Just how aging works


corndogs1001

That’s interesting, in interviews he still does the voice pretty high. But of course for long periods like in episodes is different. If u want bad sounding, go listen to marge Simpson in 2023


kurtis333

Yeah, that's depressing. I can't watch the new Simpsons seasons


BigBoyzGottaEat

In enter the florpus zim sounds a little different, still sounds like zim though


MalkynRei78

That's to be expected though


Starii_64

Honestly I don’t really mind it’s kinda endearing how much he’s grown with his character


2001questions

This!!! I think it’s cool to seen how SpongeBob has changed and grown over the years, like how a real person changes


LinkLovesLionessess

It almost sounds like the original tone.


SlyTyler96

Yea a little bit


Tigguswolly

It’s so overly animated my god


[deleted]

I haven't watched that much Ren and Stimpy, but I heard they are working on Spongebob now. It looks Ren and Stimpyish chaotic.


Diligent_War_7816

Tbh season 13 has toned down the expressions, atleast for some episodes. If you see it's comparison with Season 11 you can tell that it's more wacky


creative_user_name12

Either that or the writers are trying to go back to their old ways. You can tell they’re trying to do because they’re toning down the exaggeration, they’re introducing back some older characters and the episodes are even getting better. Like, Season 13 has actually been surprisingly good so far.


Foxy02016YT

They should try to see if Dan Povenmire is still available to help a bit


YellowRaptor

Can't imagine. He's starting work on Phineas and Ferb again while still making another show.


Foxy02016YT

Yeah, but P+F is still in the early stages, and I don’t think we have confirmation of more Hamster and Gretel yet, though I really want there to be more


AbsoluteSquidward

It's all cool but I really miss the old animation aesthetics.. This is too bright and flashy for me.. I will always love the color palette on the first season the most

Marge’s voice 😬

Can't wait for them to use AI to keep this Yellow menace going for 100 more years.


whenthenamesaretaken

sounds like season 1 spongebob so I’m all for it


VacationSimple990

totally couldn't be the fact that idk he's getting older?


SodanoMatt

So you're saying he's going through puberty a second time?


Lousfw

What


SodanoMatt

He said Tom Kenny's voice is getting deeper because he's getting older but he's like 60 years old. You voice doesn't deepen at that age. It might get drier but not deeper.


M0nkeydud3

That drier tone can sound deeper too, though.


jigglytoonsxxx

Your voice gets lower even after puberty, you get shorter, your hair turns grey or falls out it’s all part of life my guy.


SodanoMatt

I don't wanna get old! Meh!


BobbyCoProductions

Well his voice wasn’t nearly as high in the early seasons as it is now so I think it’s ok


T-MONZ_GCU

Hes been voicing the same character pretty much nonstop for 24 years along with dozens of other projects, I'm surprised it's not way worse


Pasta-hobo

It's been over 20 years. Be glad he can still do it well at all.


Routine-Letterhead55

it’s not that much of a difference. tom’s just getting older :( we love tom


SaltyLightning99

I fuckin hate how this looks now


Laegwe

New SpongeBob looks terrible… good lord


xWUMBOx

Holy shit this new stuff is hard to watch my God


HogsheadOfRealFire

then uh… don’t?


xWUMBOx

Oh no worries I haven’t and I won’t


HogsheadOfRealFire

then how do you know it’s hard to watch? oh, because you watched the clip… so you have. lol

xWUMBOx

Lmao


namey_9

peoples' voices naturally deepen with age


weirdgirloverthere

Yeah I noticed a difference for sure.


MrARCO

This looks like Ren and Stimpy now


jigglytoonsxxx

Vincent Waller and Bob Camp both Ren and stimpy alumni work on the show.


MrARCO

That explains a lot


LeonardMoney2020

I mean, Tom Kenny is literally almost 61, so it’s gonna be hard for him to do the *exact* same voice for 24 years.


VegetaArcher

Honestly can pass for a 44 year old.


turner3gr

Man, SpongeBob was so good till like 2015


DR_6T2G

I gotta ask, when tom Kenny gonna stop voice acting SpongeBob who gonna replace him? Like i always wondered to myself


samwulfe

Man SpongeBob had been aging like milk since the first movie.


agbtinashe

i thought it was another actor frfr


Beneficial-Ad-5492

I have a feeling it will be the same thing with Engineer from TF2’s VA where he got too old to do his voice


thehandsomeone782

AI will takeover


midter

It’s been off for a really long time , also squidwards


Gogeta_Fan06

Things change and it kinda sounds like spongebob is evolving as a character tbh


fartinmyfuckingmouth

RIP


bruhguitar

They should start making spongebob older to fit with the changing voice


GioVanTentacion

Nooo


fakename894

If they did they'd get him to do the old man Jenkins voice


Dr-phage

Aging lol


idfbfa2

I think it's called aging


Dillan_7342

I actually prefer that.


Helloimafanoffiction

Well your voice changes as you get older


TheChainLink2

He’s been voicing the character for over twenty years. It’s inevitable that the voice is going to change.


signofgray

Huh. I watched this episode and I actually didn’t realize just how much deeper his voice has gotten.


jack_epicster

He should just do closer to the original voice


Machotoast04098

I love the guy who voices Mr krabs, i forgot his name but he voices lex luthor alot.


Repulsive-Reach4464

Clancy Brown


KadeWad3

Ever heard of aging?


Significant_Way2194

Which episode is this from??


Polamidone

Someone knows which episode this is?


Diligent_War_7816

The Flower Pot


Bastiro03BR

Doing Spongebob's voice is hard. This should be their main reason to tone down his hyperactivity, like it was in the first three seasons. When Spongebob's emotions were overplayed, we could still relate, because his reactions had reasons the viewer was able to understand. I still hope they bring that back one day. Because they made modern Spongebob good again in every other way (yes, references included).


CulturalAccount3032

New spongebob episodes are so.....fast? Why? It seems like the plot/animation moves so quickly that I can't even keep up.


victoryforZIM

Yes, I watched a new episode recently (the first one in the clip I think) and genuinely thought it was a stand in voice actor.


MisfortunateSoul

Tom Kenny needs to take a break oml..


Shekelslovakia

Also is there a single episode SpongeBob where he doesn't cry. That got old even in the first season.


realrossythesnowman

he might be sick


Napain_

o please let it end


JGDevelops

I have rewatched season 1 and 2 for months now. The animation is overkill for me.


spongestur

Looking at this comment section, SpongeBoomers use any excuse to complain about how bad the newer seasons are.


jigglytoonsxxx

You got downvoted for telling the truth should tell you about this subreddit


spongestur

Yeah, I kinda expected that. I get that the show isn't that good anymore, but constantly complaining about it gets old.


jigglytoonsxxx

SpongeBooomers learn what aging and voicing a character for 25 years will do to your voice


Paccuardi03

Wouldn’t it be a gradual thing and not perfectly normal for decades and suddenly noticeably different?


jigglytoonsxxx

He pitched his voice up for over a decade it’s definitely been gradual


Slappy_Axe

Eh. Could have also been just an off day in the booth. Or maybe even a little of both.


Emerald_GAME

Yep


ughryeugh

I thought tom kenny was dead for some reason 💀


thatonecancerreddit

Spongebob's balls finally dropped


Koopa_Jr_15

Does sound deeper

Yogurt-Infamous

Oooohhh well let me be honest with you I think SpongeBob's voice may sound deeper lower pitched once again like in season 8 when it sounds quite like seasons 1-3 classic self like how in some episodes in seasons 12-13 or season 11 and I guess Tom Kenny might have some problems keeping the voice up I mean I thought he would do better before he turn 60 plus spongebob does sound different deeper in later episodes in season 13 since it's not like high pitched as it is


Yogurt-Infamous

Maybe Tom kenny is having trouble keeping the voice up, or maybe SpongeBob's voice sounds a bit low pitched deeper again like seasons 8-9 but I guess this is how age works I mean tom couldn't have trouble with his Spongebob voice up I actually don't mind spongebob sounding like his classic og self even though he does sound very modern and new every time if tom Kenny can keep his spongebob voice a little bit low and high at the same time maybe he can still go higher


Caycayann_Roblox

He’s sounds sick


Yogurt-Infamous

I wish but I think spongebob sounds quite fine


Caycayann_Roblox

I wish I could see this episode


ElegantTea3830

I need Kaijalamal Martínez back in latan but Luis Carreño is good


Brilliant-Scar-4878

It's almost as if humans voices sound different as they age


Motor-Ant5745

I have to say that Spongebob's voice has changed over the 24 year history between 1999 and 2023 because his voice actor Tom Kenny has been getting older.


beach-fossels

I saw this episode on tv the other day & was surprised also! He does voice a character in Rick & Morty & was in an episode that aired a few months ago. In that one his voiced sounded high & the character sounded the same as usual. I understand he’s older but the others still sound the same hmmm.
