Sorry.. Season 4 is absolutely horrible in comparison
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
I grew up watching Spongebob Squarepants, and it's unfortunate it has taken a downward spiral starting with Season 4. Sure, the show is still much better than most of the other crap you'll find on television today targeted towards kids (with the exception of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends), but otherwise it just doesn't meet the standards that the previous 3 seasons set. The reason Season 4 is so horrible is probably because the expectations are just too high after 3 terrific seasons. It does have its moments though, even if they are very, very brief.
As I understand it, Stephen Hillenburg (creator) 'jumped ship' and isn't part of the show anymore. That could explain how quickly the show took a turn for the worst.
If you're looking to buy your first Spongebob DVD, get one of the first three seasons. If you have everything but Season 4, you might as well complete the collection. Let's hope Season 5 reverses the current trend of spiraling down into the abyss of hell from its once dominant status.
