I know, I'm sorry. I know many of you don't really care. But my SO and I just flipped over to Nickelodeon's first-ever live coverage of the super bowl... and it's hilarious! Featuring Spongebob and Patrick alongside 2 real-life pros, it's got little animation blurbs (DoodleBob is having a great time), plenty of puns ("Oprah Finfrey") and awesome banter. Pairs well with pot, we're lunchin' out. Have a great night everyone.
FP Edit: Nice!! Glad to see so many people tuned in. Hopefully it got enough traction for it to happen again next year. Cheers, y'all!
My favorite part was when Larry the Lobster was reporting live from the field in the second half.... he says, "There's a walrus down here!" and Spongebob goes, "That's not a walrus, that's Andy Reid!". Hah.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the NFL just reinventeed Broadcast Football
LovelyandAwesome
I don't ever wanna watch another Super Bowl any other way. It was SOOO MUCH FUN! We switch it "for the kids" (it was me, I'm one of the kids), and IT WAS FANTASTIC! The real commentary + animation, jokes, & quips made everything bearable.
Pokegeologist
Okay, okay, but did they finally, FINALLY make good on their promise to deliver us a real Bubble Bowl half-time show?

Tom Kenny as SpongeBob made a Leo DiCaprio 25 joke lmaoooo
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
Dang, if this was a thing when I was a kid, and if we had cable, I might enjoy football today.

“Lunchin out”? Are you from DMV?
theyeagereffect
I remember the Thanksgiving broadcast being super awesome too.
KittensForDays
Damn, I should have watched that
IfILikeYourJokeITellYou
It literally made the game watchable so funny
Captainplanetmotherfucker
I didn't know people said "Lit". lol.

Still remember the simulcast football game where they forgot to put the Nick side on a tape delay so an unbleeped F managed to get through.
SpecialAgentPinkfinger
Well now I wish I actually watched the game... on nickelodeon.

"Olivia Codrigo", "Dua Flipa", "Megan thee Sturgeon"
AnthonyBC
They did Megan so dirty with her fish-a-like but I was dying laughing. Nick should have their alternative for other big games too
AnthonyBC
Plankton chumming all over the crowd was a bit awkward

ohwownothanks
FIRMLY GRASP IT!!
buttcreambandit
How did I not know about this. FUCK!
ReverseSyzygy
I switched back n forth. (I'm not a fan of either SB) - Had different yardage markers, fish-net behind the goal posts, endzone became slime zone ... any others? - didn't see commercials on Nick
pdzoch
I hope it is an option on my NFL Replay!
ILikeToMakeBelieveICanSpeakForeignLanguages
Yes!! I turned that on by mistake and left it on! LOL

I wanna touch the owl.
RobBobertyYT
Wife and I tried to get everyone to watch that version but couldn't get everyone on board.
Paradysis
I don't have subscriptions to CBS or other sports sources, and I don't usually watch sports, but I have nickelodeon and I liked what they did with it!
Cyclicus
Yeah, my Dad and I flipped over to it for a while, it was pretty hilarious
njafo5942000
Most pathetic bowl game coverage ever.

are you mad they're making fun of your very important sportsball game?
DangerTrain
From this and your other comments you seem like such a miserable person.

I have a 12yo son who's on the autism spectrum. Keeps to himself and doesn't give two craps about sports. He and I watched this entire game together. It helped that he loves Taylor Swift. He had no idea, and I didn't tell him, that she would be shown 20 times. They first showed her and it took him a few seconds to recognize her. He turned to me and said "is that Taylor Swift?!?". Thank you Nick...it meant a lot to me.
ohwownothanks
That is so cool!! I love that you guys got to share that together.
TiroDvD
But did they play "Sweet Victory"?
BTWash22
Opening and ending song.
wadatahmydamie
Yes.
Mahanos
I hope there's a complete recording of it somewhere cause I totally missed it.
Snooj
Here are some highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuYNuxBiEKw and I link to this primarily because no one acknowledged Spongebob's killer joke at 4:10.
Mahanos
Thanks!
jamiedBreaker
Dude my favorite was near the end of the regular play when Larry the Lobster was down on the field and said, "Whoa, there's a walrus down here!" and without missing a beat, Spongebob said, "That's not a walrus, it's Andy Reid!" Lmaoo
BTWash22
My son said,'That's not a walrus...it's the Lorax!'.

I didn’t even know Nickelodeon was still on. Also, fun fact, Nickelodeon was the name for movie theaters back when seeing a movie used to cost a nickel

I'm still not used to it; I used to go to the nickelodeon after my shift at the factory, I'd grab a beer and relax watching whatever was running. This was before the Great War started, eventually I was drafted and sent to the trenches.

It's the best!

Rules Analyst Dora too!
Maverickaura
The oversight that she wouldn't need her helmet or suit in this instance bothers me.
TsukariYoshi
I'm glad someone else said it because otherwise I was going to have to.
Onlyhereforthelaughs
I mean, *Looks out at air quality of earth, plus her being at a Covid super spreader event* she's probably safer in there...
ImakeWine
They're in Bikini Bottom. She definitely needs her helmet.
AnonOmis1000
Shit you're right
BTWash22
You had to watch it. They are in Bikini Bottom. Her invention that made TVs bigger malfunctioned and pulled the stadium into BB.
IdRatherBeOnThePlaystation
This happens in the movie/show and it bothers me
Snooj
Maybe she's standing in front of a green screen in Bikini Bottom and not on location.

Cabreza
Hella underrated. They know ball and are legit great at describing the game. Better prepared than Romo this game
wadatahmydamie
Man, Romo is such a shitty announcer. And he kept saying stuff like “that’s the first time that’s happened in the Super Bowl! Since four years ago when the same thing happened.”
KittenParadeAllDay
Look I love this Nick coverage! But no reason to drag Romo his instant analysis is otherworldly
Cabreza
I liked year 1 Romo but he’s not been great these playoffs. He doesn’t seem to do enough homework so he doesn’t always know which players are which. In this game he called Nick Bosa Joey. He’s also a bit prone to starting sentences without knowing how he plans to end them.
Illinifan88
Romo sounds like he's absolutely hammered every game. Can't believe they let him do the Super Bowl.
jamiedBreaker
Haha thank you. It also doesn't sound like roofing nails in an industrial blender. On a chalkboard.
Cabreza
Plus they know which Bosa is playing in the game!
netutoring
If you took a shot every time he referenced leverage without explaining what the hell that means, you'd be dead. That's what made Madden great. He treated every game he announced like it was someone's first time watching football.
JamesofBerkeley
We were just shouting “leverage” on every play, and he would echo us on almost every play. #Leverage is the word of the Swift Bowl.
netutoring
He was unbearable in that game. As soon as the dude got paid, he became a parody of himself.
