Sad. I started watching this with the kids, then the kids grew up and I kept watching.

May God rest his soul.

That said, I always felt Spongebob was pretty stupid and imagined children's brains melting everywhere while watching the show.

Respect for his success, regardless.

You are not alone in feeling that way about Spongebob.

Sorry about the writer going out the same way my dad did. Lou Ghergigs is hard way to die.

my kids got me hooked on Spongebob - i always found it more entertaining and interesting than most of the other animated crap out there. it was a kids show i could watch with them without getting bored ( teen titans would be the other one )

condolences to Mr. Hillenberg's friends and family

thank god.. he cant make another degenerate show...
