The show was originally cheerful and vaguely sentimental with SpongeBob being somewhat relatable and most of his bumbling being treated sympathetically or as [[LaserGuidedKarma Laser-Guided Karma]] to meaner spirited characters. As time passed however the humor became darker and SpongeBob also became more insane and the consequences of his constant stupidity often shown to be harrowing and life destroying for innocent people. Other characters like Mr Krabs also became far more malicious ([[KarmaHoudini and unlike before didn't always fall victim to karma).
