For some reason the scene where SpongeBob squeezed his eyes shut too tight stuck with me, I constantly think of that scene over the years. 😂

Well Alicia enjoys it, so that's all that matters.

It's an odd comparison, but I feel like it kind of follows the same general pattern of quality loss as Game of Thrones: First two seasons are great. Three and four are still pretty solid but you can start to see some of the cracks forming here and there. Five and six aren't completely and utterly abysmal, but there's definitely a drop in quality and we start getting more misses than hits. Then as it goes on from there the decline is much faster, far more obvious, and a lot harder to deny.

The episodes after season 3 definitely aren't as good, but there are some good ones.

I see the dropoff almost immedoately. Even the Strangler episode was very weak. Spongebob just turns into a whiny fool. He becomes another Patrick, which completely ruins the dynamic. Then there's Squidward. All he becomes is a punching bag for Spongebob and Patrick. No reason for the torture porn of future episodes.

I'd recommend Alicia should continue to watch Spongebob only up until the end of Season 5, cause once Season 6 hits, that's when Spongebob really starts to go bad...
Or I guess she could watch Season 6 if she's really craving more Spongebob afterwards. It has some good episodes, but some pretty bad and meh ones too, it's a mixed bag.
However, I urge Alicia DO NOT WATCH SEASON 7! Every season after 6 is absolutely God Awful, and there's a good chance it will ruin a lot of the characters for her! Alicia has already fulfilled her "childhood as an adult" with the first 3 seasons (which peaked at the movie), and I'd hate to see her Spongebob adult childhood get tainted or even completely ruined by the later seasons, as Spongebob has only gotten gradually worse ever since Stephen Hillenburg left!
The only logical solution I can think of is maybe for Alicia's viewers to decide which specific episodes she should watch, and be very selective about it, as Season 7 and beyond have very few actual good episodes.

Nah, the quality drop wasnt like something instantanious, especially season 4 is all around still great.
But you could say that the longer Stephen Hillenburg wasnt involved with the show anymore, the more it lost its charme over time.
Still glad the reactions continue tho

I’d say the best barometer is like
If you’re still enjoying it, you’re obviously welcome to.
Just don’t expect the uniform quality of bangers to be the standard. There will be some duds.

Even if Alicia stops watching the series, I pray she checks out the other movies 🥺🙏 (a comp of some great episodes would be great too!)

Yeah, it's unbelievable how much I still could remember from the show and the movie.
But yeah, now you can see how, season by season, the modern animation "improves," and the standards of the jokes are lowering (also becoming more gross-looking nowadays).
Yes, I know. Log-running shows like that change with the time and live only for the money, and that's inevitable.
But man, no wonder kids these days are… messed up (not that we ware better 😅)

Strange how I don’t remember this episode at all. It must’ve been that bad.
Edit: I’ve seen the Iron Abs Krabs portion but never the other one.

CH Greenblatt has actually been a Spongebob crew member for years (he was a writer and storyboard artist for Dying For Pie all the way back in season 2). He also voices Carl in Selling Out this season.

Sadly after the movie isn't really worth watching as the show just slowly keeps getting worse, the same passion is gone. Also the creator stopped working on the show.

I know I saw some of those episodes after the movie came out, but as an adult I can clearly see the difference in animation for this episode compared to the last one from season 3.

Honestly I'd still try to continue if I was you. There's are still good episodes. Season 4 and 5 is still mostly good imo and even thale later seasons have good episodes sprinkled in every so often. Even if we get to a point where you are no longer injoying the show you could still ask us the episodes that are worth watching

Some of the best episodes in the entire series are actually hidden away in the middle seasons coming up, so I'm glad you're giving it a try!
Admittedly there is a vibe shift of the series for a while as the showrunners change and they try to find a new identity, and there are some rough episodes here and there, but its worth experiencing.

The Chowder creator was getting involved in the series at the time which explains why the characters (particularly their faces) look different compared to previous episodes.

SpongeBob and Squidward definitely need more sleep because of how much Krabs over worked them

Yeah, Season 4 still has multiple bangers. Even if the shift to certain... Freaky, not sexy freaky, humor is still apparent.
Season 5 is the one that really Starts dropping the ball.

SpongeBob after season 3, especially early on, was still funny, but the vibe shift was immediate and undeniable.
