Production change

The season aired on Nickelodeon, which is owned by Viacom, and was produced by United Plankton Pictures and Nickelodeon Animation Studio. The season's executive producer was series creator Stephen Hillenburg, who also functioned as the series' showrunner.[1] During production of the previous season, Nickelodeon picked up a second season for SpongeBob SquarePants on August 31, 1999.[2] The season premiered more than a year later, on October 20, 2000.[3] Season production assistant Derek Iversen commented, "We hoped it would go one season. We hoped it would go two seasons. I figured you do the best you can and you hope."[4]

In this season, production switched from cel animation, used during the first season, to digital ink and paint.[5] Executive producer Paul Tibbitt, in 2009, said "The first season of SpongeBob was done the old-fashioned way on cells, and every cell had to be part-painted, left to dry, paint some other colours.

Cast change

American rock band Ween (left) composed and recorded the song "Loop de Loop" that is featured in "Your Shoe's Untied", while John Rhys-Davies (right) guest starred in the episode "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III" as Man Ray, the heroes' arch-nemesis and the primary antagonist.

The second season featured Tom Kenny as the voice of the title character SpongeBob SquarePants and his pet snail Gary.
