"Nickelodeon's Secret History of PEDOPHILE Creators"
(an Analysis)
With the rumors swirling around about the creator of SpongeBob SquarePants Stephen Hillenburg being a pedophile and the show's connection to Jeffery Epstein I wanted to analyze the network's history of harboring pedos
Let's begin!
While I have no real concrete proof of Hillenburg being a pedophile I do believe he was perhaps hiding something
Why?
Because of John Kricfalusi (creator of Ren & Stimpy)
John K was the beginning of Nick's storied history of harboring & protecting sexual abusers
Therefore I don't find it hard to believe that the creator of the most successful Nickelodeon show could be a pedophile!
It is a well-known fact that 99.9% of Nick's successes were created by pedos
Why should SpongeBob SquarePants be any different?
That minuscule 1 percent would be people like Butch Hartman, Arlene Klasky, Gabor Csupo, Paul Germain, Brian Konietzko, Michael DiMartino, C.H Greenblatt, Jhonen Vasquez, Tyler Perry, Jim Jinkins, etc
As far as I know, they're the good ones with a clean record
It would TRULY devastate me to learn that Klasky, Germain, and Csupo are pedophiles but I really don't think so
No way
But SpongeBob SquarePants has so much behind-the-scenes shit happening and with the statistics of pedophile creators with successful shows at Nickelodeon, the probability that Stephen Hillenburg was a pedo is very HIGH!
What was he hiding?!?
Who knows?
Honestly, I should have suspected it all along based on the show's content
SpongeBob is a spiritual successor to Ren & Stimpy and Stephen Hillenburg can be seen as a spiritual successor to John Kricfalusi
If Hillenburg really was a pedophile (since he's dead we can't confirm this unless one of his victims steps forward) this has the potential to be CATASTROPHIC for Nick!
Even worse than the Dan Schneider fallout
Schneider's sordid past didn't do anything to really damage the network because people knew from the onset that he was a pedo
But THIS?
You better believe SpongeBob SquarePants will end
I'm happy that we may finally be starting to see the long overdue demise of this show
The rumors originated from a Twitter post where someone said SpongeBob's address is the address of Jeffery Epstein's private island
IDK if this is true because I'm not sure what the address of Epstein's island is but it sounds plausible
There is a correlation for sure
God...this is going to destroy many people's fond memories of the show
I have already made the decision to move on from SpongeBob a while ago and this crap is only making my decision easier
I HATE NICKELODEON FOR HARBORING ALL THESE SICK MEN WITHOUT GETTING CAUGHT AND NOT HAVING TO PAY FOR THEIR ACTIONS
If this show dies due to this awful revelation then I can safely say Nick is getting their comeuppance
A well-deserved comeuppance
Disney Channel and Cartoon Network are MUCH cleaner and as far as I know aren't harboring sexual abusers
Nickelodeon is going to die once the parents find out about this bombshell
Shit is about to hit the fan!
Could this be the catalyst for disrespecting Stephen Hillenburg?
Possibly
What if...they knew Hillenburg was a pedophile and then decided to go against his last request?
They probably mistreated him because of John Kricfalusi
The truth is I am sick to death of SpongeBob's continued relevance and welcome ANYTHING that can bring this show down!
Even moreso now with this earth-shattering development
If this is true, then just think of how people would react...
-They'd destroy all their SpongeBob SquarePants merchandise and burn it to cinders
-They'd take all their DVD's and break the discs
-They'd change their username on message boards to something like "THE SPONGE MUST DIE 2020"
-They'd be like Patchy from the Sponge Who Could Fly and say: "SPONGEBOB BETRAYED US!!!!!!"
-They'd draw anti-fanart where the characters are getting horribly injured
-They'd create petitions calling for Nickelodeon to stop making the show
The show recently won an Emmy award which I feel was undeserved
NO TV show created by a sexual predator deserves any praise
Yes, I understand that Tom Kenny has only been nominated one other time prior to now but my point still stands
Also, he is a pedophile by association due to having strong ties to Hillenburg
I find the fact that Nick has yet to come forward and refute the theory extremely suspicious
Does that mean it's 100% true?!?
Who would have thought the creator of SpongeBob SquarePants had a sordid past?
Sometimes the least likely people are the ones hiding a deep dark secret
And that certainly applies to Stephen Hillenburg
Nickelodeon won't put this show out to pasture because of their sick fascination with pedophiles
It's also the reason they won't cancel The Loud House
Also, it's why they held onto Dan Schneider for so long before finally dropping him
I'll go as far to suggest that they purposely fired Butch Hartman and the rest of the NickToon creators because they weren't creeps
In other words, they didn't fit Nick's specifications
Nickelodeon only wants shows from people who are pedophiles
Which explains why they green-lit SpongeBob SquarePants & The Loud House
And why it's taking so long to find the next "SpongeBob" as well
Nobody wants to work for them because they treat their employees as throwaway toys and hire questionable people!
Every other show pitch gets tossed out because of this
They must have had knowledge of this stuff prior to green-lighting the shows
You might think I'm crazy but let's look at the bigger picture here:
Remember above where I mentioned how most of the network's successful shows were conceptualized by known pedos?
It's true
Ratings are being used as a front for the REAL reason they won't end SpongeBob
The fans need to WAKE THE FUCK UP and abandon SBSP!
Nick is using these shows to brainwash kids
I'm not just saying that because I want to see SpongeBob SquarePants get canceled
I truly do believe it!
#ImpeachSpongeBob2020
#RinseouttheSponge
A fresh new cartoon NEEDS to come along in the next decade so Nickelodeon can FINALLY put the sponge to rest
Besides, the show is running out of steam so killing it is for the best
Please let Kamp Koral be the end!!!
At least that Netflix Squidward show isn't happening
On another note, why haven't the voice actors (Tom Kenny, Bill Fagerbakke, Clancy Brown, Carolyn Lawrence, Rodger Bumpass, Doug Lawrence, Lori Alan, and Mary Jo Catlett) stepped forward to defend Stephen Hillenburg from these accusations?
Or the show-runners Vincent Waller and Marc Ceccarelli?
Strange...
I have a bad feeling we will start seeing allegations come to the surface
I hope this isn't true but I don't trust Nick
If Stephen Hillenburg truly was a pedophile then Nickelodeon did a good job hiding that!
He was one of the LAST people I would have ever suspected
There has to be something on SpongeBob SquarePants that hints at this much like how many episodes of Ren & Stimpy hinted at John Kricfalusi's sordid past...
But what?
I don't recall any characters being sexually abused
Not even SpongeBob would go that far
HOWEVER, there is Squid abuse so there might be something more to that
I never once considered the possibility that Squidward abuse is the manifestation of Stephen Hillenburg's behavior!
Maybe that's why the abuse feels so REAL and not cartoony
Squid abuse is really no different than sexual abuse or child abuse
Perhaps the constant abuse of Squidward was his way of putting in abuse without being inappropriate or raising suspicion...
It could very well mean that Hillenburg much like John K inserted his behavior into the show
This is horrible
What IS the true purpose of Squidward's constant abuse?
So Stephen Hillenburg could basically air his "dirty laundry"!
Otherwise, there would be no need for squid abuse
I would assume, if Stephen Hillenburg IS a pedophile, that Squidward is like all the women that he mistreated over the years!
Meaning that Hillenburg being a pedo is most likely the reason Squidward gets abused
Doesn't paint a pretty picture, does it?
Whoa...this is so surreal
If my theory is correct then I'll never see Squid Abuse the same way ever again!
Hard to believe a creator of a beloved cartoon could be a creep
And now I may know exactly WHY Nick has an obsession with pedophiles...
Viacom has a connection with Jeffery Epstein, which may explain EVERYTHING
Maybe Nickelodeon has been corrupting once-decent people (like Stephen Hillenburg, John Kricfalusi, Chris Savino, and Dan Schneider) and basically grooming them to become pedophiles?
The very thought scares me!
But I believe it
Viacom is corrupt and perhaps they bought Nick specifically to brainwash kids
"Who cares if these creators are pedophiles?"
"WATCH THEIR SHOWS!"
they'd say
And people fall for their bait EVERY SINGLE TIME
Without questioning the motives behind these shows or their creators
It's not their fault
Kids are very naive and don't analyze stuff like teens and adults do
How were they supposed to know John K, Dan Schneider, and (possibly) Stephen Hillenburg are/were pedophiles?
Nick has done such a good job hiding that by presenting each creator's show as innocent & harmless when they're anything BUT
Nickelodeon cannot be allowed to continue to get away with this!
The question is:
Who at the network is ultimately responsible for allowing pedos to work there?
I don't know but I wish I did
This is a systemic issue
It won't stop until we get to the source of the problem
The "source" being the person who enabled this behavior in the first place
Could Brian Robbins be the enabler?
Or someone higher-up at Viacom?
Is this an Ubisoft situation?
For those who aren't aware, French video game developer Ubisoft has had a long history of sexual abuse, which was enabled by the CEO
Something similar might be happening with Nick/Viacom
If that's the case then we NEED to remove Viacom's CEO!
Better yet, the way to fix both Viacom AND Nickelodeon is to get rid of Shari Redstone
She's the true reason the company & network are in such dire straits right now
She was the one who forced the merger with CBS against their will
She may even be responsible for the non-stop milking of SpongeBob SquarePants instead of allowing the show to die!
Which would explain why the milking didn't stop after Cyma Zarghami left
Getting rid of her will SIGNIFICANTLY help Viacom and Nick
Forget impeaching SPONGEBOB...
We need to impeach Ms. Redstone
Her father Sumner is on his deathbed but she has proven that she does not know how to run a company
When Shari Redstone is fired is when we would have a better chance of seeing the end to SpongeBob
And believe me, I really want to see the end of SpongeBob SquarePants as soon as possible!
But it won't happen until Shari Redstone is kicked out of Viacom
On another note:
I just found out ALL divisions of Nickelodeon are heartless assholes!
A Japanese fan of SpongeBob SquarePants wrote to the network on Facebook complaining about the Japanese voice actor for Squidward being 80 years old and they never wrote him back
So much for caring for your fans, huh?
Nick NEEDS a COMPLETE OVERHAUL
Honestly I believe Viacom is poison to Nick and if they broke away maybe things would improve!
Perhaps we'd even get to see the end of SpongeBob as I've stated above
And apparently according to an old magazine, Nickelodeon has mistreated creators since the early 90's with Ren & Stimpy!
This is a REAL eye-opener about the state of the network as a whole
The founder of Nick Geraldine Laybourne HATED R&S because the network "didn't want to be known as the network of boogers and farts" which is exactly what Nickelodeon IS
Imagine if other executives had Laybourne's mind-set then SpongeBob SquarePants would have NEVER HAPPENED
Nick has always sucked even in the early 90's
History is repeating with SpongeBob...
#freethesponge
#impeachshariredstone
(she's the REAL problem!!!)
Nick LOVES disrespecting people, even their own founder!!!
I have respect for Geraldine Laybourne because she was a pioneer
She created the first kids' TV channel
It's like once she left, Nickelodeon immediately took a nosedive
That's EXACTLY what happened
Her successor Herb Scannell pretty much destroyed the network
And don't forget that Laybourne had absolutely nothing to do with the green-lighting of SpongeBob
That was all Scannell and Zarghami's doing
I don't personally know Geraldine Laybourne but I think she wouldn't like SBSP and wouldn't have green-lit it had she still been the CEO
If she hated Ren & Stimpy then she'd most likely hate SpongeBob SquarePants due to the latter's connection to the former
SpongeBob has such deep ties to R&S to the point where character assets from Ren & Stimpy (the fish from the episode "Bass Masters") were reused as the Bikini Bottomites
SBSP at its core is a spiritual successor to Ren & Stimpy
Every single element SpongeBob is known for was derived from R&S
And people like C.H Greenblatt are the "Bob Camp" of SpongeBob SquarePants which is probably why most fans fondly remininsce about his episodes
Bob Camp made Ren & Stimpy what it was and C.H Greenblatt made SBSP what it was!
You can see how they got Bob Camp to work on SpongeBob SquarePants huh?
It was most likely Vincent Waller's doing since the 2 have known each other since the Spumco days
Nick wants to see if SpongeBob can capture that kind of style that R&S had and they very well couldn't hire John K (well they could but I don't even think he LIKES SpongeBob SquarePants because he might see the show as a shoddy knock-off of his IP which it absolutely is)
We've never heard John K's thoughts on the show despite being a popular runaway hit
Why is that?
Why has John Kricfalusi never spoken about SpongeBob?
I think he hates the fact that SpongeBob SquarePants is more successful than his show ever was!
Perhaps John K saw Stephen Hillenburg as a rival...
If I remember correctly, in 2018 when Hillenburg died and people from the animation industry paid tribute to him on Twitter, John Kricfalusi wasn't one of them
The truth is SpongeBob shouldn't have been more successful than Ren & Stimpy because R&S was the progenator of the whole concept
"Why have a cheap knock-off when you can have the original?"
Right, Squidward?
I can understand Kricfalusi's anger
And I'm not even a big fan of his creation but there's no denying that SpongeBob SquarePants along with numerous other cartoons wouldn't exist without it!
R & S created a new type of cartoon and SpongeBob shouldn't get any of the credit!
That's the reason SBSP ultimately is undeserving of all its accolades
Therefore, I can say that SpongeBob SquarePants is TRULY overrated
I get why John K wants nothing to do with the show
It must infuriate him knowing that this show has not only lasted longer than his but also is 100 times more popular
But is it possible that John Kricfalusi wanted to intentionally sabotage Ren & Stimpy so he could become free from Nickelodeon/Viacom's grasp?
Maybe he ISN'T even a pedophile and made that up in order to be fired...
We don't know the whole story
If Nick truly wanted to intentionally sabotage SBSP, the absolute best way of doing so is to hire John K to work on the show
Once people find out that the pedo creator of Ren & Stimpy is working on SpongeBob SquarePants, they'd lose all remaining faith in Nickelodeon AND abandon the show faster than you could say "Texas"!
Perhaps in the future if this show STILL isn't gone and Nick decides they're tired of it, the network will have to resort to hiring John Kricfalusi as a last-ditch effort to finally kill off SBSP
That's one of the only things powerful enough to damage the sponge
Nobody likes John K!
He's toxic with everything he is involved with
Hiring him for SpongeBob SquarePants would be the dumbest most costly move Nickelodeon has ever made!
Even though I want it to happen because the original American show has stayed static for 21 years (to the point where I wonder how it has stayed in production for this long), a SBSP anime would also be the dumbest most costly move Nick has ever made because an anime would destroy what people love about these characters
It certainly wouldn't work out in the same way Powerpuff Girls Z did
But I want to see a total re-imagining of SpongeBob SquarePants WITHOUT Viacom US's involvement
The American show has completely lost its luster
This is the result of going on for WAY TOO LONG!
I am sick of Tom Kenny, Bill Fagerbakke, Clancy Brown, Carolyn Lawrence, Rodger Bumpass, Lori Alan, Mary Jo Catlett, Doug Lawrence, and Jill Talley
I want to see some NEW fresh younger VAs which an anime can provide
Unfortunately the only "re-imagining" of this IP that came to fruition was the Broadway musical
SpongeBob is better off staying as an American property being handled by an American company
Who knows what Japan would do to it if they had the opportunity...
(SBSP card-battle/monster-battle shonen series?)
Actually I would LOVE that since it would be a true re-imagining
Nickelodeon hates Japan and you can thank John K for that!
That's why their shows are animated in Korea
Bob Camp was the best choice to hire for SpongeBob SquarePants
They really are trying to mold SBSP into Ren & Stimpy 2.0!!!
In both cases, the creators weren't the ones who determined the shows' popularity
Yeah it's pretty much guaranteed that Laybourne would have skipped over the pitch for SpongeBob and not allowed Stephen Hillenburg to pitch his concept in the first place
But this is just my alternate reality dream
The only reason Ren & Stimpy got green-lit was due to Vanessa Coffey
SpongeBob SquarePants got green-lit due to Cyma Zarghami & Herb Scannell
It's funny that both shows have been in the same situation where most of the executives didn't believe in it when it was first pitched and one or two executives decide to go against the popular opinion
Geraldine Laybourne didn't believe in R & S but Vanessa Coffey was able to override her and green-light the show anyway
Most of Nick's executives thought SpongeBob SquarePants would be a failure and originally didn't want to move forward with the initial pitch
Except for Cyma Zarghami and Herb Scannell
They probably green-lit the show to prove the other execs wrong
Same thing with Ren & Stimpy
The 2 shows are 100% connected!
Makes you wonder if Nick's founder had a premonition that her network was going to go downhill and wanted to escape while she still could...
Interesting to think about
As long as they hire pedophiles and mistreat creators who could potentially create the next "SpongeBob" Nickelodeon won't ever recover!
And rebooting Ren & Stimpy for Comedy Central with their animation studio producing it is NOT the solution
If anything that will just hurt their good standings with viewers who are shocked that a KIDS' ANIMATION STUDIO is producing a show for an ADULT NETWORK
Don't worry, it shocked me too!
I literally said "WHAT?!" and had to do a double-take
That would be like Cartoon Network making a show for CNN or TNT
Or Disney Channel making a show for Freeform or ABC
It's simply wrong!
I don't care if Ren & Stimpy is the entire reason Nick Animation Studio even exists (really, look it up!)
I'll tell you the condensed version of the story:
In 1992 John K was fired from Nickelodeon due to failing to meet deadlines
But is that HIS fault or THEIRS?
John K liked to procrastinate just like I do
I will NEVER create my own cartoon because I wouldn't be able to handle the pressure
I'd rather create video games which is a more fun working environment than animation
Perhaps John Kricfalusi couldn't handle it and collapsed under pressure
Especially if he has bipolar disorder like he says
I'm autistic so there's no way I can handle the stress that comes with making and keeping a cartoon popular!
Nickelodeon is notorious for short deadlines which is also a huge issue with SpongeBob SquarePants and probably why Stephen Hillenburg quit after the first movie
Another reason why high popularity is a BAD thing!
The more popular your show, the faster you have to crank out episodes
And if you're the creator that means you carry the whole burden of the show's production on your shoulders!
Maintaining a runaway hit cartoon would be as stressful as being the President of the United States
It's better for a show to be a moderate hit vs a major hit
Then you don't have to worry about stuff like deadlines or executive meddling
Hillenburg much like Kricfalusi collapsed under pressure
I can see why he walked away
If I were in his shoes, I would too
Constantly having to maintain a popular TV show is HARD
I can't do that, so I'll never make my own cartoon
A show might be popular and bring in money but have you ever considered the psychological toll it must take on the creators?
This might be why more & more creators are forgoing television animation and releasing their shows on the Internet
I believe we are starting to see the slow death of traditional network-driven animation
Nobody needs to deal with all the stress that comes with a successful show
Not Stephen Hillenburg
Not John Kricfalusi
How Klasky and Csupo were able to survive Rugrats' reign is a mystery...
That is the NUMBER ONE reason I believe with every fiber of my being that SpongeBob is too big for its own good!
If the show were a moderate success then none of these rants would exist because it would be ancient history by now
Rugrats was a major success but not to the level of SpongeBob SquarePants so it's less problematic
Ren & Stimpy was a moderate success
John K was the creator but NOT the reason this show succeeded
After he got fired, co-creator Bob Camp decided to take over and this lead to the formation of a new animation house in Burbank called Games Animation which would eventually come to be known as the "Nickelodeon Animation Studio"
Maybe this is just things coming full-circle since Nick Animation is returning to the show that basically built them but I'm not sure
It's still not right
It feels like a desperation move
I am tired of Viacom-CBS recycling old IP instead of creating new ones that prove to be long-lasting hits like they did in the 90's!
Where are the new juggernauts (besides Loud House)?
On another note, wouldn't it be funny if SpongeBob and The Loud House were produced at Games Animation rather than NAS?
Can a TV channel "jump the shark"?
Because I believe Nick just did!
This is the final nail in the coffin for Nickelodeon
I am NEVER watching the "Pedophile Paradise Network" EVER AGAIN!!!
I thought they wanted to distance themselves from Ren & Stimpy after the revelations with John K?
Why would they decide to return to this IP?
Are they seriously THAT desperate for a hit show that they would resort to reviving this ancient cartoon?!
Things have to change soon because I can't survive another decade of SpongeBob SquarePants!
I think Nick is pushing SpongeBob so hard BECAUSE of Ren & Stimpy
I bet the true reason they love this show is due to its heavy R&S connections
Also, I'm willing to bet the "Bob" in SpongeBob's name is a reference to Bob Camp the aforementioned co-creator of Ren & Stimpy
The "SpongeBoy" mop copyright story thing is probably fabricated by Nickelodeon to keep people from finding out the character's REAL origins!
Making Stephen Hillenburg being a pedophile even MORE possible
Thanks for reading!
How do YOU feel about Nick hiring pedophiles to work for them?
Post your thoughts in the comments below
See you later!
"Nickelodeon's Secret History of PEDOPHILE Creators"

Something similar might be happening with Nick/Viacom
If that's the case then we NEED to remove Viacom's CEO!
Better yet, the way to fix both Viacom AND Nickelodeon is to get rid of Shari Redstone
She's the true reason the company & network are in such dire straits right now
She was the one who forced the merger with CBS against their will
She may even be responsible for the non-stop milking of SpongeBob SquarePants instead of allowing the show to die!
Which would explain why the milking didn't stop after Cyma Zarghami left
Getting rid of her will SIGNIFICANTLY help Viacom and Nick
Forget impeaching SPONGEBOB...
We need to impeach Ms. Redstone
Her father Sumner is on his deathbed but she has proven that she does not know how to run a company
When Shari Redstone is fired is when we would have a better chance of seeing the end to SpongeBob
And believe me, I really want to see the end of SpongeBob SquarePants as soon as possible!
But it won't happen until Shari Redstone is kicked out of Viacom
On another note:
I just found out ALL divisions of Nickelodeon are heartless assholes!
A Japanese fan of SpongeBob SquarePants wrote to the network on Facebook complaining about the Japanese voice actor for Squidward being 80 years old and they never wrote him back
So much for caring for your fans, huh?
Nick NEEDS a COMPLETE OVERHAUL
Honestly I believe Viacom is poison to Nick and if they broke away maybe things would improve!
Perhaps we'd even get to see the end of SpongeBob as I've stated above
And apparently according to an old magazine, Nickelodeon has mistreated creators since the early 90's with Ren & Stimpy!
This is a REAL eye-opener about the state of the network as a whole
The founder of Nick Geraldine Laybourne HATED R&S because the network "didn't want to be known as the network of boogers and farts" which is exactly what Nickelodeon IS
Imagine if other executives had Laybourne's mind-set then SpongeBob SquarePants would have NEVER HAPPENED
Nick has always sucked even in the early 90's
History is repeating with SpongeBob...
#freethesponge
#impeachshariredstone
(she's the REAL problem!!!)
Nick LOVES disrespecting people, even their own founder!!!
I have respect for Geraldine Laybourne because she was a pioneer
She created the first kids' TV channel
It's like once she left, Nickelodeon immediately took a nosedive
That's EXACTLY what happened
Her successor Herb Scannell pretty much destroyed the network
And don't forget that Laybourne had absolutely nothing to do with the green-lighting of SpongeBob
That was all Scannell and Zarghami's doing
I don't personally know Geraldine Laybourne but I think she wouldn't like SBSP and wouldn't have green-lit it had she still been the CEO
If she hated Ren & Stimpy then she'd most likely hate SpongeBob SquarePants due to the latter's connection to the former
SpongeBob has such deep ties to R&S to the point where character assets from Ren & Stimpy (the fish from the episode "Bass Masters") were reused as the Bikini Bottomites
SBSP at its core is a spiritual successor to Ren & Stimpy
Every single element SpongeBob is known for was derived from R&S
And people like C.H Greenblatt are the "Bob Camp" of SpongeBob SquarePants which is probably why most fans fondly remininsce about his episodes
Bob Camp made Ren & Stimpy what it was and C.H Greenblatt made SBSP what it was!
You can see how they got Bob Camp to work on SpongeBob SquarePants huh?
It was most likely Vincent Waller's doing since the 2 have known each other since the Spumco days
Nick wants to see if SpongeBob can capture that kind of style that R&S had and they very well couldn't hire John K (well they could but I don't even think he LIKES SpongeBob SquarePants because he might see the show as a shoddy knock-off of his IP which it absolutely is)
We've never heard John K's thoughts on the show despite being a popular runaway hit
Why is that?
Why has John Kricfalusi never spoken about SpongeBob?
I think he hates the fact that SpongeBob SquarePants is more successful than his show ever was!
Perhaps John K saw Stephen Hillenburg as a rival...
If I remember correctly, in 2018 when Hillenburg died and people from the animation industry paid tribute to him on Twitter, John Kricfalusi wasn't one of them
The truth is SpongeBob shouldn't have been more successful than Ren & Stimpy because R&S was the progenator of the whole concept
"Why have a cheap knock-off when you can have the original?"
Right, Squidward?
I can understand Kricfalusi's anger
And I'm not even a big fan of his creation but there's no denying that SpongeBob SquarePants along with numerous other cartoons wouldn't exist without it!
R & S created a new type of cartoon and SpongeBob shouldn't get any of the credit!
That's the reason SBSP ultimately is undeserving of all its accolades
Therefore, I can say that SpongeBob SquarePants is TRULY overrated
I get why John K wants nothing to do with the show
It must infuriate him knowing that this show has not only lasted longer than his but also is 100 times more popular
But is it possible that John Kricfalusi wanted to intentionally sabotage Ren & Stimpy so he could become free from Nickelodeon/Viacom's grasp?
Maybe he ISN'T even a pedophile and made that up in order to be fired...
We don't know the whole story
If Nick truly wanted to intentionally sabotage SBSP, the absolute best way of doing so is to hire John K to work on the show
Once people find out that the pedo creator of Ren & Stimpy is working on SpongeBob SquarePants, they'd lose all remaining faith in Nickelodeon AND abandon the show faster than you could say "Texas"!
Perhaps in the future if this show STILL isn't gone and Nick decides they're tired of it, the network will have to resort to hiring John Kricfalusi as a last-ditch effort to finally kill off SBSP
That's one of the only things powerful enough to damage the sponge
Nobody likes John K!
He's toxic with everything he is involved with
Hiring him for SpongeBob SquarePants would be the dumbest most costly move Nickelodeon has ever made!
Even though I want it to happen because the original American show has stayed static for 21 years (to the point where I wonder how it has stayed in production for this long), a SBSP anime would also be the dumbest most costly move Nick has ever made because an anime would destroy what people love about these characters
It certainly wouldn't work out in the same way Powerpuff Girls Z did
But I want to see a total re-imagining of SpongeBob SquarePants WITHOUT Viacom US's involvement
The American show has completely lost its luster
This is the result of going on for WAY TOO LONG!
I am sick of Tom Kenny, Bill Fagerbakke, Clancy Brown, Carolyn Lawrence, Rodger Bumpass, Lori Alan, Mary Jo Catlett, Doug Lawrence, and Jill Talley
I want to see some NEW fresh younger VAs which an anime can provide
Unfortunately the only "re-imagining" of this IP that came to fruition was the Broadway musical
SpongeBob is better off staying as an American property being handled by an American company
Who knows what Japan would do to it if they had the opportunity...
(SBSP card-battle/monster-battle shonen series?)
Actually I would LOVE that since it would be a true re-imagining
Nickelodeon hates Japan and you can thank John K for that!
That's why their shows are animated in Korea
Bob Camp was the best choice to hire for SpongeBob SquarePants
They really are trying to mold SBSP into Ren & Stimpy 2.0!!!
In both cases, the creators weren't the ones who determined the shows' popularity
Yeah it's pretty much guaranteed that Laybourne would have skipped over the pitch for SpongeBob and not allowed Stephen Hillenburg to pitch his concept in the first place
But this is just my alternate reality dream
The only reason Ren & Stimpy got green-lit was due to Vanessa Coffey
SpongeBob SquarePants got green-lit due to Cyma Zarghami & Herb Scannell
It's funny that both shows have been in the same situation where most of the executives didn't believe in it when it was first pitched and one or two executives decide to go against the popular opinion
Geraldine Laybourne didn't believe in R & S but Vanessa Coffey was able to override her and green-light the show anyway
Most of Nick's executives thought SpongeBob SquarePants would be a failure and originally didn't want to move forward with the initial pitch
Except for Cyma Zarghami and Herb Scannell
They probably green-lit the show to prove the other execs wrong
Same thing with Ren & Stimpy
The 2 shows are 100% connected!
Makes you wonder if Nick's founder had a premonition that her network was going to go downhill and wanted to escape while she still could...
Interesting to think about
As long as they hire pedophiles and mistreat creators who could potentially create the next "SpongeBob" Nickelodeon won't ever recover!
And rebooting Ren & Stimpy for Comedy Central with their animation studio producing it is NOT the solution
If anything that will just hurt their good standings with viewers who are shocked that a KIDS' ANIMATION STUDIO is producing a show for an ADULT NETWORK
Don't worry, it shocked me too!
I literally said "WHAT?!" and had to do a double-take
That would be like Cartoon Network making a show for CNN or TNT
Or Disney Channel making a show for Freeform or ABC
It's simply wrong!
I don't care if Ren & Stimpy is the entire reason Nick Animation Studio even exists (really, look it up!)
I'll tell you the condensed version of the story:
In 1992 John K was fired from Nickelodeon due to failing to meet deadlines
But is that HIS fault or THEIRS?
John K liked to procrastinate just like I do
I will NEVER create my own cartoon because I wouldn't be able to handle the pressure
I'd rather create video games which is a more fun working environment than animation
Perhaps John Kricfalusi couldn't handle it and collapsed under pressure
Especially if he has bipolar disorder like he says
I'm autistic so there's no way I can handle the stress that comes with making and keeping a cartoon popular!
Nickelodeon is notorious for short deadlines which is also a huge issue with SpongeBob SquarePants and probably why Stephen Hillenburg quit after the first movie
Another reason why high popularity is a BAD thing!
The more popular your show, the faster you have to crank out episodes
And if you're the creator that means you carry the whole burden of the show's production on your shoulders!
Maintaining a runaway hit cartoon would be as stressful as being the President of the United States
It's better for a show to be a moderate hit vs a major hit
Then you don't have to worry about stuff like deadlines or executive meddling
Hillenburg much like Kricfalusi collapsed under pressure
I can see why he walked away
If I were in his shoes, I would too
Constantly having to maintain a popular TV show is HARD
I can't do that, so I'll never make my own cartoon
A show might be popular and bring in money but have you ever considered the psychological toll it must take on the creators?
This might be why more & more creators are forgoing television animation and releasing their shows on the Internet
I believe we are starting to see the slow death of traditional network-driven animation
Nobody needs to deal with all the stress that comes with a successful show
Not Stephen Hillenburg
Not John Kricfalusi
How Klasky and Csupo were able to survive Rugrats' reign is a mystery...
That is the NUMBER ONE reason I believe with every fiber of my being that SpongeBob is too big for its own good!
If the show were a moderate success then none of these rants would exist because it would be ancient history by now
Rugrats was a major success but not to the level of SpongeBob SquarePants so it's less problematic
Ren & Stimpy was a moderate success
John K was the creator but NOT the reason this show succeeded
After he got fired, co-creator Bob Camp decided to take over and this lead to the formation of a new animation house in Burbank called Games Animation which would eventually come to be known as the "Nickelodeon Animation Studio"
Maybe this is just things coming full-circle since Nick Animation is returning to the show that basically built them but I'm not sure
It's still not right
It feels like a desperation move
I am tired of Viacom-CBS recycling old IP instead of creating new ones that prove to be long-lasting hits like they did in the 90's!
Where are the new juggernauts (besides Loud House)?
On another note, wouldn't it be funny if SpongeBob and The Loud House were produced at Games Animation rather than NAS?
Can a TV channel "jump the shark"?
Because I believe Nick just did!
This is the final nail in the coffin for Nickelodeon
I am NEVER watching the "Pedophile Paradise Network" EVER AGAIN!!!
I thought they wanted to distance themselves from Ren & Stimpy after the revelations with John K?
Why would they decide to return to this IP?
Are they seriously THAT desperate for a hit show that they would resort to reviving this ancient cartoon?!
Things have to change soon because I can't survive another decade of SpongeBob SquarePants!
I think Nick is pushing SpongeBob so hard BECAUSE of Ren & Stimpy
I bet the true reason they love this show is due to its heavy R&S connections
Also, I'm willing to bet the "Bob" in SpongeBob's name is a reference to Bob Camp the aforementioned co-creator of Ren & Stimpy
The "SpongeBoy" mop copyright story thing is probably fabricated by Nickelodeon to keep people from finding out the character's REAL origins!
Making Stephen Hillenburg being a pedophile even MORE possible
Thanks for reading!
How do YOU feel about Nick hiring pedophiles to work for them?
Post your thoughts in the comments below
See you later!

Please disregard all the "Stephen Hillenburg pedophile" stuff and focus on where I say that the success of SpongeBob and Ren & Stimpy took a toll on Hillenburg and John K!
This is the transcript for an upcoming video I am making about Nickelodeon's secret history of harboring pedos
