What if SpongeBob SquarePants ended after the first movie?

SpongeBob SquarePants is Nickelodeon's most iconic franchise. But what if it ended after Hillenburg left the show and it declined?

Changes

 * Fairly OddParents would be considered Nickelodeon's flagship franchise, being then followed by Avatar: The Last Airbender, Adventure Time, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Legend of Korra and The Loud House.
 * Despite that, SpongeBob still acts as the channel's official mascot.
 * All the bad shows made to imitate SpongeBob don't exist.
 * Nickelodeon would pick up Adventure Time, leading to Cartoon Network to restart his renaissance only after the premieres of Regular Show and The Amazing World of Gumball.
 * Adventure Time: Distant Lands would air on Nick as well rather than Netflix or CBS All Access.
 * After the series finale of iCarly, the channel's live-action schedule would be gradually axed as a way to focus exclusively on animated content and provide stronger competition to Cartoon Network rather than Disney Channel.
 * As a result, future live-action sitcoms would be produced instead for TeenNick.
 * Despite that, Henry Danger and The Thundermans still exist, yet as animated.
 * The only exceptions are the All That and Are You Afraid of the Dark? revivals.
 * A few original shows will take places of some of the shows that were terrible or seasons of SpongeBob.
 * Truth or Square, Atlantis SquarePantis and the stop-motion specials It's a SpongeBob Christmas! and The Legend of Boo-Kini Bottom still exist as one-off specials/TV movies for SpongeBob post-series finale.
 * Sponge Out of Water and Sponge on the Run would still existed as theatrical films, although traditionally animated.
 * [you can't deny the musical]
