Dang. I was the reverse. I loved SpongeBob season 1 as a kid due to its darker colors, I found it fascinating and one time when I was around 7 I put notes on two of my SpongeBob DVDs saying "includes x Season 1 episodes" lol

Simon has his classic eyebrows in all the panned out shots in Mortal Recoil:
Simon's eyebrows become modern in Hitman:
In Still, Simon's classic Season 1-2 eyebrows return:
But in Wizard Battle, literally the next episode, he has his modern eyebrows again:
Then in Holly Jolly Secrets, his classic thunderbolt eyebrows come back again:

Hey, Original Raw and Uncut did you ever watch PBS Kids as a kid? I think the changes in animation are pretty interesting especially for older shows like Arthur (first 15 seasons were traditionally animated, flash from then on) and Cyberchase (first 5 seasons traditional, flash after).
Season 5 of Cyberchase had this unique art style that no other season in the show had.

I did infact watch PBS as a kid. I was thrown off when Cyberchase switched to flash and I noticed immediately. At the time, like many other people, I still had a CRT TV in my living room and I was still able to tell the difference.
What in particular makes season 5 stand out among the rest of the series?
I do know that the pilot was traditional cel animation, and the first five seasons were digital ink and paint until the switch of flash.
I also don’t remember if the flash seasons had the live action segments or not, I remember really liking those as a kid.

Those do look like season 4 eyebrows. Season 4 eyebrows only appear in markerbob

Not even close. The low resolution and line quality give away that it’s from season 2

Not to mention his pupils are a lot smaller

Honestly, everything. I can tell when a Cyberchase episode is Season 5 at first glance, the characters have larger pupils, more expressive eyes brighter, warmer color palette, much thicker outlines and more interesting animation. I'd call it the SpongeBob Season 4 of Cyberchase. It looks very different from the first four seasons in my opinion, and better in my opinion too. I wish they had at least kept that art style for one more season.

Sometimes Jackie also has thicker eyebrows than usual in Season 5.

A Fraction of a Chance is Cyberchase Pranks a Lot.
My favorite episode when I was little was when they were inside hacker, I saw it when it originally aired in 2007.

I would consider Season 5 of Cyberchase to be the Cyberchase Season 4, and Season 6 and on to be its own thing that doesn't really have an equivalent in SpongeBob since SpongeBob never stopped using flash animation. If the first five Cyberchase seasons were one show, A Tikiville Turkey Day would be the Cyberchase Pranks a Lot. Season 5 looks like it was animated by a different studio.

Cyberchase also follows the status quo of many animated shows having more modern episodes than classic. The flash episodes outnumber the traditional ones.
