Spongebob Squarepants is an animated children's television program that has won several Emmy awards. Although the show is marketed to children, it is a show that people of all ages can enjoy.[1] Celebrities such as Mike Myers and Justin Timberlake are fans of the show.[2] It has been on the air since its debut on the Nickelodeon network in 1999. The show was made into a 2004 movie. On occasion, the show has been frowned on for containing crude humor. On at least one occasion, the show has been caught making statements implying that global warming is caused by humans[3].
Characters
- Spongebob Squarepants, the main character, is a happy-go-lucky sponge (shaped like a rectangular kitchen sponge, while his parents are ordinary sea sponges) who works at the Krusty Krab restaurant as a fry cook. The character has been praised as a symbol of a good attitude.[4]
- Patrick Star, Spongebob's best friend, is a starfish, known to have somewhat of a low intelligence. However, Patrick is extremely loyal, going so far as to brag about Spongebob's (perceived) abilities, which Spongebob usually meets in oft-heroic fashion. Patrick is often known for bursts of insight, which save the day, but which he promptly forgets.
- Squidward J. Tentacles, an squid, is Spongebob's neighbor and co-worker at the Krusty Krab. He is cynical and often shows annoyance at the antics of Spongebob and Patrick.
- Eugene H. Krabs, a crab, is the penny-pinching owner of Krusty Krab. He is often harsh to his employees but will occasionally show appreciation to them.
