The show SpongeBob SquarPants is nearly 25 years old

I can remember feeling like the youthful and optimistic Spongebob like it was yesterday

felt like Squidward for a long time now, though

You either die a Spongebob, or live long enough to become a Squidward.

Late for my era

Doug, Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Arnold, the Adventures of Pete and Pete, Clarissa Explains It All, Salute Your Shorts, and (outside of Nick) Tailspin, Tiny Toon Adventures, Batman: animated series and Beetlejuice were more my period.

Heard it was a good show though.

Spongebob is a hilarious show.


Watched all the shows in the above list as well. Hey Arnold was probably the goat, but for comedy SpongeBob hit.

I bet man, I hear a lot of good things about it. By the time it was really taking off, I moved on non-animated slightly more adult stuff, smallville, house, arrested development, firefly, and a bunch of others. Sad that I missed it, a show doesn’t last that long without some quality behind it.

On spread. Was also a smallville, and house fan. I watched a lot more tv back then.

i was already too old to watch it when it came out, so i thought it was a "newer" show

[Swept]

I still remember watching the first episode in 99, I think it was 3 episodes in one.

SpongeBob is still funny even as an adult, srs

[Visel]

Made me Google it and you're right OP. Also the same year Spongebob came out, so too did Ed Edd n Eddy, a few months earlier in fact. Crazy chit but makes sense, I'm late twenties and grew up with this chit.

I feel like I'm becoming more and more Squidward everyday

in the 90s a movie or show that was 25 years old seemed ancient...like watching a 1972 show in 1997. heck even mid-late 80s seemed very old.

Quality really shot up in the late 90s and early 2000's. I'd like to think that 90's and 00's media are timeless for that reason.

Damn, I remember watching the first episode as a kid in my parent's room.
