Review from now adult watching Spongebob growing up...
I noticed a trend when first saw Spongebob in 1999 when it aired.. its was alright at the time most jokes aimed for older audiences flew over my head. But now looking at episodes that aired in the 2000s+ suddenly got all Adult in children's face. I noticed when I got older I was no longer laughing at the younger kid humor but at the low radar I was laughing mostly at innuendos. Then after the "sponge model" was shown, it was completely different from " ha ha he is an idiot" to "ha ha adult humor" to "this is just too much and crossed over the line" the more recent episodes show a lot "adult innuendos" that would raise questions to a kid at age 6-12 that are way more obvious... like the Spongebob movie trailer for 2015... It really crossed the line to seemly pushing kids to be more active "with their sexuality." I would say this scores a 1 for children.

Not for kids!
This show is terrible for kids. I watched this with my four year old son and was shocked by the violence and language. Don't let your kid watch this!

Anti-role model
SpongeBob is a naive fast food worker, with a greedy exploitative boss who abuses him and his co-worker friends, though they are oblivious and remain loyal to him. Think about it. SpongeBob is presented as a role model for exactly what every corporate boss wants: a mindless idiot who takes endless abuse, has no spine, and no higher goals other than serving his boss.
The values promoted by this show are consumerism, hero worship, boss worship, mindlessness, idiocy, having low goals, low brow humor, and promotion of being annoying.
The only intelligent character in the show (Squidward) is portrayed negatively, and his intellect is portrayed as a bad trait.
The fact that this show is popular and widely marketed to kids is pretty absurd. It is essentially capitalist propaganda.
