Ocean Man [in honor of Stephen Hillenburg]

This idea just kinda came to mind recently. I watched this spongebob documentary and it just made me feel so nostalgic, but also sad. I feel so glad to grow up with the old spongebob, seasons 1-3. Steve and the crew had just taken off, and everything was great. Recently, spongebob has been getting worse and worse since Steve passed, and I wanted to make this tribute to him and the rest of the crew for creating such an amazing cartoon to grow up with.

This seems like it came out of nowhere, but my little ADHD self just got hyperfixated on nostalgic things, but mostly Spongebob.

R.I.P, ocean man.
Thanks for making so many childhoods better.

Please watch this if you haven’t! It’s such a fantastic documentary.

This is super sweet as well. I’m so glad Steve was alive for this :)

And here’s where I got the clip of Rodger and Tom I think. I honestly don’t remember BUT I THINK ITS HERE

Here’s the absolute classic of a song, Ocean Man :)

Stephen Hillenburg is the True Ocean Man May He Rest In Peace

[ConnorMiller]

He made millions of children’s childhoods so much fun. Stephen wasn’t led by money or greed, he only cares about making people happy. He gave his earnings from SpongeBob to marine life organizations as well as their health services for animals. It’s only fitting his ashes were scattered at sea. He really was the Ocean Man! Rest in peace Stephen. ❤

The man that literally changed the world. Imagine if we didn’t have SpongeBob. No juicy memes no epic childhoods no banger songs.

RIP Stephen, I'm sorry that Nickelodeon started to milk your franchised the way they are, but I'm forever grateful for the childhood-defining first 3 seasons and first movie you gave us. Rest well captain. You've earned your ship♥

[NoahClevinger]

What an incredible man he was. I’m forever grateful for Mr. Hillenburg because SpongeBob is my favorite show of all time. He will always be remembered for how much of an impact he had on all of us.

The ocean man, took him by the hand, and led him to the land, that he understands.

[Flint_the_uhhh]

This makes me feel emotions I can't even put into words.
Damn.

[RekoBrowner]

a legend. he created spongebob, he wrote, directed, produced and storyboarded on rocko's modern life so he was one of the main reasons that show was so great. so many shows came from spongebob and the writers he hired for it:chowder, phineas and ferb, harvey beaks, adventure time, billy and mandy, fish hooks, steven universe, mighty bee etc. all branches of the spongebob tree.
