DVD release

change

The DVD boxset for season twelve was released by Paramount Home Entertainment and Nickelodeon in the United States and Canada on January 12, 2021; a few episodes on this DVD by then had yet to air on American television. "Kwarantined Krab" is excluded from this DVD due to being too unintentionally similar to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, making this the second season DVD to exclude an episode from its set, after The Complete 1st Season which excluded "Help Wanted".
