It really just became garbage, not even just the terrible animation. After Stephen's death, it all went garbage. They definitely just want money. Everyone seems to just have a different personality. I don't think Nickelodeon has ever even watched the show themselves. For example, SpongeBob was always having a problem in the older episodes, but now he's dumb as Patrick and is just tossed as a side character in most episodes. The music is also so loud and they rarely even fit the scenes they are put in. Let SpongeBob rest. Not to mention the fact that Stephen said that he didn't want any spinoffs.
