About this converter
SpongeBob seasons run 20 to 26 episodes on Nickelodeon lists. Seasons 1 through 5 at 20 each hold the classic band. Season 10 at 22 bridges upward. Seasons 6 through 9 and Seasons 11 through 13 at 26 each top the table. That makes the top band over one and one quarter times the opener. Segment level counts double these figures in guides, and episode rows use broadcast episodes, stated here. All rows pin official lists.
How to use it
Pick two seasons and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first season, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total episodes. Try Season 13 against Season 1.
Sampling stops at Season 13 to keep the table readable; later seasons follow the same 20 to 26 band. Segments count twice per half hour in guides outside episode rows. Specials count inside season totals. Kamp Koral counts live on their own pages and stay out. Patrick Star Show counts live on their own pages and stay out.
