okay so when i say it’s better i dont mean on the quality level because i think both are bad but the creativity at least with dark age SpongeBob every episode felt unique and stood on it’s own and there was at least something to talk about now modern SpongeBob feels like it’s repeating the same joke over and over again and expect to be funny as the first time even though the first time wasnt even funny at all and there’s also the fact they reference previous episodes which makes these episodes feel nostalgia pandering
