It is now the highest rated series on nickelodeon. The series narrates the adventures of the title character and his friends in the fictional underwater city in the Bikini Bottom.
Most of the characters are animated sea creatures based on real life species. SpongeBob squarepants is the main character of this series. Character is voiced by Tom Kenny. SpongeBob is a joyful sea sponge, appeared as yellow colored, having big blue eyes with two teeth out of his mouth and a rectangular shaped body.
He usually wears white collared shirt, brown short pants with a red tie. He lives in pineapple house and works as a fry cook in fast food restaurant known as Krusty Krab. The age of SpongeBob squarepants remains a secret to its viewers.
His age is still a mystery. According to the date on which the first episode of the series was on-aired i. May 1, , SpongeBob must be 21 years old. So, SpongeBob squarepants was 13 when the series was first premiered.
This means SpongeBob, in the year , turned 34 years old. Bill Fagerbakke gives his voice to this character. Patrick is an overweight, lazy, pink star fish with pointed head and lives under the rock. He usually wears flower printed short pants. He is the best friend of SpongeBob. He is 22, and likes to drive Squidward crazy. SpongeBob typically wears shiny black shoes that squeak when he walks, with an almost spheric bulge at the front although still a part of the shoe proper, unlike the balls of clown shoes.
He usually wears a pair of white underwear underneath his pants, although he has been seen wearing blue, green, and red underwear with hearts on them all at the same time, nonetheless and even pink to honor his best friend, Patrick. At night, he sometimes wears a green bathrobe, but mostly goes to sleep with his underwear, socks and shoes. When he goes swimming at the Goo Lagoon , he wears a pair of blue swimming trunks although he still wears his underpants, socks and shoes.
He also wears a red bow tie in exchange for his necktie on special occasions. SpongeBob is described as sweet, kind, funny, cheerful, and hard working. He has a buck-toothed grin, an expressive face and square body that compliments his pure and good nature. SpongeBob will rarely knowingly do wrong or harm to anyone except on April Fool's Day and never without remorse. However, he has been known to shout and use "bad words" such as Tartar Sauce , Fish Paste , or Barnacles when angry or frustrated.
Although he is an adult, he has a very childish nature, shown to great effect in the episode " Grandma's Kisses ", at which he is at his most childish, as well as in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.
SpongeBob is very easily overexcited about almost anything, like simple daily tasks and things of which he does not know of such as when Squidward invited him to strike at the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob celebrated for it although he did not know the meaning of the word strike. This, along with his repetitive talking and loud, annoying laughter makes him a huge annoyance to others, especially Mrs. Puff , Squidward and Plankton. Perhaps the most long-running paradox of this character is his strength.
He has been known to have enormous difficulty lifting even the lightest of objects. While he cannot lift light things like stuffed animals, he can still flip Krabby Patties and has been known to tote Patrick around which cannot be an easy task.
There is also the matter of his limited invincibility. When viciously pummeled by a bully, SpongeBob is not hurt; rather than fighting back, he continues to go through his day normally, until the bully is too worn out to keep punching. Gary usually has solutions to help SpongeBob out of his dilemmas.
Also in multiple episodes he seems to have a knack for singing. SpongeBob is ambidextrous; in Procrastination and I'm with Stupid , he can be seen using his left hand to write. And in I Was a Teenage Gary , he remarks that he's "lefty anyway" when he loses his right arm.
In other episodes he uses his right hand as his dominant. SpongeBob has been in jail for ninety days for littering as a result of taking Patrick Star's driving license and ripping it up after Patrick got it his license after his first try SpongeBob has never been able to obtain a license even after multiple times as seen in the episode "Driven to Tears".
He takes his job seriously and also considers it to be his passion. His first words were "May I take your order? SpongeBob works alongside Squidward, much to Squidward's dismay. Squidward manages the cash register for his money-obsessed boss, Mr.
Eugene H. SpongeBob, in some episodes, seems to have attained a celebrity like status in Bikini Bottom for his "masterful" fry cooking.
In the episode " Squid on Strike ", he is referred to as a "legend" by a young fry cook who wants to take his job and is asked to sign the boy's spatula. In another episode, he is offered a job as King Neptune 's fry cook, but turns it down because Patrick was forbidden to go with him. SpongeBob is rarely late for his job. SpongeBob also failed to attend on time in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie , where he was several minutes late after eating ice cream all night with Patrick at Goofy Goobers, and being passed over for a promotion.
Great question. He's old enough to drive, but I don't know what the law about that is underwater. CrowTRobot you're right about not knowing the rules of underwater. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. We don't really know what rules fictional underwater realms play by, and to further confuse matters, I'm not even sure how relatively old SpongeBob is because, according to Wiki, the lifespan of a sea sponge varies greatly : Sponges in temperate regions live for at most a few years, but some tropical species and perhaps some deep-ocean ones may live for years or more.
However, it appears that the show's creator has kept SpongeBob's age vague on purpose : Although SpongeBob's driver's license says his birthdate is July 14, , Hillenburg joked that he is fifty in "sponge years".
Improve this answer. Walt Walt It sounds like he is both 28 job, house and 13 childish nature at the same time. Hey, the Simpson kids also say and do things that are way beyond their years sometimes. So maybe you're right and it's some sort of compromise. SpongeBob is probably a Stylissa massa. I could only find that it lives for over 2 months.
This totally makes sense to me, my driver's license says 50, my wife says 11 going on 9, and when my back is OK I feel 25; when it hurts, more like Gavin Trout Gavin Trout 19 1 1 bronze badge.
Can you expand? How does the body guard episode make him 14? I've never seen the show so I don't understand the reference.
