Badpasta Wiki:1998 Pilot

You probably heard of the spongebob episode that premiered in 1999 called “Help Wanted”,Right? Well,Back then on Nickelodeon,I was an worker there and I heard they were making a special project they would like to present on April 1th,1998,tho the show date was pushed back to its help wanted 1999 premiere date,But I was able to get my hands on the 1998 Pilot of Spongebob Squarepants. Tho there was a few 1998 concepts for design of the Pilot,The Pilot was finished on April 1th,1998 and I received a VHS copy of the pre-final Help wanted Episode. Most of the storyboards and Animatics of the 1998 version were close to the final product only Spongebob was more crudely drawn,But not as bad as his 1996-1997 version. And also his colors were the same as good ol,Modern Spongebob but only the colors were brighter and Spongebob’s Hat was a C still,Also the krusty krab was still the “Crusty Crab” at the colors of the ‘Crusty Crab’ were strangely blue,way different from the final version. Also Patrick wasn’t present in the 1998 Pilot,And The layout of the krusty krab had only 1 table,The Cash Register was Red,and also there were hooks holding up the order papers,One of the orders were a ‘Barnacle Burger with Fries’ (The original name of the Krabby Patty) and Squidward was called “Squidy” in the 1998 Pilot,Also Mr.Krabs was just called ‘H. Krab’. And Spongebob’s name was the same as on the final show. When I received this 1998 Copy,There was no theme song and the colors were brighter,also I recall a scene where Mr.Krabs asks spongebob to take out the trash,And Spongebob does that. Squidward seemed more happier in this Pilot Build. Now,The VHS cover just was blank with a text on it written on black marker called ‘SBSP BETA PILOT 1998 C NICKELODEON 1998’. I put the VHS in my VCR after I had a little snack,And Once I put on the Episode,It started with a blue screen,then the TitleCard would show up saying “Help Wanted”,It looked exactly like the final TitleCard,only again,the colors were better. So as then,The Episode begins with Spongebob waking up,But Gary wasn’t anywhere to be seen. Spongebob gets ready for work and Mr.Krabs is less cheap or greedy then he is in the final show,Mr.Krabs asks spongebob to take out the trash,so spongebob accepts the Task and does it,Squidward is next scene running to the crusty crab,Now,I’m just calling there final show names so you won’t get confused,but anyways when Squidward gets to the cash register,he finds an Angry Note on it saying: “Your barnacle Burgers STINK! -Fred”,And Yes Fred was evented at the point of the Pilot,But Squidward asks Mr.Krabs to get rid of spongebob and Mr.Krabs asks Spongebobia to get a Golden Barnacle Burger,Not a spatula,So spongebob does that but a bunch of fish comes in With Green Busses,not red and they Shake the crusty crab,But spongebob comes to save the day,But it was to late,Mr.Krabs and Squidward were skeletons,Spongebob Screamed “Oh NO!” And the Pilot ended,Now we were smart enough to rework to what it is today.
