I was watching Pee-Wee Herman the other day and I realized that he was Spongebob before Spongebob was born. That got me thinking about the Spongebobs that might have come before. Way before Pee-Wee, Curly from the 3 Stooges was like Spongebob. Were there any in between? Help me out-Always happy, kind of naive… hmmm… Scooby Doo? Astro? I would like to put a timeline up to show the evolution. Any help?
