What is your favorite SpongeBob memory? 🧽
Mi favorite memory is spongBob vs the burger machine
I remember on my USB storage device for my 360, there was a media player/video app thingy, and I remember on it there was Seasons 1 - 8 of Spongebob and every night I would just watch some Spongebob episodes, but my favorite episode and even to this day it was always the Christmas Season 2 special, don't know why I just think it's perfect.
when i turned on the tv at 8 in the morning and it was on
Watching it
The first SpongeBob Movie of course!!

Hi
LS fans, move in!
Hi LS Mark!!
Bro I cried watching this, wow. I came in expecting a spongebob review and was given the words I really needed to hear in my life right now. Thank you, bro. Can’t wait for more videos on this channel
Growing up on the coast of Maine, I loved how accurate some of the designs of the show were, like the Krusty Krab being a lobster trap etc. And apparently Hillenburg spent summers here working at a restaurant (I wish I knew which one)
the Islesford Dock restaurant
I had a feeling that this intro would start with "Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?" 😂
After watching this video, This feels like an absolute love letter to the legacy of SpongeBob SquarePants. 👑
And you did a really good job explaining it in this video Riccardo.👏
I remember I used to watch so many episodes of Spongebob Squarepants and I always found them entertaining and enjoyable
Listening to Ocean Man at the end of the movie was a magical moment for me,
Ocean Man
Take me by the hand
Take me to the land!
SpongeBob means so much to me I can't even really articulate it in words. This yellow sponge encompassed at least a quarter of my childhood. The show, movies, games, merchandise, all of it. It's one of those things as a child that brought me just sheer 100% happiness when being a kid at school was rough. Hillenburg built my passion for animation and it what led me to a career in animation. I want to make something that makes some other kid feel how SpongeBob made me feel. It made me want to tell good stories, spread good vibes and pass on the torch in a sense. Whether or not I do is up to fate, but if it weren't for the little square dude I'd be someone completely different. SpongeBob changed my life. And You capture that so well with this video. He changed all of us and taught us to live happy.
This video just ascended to the Pantheon of the all time best yt content. Spongebob is my favorite piece of media. Since the age of 3 this yellow sponge has been an integral part of my life. Spongebob is the only piece of entertainment where it feels like I'm watching my best friends having fun. This feeling has been a conundrum for me, but now thanks to you. I'm starting to see that I'm not the only one who shares that sentiment. Keep on going. Your the goat man.
This is a great video, as stupid and crazy as it sounds, during my time with depression, Spongebob helped me a lot. It made me feel a lot happier than I would have been without it. Thank you Steven.
I can still remember watching the premier of the first episode. Even though that makes me feel super old, I'm also happy I got to watch so many og episodes back when they premiered. My tiny mind lost its shit during episodes like the pizza delivery and band episodes. A true legendary cartoon lol
SpongeBob is pretty much a popular franchise worldwide and yeah i remember it watching this show too
Love your writingggg, honestly Ive loved every season the show have given, even with some stinkers any season its a fun time, this is one of the few shows I can turn on and watch with literally anyone and have a fun time
One of the earliest memories I have of Spongebob was having a Spongebob birthday cake for my 5th birthday in 2004. I still have a picture of it somewhere in my house.
4:22 You forgot to put The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie (2004) an absolute masterpiece of cinema
his episode where he gets drunk on Ice Cream was sooooo me back in 2018 lol
that was the first movie lol
0:34 Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Homer Simpson, Jesus Chri-
Spongebob is one of my favorite franchise in fact its 2nd place (sonic 1st place) But Spongebob is really amazing and funny and I will always love it
Nobody in my family except for my cousin gets my SpongeBob references.
So apparently I just discovered this a few days ago, but there are apparently a series of comic books and graphic novels made and produced by Stephen Hillenberg that are not nickelodeon labeled. From what I was able to tell, Hillenberg owned Spongebob, but Nickelodeon allowed only certain creative freedom when making episodes for the TV show.
Lemme tell you that the comics, though they still are Spongebob and in its core its the same franchise, are shockingly different due to how creative Hillenberg, the writers, and the artists go with the comics. Like, they do social commentary on a lot of political, cultural, and environmental issues. Stuff that, if it were made into animated episodes, the show would be viewed completely different to what it is.
And its AMAZING!!! And I love it!! And I can't believe no one is talking about them because they're so good!! They deserve the attention!! And I'm so mad I can't own any physical copies
Funny thing is I can totally relate to SpongeBob by being an adult who doesn't know how to adult. I'm all of them can.
“We’ve received two movies in theaters” (Completely skips The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie from 2004)
Great video tho!

Ricardo You must do a retrospective on the epic Mickey franchise 😁😁😁
i remember loving the dark spongebob episodes when i was little like rock bottom and the episode when spongebob was afraid to go outside and that episode when garry ran away
“They released two SpongeBob movies in theaters” I think you’re missing one more lol great video by the way I just thought it was funny :3
Sponge On The Run was supposed to be released in theaters, but it was converted into a Paramount+ original movie because of COVID.
@@vanderquakSP and a netflix movie
My favorite SpongeBob episode of SpongeBob scaredy pants and Gary come home.

Yeah Target has some cool video game merch.
"You don't need a license to drive a sandwich."
Great video I hope your channel gets big
Love this episode. So awesome, spongebob is the best. Quick Question, because of the clip you showed, is a Phineas and Ferb or Regular Show video on the way? Also, I am guessing a Space Jam 2 video is on the way, right?
Yes, yes & yes!
@@PopScreenOfficial Awesome. BTW: Love this Channel. I have been a movie (and TV) fan all my life. I study every new movie in development and I watch as many as I can. This channel was a genius idea. I love the passion you put in your videos. Side note, Do you think the upcoming Sandy Cheeks Movie is a good idea. I think it is..... an idea.
A Very inspirational speech Riccardo. Sorry if I spelled your name wrong ✌️
Do you mean 3 movies ! There is The SpongeBob movie, SpongeBob sponge out of water, and SpongeBob on the run they all went to theaters !
Euphoria clip... Ricardo euphoria coverage 👀
Second favorite nick show after tmnt
this was a great video
Looney Toons is excellent and there's no comparison between these.
I love this video soooooo much, dude!!
Also, keep up the great work!!!
What's the ending song?
My cousin hates spongebob and being a die hard fan I get so mad when she brings it up
Lol
Excellent job!!!
I think I stopped watching Spongebob "religiously" in about 2009-2010, around the 10th anniversary. I watched a special or two here and there, but I kind of stopped catching up with the newer episodes, so I have no idea what is going on in the new seasons. I know that there are spinoff shows like the Patrick Show and Camp Koral but I don't have much interest in them. The only other thing I saw of Spongebob recently that I liked was the second Spongebob movie, which I saw with my mom when it came out in 2015.
Hey Ricardo could you make a video about Thomas the tank engines importance
The most iconic blue character!!!
Agreed
@@theminecraft2516 no, that would be Sonic
@@Sundjer_Bob_Kockalone no it wouldn’t
@@theminecraft2516 yes, sonic is popular for all ages so he’s more popular, Thomas is popular only for young kids
Do you know that scene where Squidward gets his freaking toenail peeled off yeah that happened to me so when I see that well I can’t even look at it but the first time I ever saw it I looked at it all the way through and I owe God I had horrible flashbacks they peeled off my entire toenail I was standing in front of a door and I had this weird metal plate thing on the bottom I don’t know what for and when they open it it just peeled off my entire big toenail.
Yeah the first 3 seasons are the best but are you sure seasons like season 6 season 8 or season 9 are not nearly as good as the first 3 seasons of the show?
Hey are you going to be talking about Spongebob cosmic shake the video game
Steven worked on the spinoffs
What an amazing video
Back in middle school, some girl told me SpongeBob is the worst cartoon and sooo annoying, never seen her again, really happy cause of that
Interesting video
I love this video
Steve actually worked on Kamp Koral so he probably did change his mind on spin-offs. ruclips.net/video/UGo5bK-G5k4/видео.html
Your allowed dislike these spin-offs, as long as they’re not comments like “Steve hated spin-offs” cause no he didn’t, he just didn’t see them working out, but he seems to have changed his mind.
Spongebob looks like cheese tbh
Maybe you could do a Looney tunes video
first
We don't care about who is first! Cancer comment! Be more original next time if you can! Unless it's too difficult for someone with no personality like you! I'm more than tired of people still writing the same crap. You're probably going to tell me to ignore this comment, but the problem is that I've been patient for years, genius. The solution would be to have less gender commentary. But that's too much to ask for someone like you.
(Sorry, I'm just countering the arguments that many people gave me.) It's just that it's very tiring to see the same kind of comments. If you have nothing original and relevant to say, then shut up. You can comment whatever you want. It’s just that this ‘joke’ of commenting ‘frist’ on every video in existence has gotten so old it’s firmly considered cringe these days. Yeah posting a comment helps the algorithm or whatever, but anybody who comments ‘first’ could just as easily comment ‘Cool!’ And it would at the very least be a nice comment and not just an entirely worthless statement.
You can post whatever you want, doesn’t mean you should :V You're probably going to tell me this is a long comment, but I have no choice but to put in so much detail or people will use some of these arguments against me. And it's not because I don't have a life that I say I'm tired of seeing "frist" comments. Maybe it's you who needs to change and write something more relevant and original instead of always writing the same thing.
.
I just want to live in a reality that Nickelodeon isn't as greedy or cringy and just leave Spongebob with 3 seasons and a movie 💛🌊
