Anon most NuBob defenders are in the agreement that the show is pretty style over substance these days. They just admire the fact that it's expressive animation looks amazing compared to any cartoon on TV currently, you can't convince me that animators tweening rigs on Rick & Morty clone number 292323 are having more fun than the ones drawing fun expressions in NuBob.

The show just needs better writing, Season 11 was the best post-movie season IMO cause it balanced good writing and good animation.

What bothers me is how much modern spongebob intentionally disregards the aesthetic of the show. There are some shots where you literally could not tell it's from Spongebob without context. Like the Ren and Stimpy closeups of the Reindeer or the human kids. Pic related is an example but it still has the flower sky.

HEY ADULTS WHO NEVER GREW UP! REMEMBER THIS ONE? HUH? GUESS WHICH OLD EPISODE OF SPONGEBOB THIS CHARACTER IS FROM! WE CHANGED THE COLORS TO MAKE IT HARDER FOR YOU BUT GUESS! ALSO HERES SOME REALLY GROSS STUFF FOR THE KIDS!
>>
>>150207445
Honestly say what you want about modern SpongeBob, but when compared to other shows that have been on the air for 25+ years, it's seasonal rot was probably the least severe.

IMO NuBob isn't bad on its own, its just a completely different show now, and honestly I'd prefer that over an eternity of Tibbitt era-level quality seasons.

>>150207338
Much better than The Owl House

idk those middle seasons were up there with as bad as something like spongebob could ever get compared to family guy or simpsons. even then they still had shit like pic related yet no one ever acknowledges. it's always the stupid tentacle hentai picture, not this.

>>150207338
Does anyone know why zoomers defend nu spongebob to death? Every time there's a conversation about it they come out of the woodwork and defend it to death

???
Rent free

>>150207603
Because companies put trans flags onto their social media profiles so if you talk about about a company you're hurting all the heccin real people working really hard on these shows.

Those were the aforementioned Tibbitt seasons, honestly I'm glad that modern SpongeBob has basically became an outlet for cartoonists to showcase their talent, but at the same time you can just tell they're just hosting said great cartooning in a hollowed out corpse.

In a perfect world SpongeBob would've ended at the first movie and we would've gotten tons of wacky cartoons these days with Spumco-like animation rather than a zombie show being the only one doing it. Occasionally there are a couple of good episodes like Bubble Bass Reviews or Delivery of Doom but even they don't come close to the golden age episodes.

We get it, you wish you were a kid again and that the show ended after the movie.

Has there ever been a case study on why Spongeboomers are the way they are? You could take the "old good new bad" fans from literally any type of popular media out right now and compare them and they could never ever hope to match up to how obnoxious and autistic pre-movie SBfag are.
>>
>>150207603
Who the fuck cares? The newer episodes are just more like Looney Tunes or Ren & Stimpy like SpongeBob, they aren't offensively terrible like seasons 6-9, they're just chill things you can watch that can occasionally get a couple laughs out, at its worst post-sequel SB is harmless.
>>
Are you guys the same people who complained about the Hazbin Hotel pilot having bad pacing during the songs? Because that's the same thing I'm seeing here. Yeah the drawings are expressive but they're not letting them breathe. There's no rhythm, it would do better as a comic than an animation because they're whiffing the movement part.
>>
>>150207749
I find if funny how literally no other longrunners fandoms are like this, Simpsons fans are all in the agreement that the show is way past its prime but will admit that modern seasons can occasionally have decent episodes and give them actual criticism rather than simply saying "it sucks", and the ones that do refuse to watch the newer seasons don't act like whiny nostalgiafags about it.

It's probably cause SpongeBob's a kids show and attracts more manchildren

Why they had to do my boy dirty like that?

He was one of my favorites, I always liked his face.

omg they animated a nubob fan meetup???

It was also just Simpsons was a declining quality while Spongebob was more like.. a total whiplash with the mid seasons.
Look at it like this. Seasons 9-14 of the Simpsons are generally considered a mixed bag era of declining quality but with some genuinely great episodes like Moe's Baby Blues.
Spongebob is more lik, that all condensed because everyone was ready to close shop at season 4 which was the decline era.

>>150207445
You can really tell they just took reference from Rover Dangerfield in animating Rodney as a sea monster.
>>
>>150207749
Same shit as OTfags seething over the PT.

I hope these are just bots or trolls defending nu-Bob.

I feel as though NuBob is basically Sanjay and Craig in SpongeBob skin.

It's trying so hard to be ren and stimpy

I remember awhile ago people online were raving about this one episode of modern spongebob that looked like something that came out of season 1 spongebob. Does anyone know what I’m talking about?
>>
>>150207684
the lazy comic book guy-tier episode where bubble bass is directly parodying nostalgia critic trying to make anyone who says anything about the show a gigantic waifu loving manbaby akin to TTG "jabs" at the audience? that's a good episode?
>>
>>150207338
so this is what lets players do after oneyplays

>>150208229
The episode in question is A Fish Called Sandy.

Its story is pretty typical and not really much different from other modern episodes (Especially since scientist Sandy was involved) but it looked like an HD S1 and actually looks well done. There’s even a few fun gags throughout.

Its because its a fundamentally different show.
The Simpsons has had tits major decline but the content feels like its trying to be judged on the same criteria as the golden years. As mentioned up thread Spongebob these days is a shell hosting another show working on such fundamentally different axioms the 1-movie that it is unpalatable.
Ironically if the just changed the name so give a clear break or ended the show for a full pivot to The Patrick Star Show most of the complaints would dry up because that line of continuity would be gone and with it any obligation to care.
