My home is “SpongeBob SquarePants” mania for my seven-year-old. For the past two years, he has been a big fan of the animated series and has wanted everything that the character is featured on, may it be yogurt to toothpaste, he is a SpongeBob maniac and thus, he was excited when I watched this DVD alongside with him. I can’t help but think that if my son is this way, I can imagine how in the last decade, parents had to deal with their children loving this animated series and wanting SpongeBob this and SpongeBob that.
My wife and I have found the “SpongeBob SquarePants” series to be quite hilarious and fun. Especially when it comes to interacting with your kids, especially with the family singing along with the theme song.
So, if you have children who love the series, “SpongeBob SquarePants: Triton’s Revenge” is a great inclusion for this DVD release. For the most part, you get seven episodes (which I’m sure if you children is a big fan of the show, they may have seen an episode dozens of times) and if my son is any indication to how a few young children are with the series, they don’t get tired of it. Also, you get a bonus episode of “Fanboy & Chum Chum” (which may appear to be dark for younger kids but it’s not that bad) and two “The Clash of Triton” shorts.
Overall, if your children or if you are a fan of the series, “SpongeBob SquarePants: Triton’s Revenge” is a fun DVD release. If you are looking for a good gift for a your child or a friend/family member’s child, looking for a good commute video to keep the kids quiet during a drive, “SpongeBob SquarePants: SpongeBob’s Last Stand” is definitely a release worth picking up!
