Celebrate the Holidays with SpongeBob

SpongeBob fans – Nickelodeon’s preparing to debut a holiday special just for you. The network will premiere its first full-length stop-motion animated special, It’s a SpongeBob Christmas!, on December 6, 2012 at 8pm (ET/PT). The special was inspired by holiday classics including Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and features the voice of John Goodman as Santa Claus.

It’s a SpongeBob Christmas! was written by Tom Kenny (SpongeBob’s voice) and Andy Paley.

The Plot: In It’s A SpongeBob Christmas!, Plankton turns everybody in Bikini Bottom from nice to naughty by feeding them his special jerktonium-laced fruitcake all in an effort to get his Christmas wish – the Krabby Patty formula. The episode includes special bonus scenes featuring a stop-motion version of the character “Patchy,” also voiced by Tom Kenny.
