis. I first noticed that it had the usual goofy/silly humor that kids under 10 could/would understand and humor that kids that age and teenagers even would be "over their heads" just because of their age. Plus, during the first 5 or so years, the show actually stuck to real facts about sea creatures in ways that no one else did. Of course, later I found out that the creator of the show was an actual Marine Biologist and had scribbled a really rough draft of what was to be "Spongebob" on a cocktail napkin in the restaurant he was in. Thank goodness it didn't stick because he was butt ugly on that thing! they showed it on their 10th Anniversary show.

Even the creator never expected Spongebob to last this long and to be honest, not all of the individual cartoons meet that high standard of the first 8 years, but thankfully, those are few and far between and as long as the writing stays of high quality as it is and they keep doing what they have with the humor, it could go on until the makers of it get tired of it. From what I saw on the anniversary show though, that doesn't look like it's gonna happen any time soon. They have some genuine FUN making those cartoons. And I mean the kind of fun that cartoonists couldn't get away with at Warner Bros. or any of those other cartoon factories.

They say that "Captain" named "Patchy", you know, the one with that stupid puppet parrot is the number one fan....I beg to differ. I've got grocery bags full of Spongebob stuff. Everything from toys to play with in the bathtub to beach kits to all sorts of stuffed likenesses of him and of course I always have a Spongebob calendar every year.

Long live the funny little guy!

BTW, did you know why Patrick, the starfish, acts so dumb and stupid? Because in reality, starfish do NOT have a brain! Seriously. If you don't believe me, look it up. Makes you wonder how they manage to simply "live", doesn't it?
