SpongeBob SquarePants (post-movie, Coolot's version)

I know we already made a theory where SpongeBob SquarePants ended after the first movie, but we decided to try it again and imagine how the dreaded seasons would look like if they had more creative visions and made the events of the movie canon rather than setting it as a series finale.

Differences

 * Mindy and King Neptune become recurring characters.
 * Jerkass Patrick doesn't happen.
 * "Squidward torture porn" is heavily toned down, being only resorted to when he deserves it.
 * Mermaid Man, Barnacle Boy, King Neptune and Mindy were all forced to be recast due to varying reasons. According to Vincent Waller, the crew justified the recast of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy due to them wanting to continue stories with them despite the actors not being around.
 * Mindy due to Scarlett Johansson being expensive.
 * Mermaid Man due to Ernest Borgnine's passing in 2012.
 * Barnacle Boy due to Tim Conway's retirement in 2016 and consequent passing in 2018.
 * King Neptune due to the sexual harassment scandals involving Jeffrey Tambor that arose in 2017.
 * Stephen Hillenburg would have accepted spin-offs before his death as long they added to the lore rather than just being merchandise-driven, especially considering Nickelodeon's well-known greed.
 * So far, they are a tweaked Kamp Koral, a Patchy the Pirate show, a Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy show and a Krabs and Plankton miniseries.
 * [the second movie being traditional in the LA scenes]
 * The third movie was heavily tweaked, especially since it rehashed both an older episode done better and the first movie, aside from being a poorly disguised pilot for Kamp Koral, as it takes a new plot and makes it fully traditional.
 * The new plot involves a TBD, until it's revealed that Plankton is once more trying to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula to achieve his goals of defeating Krabs and world domination.
 * Sage, despite still being mostly LA, is played by Samuel L. Jackson and has a more sarcastic humor to him.
 * The advertised main villain is revealed to be manipulated by Plankton in order to help him conquer not just the fast food market but the world.
 * Most of the new cast have been wiped due to being seen as pointless.
