Production[]
On August 10, 2020, it was announced that SpongeBob SquarePants would be receiving its second spinoff series, following Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years, and that the focus of the series would be on Patrick Star.[2] In March 2021, it was announced that Nickelodeon had ordered 13 episodes, with the series set to release in summer 2021.[3][4][5] On May 31, 2021, it was announced that the series would premiere in July 2021, and the first teaser trailer for the series was released.[6] On June 17, 2021, it was announced that the series would premiere on July 9, 2021.[7]
According to showrunner Marc Ceccarelli, the writers of The Patrick Star Show bent the rules of the original SpongeBob universe to allow for more creative freedom. Ceccarelli explained: "We really tried to just do anything we wanted... We mess with canon [the original series' continuity] a lot. I don't know if anybody knows this, but we don't really respect canon just for the sake of itself."[8] The writers also aimed to "sideline" story structures, which "frees [them] up to be more surreal and randomly bizarre with the kinds of things [they] put out there."[8]
On August 11, 2021, it was announced that Nickelodeon had ordered 13 additional episodes for the series, bringing the series to 26 produced episodes.[9] On March 21, 2022, Nickelodeon renewed the series for a second season.[10]
On July 21, 2022, a "SpongeBob Universe" crossover special was announced, featuring the main series and spinoffs The Patrick Star Show and Kamp Koral. "The Tidal Zone", a spoof of The Twilight Zone,[11][12] was originally set to premiere on Nickelodeon on November 25, 2022,[13] before getting delayed and rescheduled for release on January 13, 2023.[14]
