SpongeBob SquarePants Teases New 25th-Anniversary Specials in New Clip (Exclusive)

SpongeBob SquarePants is celebrating its 25th anniversary with new specials.

SpongeBob SquarePants is officially celebrating its 25th anniversary, and Nickelodeon has shared an exclusive clip of one of the new special episodes coming our way to help celebrate. SpongeBob SquarePants first premiered on Nickelodeon in full on July 17, 1999, and it's been 25 years since that fateful day. It's been such a long time that the animated series has gone on to inspire a whole universe of connected series with spinoffs, feature films, crossovers, and more over the course of the decades. But thankfully, there are no signs of SpongeBob SquarePants slowing down with Nickelodeon any time soon. 

SpongeBob SquarePants will be airing some special episodes for the 25th anniversary, and one of these is titled "In the Mood to Feud." Airing with Nickelodeon on Tuesday, July 16th at 5 p.m. ET, this new special sees SpongeBob, Patrick, and Sandy finding themselves in the middle of the long-running feud between the Narwhals and the Planktons. There's a tease that we'll not only see more of the Plankton Family, but we'll be seeing the first look at Narlene and Nobby's (who come from Kamp Koral) parents and their cousins. Check out the exclusive clip at the new SpongeBob SquarePants special below.
