 Sponge Bob Square Pants-Gap Rating 7/10 Sponge Bob Square Pants was born in 1999 in Burbank, California, USA. He is best known as a goofy and guileless undersea cartoon hero. Sponge Bob Square Pants is the absorbent, yellow and porous star of the cable television cartoon series Spong Bob Square Pants. The show was created by Stephen Hillenburg and first aired in 1999. Voiced by Tom Kenny, Sponge Bob lives in a pineapple under the sea, in an area called Bikini Bottom. His associates include: Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke), a dimwitted starfish and SpongeBob's best friend; Squidward (Rodger Bumpass), a malcontent 6-legged octopus and Sponge Bob's co-worker and neighbor; Mr. Krabs (Clancy Brown), the owner of the Krusty Krab, where Sponge Bob works as a frycook; and Sandy Cheeks (Carolyn Lawrence), a feisty country squirrel who manages to live underwater. The original run of the series was suspended after 60 episodes in 2002, in order to create The Sponge Bob Square Pants Movie (2004, with guest stars Alec Baldwin and Scalett Johansson). |
