In the Pacific Ocean, there is a small town called Bikini Bottom. The residents of Bikini Bottom are all quirky sea creatures. One particularly funny townsperson is SpongeBob SquarePants, a sea sponge who dwells in a pineapple. A new recruit at Bikini Bottom's most popular restaurant, the Krusty Krab, he lives a crazy life with his hard-headed neighbor and friend Patrick. His other neighbor Squidward is a sarcastic, boring octopus who can't stand SpongeBob. At the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob works for the money-obsessed Eugene Krabs. While Mr. Krabs is often harsh to his employees, he is clever and cares deeply for his own daughter Pearl. In his time off, SpongeBob attends Mrs. Puff's Boating School and hangs out with his other friend Sandy the Squirrel.

Over it's course run, various characters created specifically for the show like Maja, Patrick Jr. and Adam, and more obscure characters like SpongeBert and Patch joined the gang, the first three quickly becoming popular within the community fanbase.

History
The show was initially created in 1999 by EinsteinBlllllllllll and produced by as a series of seven shorts for the Nickelodeon show ''Oh Yeah! Cartoons''. The shorts received low ratings so they were cancelled, but reruns eventually became high in demand so the series officially began as a proper television series in 2014, with the episode 'Shadow', staring a 20-episode season. The show received steady ratings until Nickelodeon halted airing the show after Episode 10a of the second season, resulting in a 4 month hiatus. The show continued to see steady rising ratings throughout the 43 seasons EinsteinBlllllllllll showran, but around Seasons 37-43 the fans did complain about quality declining, resulting in EinsteinBlllllllllll leaving the series and TheJasbre202 taking over in the 44th season. This was also when PI gained the rights to the series.

The ratings greatly improved as it was advertised as a new person running the series, but ultimately flopped following in the 45th season as he co-showran with Swaner, so he ended up leaving the show in the middle of the season. Swaner ended up showrunning 2 more seasons until he was fired by the network and replaced with Somematchyguy19.

Season 49 marks the return of Polar (now credited with her real name) as a director; Adam becomes a main character in this season. Season 50 has Daniloeverton joining the cast, and having been in there for a VERY long time, under various pseudonymus. In Seasons 51 & 52, two writers of the series (WalkingBird and Daniloeverton) decided to call dibs on them. Season 53 gives the Fisharies (and T.S.F.) a big role. Season 54 is the first season to make it to the 22th century, but it saw WalkingBird announcing he's leaving the series.

Cicicity called dibs on Seasons 55-57, the first saw Daniloeverton's and CrazyMew37's departure; the second was the second "Sequel Season"; and the last has WalkingBird doing one last episode before finally leaving, and Daniloeverton unceremoniously making more and more episodes since then.

During the 58th season, AFallenPower and Dragongeek71 becames the show's first two-parter directors. On Polar's third season showrunning, TheJasbre202 made a return to the show under writing staff, along with newcomer Rocky Lobster, who'd be his partner on the show. They would casually write episodes, and announced that they'd be showrunning Season 60-62, and pre-write the episodes. It would also be the last produced by airing on Temmie Central, as the show was declining in merchandise sales and was moved to Jasbre TV following the 59th season's finish. This proved a bold move for the show, and PI stopped producing the show altogether, favouring to focus on their more known worldwide hits. In Season 61 SpongeBob's dad was killed off because the actor wanted to leave the show and end his contract with the company. That resulted in a decline of ratings. TheJasbre202 became head supervisor of the show's production making sure the seasons were never unfinished like in some of the early seasons.

Near the end of Season 62, Maja Avery was killed off because the actress for her would be recording a new album and going on tour and needed a break from the series, resulting in only 4-5 cameos in seasons 63-68. Season 63 saw a new showrunner known as BobSponge444 who loved the idea of having 40 episodes a season. His season saw a decline in ratings. Seasons 64 and 65 saw the return of Somematchyguy19 as showrunner, doing the usual, during the season Patrick Jr. got his own spinoff, resulting in his appearance narrowing down to a cameo every season. BobSponge444 returned yet again to showrun Season 66. Season 67 was the first to have Dragongeek71 solo showrun, but in the middle o fproduction saw numerous crew changes with the leaving of Daniloeverton, BobSponge444 and others. The season was finished by a new crew consisting of TheJasbre202, Somematchyguy19, AFallenPower and CrazyMew37.

BobSponge444 came back to showrun 68 before completely leaving the series. His last season was the first full one to include the new crew. Seasons 69 and 70 saw the return of TheJasbre202 and Rocky Lobster, and the last time they'd pre-write their seasons. They brought in a new character Mr. Shicowa as Mr. Krabs retired in the middle of season 70. During the middle of Season 72, it was announced that Patrick Jr. would completely exit the series to fully focus on the 3rd season of his spin-off, Mr. Krabs, Mr. Shicowa, Maja Avery, Adam Fishman and MermaidKid and BarnacleBean would exit their contracts following the Season 75 premiere to work on Better Days. New characters like Mr. Craps, Mr. Crustacean, Bargibant and Spot would take over following the premiere.

Erving, John and Hannah were added in absence of new characters in the middle of Season 75 by TheJasbre202. In that same season, Patrick's cousin Paddy was introduced. On March 25th 2018, a video game was released for the spin-off. Paddy was later killed off in Season 77. In April, Sponge TV was made just for airing reruns of the series 24/7, it is owned by Jasbre Productions / Jasbre TV.

Since then, the series had a very rigid airdate schedule (of who was broke since S94), with episodes airing every Monday of the third week of September and ending on May. Beginning with Season 77, the writers of each episode started to get their credits, ten seasons later, on Season 87, directors of each episode were credited as well.

As the wiki was changing as a whole, the series was too. Title cards were wildly varied in quality, some beign well-made (Spongebobfan90796), a few average at best (HannelSam) and others were terrible-looking (Mimara 2). So, Jasbre ordered Matchy to be the only TC maker since, with some exceptions here and then. RDK slided away to make place for Jasbre Animation since S87.

When ZPW was created, it becomes the Wiki's biggest and most active spin-off, making the series share the same state of SBGA at one point: having only Matchy and Purple doing episodes frequently, with few newcomers and other occasional writers.

On August 1st, it was announced the series would move to Minti beginning with Season 115, yet Sponge TV will still own rerunning rights. On August 31st, it was announced it was moving to Box Productions.
