Whether it's hearing the "That guy got hit in the head with a coconut!" music in The Thing and Squid Baby, or having entire episodes dedicated to the return of old characters like Bubble Buddy Returns, to even smaller references like including Fiasco from "Fiasco!" in "Are You Happy Now?", continuity is undoubtedly becoming a bigger part of SpongeBob.Gotta say, I'm liking it.
It all sort of started in Season 8 (but there were a few mini-nods prior to that), with Bubble Buddy Returns, and kind of expanded from there. Squidward has a bit of an arc throughout the Season, with episodes like Sweet And Sour Squid and Smoothe Jazz At Bikini Bottom feeling like companions to the Season Finale, Hello Bikini Bottom! Along with the aforementioned Fiasco references, Season 8 is the start of budding continuity in the show. But Season 9 continues that.
Episodes like License To Milkshake are based off of jokes in Yours, Mine, And Mine about a milkshake license, Bumper To Bumper references how Mrs. Puff has been arrested on several occasions, and Squid Baby is a weaker retelling of Rock-A-Bye Bivalve. What do you guys think about the continuity exploding in SpongeBob lately? Do you guys want things like Spot to appear again, etc?
