It kinda is. I mean the show just revolves around him being a buffoon and that gets tired really quickly. That's like giving Boomhauer from KOTH his own show and having most of his dialogue be his signature speech impediment, it will get tired (and grating) real quickly.
A show centered around Squidward would have been better. A show where he finally snaps, quits his dead-end job and tries to pursue his dreams but has to pass through several, rather challenging, obstacles to achieve his one goal in life before he dies.

He moves to Sea-attle and becomes a financially successful street performer, to the frustration of his brother who is also a clarinetist for the local orchestra.
I would really love to see a different location that isn't Bikini Bottom, a more modern city setting. Makes me wonder if the SpongeBob underwater universe is vast nothingness outside of Bikini Bottom after watching the first movie. Though there is that one town Gary travels too in "Have you seen this snail?"
I dunno, I haven't watched SpongeBob in a long time to know if they expanded the underwater universe of the show.

Squidward is hands down the most interesting Spongebob character for a spin-off. Creating a supporting cast entirely composed of new characters (except maybe for Squilliam) would be a particularly engaging creative exercise.
It frickin sucks. Like its parent show nowadays, it is just more proof that cartoonists can't actually fricking make cartoons, except it is worse because it is board driven. When has that ever worked besides early Looney Tunes? Get a writing staff instead of letting your storyboard artists make garbage, preferably non-artist writers because that perspective of restraint is sorely needed for any sort of balance to be achieved

Ren and Stimpy
Samurai Jack

Dexter’s Lab
PPG
Chowder
Invader Zim
Pretty much everything Genndy and Craig has worked on.
Also Modern Spongebob and The Patrick Show are actually script driven dummy. And trust me, the amount of bad script driven cartoons heavily outweighs the amount of bad board driven stuff.
I was thinking about how funny Patrick was in the early seasons yesterday. I get that its easier to write a straight up idiot, but Patrick having the air of an experienced, worldly person who would give Sponebob bad advice under the guise of him knowing what he was talking about is really, really fricking funny.
It's sad that they just made him a fricking moron and the closest we get to the old pat is his genius transformation.

Imagine lowering your standards for a piece of media because something worse exists.

>everything else right now
Such as?
I saw the first episode and thought it was fricking terrible.
>Watch a random episode of Kamp Koral
>Patrick's dad from this show appears
I hate the Spongebob universe
It’s worse, it only accentuates everything that went wrong with Patrick’s character.
I can stand shit like Danger Force, but this show is where I set the line.

It really is that bad, it's as bad as it can be
It's decently animated and there are good expressions here and there, but that's all I can say.
Hint: If you can only praise something by saying “[Other thing worse]!”, then that thing just isn’t good.
standards are that low huh
>Patrick in his most unlikeable state
Hard fricking pass

>patrick spin-off
>has SpongeBob anyways
What’s the point?
No, it IS "that bad." Spinoffs starring comic relief sidekicks is always a bad idea.
