Anyway, Spongebob is freakin' awesome. I do find the show annoying sometimes but it is one of the better cartoons, as it appeals to a wide audience due to its humor. My brother has almost all the DVDs
And for the record, Patrick is definitely the bestest.
I still love the first 3 seasons. It's just that after that, it was a lot less creative and fun.
I agree with ALT as well. I heard that Stephen Hillenburg Left the show or didn't play as active a roll after a certain season. So the show lost it's creative mastermin d and probably it's focus.
The show is so different now it looks like Nickelodeon is just milking every last penny out of what used to be the Spongebob franchise (They are just making lame episodes and riding off of the previous success of earlier Spongebob seasons.)
