I'm 1000% down to rewrite these episodes.
How is this the first crossover I've seen Kamp koral in a spongebob episode, I've seen Patrick star show in Kamp koral
I saw the Three of episodes
Good luck
The episodes are fine, but this is the most pointless crossover they don’t even connect (mostly just as a ratings trap and they connect from Dana grandpa
A better way for the last part would be if the grand pat segments spread out in ad breaks so that way it flows easyeir I would have much preferred that
I would never think SpongeBob would get a crossover with Spongebob. Never expected that.
Lol that'd be amazing
@@TheAlphaJayShow now if only other shows could do the same too. Like the owl house and owl house or Rick and morty and Rick and morty
@@jossuecabrera8611 Yea lol
I mean doodle bob
@@jossuecabrera8611 wait the owl house and the owl house😂😂
Karen and Patrick swapping places could be one of the funniest episodes ever, principally if they get in the original show scenario.
It really could have
@@TheAlphaJayShow hello
Credit where credit is due too, any show that does this idea and has the original characters keep their voices but with the delivery of a different character earns props instead of just having the other actor's voice come out of the changed body.
I thought it was perfect in the episode. I only wish the ending was slightly different. Everyone acting like Patrick is too derivative of Salsa Imbecilic. I wish it ended with all the characters stuck in each other's bodies after the machine breaking.
@@motherplayer I'm not saying it was bad, but it could be even more funny: that touch was very neat, which actually makes it slightly more disappointed, 'cause they get what few shows would just overlook so hard.
I expected it to be a crossover with old SpongeBob like in Family Guy's "Back to the Pilot". It would have been very cool getting to see modern SpongeBob interacting with Bikini Bottom as it was 23 years ago.
I would've even been okay with 2D and 3D SpongeBob interacting. Make it a Sponge Bob Power Hour.
*14 years ago
Maybe 25 anniversary?
@@heiress. i took it he meant the amount of in-universe years from kamp koral to the modern sb show. the new spin-offs add continuity that constantly contradicts itself so i haven't decided how consistent this is, but pearl was shown as a 1 year old and spongebob went from 9 to 10 making him just under 9 years older than her in modern time... which is fucked considering they were kind of a thing before the new creative members came in but like i said inconsistency
@@miragenights801 What? You thought he meant that? No thanks.
Edit: Keep the plot to main series ONLY and keep it SIMPLE. Modern SpongeBob goes back to the Help Wanted Pilot. Maybe Modern Plankton makes a Time Machine in order to stop Pilot SpongeBob from applying for the job at the Krusty Krabs. Modern SpongeBob tries to stop him. That’s a 20 minute ratings juggernaut right there. Hire me, Nick.
“What inspired you to disrespect Stephen Hillenberg’s legacy twice in one episode?”
“Money!”
Money
Nice reference to the first SpongeBob movie👍.
Stupid.
@@TheAlphaJayShowyup
“What inspired you to speak for a dead man even though you did not personally know him whatsoever?”
“Attention!”
Really says a lot about the current state of Nickelodeon's lineup when their first crossover in years only had a single IP in it.
Lmaooo yes
And to make matters worse, as seen on the video it barely crossed over, so it was just.... background white noise
To be fair, Hillenburg had a rule of no crossovers. So by crossing over Spongebob with itself (or rather it's spin offs), it's technically not breaking his rule.
And one where they had to loophole around it.
@@worthybutter2004 Except sadly he’s gone. And with Kamp Kodak and Patrick show it broke one of Stephens rule:No spin-offs.
My main issue is that all three shows feel way too similar. Besides one is 3D and the other is a bit more surreal, That’s it.
Incredibly similar
But then you could say that about all of Nick’s spin-offs and, frankly, most spin-offs in general these days. They just feel like they have to have as much from the parent show as possible, often to their determent (see Mando hijacking The Book of Boba Fett, for instance)
@@bullmonty764 Honestly, I wish spinoffs in general worked more like Batman Beyond. A show that was set in the same world, and shared a similar overall feeling to the original show, but had its own cast and brought new ideas to the table.
I highly doubt they would do it but i would love a spin off show that focus on dennis.
It would focus denns and new characters, it would have an on going story and a more serious tone.
I still don't understand how these are spin-offs. Like, obviously, yes, on paper they're different shows, but functionally it's just more SpongeBob SquarePants
Here’s how I would’ve written a SpongeBob Universe Crossover:
Sandy made a new invention to help her travel to different dimensions, but SpongeBob and Patrick accidentally activates it and travels to the other two show. The two meets their younger self at Kamp Koral and wonder why they look different animation wise (Much like how the Jimmy/Timmy Power Hour did), then they go to the Patrick Show Universe and question the alternate reality where Patrick has a step sister. And for the climax as they try to head back, they run into other shows (Loud House, Casagrandes, Big Nate,) and even they old season of the Original SpongeBob, back when they used Cells. Now tell me fans would pay big bucks for that kind of SpongeBob Universe Crossover
That'd be several steps better than what they went with
@@TheAlphaJayShow definitely.
Much like JImmy/Timmy would there be a villain ?
@@nicholassims9837 who knows, possibly, possibly not
Another way it could have done it is have Grandpat still trying getting home but instead of minor cameos in the other shows and a short of him getting back . Have it instead he interacts with the other characters and they help him while Grandpat helps them with a problem.
Heres how it goes Patrick Show: . GrandPat goes through the door and Patrick and Squidnia though a device tries to help him but Grandpat is too Stubborn to listen and goes in wacky places.
Kamp Kora :GrandPat is in CGI and meets the younger version of his grandson who doesn't know who he is as he has no grandpa but KK Patrick warms up to Grandpat and with the help of Spongebob , Sandy , and Karen build a machine to get Him back but it malfunctions.
Spongebob : Grandpat gets back home with the help of all 3 shows cast.
The SpongeBob franchise needs a lot of new writers and artists. Every single show has the same staff and tone.
The exact same
Not really Normal Spongebob and Camp Koral are Hilarious. The Patrick Show is awful. There is no humor what so ever. It's Uncle Grandpa random and weird= funny humor rather than the witty dialogue mixed with slapstick SpongeBob is known for. Muppet Show and Animaniacs it ain't.
I feel like the writers need to stop taking past ideas and modernizing… it just falls flat. Even my little sister doesn’t think newer SpongeBob is funny and that’s just sad tbh 😬
@@icecreamhero2375 except uncle grandpa is good
@@Vitallor No it's not. It's mediocre and occasionally has its moments. I really like The episode where they are stuck on the escalator and Pizza Steve's Diary. UG does feel like a better show by comparison.
Honestly, the entire concept of Welcome to Binary Bottom has me want Nickelodeon to do another sci-fi show. We haven't gotten one since My Life as a Teenage Robot, and Invader Zim was the only other one besides that.
Technically, they have a Star Trek animated show
@@TheAlphaJayShow Oh yeah, I forgot about that!, Alpha I was mainly thinking new properties. Also I probably forgot it since that's mostly on Paramount Plus and not the main channel.
*jimmy neutron noises*
@@Cynadyde How did I forget Jimmy Neutron? I guess that one didn't occur to me because Zim and MLAATR have a very mechanical aesthetic to them, while Jimmy Neutron is more "small town with one guy making gadgets". I suppose it would technically be sci-fi, just not to the degree that Zim, MLAATR, and Welcome to Binary Bottom are.
@@Sexydinosaurballs anti girls club
honestly i'm more insulted that the name of the crossover was a reference to The Twilight Zone and yet we only got a couple episodes that felt like Twilight Zone plots
i mean.... i guess?
I feel a Fairly Oddparents crossover could’ve worked during both show’s golden years
Absolutely
No that is not possible
Maybe if it happened in the early 2000s when FOP was still good.
@@PeterGriffin11 that's what he said basically
@@cockballs7415 I see that now. Don't know how I missed it.
I really wish they would have done a crossover back in 2000s when they had iconic shows TO crossover with.
This video is SO necessary. I think slapstick humor is what modern spongebob is mostly now and it got worse with the spin offs. When i feel interactions the sitcom feel story and reaction shots were the most memorable parts to me. I actually liked the bus joke of the demon in the end of "you're going to pay... phone". would love a rewrite of these rho
Appreciate it!
It feels like theyre trying to add as much random stuff and loud noises as possible so it gives little children sensory overloads and makes them want to watch more
Now we know why Stephen said he's not interested in crossovers
Lol yeah
too big a genius for them
The most insane thing in this special to me is the fact Squidward as a robot is earlier to work than SpongeBot
I gotta say, it really weird to look back at season 4-9 of Spongebob and compare it to pretty much every season and spin off afterwards, feels like an entirely different show.
It's really weird to look at episodes like Nasty Patty now or any episode from seasons 2-3 and think, "God, is this the same show?"
@@eatatjoes6751sponge boomer.
yeah
the new seasons are so much better
Surprisingly, the episode where Alpha Jay shoots Patrick with a gun, to obtain mayonnaise was the funniest one out of all of them.
this might be melodramatic, but I feel like spongebob and family guy have the same problem. You can go back to early episodes where these characters almost felt like people. They had genuine and consistent emotions, wants, and struggles. now they just think or act however the nonsense plot needs them to in order to fill the timeslot. the need for constant creation whose only purpose is one-time consumption before being forgotten makes me weep for creatives and their true ambitions.
I wouldn’t mind seeing more from Binary Bottom if a bit more fleshed out.
8:55 Little does Jay know that’s exactly what they’re doing. These episodes were produced before the shows were changed from having a group of people work on all of them to having different staff, so it’s not indicative of what the new crews are capable of, but The Patrick Star Show straight up got a new showrunner, new storyboarders and it’s being board-driven now. Honestly kinda excited for what the new writers/storyboarders are gonna do.
Doing two years into it?
You don't think a meeting was had where people sat down and assigned staff roles to each show knowing that these people were already working on one show? The show that generates millions in merch alone?
Don't get your hopes up.
Kinda sad the crossover was slept on until the 2020’s. The potential for a great show crossover in the 2000’s would’ve been nearly endless but sadly those Nicktoons have come and gone.
The Nicktoons Unite games: *Are we a joke to you?*
Oh wait, those are video games, not actual TV specials.
@@ExtremeWreck And they would've worked perfectly as specials, too.
It’s not true that Hillenburg said he didn’t want spin-offs.
I didn't really think the crossover would be five episodes, instead I thought the three shows where going to be in the same setting and that characters from each show would be in different art styles. Kinda disappointing.😢
That would've been interesting too
How to make the plot actually relevant: regive Sandy's portal and have Sandy explore the different worlds and analyze them into a small journal of sorts which she looses in a world maybe the robot one in which karen and sandy have to work together with their smarts and get the journal back
i would watch it
To me it's hard to imagine modern SpongeBob coming up with a better joke than "SpongeBob, my legs are frozen solid, you're gonna have to cut them off with a saw.
No Patrick I can't do that!
Why not?!
Because I already cut off my own arms!'
The funniest bit was calling "Goo Lagoon" "Lube Lagoon" and only because sounds like something that would be used in a Spinge Binge ytp.
Well it can’t even count as a crossover b/c it’s just 3 spin offs mixed into 1 episode.
3 spin-offs lol
Huh, interesting, so basically a Crossover that wasn’t much of a Crossover? Well, it’s unfortunate that it ended being so lackluster, I do wonder what could’ve been, so i would be very much interested to know what kind of ideas.
Also, Karen being a potential masochist confirmed?
Karen 100% likes pain
8:56 they should have most of the veterans in the og show so that the other shows feel like they have their own distinguishable voice
That'd be a great idea as well
patchy the pirate being in an episode felt like more of a crossover than this
Honestly, this supposedly crossover episode is the kid-friendly equivalent of the hurricane episodes of Family Guy, the Cleveland Show, and American Dad. At least American Dad showed both Peter and Cleveland, even though Cleveland is part of Family Guy.
Also American Dad exists as a show separate from Family Guy that has a different tone/reason to watch.
1:32 Did you somehow miss the end of the episode, where it turns out [spoilers]
They were actually in a microscope petri dish monitored by Sandy, so they technically didn’t escape even with toon logic. In fact, it seemed like it made things worse by somehow ending up there
I did see that.
Now, how did they get there in the first place?
@@TheAlphaJayShowWell that’s simple. “Fuck you.”
Honestly, it feels like the ending to Extreme Spots, as in feeling like the plot just gives up and stops, conclusion. People argued that modern SpongeBob feels like a Ren & Stimpy wannabe, which is funny, cause I remember watching one episode of that show, which also just kinda gives up and stops.
Speaking of plot just not feeling it today and calling sick, [more spoilers for this crossover]
I’m super bummed that the Sandy robot amalgamation didn’t pop back up throughout the later segments. It honestly would’ve been kinda cool to have this dimension-hopping abomination reach the main universe, and start a higher-stakes climax where the main show’s cast teams up with Grandpa Star to fumble their way into defeating it and save the day.
I think pay phone would’ve been more fun if they put the Flying Dutchman in the payphone. He’s said before that he’d take Mr Krabs’ soul if he didn’t become less cheap. When he gets discovered, he could’ve given Mr Krabs’ an ultimatum. Be less cheap and he’ll leave or “be a cheapskate to Davy Jones locker!!” Then Spongebob could pull out some random thing the Dutchman wants or scares him away.
spongebob could just show the dutchman his brain again, it worked last time
as an avid spongebob lover, i was really wondering how they would do a "crossover" with three of the shows, because since its all technically from the same universe, but the crossover part being just grandpat trying to find his way home and being on the screen for 5 seconds literally was the most disappointing thing ever... i thought we were gonna get like a jimmy neutron/timmy turner type thing but i guess i put my expectations too high. regardless thought this video put my EXACT thoughts about the the tidal zone to life, and i absolutely agree that binary bottom was the best ep out of all of them, aesthetically pleasing and seeing how each character was different still even as robots, but at the same time it did feel SUUUPER super empty plot wise, and i wish they did more with the episode cause it definitely had potential
I was gonna say “why are they going with crossovers when Stephen said they shouldn’t, are they going against his wishes again?” But I mean if they are doing crossovers with themselves then I guess that’s fine.
“You can’t disrespect Stephen twice in one episode!”
Nick: I’m gonna do what’s called a double-disrespect.
Thats true
It genuinely makes me sad how ever since stephen passed away nick has just disrespected what he wanted the series to be into
He said he didn’t see them happening. “I don’t see it happening” ≠ “I don’t want it to happen.”
@@vanderquakSPDon’t defend Nickelodeon.
Literally the MOMENT it was announced Stephen passed Kamp Koral started production when Stephen said specifically, NO SPIN-OFFS.
Nick is filled with greedy bastards.
as a spongebob fan, I liked the crossover special, but I totally understand where your coming from.
Im glad you enjoy it. There's so much new SpongeBob that new SB fans are in kind of a golden period.
I feel like we should've gotten a nicktoons unite crossover tv movie. I remember as a kid thinking it would happen after unite became a thing. What always threw me off with nickelodeon is why we kept getting crossovers with just Rugrats and The Fairly OddParents ? Rugrats crossed over with Aaahh Real Monsters and the Wild Thornberrys. The Fairly OddParents crossed over with Jimmy Neutron (3x), and Bunsen is a Beast.
A Nicktoons Unite movie would be top tier
@@TheAlphaJayShow the sad thing is there's not much to unite with how downhill nick has gone recently
What Hillenburg's rule of no crossovers?
Honestly this crossover feels like it’s restricted down for kids to enjoy and *only* for kids to enjoy
I'd be interested to see how many people are viewing/spending money on SpongeBob compared to other shows/YT channels/TikTok, etc.
or people who are just really obsessed with spongebob (like me, its my favorite, newer seasons are shit but oh well.) but even so it felt kinda off and almost rushed, :/
Rod Serling is laughing in his self-made purgatory........
Bro the "It's better than playing a video game where you shoot Patrick for mayonnaise" line might be a better idea than some of the episodes
Interviewer: What makes disrespect a man's dead wish?
Nickelodeon: Money
It really seems like that
People believed both of the current spinoffs were exploitative. Well, it doesn't seem like they have done much to convince people otherwise. And we know why these exist... they don't have any sort of respect for the audience, given how little they try to compliment the original.
Well said!
Seeing that last clip as someone with 0 context is truly wild
Lmaooo
As someone who loved SpongeBob as a kid and The Twilight Zone as an adult, The Tidal Zone is an idea I absolutely love. The episodes may not have been good, but the idea was there. Actually, the zany world of SpongeBob where anything can happen lends itself extremely well to the spirit of The Twilight Zone.
6:05 spongebob staff: *WRITE THAT DOWN!!*
I think a better crossover between these episodes would be if Karen-Patrick from the Camp Coral episode built a dimensional wormhole to one-up Sandy, only for Patrick-Karen to mess up the controls and send himself into each episode before returning right as the device runs out of power, and with no way to recharge the device there's no proof to show Mr. Krabs.
The switch ideas actually implements the concept of old spongebob concepts I’d honestly see those ideas come to life
“SpongeBob’s FIRST Crossover”
Nicktoons Unite: Am I a joke to you?
Nickelodeon would like for you to play All Star Brawl than Nicktoons Unite
@@TheAlphaJayShow But Battle For Volcano Island is more worthy.
4:59 "don't drop them ;)"
How is it a crossover when it’s all within one show technically?
Crossover of different shows I guess
@@TheAlphaJayShow I guess but I wouldn’t really count it since they all exist within one universe
@@stickthelanding4785 Yea I agree.. this is like Donkey Kong being in most Mario spinoffs is a crossover
Not to mention they're all exactly the same show but with a slightly different coat of paint.
SpongeBob SquarePants
SpongeBob SquarePants but Patrick gets more screen time
SpongeBob SquarePants but it's in a CGI camp setting
Their main marketing gimmick is their only defining trait, nothing else makes them stand out from one another. We're just stuck with 3 SpongeBobs now.
they could have at least had fun with the concept like having their older selves meet their younger selves. we could have seen adult spongebob in the camp koral style etc but they barely connect or have any actual crossover. the biggest crossover just seems to be patricks grandpa and who cares about him? didn't they have a cartoon network "crossover" like this where aliens or something invade the different shows but the shows never actually meet each other?
Ngl what I thought was gonna happen was GrandPat getting lost for a whole hour, like he goes from his show to Camp Koral then to regular Spongebob and then back his own show and there could've been hundreds of ideas for how that could've went. And this was a Spongebob crossover and each character was made to be different they could've had the all the Patrick's or all the Spongebob's meeting each other along the way and that could've went somewhere.
There's sooo many ideas
Another SB-129 or Dunces and Dragons episode could have been in this crossover
There’s no weight or punch to the slapstick anymore in newer seasons of SpongeBob anymore. It’s all just wall to wall slapstick with no subtly. Earlier season had restraint.
An example of great slapstick was that one scene from ‘No Weenies Allowed’ when Patrick beats up himself. “No please… HAVE MERCY!!”
There would never be a scene like that in modern SpongeBob.
There's barely any slapstick in this crossover. I don't even know why he mentioned it. I literally don't remember any slapstick moment from Welcome to Binary Bottom.
Squidward and Gary within the entirety of that episode???
@@TheAlphaJayShow Maybe I could consider the scene where they break a giant hole in a brick wall and they destroy some cars slapstick, but that's two very short scenes, NOT THE ENTIRETY OF THE EPISODE.
Also it wasn't even slapstick *comedy.*
“Something, something…old SpongeBob good. Something, something… new SpongeBob bad”
That’s all I’m getting here.
Although I haven't watched these episodes myself, I definitely agree with your idea of spreading out the crew across shows while also bringing in new people.
From what it seems in recent, the crew's seemed kinda strained for ideas across each show, and I think that goes to show that having essentially the same crew across 3 shows is not effective. Do something similar to season 9's second half, where more people are brought in who grew up with classic episodes are brought on board as writers/storyboarders for each of the three shows, thus allowing for less strain across crew members, and consistent work outputs from each show, as opposed to having each show essentially at a standstill due to the multi-tasking the current crew has to do.
Nicely done review otherwise.
Oh, one more thing, I'm really not sure how to feel about the main show promoting/implementing things from the spin-offs in the show in excess, I feel it's just kind of obnoxious.
That'd be amazing honestly
“That’s it? That’s the crossover special? That was just a bunch of lazy writing!”
Pretty much!
"SPONGEBOB BETRAYED US!"
3:45 red mist be like
From what i've seen, Karen being the only fish in Binary Bottom and Patrick bringing in variations of him from other episodes were the highlights for me.
Agreed, when I was done watching it I just felt kinda… in the middle. Because I half liked it and half hated it. There’s still a lot of cool stuff tho like how in the parody intro you can see that SpongeBob kinda looks like the season 1 version but that’s about it. I liked 2 out of the 4 stories. Basically it was mid.
Super mid
SpongeBob meets SpongeBob isn’t even a decent idea for a crossover but the fact Nick can’t even commit to it. Actually, not even the first time for this network
I don't get why they also included the tidal thing in the patrick star show when the show is already random/nonsensical in the first place, making an episode where patrick actually makes a show without anything dumb going on is more tidal zone worthy than what we got
I'm still confused about what the theme was supposed to be here
@@TheAlphaJayShow the whole concept of the tidal zone is really weird to explain, even if the idea is just Twilight zone parodies, the last one I think is not even a part of any Twilight zone story
It should have been a What if like the robots one or the algae is always greener
@@TheAlphaJayShow It's a reference to the classic TV show called the Twilight Zone. It was a horror show that was often spooky or had a moral at the end.
@@TheAlphaJayShow "What is the theme here? Underwater? It's boring!"
I'd love to see better writing versions! This should be cool.
With enough support, I can do it
5:46 "ohh pain, facinating. come on. Kick me for more pain." Lol
Crossover? Crossover with what? My life as a teenage robot?
Let’s be real. We all knew this would be bad
Its unfortunate
Hoenstly it worse than i thought it was gonna be i thought it was gonna be a crossiver between spongebib and 2 spin off shows i couldn't care less about but it wasn't even a crossover.
I thought the crossover was ok at best. It really didn’t feel like a crossover but more like an anthology episode with a slight over-arching plot as none of episodes featured really “crossed over”. I feel like this was just a total ratings trap as these were most likely meant to be separate episodes for each of the shows but Nick forced them to make it a “crossover” event. Also the whole “3-night event” thing was a total lie as all they did was replay the episode again at the same time. I thought this was gonna be a “Wishology” type thing where it was a 3-part episode just split over 3 nights. But no.. it wasn’t. Overall it was ok. The episodes themselves were good imo but everything surrounding the special was kinda bad a miss leading.
It definitely wasn't the worst thing in the world, but it could've had a lot more done to make it memorable
@@TheAlphaJayShow Yeah as I said, the episodes were good. I just thought the advertising around it was misleading
6:04 I think more critics need to do this. If your frustrated that an idea isn't well executed you should give your ideas or ask your followers what are there ideas. Because as a critic you should want the production team to do better for the sake of the show or the sake of creative betterment.
P.S here to hoping your new channel goes well.
Why did we need 3 Spongebob shows again?
Does anybody know?
Who is watching these other than 5 year olds with tv babysitters-
Wait...answered my own question
Lol
I think the patrick show is just wacky in its own world but i like them all.
A skin in wrinkle time was EXTREMELY funny and memorable because of the grandpat sea star opening😂🤣
If Karen and Patrick switched places during Camp Coral, Spongebob might have been in the cash register, and Patrick be the cook, just like that episode Bummer Vacation.
That'd be interesting too
this is the problem with modern spongebob there to focused on relying on the past instead of making new ideas and even when they try they don't flesh them out enough mordern spongebob is just so confusing
i think the appreciation of pain thing has to do with the fact that as a machine she cant really feel, she can "express" but that doesn't mean she really understands it, its an ai mimicking behaviors not a chemical reaction in a pile of flesh, and not to sound edgy or anything but there's even a three days grace song about wanting to feel pain instead of the emptiness of a machine.
This should've been a 22-minute special instead of a standard 11-minute episode.
Nickelodeon just doesn’t know what to do with SpongeBob anymore
They only see it as a money maker and nothing else.
Binary Bottom wrote Gary out of character. He was clingy to SpongeBob when in A Pal For Gary and every other episode he was just vibing at home. Gary is supposed to be more aloof. Karen being a fish did make me chuckle though. The giant Sandy head just felt weird, unfunny and out of nowhere.
True, and Gary has some banger episodes, definitely could've been written better
With that logic, Sandy was super out-of-character and almost any robot character in the episodes was at least a bit out-of-character.
@@Pablo.673 That Sandy thing was out of character. That's one of the reasons why I hate it. It's not funny, I don't get it and it's too random. It's not a joke it's a non sequitur. Also the characters were all acting the same as they normally do except they were robots. SpongeBob loved his Job, Mr. Krabs liked Money, Squidward was annoyed with SpongeBob. Sandy and Gary were the only outliers. Why did they make the tough scientist Who loves karate a giant head that mergers with all the other robots. It makes no sense it's just stupid.
@@icecreamhero2375 SpongeBot and Pat-Tron weren't like their original versions. Maybe SquidBot and RoboKrabs were more similar to the original characters.
@@Pablo.673 You are really grasping at straws. Robot Patrick just got out of his rock. They were clearly meant to be just like their original versions only they are robots. I like most SpongeBob episodes but this was definitely one of their worst. Also what is the purpose of having their robot versions act out of character. How is that comedic.
Imagine if they had a splatoon crossover, I mean they had a splatfest of SpongeBob vs Patrick so it’s not that bad.
They could've made a Nicktoons Unite crossover.
Banger idea
Speaking of your point at 4:40, Family Guy writers also need to realize that new family guy shouldn't be repeating jokes.
Yeah, I agree with what you said about binary bottom. This is really creative and some visual jokes land but I just wish they did something with it. Like imagine if Spongebob somehow ended in this reality where everyone is a robot with no feelings and he had to teach his counterpart the joy of freedom and feelings while the rest of town chases him down for being an organic lifeform (you would have to delete the Karen joke but whatever) , I literally came up with that in 5 minutes. You don't even have to change the visuals and the amazing voice acting.
Patrick isn't supposed to be totally stupid, he's just supposed to be normal, but really clumbsy and sometimes dumb.
I’d be done to see how you come up with writing these episodes AJ. Another argument could be the writers need more time. Are test audiences not a thing anymore?
If you want to storyboard and rewrite these, I will absolutely provide the voices for Patrick, Squidward (the one I’m best at imitating) and SpongeBob.
I didn’t even realize this was a crossover I thought it was just weird
3:51 is the name of the Creepypasta
As I expected. A typical cash in that fell flat on it's behind.
Absolutely
i didnt even know these were supposed to be crossovers rippp
thats how you know its bad
This reminds me of when FOx did the whole HUrricane event with Family Guy, Cleveland Show, and American Dad but done bad.
I DID like Welcome to Binary Bottom, Alpha Jay!.
It was a great look for sure!
same, best!
Of course your idea for "Switch Glitch" works. You actually put thought into what you're writing, instead of copying something that's been done and just then pretend that no one would care.
Appreciate it! Always looking forward to your support
The last several seasons were wasted.
This
I think the only reason it isn't a flesh out crossover is cause Stephen didn't really want a crossover, yet considering that this all takes place in the spongebob universe this is the best we're gonna get, as for the episodes however, yea they could have fleshed it out more
How to fix this episode. Play up the spookiness more. The twilight zone is supposed to be scary. They have made better spooky episodes before. Scardy Pants, Curse of Bikini Bottom, Ghoul Fools etc.
No! Because I’m so disappointed it was mid! Other UA-camrs have been hyping it up for months so I was actually finally excited for something SpongeBob related.
A SpongeBob crossover could've been the talk of 2023 if they did it right
Wow those ideas for the switch glitch you just wrote down from the top of your head I would’ve loved to see something like that in the actual episode in fact maybe I could make it like a kinda fanmade episode don’t worry I’ll give you credit for the ideas if I do make this one day
to be honest I knew it wouldn't be that good coming from spongebobs track record
Yeah, I agree that this special could have been a LOT better. However, if there is one saving grace for it, it's the episode You're Going to Pay Phone. It was funny, and it was nice to see Mr. Krabs actually get punished this time around.
To be honest from my perspective I doesn't feel like a crossover since all shows use most of the same characters
Well said!
The First crossover was should have been done different because the first crossover could of been done as something different because of how long we were waiting for SpongeBob to do a crossover like other shows
Well said!
@@TheAlphaJayShow thanks!
I think Binary Bottom is the prequel to the future in SB-129
1:50 to be fair „W for Wumbo“ is like top 5 jokes to be ever written
what'd you think was gonna happen, spongebob would suddenly become good again?
There are really good episodes within post-sequel SpongeBob
@@TheAlphaJayShow Yeah, maybe I should give it more of a chance.
@@TheAlphaJayShow even 6-8 have some good episodes
