How do we save SpongeBob?

How do we save SpongeBob?

Hard mode: "cancelling the show" is not an option

It's already getting better on its own.
Season 10 might break or save the show.

>Time Travel Episode
>Spongebob needs to use time machine to prevent crisis
>Keeps fucking it up
>He finally fixes it, but Patrick presses a button and causes a paradox that rewinds time.
>Episode ends with reused footage from Pranks a Lot, erasing Seasons 4-9 from existence.
>re-hire old writing crew, continue forward.

"Cancel" my life.

shut the fuck up

that's how

Spongebob has never been outright bad. Even the "worst" episodes are still watchable. It just stopped being top tier for a while. Most of the episodes are pretty good. Got any examples of a bad episode?

That skill crane one sticks out as being unwatchable bad.

A pal for gary
House fancy
The splinter
That episode where Squidward turns into a baby
Kenny the cat
Best day ever

wtf man I thought that was one of the better ones

>user has a chance to complain about post movie Spongebob
>he picks Skill Crane
congrats, you have shit taste

Make it clever and funny.

Cancel the show.

Really? Squidward acting like a goofy sap, and Spongebob acting more childish and retarded than ever? It's horrible, just horrible trash mates.

Squidward has been known to Crack and do whatever dumb shit spongebob is doing. Examples include the first time he tried a krabby patty and the imagination box. It's pretty much in character for him. Unfortunately that's like the only good thing in that episode.

>casual hates new spongebob due to popular belief

You always let other people do the thinking for you?

Those episodes like The Splinter where they're just trying to gross people out for no other reason than "ewie! look isn't that gROSS? HIL-ARIOUS!"

For some reason this is common in lots of cartoons considered to be Nickelodeon's worst.

sell spongebob to [as] and tell them to do their worst.
I'll get the joy of seeing spongebob literally explode like a red giant.

Assemble a militia, storm Nickelodeon's headquarters, and blow it up.

worse scenario is that people end up liking this [as] spongebob

Start with a few bottle episodes, then keep the rest of the show tightly centered on the existing characters. Add a maximum of 5 lines per unnamed character per episode.

If something needs to be spiced up, bring back Squilliam or SpongeBob's parents or Flats or something like that. No new characters. No guest stars. No "SpongeBob helps out a stranger."
Also, keep Tom kenny's vocal cords on ice when he's not using them.

This is also how to save the Simpsons.

Skill Crane is a perfect example of how to write a good Spongebob episode

>Squidward sees Spongebob w/o Patrick doing something fun
>Spongebob tries to get him to like it
>Squidward refuses because he's such a prude, but soon learns to like it
>goes full autist and ends up ruining his entire life
Remember "The Paper" and "The Snowball Effect"? Slide Whistle Stooges is another one.

>The Paper
The best SB episode period.

Move it to adult swim

No. There is absolutely no way that would improve the quality of the show and just opens a whole other can of worms.

>cancelling the show is not an option
How about the VAs choosing not to renew their contracts?

and don't forget the pacing was good user

>Best day ever
>worst episode
