Plot Synopsis

SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS is an animated comedy series that follow the nautical and nonsensical adventures of the world's most lovable sponge, the eternal optimist SpongeBob, and his starfish sidekick, Patrick. Though they have the best intentions, these BFFs are always causing trouble in Bikini Bottom...and plenty of laughs. When he's not at the Krusty Krab grilling up epic Krabby Patties, SpongeBob can be found jellyfishing with Patrick, blowing bubbles, or annoying his favorite neighbor, Squidward.

Nickelodeon paid tribute to 20 years of SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS with a one-hour mixed live-action and animation special, "SpongeBob's Big Birthday Blowout," where SpongeBob and Patrick tour the surface world. For the first time, the voice talent behind SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Sandy, Squidward and Plankton play live-action doppelganger versions of the animated characters they voice, along with guest star David Hasselhoff. Additional guest stars in the special include Kel Mitchell, Jack Griffo, and Daniella Perkins. The special -- which premiered Friday, July 12, 2019 from 7-8pm ET/PT on Nickelodaon -- featured Patrick and SpongeBob taking a journey to the surface world, where the duo come across a few familiar faces during lunchtime rush at The Trusty Slab restaurant. Meanwhile the Bikini Bottom residents set up a surprise birthday party for SpongeBob. Donning his famous lifeguard attire, Hasselhoff guests as himself in the special, where he runs into a little trouble in an ocean kayak and on the beach. Hasselhoff also notably played himself in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. His return is a special nod to his original performance for fans around the world.

THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SPONGE ON THE RUN premiered on Thursday, March 4, 2021 on Paramount+, the same day the streaming service launched. In the first-ever all CGI SpongeBob motion picture event, SpongeBob SquarePants, his best friend Patrick, and the Bikini Bottom gang star in their most epic adventure movie yet! When SpongeBob's beloved pet snail Gary goes missing, a path of clues leads SpongeBob and Patrick to the powerful King Poseidon, who has Gary held captive in the Lost City of Atlantic City. On their mission to save Gary, SpongeBob and his pals team up for a heroic and hilarious journey where they discover nothing is stronger than the power of friendship. From Paramount Animation and Nickelodeon Movies, in association with MRC Film, THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SPONGE ON THE RUN is a United Plankton Pictures production. Directed and written by Tim Hill from a story by Tim Hill and Jonathan Aibel & Glenn Berger, the film features the voice talent of Tom Kenny, Awkwafina, Matt Berry, Clancy Brown, Rodger Bumpass, Bill Fagerbakke, Carolyn Lawrence, Mr. Lawrence, and Reggie Watts.

On Friday, January 13, 2023 at 7pm ET/PT, Nickelodeon premiered "SpongeBob SquarePants Presents The Tidal Zone," a one-hour special that features four tales of undersea exploits that defy explanation. Cross over into new dimensions where minds switch, bodies shrink, and robots rise in...The Tidal Zone.

On Monday, February 5, 2024 at 7pm ET/PT, Nickelodeon premiered "SpongeBob's Super Bowl Party," a new half-hour SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS special. The Super Bowl is here, and Patrick, SpongeBob, and Gary are throwing a party! Fans are invited to join their favorite Bikini Bottom residents as they prepare for the Super Bowl and get a glimpse at the town's game day rituals.

Then, on Sunday, February 11, 2024 at 6:30pm ET/3:30pm PT, Nickelodeon presents "Super Bowl LVIII Live from Bikini Bottom," the first-ever Super Bowl alternate telecast. The program features enhanced graphics and advanced augmented reality, bringing the historic Slime-filled telecast to SpongeBob SquarePants' undersea home. For the first time, an animated SpongeBob SquarePants (voiced by Tom Kenny) and Patrick Star (voiced by Bill Fagerbakke) joined by CBS Sports analyst Nate Burleson and play-by-play announcer Noah Eagle will be live in the booth to call the game. Sandy Cheeks (voiced by Carolyn Lawrence) will make her sideline reporting debut, while Larry the Lobster (voiced by Mr. Lawrence) provides live commentary. Plus, NFL SLIMETIME's Young Dylan and Dylan Schefter also report live from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nev. Dora the Explorer (voiced by Diana Zermeno) and Boots (voiced by Asher Colton Spence) help explain penalty calls during the game.
