Karen Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I've been a fan of SpongeBob since the beginning. I remember the day it premiered.. It was the day I got my plastic rocking chair. I was 5 years old. hilaryfan80 and I were scooting these things down the hallway and all throughout the house across the then-carpeted floor. We had watched the Kids Choice Awards 1999 with our Dad and were rocking these chairs back to our rooms. At this point in time, my room had a TV in it, so I started watching the SpongeBob premiere that came afterward. I instantly fell in love with the cartoon. Now, nearly 12 years later, I've come to realize that most SpongeBob fans are nearing the 20s (or already there!) It seems like yesterday that shows like Double Dare 2000 and Slime Time Live dominated Nickelodeon - where did the time go? Even Tom Kenny took notice of how much SpongeBob has been around.

Karen Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 I may not have been a Spongebob fan since 1999... I think SB is for all ages, not just kids as some people think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebby Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm 17 and I've been a SpongeBob fan since I was 6 years old. I'll never forget that day I was flipping through the channels and saw that cartoon sponge turn into a skyscraper and making millions of himself.

Guest hilaryfan80 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I remember the days when people asked me, "What's SpongeBob?" Now you have to live under a rock to not know. Unfortunately, children these days are still affected by him today in grocery stores -- if they see the sponge, they want it instantly. There was a study about a year ago explaining about how popular characters on products makes children instantly want it. It's crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I've been watching SpongeBob ever since age 6, but I think I truly became a fan when my parents bought me the Season 2 box set at age 9. I think it really fills all generations, because it's innocent enough for kids and clever enough for teenagers/adults. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellatine Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 We got it in Latin America a bit later, I think i first saw it in late 2000 or 2001, I must have been around 11 then...I think Squeaky Boots or Bubblestand where the first eppies I saw, they still bring back that "ahhh, when I used to watch SB in Spanish!" feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Holy crap, that is bizarre. At what age did you start becoming a fan, or have you been watching it as long as you can remember? Um... at a young age. As a toddler I would watch it. I loved TV. xD I ended up watching the planes crash into the twin towers on 9/11/01 when a news station came on when I turned the TV on and I didn't know which channel or how to switch it.

Karen Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 I honestly am not certain exactly when I started watching it. The only thing I remember is that when I first saw previews for the show, I thought it was wierd and I would hate it. Then I watched an episode, and my expectations were blown out of the water! It could have been 1999, but I'm almost certain it was 2000 or 2001. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
