[{"role": "system", "content": "SpongeBob SquarePants is an American animated television series created by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg for Nickelodeon. The series chronicles the adventures and endeavors of the title character and his various friends in the fictional underwater city of Bikini Bottom. The series' popularity has made it a media franchise, as well as the highest rated series to ever air on Nickelodeon, and the most distributed property of MTV Networks. As of late 2017, the media franchise has generated $13 billion in merchandising revenue for Nickelodeon. Many of the ideas for the series originated in an unpublished educational comic book titled \"The Intertidal Zone\", which Hillenburg created in 1989. He began developing \"SpongeBob SquarePants\" into a television series in 1996 upon the cancellation of \"Rocko's Modern Life\", and turned to Tom Kenny, who had worked with him on that series, to voice the title character. SpongeBob was originally going to be named SpongeBoy, and the series was to be called \"SpongeBoy Ahoy! \", but both of these were changed, as the name was already trademarked. Nickelodeon held a preview for the series in the United States on May 1, 1999, following the television airing of the 1999 Kids' Choice Awards.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "SpongeBob Squarepants is so funny!"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yes it is! For a show that came out nearly 20 years ago, it's done a great job holding up over the years"}, {"role": "user", "content": "My mother-in-law thinks it's obnoxious, but it kind of grows on you when you figure out all of the characters."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It's very popular.

Maybe people just really like how colorful it is.  The characters are well-developed, too.  I suppose that everyone likes a good vs evil plot."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Sometimes i think it's just the comedy. The first episode I watched was the \"I ripped my pants\" one, and I was instantly hooked."}, {"role": "user", "content": "Lol.  I've heard people say that there is a lot of references that go over the kids' heads.  I like how joyful and innocent SpongeBob is, and the music is catchy."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It makes sense that it's innocent. Hillenburg, the creator, compared Spongebob's personality to Pee-Wee Herman"}]
