This article is a complete '''list of deleted or cut scenes''' from {{SBSP}} [[List of episodes|episodes]]. A deleted scene is any scene or bit of an episode that has been cut out of either the storyboard version, DVD releases, or in reruns after the original airing.

==Season 1==
==="[[Help Wanted]]"===
In the original 1997 version of the pilot, there was a different opening with fast-paced action sequence music and colorful paintings of SpongeBob.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjMFp474l8Q</ref> However, on {{Time|May 1}}, {{Time|1999}} after the {{W|1999 Kids' Choice Awards}}, this episode officially aired with [[SpongeBob SquarePants Theme Song|the famous theme song]].
*In the 1997 version, there is a brief orchestral flourish with waves crashing and seagull noises over a black screen before the opening shot of Bikini Bottom. In the 1999 version, there is a title sequence for "Help Wanted."
*When [[Livin' in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight]] plays for a second time, the screen abruptly cuts to black in the 1997 version. In the 1999 version, the Krusty Krab stays on-screen until the episode ends. The song is also cut-off slightly in the 1999 version.
*In the storyboard, the scene in which SpongeBob wakes up and greets Gary originally showed Gary taking a bite from a cactus, about garden snails' tendency to feed on succulent plants. The 2007 book ''[[Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons!]]'' features a page from the original storyboard that includes this scene.
*The end credits for the 1997 and 1999 versions of "Help Wanted" have several differences, including:
**In the cast credits in the 1997 version, Bill Fa'''ger'''bakke's name is misspelled as "Bill Fa'''bber'''bakke." This error was corrected in the 1999 version.
**In the cast credits in the 1997 version, Pa'''tr'''ick Star's name is misspelled as "Pa'''rt'''ick Star." This error was corrected in the 1999 version.
**Gary the Snail, who was voiced by Tom Kenny, is not credited in the 1997 version. This error was corrected in the 1999 version with Gary being added in.
**[[Carolyn Lawrence]], who voiced Sandy, is not credited in the 1997 version. This is because "[[Tea at the Treedome]]" had not been produced yet.
**In the credits in the 1997 version, Erik W'''ie'''se's name is misspelled as "Erik W'''ei'''se." This error was corrected in the 1999 version.
**In the credits in the 1997 version, the song "Livin' in the Sun'''light''', Lovin' in the Moonlight" is incorrectly listed as "Living in '''t'''he Sun'''shine''', Loving in '''t'''he Moonlight."{{Sic}} The same screen in the 1997 version also reads "written '''and''' performed by Tiny Tim (courtesy {{W|Reprise Records}}.)" with a period at the end. The 1999 version has the song listed as "Living in '''T'''he Sun'''shine''', Loving in '''T'''he Moonlight."{{Sic}} The same screen in the 1999 version also reads "written '''&''' performed by Tiny Tim (courtesy {{W|Reprise Records}})" without a period at the end. The word "and" is written in {{W|ampersand}} form instead of letter form like in the 1997 version.
**Near the ending of the 1997 version, instead of the [[United Plankton Pictures, Inc.]] logo being displayed, there is a logo with the "Created By" text above, the SpongeBob sketch drawing in the middle, and the "Stephen Hillenburg" text below. This is because Stephen Hillenburg had not yet created the company.
**The 1997 version is the only episode to be produced by Games Animation, which would later be renamed to [[Nickelodeon Animation Studio]] the following year.
**At the ending of the 1997 version, there is an early Nicktoons logo that has a small and short copyright notice with a production date of 1997. The ending of the 1999 version has a more detailed and prolonged copyright notice with a production date of 1999.
***This is the first time where the copyright year does not match the actual production year, in this case, being the 1999 full version. However, this is because its sister episodes were produced in 1999.

==="[[Reef Blower]]"===
This episode's plot was completely different according to the [[SpongeBob SquarePants (pitch bible)|1996 pitch bible]]. It originally involved SpongeBob using a reef blower to clean his yard, only for it to become out of control causing SpongeBob to fly everywhere. Patrick comes out with a reef blower of his own and imitates SpongeBob. Because of the power of the two reef blowers, they erode the foundation of Squidward's house causing it to fall over with Squidward inside of it. This would've made Squidward fed up with the both of them and decides to move away with SpongeBob and Patrick trying to get him to come back. This plot would later be reused for "[[Squidville]]."

==="[[Tea at the Treedome]]"===
An original title card with a different background and font colors can be found on the ''[[SuperSponge]]'' asset discs. It is the only title card on the discs that does not match its final version. It has never been used in any broadcast, home video release, or streaming release of the episode. The old title card had a version excluding "Tea at" that was used in ''[[The SpongeBob Musical: Live on Stage!]]''
*Additionally, in early American reruns, the [[Tales from the Deep (DVD)|Tales from the Deep DVD]],<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbaGfSYD1uo SpongeBob: Tea at the Treedome title card (Tales from the Deep DVD version)]</ref> and the [[Deep Sea Sillies]] VHS releases of this episode, [[Edgar Larrazábal]] was incorrectly credited as the animation director instead of [[Tom Yasumi]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMm7yphDIpQ&t=11s Tea at the treedome screenbug house 2002]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQDUw0RPyos&t=8s April 2002 ScreenBug Tea At The TreeDome]</ref>

There was an unused shot of SpongeBob's incredibly dry mouth during the "I don't need it" scene. The shot was cut for unknown reasons (possibly due to it being unsettling to younger audiences) and was replaced with a second close up of SpongeBob's eyes.
[[File:I DONT NEED IT I DONT NEED IT I DONT NEED IT.jpg|thumb|center|260px]]

Also, there are some unused cels from the very beginning of the episode when SpongeBob observes the jellyfish through a telescope.

==="[[Bubblestand]]"===
The bubble that enters Squidward's house was originally going to be a tugboat and not an [[Elephant bubble|elephant]].<ref>[[:File:SpongeBob SquarePants pitch bible - second draft page 46.jpg]]</ref> 

At the end of this episode, when Squidward plays his clarinet weakly, a portion of the scene is cut on all Nickelodeon USA broadcasts ever since the original airing on {{Time|July 17}}, {{Time|1999}}. This is due to the screen cutting to black when this happens. Despite this unusual edit, all [[Nicktoons]] USA and {{W|Nick at Nite|Nick@Nite}} broadcasts, international non-US airings, all digital and streaming releases on {{W|Amazon Prime Video}}, [[Paramount+]], and {{W|iTunes}}, the VideoNow versions, [[The Seascape Capers (VHS)|The Seascape Capers VHS tape]] release, and all DVD releases retain this scene.

==="[[Ripped Pants]]"===
In the original airing of this episode, [[Paul Tibbitt]]'s name is misspelled as "Paul Tibibitt" with an extra I between the Bs when credited as storyboard director in the opening credits. However, his name is spelled correctly when later credited as a writer. This error also happens with [[Mark O'Hare]] whose name is misspelled as "Mark O'hare" with a lowercase 'h'. These errors were corrected on later American reruns, international non-US airings, the {{W|Amazon Prime Video}} version, the VideoNow versions, most VHS tape releases except for [[Nautical Nonsense]] and [[Undersea Antics Volume 1]], and most DVD releases.

==="[[Jellyfishing]]"===
An additional background of Squidward's house was made that wound up being unused.
[[File:Jellyfishing background-32.JPG|thumb|center|260px|Unused shot of Squidward's house]]

==="[[Plankton!]]"===
There was a deleted shot of one of SpongeBob's pores during the scene where Plankton first enters his head.

There is also an alternate background of SpongeBob's bed which uses its standard colors rather than its unique design that ended up being used only in this specific episode.

==="[[Pizza Delivery]]"===
Early production images reveal that scenes featuring the Krusty Krab's clock and a neon sign signaling the restaurant being either open or closed were cut.

An early production image reveals that a scene featuring SpongeBob walking down his stairs as the nematodes eat his house was cut.

==="[[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy]]"===
There is an unused watercolor painting of a cherry pie that was supposed to be used in this episode, likely during the scene at the Shady Shoals cafeteria, but it was cut for unknown reasons.
*There is also an unused painting of a third scene with a donut on SpongeBob's hand.

==="[[Jellyfish Jam]]"===
Since {{Time|2012}}, the title card is always skipped whenever this episode airs on {{W|Nick at Nite|Nick@Nite}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgym3QX7jRA "Jellyfish Jam" title card cut (Nick@Nite broadcasts)]</ref> This is because the Nick@Nite version uses an old non-remastered print from {{Time|1999}}. This error also occurs for the occasional "best of" compilations on [[Nickelodeon]] USA airings<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-NkfYUVQsk "Jellyfish Jam" title card cut (Occasional "best of" compilations on Nick)]</ref> and whenever this episode is paired up with another non-remastered episode outside of [[season 1]] and early [[season 2]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F6moURG2mk SpongeBob- “Jellyfish Jam” Title Card Error (10/22/20)]</ref><ref>[[w:c:nickstory:October 22, 2020|October 22, 2020 - Nickstory]]</ref><ref>[[w:c:nickstory:March 6, 2021|March 6, 2021 - Nickstory]]</ref>
*The title card is left intact for all of the [[Nicktoons]] USA airings<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDQrqGLu7-U "Jellyfish Jam" title card retained (Nicktoons broadcasts)]</ref> and whenever Nickelodeon USA airs this episode with "[[Hall Monitor]]" because remastered prints are used.<ref>[[w:c:nickstory:January 8, 2021|January 8, 2021 - Nickstory]]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wy1PMnlocc "Jellyfish Jam" title card retained (Nickelodeon broadcasts)]</ref>
**For the {{Time|April 2}}, {{Time|2021}} airing, this episode was paired up with "[[Jellyfishing]]." The title card was retained because Nickelodeon used remastered prints for both episodes.<ref>[[w:c:nickstory:April 2, 2021|April 2, 2021 - Nickstory]]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_0U6xcXkzE "Jellyfish Jam" title card retained (Rare "best of" compilations on Nick)]</ref>

==="[[Squeaky Boots]]"===
According to the 1996 pitch bible, this episode had a few scenes that weren't used in the final episode. There was originally a scene where SpongeBob could control the boots like a musical instrument, causing everyone to be impressed by his musical abilities.
*This episode also had a deleted scene at the end, as Mr. Krabs would end up buying the boots back from SpongeBob at an expensive price.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4LrL0KaIVY</ref>
There is a deleted cel of Mr. Krabs talking to SpongeBob at the order window, the exact context being unknown.

==="[[Opposite Day]]"===
There is an unused painting of the [[Bikini Realty]] building that was meant for an establishing shot.

==="[[F.U.N.]]"===
In the storyboard version, Plankton asks "So what happens after we shoot 'em?" and pretends to fire his jellyfish net like a rifle. SpongeBob responds "You don't shoot 'em!"<ref>[http://shermcohenstoryboards.blogspot.com/2012/05/spongebob-storyboards-fun-show.html Sherm Cohen's website]</ref> In the final episode, Plankton does still hold his net like a rifle, but does not pretend to fire it. Instead, he asks "So what happens after we eat 'em?" This change was likely due to the Columbine High School shooting, which occurred 5 months prior to this episode airing.
[[File:F.U.N. Storyboard 15.jpg|thumb|center|260px|Original storyboard of this episode, with the shooting lines intact.]]

==="[[Employee of the Month]]"===
At one point, SpongeBob was going to be dressed as a pilgrim and Squidward would be tied up and on a plate, acting as a turkey. There was also another scene of SpongeBob being stuck in a cereal box, though this joke would later end up being used in "[[Artist Unknown]]."

==="[[Scaredy Pants]]"===
Right before SpongeBob sees Patrick in his Halloween costume, there were a couple cut frames of SpongeBob looking afraid.<gallery widths="180" captionalign="center" position="center">

According to storyboard panels 185B - 188B, when the Flying Dutchman removes SpongeBob's costume, there was a scene where the camera gets closer to SpongeBob's face, which was almost completely shorn-off for his ghost costume earlier in the episode, with each cut, The Flying Dutchman's point of view and says "Hi," before the Flying Dutchman flies off. This was most likely removed for comedic timing, instead revealing what SpongeBob looked like after the Dutchman fled in terror. 

The episode's storyboard also ends with a close-up of SpongeBob's face, rather than cutting to black with the line "Don't worry, it grows back!"<ref name=":0">[https://lostmediawiki.com/SpongeBob_SquarePants_(partially_found_deleted_scenes_of_animated_series;_1999-present) Lost Media Wiki]</ref> The close-up is indicated as scene 196, after Patrick runs away after realizing SpongeBob's face actually is exposed. The indication remains as part of the information of the close-up painting.
[[File:724px-Sb scardeypants closeup.jpeg|thumb|center|260px|An unused close-up shot of SpongeBob with his brain exposed.]]
As of October {{Time|2020}} onward, SpongeBob's line "Don't worry, it grows back!" at the end of this episode, was cut in Nickelodeon USA TV airings due to the line being said at an inappropriate timing (causing the screen to go black when the line is said). However, the line is left intact on all digital and streaming releases on {{W|Amazon Prime Video}}, [[Paramount+]], and {{W|iTunes}}, all international non-US airings, the [[Halloween (VHS)|Halloween VHS tape]] release, DVD releases, and [[Nicktoons]] USA airings. The line would later be re-inserted in the Nickelodeon USA TV airings as of [[Timeline:2022|2022]].
[[File:Nickelodeon- “Scardy Pants” Ending Error (10 19 20)|thumb|center|260px|The October 19, 2020 airing on Nickelodeon USA where the line is missing.]]

==="[[I Was a Teenage Gary]]"===
As of October {{Time|2020}} onward, at the end of this episode when snail Squidward is saying, "Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow," his last "meow" is cut off in [[Nickelodeon]] USA and [[Nicktoons]] USA airings due to the line being said at an inappropriate timing (the screen slowly fading to black when the line is said). However, the line is left intact on all digital and streaming releases on {{W|Amazon Prime Video}}, [[Paramount+]], and {{W|iTunes}}, all international non-US airings, the [[Halloween (VHS)|Halloween VHS tape]] release, and DVD releases.
[[File:Nickelodeon- “I Was A Teenage Gary” Ending Error (10 19 20)|thumb|center|260px|The October 19, 2020 airing on Nickelodeon USA where Squidward's final meow is missing.]]

==="[[SB-129]]"===
According to the "[[Show Design]]" special feature on the [[Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies]] DVD, it's stated by [[Nick Jennings]] how this episode was originally going to be about SpongeBob and Patrick time traveling, but it was replaced with Squidward.

==="[[Sleepy Time]]"===
According to a picture of a workprint of the episode posted by storyboard artist [[Adam Paloian]] on his Twitter account,<ref>https://twitter.com/adampaloian/status/894730188252106752</ref> SpongeBob's license was originally going to look a bit different, with a different picture of SpongeBob and a different signature signed "S. Squarepants" instead of "SpongeBob SquarePants."

As shown in an early production image (found on eBay), a background of Pearl's bedroom was created for a scene in the episode. The scene featuring her room was cut, and the background was left unused.

==="[[Suds]]"===
Unused cels of Doctor Patrick holding a suitcase of medical supplies have been discovered on eBay. Additionally, an unused closeup painting of one of SpongeBob's plugged holes can be seen on a set of the [[SpongeBob SquarePants Trading Card Game]] from {{Time|2003}}.<ref name=":0" />

==="[[The Paper]]"===
In very early storyboarding stages, the episode's climax was originally going to be that Squidward's stack of belongings comes to life and SpongeBob has to defeat it with the piece of paper.<ref>[https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1078806107563290624 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref>

==="[[Arrgh!]]"===
The storyboard features a cut scene. Right after SpongeBob says, "Hey! Mr. Krabs is getting all sweaty again!" there was going to be a vision of Mr. Krabs sitting atop and sniffing a pile of treasure.<ref>[http://shermcohen.deviantart.com/gallery/?catpath=/#/d4bg0rg Sherm Cohen on DeviantArt]</ref> A background exists that would have been used in this scene.

==="[[Texas]]"===
In the scene where SpongeBob doesn't want Sandy to leave before following her to the bus, there were several frames of SpongeBob swelling up and turning red in anticipation that got cut. Several cels and sketches have appeared on eBay, and sketches and a model sheet also exist. Twitter user LarryInc64 attempted to recreate the scene using the material found.<ref>[https://twitter.com/LarryInc64/status/987218658207420416 LarryInc64 on Twitter]</ref>

In the remastered print of this episode on digital and streaming releases, the scene where SpongeBob gets a tan is different, his skin tone is orange instead of brown.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Cartoonkal/status/1387633905889579010 I Draw Stuff on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/ArtofSpongebob/status/1509718752295890949 The Art of SpongeBob on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQSitQT5HYI Walking Small - Nicktoons CEE censorship]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/CDCBsVCR/status/1533094081081053185 CDCB on Twitter]</ref> The original brown colored SpongeBob remains intact on the [[SpongeGuard on Duty (VHS)|SpongeGuard on Duty]] VHS tape release, DVD releases, and international non-US airings of this episode.

==="[[Neptune's Spatula]]"===
There was an unused early background for the scene where SpongeBob reads a bed-time story for a Krabby Patty.<ref>https://www.allpremiumanimation.com/product-page/production-cel-hamburger-cel-from-neptunes-spatula-5640</ref>
[[File:Unused ns.webp|thumb|center|260px|Unused background.]]

There are also unused cels from this episode, one of them being from the scene right after Larry tells King Neptune that it was SpongeBob who pulled the spatula. Another cel seems to be from a deleted scene where Mr. Krabs runs off to the bet window while SpongeBob and Neptune look on.

==="[[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II]]"===
*An early, unused animation cel reveals that the life-size Krabby Patty mannequins of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy at first were to be sculpted from raw Krabby Patty meat, rather than actual Krabby Patty sandwiches.
*An early storyboard included a scene where the judges of the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy fan contest began to nibble from the statues, which also never made it into the final print.
*There were three backgrounds of a [[Jewelry Store]] scene where it would have had its window accidentally broken.<ref>https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1164582000704942081</ref>
*An additional background of the [[First Nautical Bank]] was made.

*At the end of this episode, when the ending sting of [[Police Car]] by Sam Spence plays, a portion of the scene is cut on all Nickelodeon USA broadcasts, due to the screen cutting to black when this happens.

==Season 2==
==="[[Something Smells]]"===
*At the beginning of the [[Something Smells (audio commentary)|episode's audio commentary]] on [[the Complete 2nd Season]] DVD, it is revealed that this episode was originally going to start with SpongeBob going out to buy every gallon of ice cream in town and not knowing the flavor of ice cream he buys is onion, then getting bad breath from eating it. But they later decided that he would make his sundae with ketchup, raw onions, and peanut plants with dirt.
*According to the audio commentary, it is mentioned that Squidward had a deleted line in the ending of this episode. After SpongeBob and Patrick hug him and run away, he would say, "Ugly and smelly, two for one," but it was cut due to the whole screen fading to black at the end.

==="[[Big Pink Loser]]"===
The episode would have included a scene with a trailer fish watching TV, as his wife asks why he cannot be more like SpongeBob and Patrick.

==="[[Bubble Buddy]]"===
During the scene at Goo Lagoon, there was a deleted scene of what seems to be burnt beachgoers. The exact contents of this scene are unknown and it was cut for unknown reasons.

==="[[Dying for Pie]]"=== 
*The "open-heart surgery" scene is different in the storyboard. After Squidward asks, "Are you sure you should be poking it like that?" SpongeBob asks, "Who's the doctor here, me or you?" and blood comes out of Squidward's heart. SpongeBob nervously plugs up the hole.
*When SpongeBob is showing Squidward to "everyone in town," he stops by a fish ([[Incidental 49A]]) working on a computer and greets them. When the fish looks out of the window, there is nobody there. A painting for the office building still exists.

==="[[Grandma's Kisses]]"===
The sideburns were originally mustaches in [[Grandma's Kisses (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on [[The Seascape Capers (DVD)|The Seascape Capers DVD]]. Also in the storyboard is a deleted shot of SpongeBob and Patrick eating cookies together at the end.
[[File:Grandma'sKissesStoryboard-DeletedScene.jpg|thumb|center|260px|SpongeBob and Patrick eating cookies in a deleted scene from the storyboard.]]

==="[[Squidville]]"===
An unused background of a coffee shop was painted that never made it into the final episode.

==="[[Prehibernation Week]]"===
*According to the [[Prehibernation Week (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], when Sandy rakes the leaves, she makes a big symbol for "girl power," but it was changed to Texas - likely because it fit better with her character. She also originally would have performed a whole gleeful dance routine when stepping on the leaves, but it had to be cut for time.
*There was also an alternate ending: when SpongeBob sees Sandy begin her hibernation, he would have said: "Why I oughta!" Ultimately, he would instead laugh, then say to himself, "I never thought I'd say it - but thank Neptune for hibernation!"

==="[[Life of Crime]]"===
There was originally going to be a sequence of SpongeBob and Patrick playing a game involving many sharp objects with the balloon. This was changed to SpongeBob and Patrick thinking about all the fun they could have with the balloon, then it popping - likely for its sudden humor delivery.<ref>[https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1078769538341031936 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref>

==="[[Christmas Who?]]"===
Five scenes and lines were deleted. They all can be found on the [[Christmas (DVD)|Christmas DVD]] in the special features on the [[Christmas Who? (storyboard)|Christmas Who? storyboard]].
*SpongeBob says, "Lookey who's next!" in one scene at the Krusty Krab. It was cut for unknown reasons.
*When they sing "[[The Very First Christmas]]," instead of Plankton and Mr. Krabs singing together, two Bikini Bottomites sing together.
*Squidward (as Santa) gives the first girl a plant resembling himself instead of a wrench.
*After Squidward gives the first girl the gift, SpongeBob says, "I told ya he was real!" enthusiastically.
*While waiting in line for Santa (as Squidward), Mr. Krabs says, "And don't forget about me pony!," referencing his earlier Christmas wish for a pony "with saddlebags full of money." This was cut for unknown reasons.

==="[[Survival of the Idiots]]" ===
According to the [[Survival of the Idiots (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], Sandy's bed was hanging from the ceiling (like a hammock), and there was more saliva.

==="[[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III]]"===
According to [[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[Tide and Seek (DVD)|Tide and Seek]] and [[The Complete 2nd Season]] DVDs, there were several deleted bits:
*Mermaid Man saying, "Evil" was originally a newly recorded line and not a reused audio clip from the first "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy" episode.
*Patrick's line "Fro-fro-fro-fro-fro-fro-fro-fro-fro…" was originally longer and was accompanied by a deleted shot of him and SpongeBob walking up to the frozen [[Man Ray]].
*Man Ray was originally supposed to sigh ight before pulling out Patrick's ID, which originally had a picture of him drooling instead of smiling.
**Also in this version, Patrick's last name was shown to be "Starfish" when it was previously established to be just "Star" in "[[Big Pink Loser]]."
*Patrick was originally shown to be perfectly fine and not bandaged immediately after grabbing the remote.
*Instead of saying, "Forget about your skin, Pat! Many Ray is still bad!," SpongeBob would've said, "Worse than that. Man Ray is still bad!"
*After SpongeBob tells Patrick he's the best sidekick ever, Patrick would've said, "Thanks Mermaid Man."
*Man Ray would've started laughing immediately after saying, "Everybody stay right where you are!"
*The scene of Man Ray deciding to open a checking account was slightly longer.
[[File:SpongeBob SquarePants - Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III (storyboard)|thumb|center|260px|Storyboard for the whole episode.]]

==="[[Squirrel Jokes]]"===
There is an unused close-up of Sandy's teeth from the scene in which SpongeBob is inspired to make jokes about the size of squirrel teeth. In the final episode, this shot is animated instead.
[[File:Destruction.jpg|thumb|center|260px]]

Also, according to a model sheet, Squidward was originally supposed to appear in this episode. He was removed for unknown reasons.
[[File:055 Squid in Tux.png|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[Pressure]]"===
Based on the caption "Can you do this?" from [[Jay Lender]], SpongeBob would stick his tongue through his holes after asking Sandy what she can do. However, Lender comments that there is a chance that this scene may be from "[[Sandy, SpongeBob, and the Worm]]" instead.<ref>[https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1078760624379707393 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref>

==="[[Shanghaied]]"===
In the original airing, viewers could pick who would get the last wish at the end of the episode. The number was 1 (800) 624-4094 to vote. After that, the number was disabled, so it can't now be called. As expected, SpongeBob results to be the winner. All subsequent airings only show SpongeBob's ending, although some DVDs do contain the alternate endings.
[[File:SpongeBob Shanghaied Original Phone Number scenes|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[Gary Takes a Bath]]"===
There are unused backgrounds of a book entitled ''The Gourmet Snail'' (which would presumably have been read by Gary) as well as an electrical outlet on SpongeBob's wall.

==="[[Welcome to the Chum Bucket]]"===
According to the [[Welcome to the Chum Bucket (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], there was a scene where Plankton takes out SpongeBob's brain before putting it in the robot. It was likely either cut for graphic content or to save time (this was replaced by a transition).

There is also a model sheet of Plankton in a clown costume (likely while entertaining SpongeBob), something not seen in the final episode.
[[File:124 Clown Plankton.png|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[Graveyard Shift]]"===
The [[Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies]] DVD features storyboards of this episode and a deleted scene in which SpongeBob does another activity "at night" as he delivers the mail to "[[Floorboard Harry]]" - a mysterious character who lived beneath the floorboards of the Krusty Krab - whose face was covered by one of the said floorboards - with a hole revealing an eye peeking out. Floorboard Harry was also originally going to be the one responsible for flickering the lights, not Nosferatu/Count Orlok.
[[File:Graveyard Shift Floorboard Harry.png|thumb|center|260px|Unused Floorboard Harry scene.]]

*In the storyboard, after Squidward tells SpongeBob a scary story, SpongeBob ask him about multiple background fish that have various objects in place of their hands, such as a hook, a scythe, two toasters and a chainsaw. Lender described that the joke took away from the atmosphere and the Krusty Krab being empty, so it was cut.

==="[[Procrastination]]"===
The following scenes were removed by [[Nickelodeon]] on {{Time|May 17}}, {{Time|2005}}<ref>[https://www.sbmania.net/forums/threads/deleted-scenes.9080/post-125970 SBMania.net - Threads - Deleted Scenes]</ref> (and [[Nicktoons]] when they were rerunning the edited version) and haven't been shown on the network for many years.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qYlCx1cBdY</ref> {{W|Pluto TV}} airings of this episode don't have the deleted scenes as well. However, after years of airing the cut version, Nicktoons began airing the episode with the cut scenes restored on {{Time|October 3}}, {{Time|2019}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjuFhlimGvA SpongeBob SquarePants Procrastination Deleted Scenes Finally Reairs on Nicktoons (October 3, 2019)]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KK6NAizkL74 Procrastination Deleted Scene Finally Reairs on Nicktoons (VHS; 2019)]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwE_3bBtzpc "Procrastination" Cut Footage Airing on NickToons (September 27, 2024)]</ref> Nearly 5 years after Nicktoons restored them, the scenes would later be reinstated on the main Nickelodeon channel on {{Time|September 22}}, {{Time|2024}} when the episode switched to using the remastered print.<ref>[[w:c:nickstory:September 22, 2024|Nickstory - September 22, 2024]]</ref> Despite this, the previous censored print of this episode continues to air during [[Nick at Nite|Nick@Nite]] hours.<ref>[[w:c:nickstory:November 10, 2024|Nickstory - November 10, 2024]]</ref> It is unknown as to why these scenes were cut, though the most plausible reason could be that since the edited print first aired during Slime Time Live, the deleted portions were removed to make room for Slime Time Live segments, and Nickelodeon somehow kept using the edited master.
**A scene where SpongeBob looks out the window and sees all his friends enjoying themselves, including Patrick rubbing Sandy's shoulders with sun lotion while saying, "Come on, SpongeBob!," but then he leaves and goes back to the table.
**A scene where SpongeBob imagines one day having his license, followed by archival footage of a drag race car crashing into a wall.
**A scene where SpongeBob practices calisthenics was removed.

All home media releases which include this episode as well as {{W|Amazon Prime Video}}, [[Paramount+]], Nicktoons USA, and all international broadcasts retain the cut scenes. The scenes were left intact for the Nickelodeon USA broadcasts from 2001 to 2005 before being restored when the channel began airing the HD print of the episode in 2024.
[[File:SpongeBob SquarePants - "Procrastination" Deleted Scene (Highest quality; Logoless)|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[Sailor Mouth]]"===
According to the [[Sailor Mouth (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], the episode was planned to have a scene that had SpongeBob saying, "Go (dolphin noise) yourself" followed by Patrick saying, "(dolphin noise) you too!" during the Eels and Escalators Game. It was cut for the fact that the foul language used was quite easy to decipher.

==="[[Artist Unknown]]"===
[[Bold and Brash]] was originally going to appear more like a fish, as revealed in a production sketch.<ref>[https://twitter.com/adampaloian/status/1047658446579949568 Adam Paloian on Twitter]</ref> This design made it into the show in "[[The Big Bad Bubble Bass]]."
[[File:Bandb.jpeg|thumb|center|260px|Original Bold and Brash design]]

==="[[Jellyfish Hunter]]"===
In the storyboards, the montage of SpongeBob catching jellyfish was extended, originally having two more grotesque paintings of Mr. Krabs beyond the infamous "Moar Krabs" painting.<ref>[https://twitter.com/adampaloian/status/955552704608088064 Adam Paloian on Twitter]</ref>

Also, the scenes where SpongeBob says "goodbye" to Twelvy and where No Name (aka Friend) breathes heavily into the phone before knocking the power in SpongeBob's house out are cut in the Fisher-Price InteracTV version of the episode.
[[File:Jellyfish Hunter Moar Krabs storyboard 2.jpg|thumb|center|260px|Storyboards for a deleted scene.]]

==="[[The Fry Cook Games]]"===
Since {{Time|2018}}, the title card is always skipped whenever this episode airs on {{W|Nick at Nite|Nick@Nite}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5UjKVoi8mA "The Fry Cook Games" title card cut (Nick@Nite broadcasts)]</ref> Though the reason for this error is unknown, [[Nickelodeon]] USA airings use an old non-remastered print from {{Time|2001}} with the title card left intact.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JygLOV3hFE</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDoSKrCW3Dc "The Fry Cook Games" title card retained (Nick broadcasts)]</ref> On [[Nicktoons]] USA airings since October {{Time|2019}}, they use a remastered print of this episode which also has the title card left intact.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5jPpmrLI5g "The Fry Cook Games" title card retained (Nicktoons broadcasts)]</ref>
*On the remastered print of this episode, the sound effect heard in the "PLEASE STAND BY" card features a weird static-esque sound effect (which was also used in the episode "[[Plankton Retires]]"). This minor oversight is present for all Nicktoons USA airings since October 2019, as well as all digital and streaming releases on {{W|Amazon Prime Video}}, [[Paramount+]], and {{W|iTunes}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFkbFPKmCaA&t=25s "The Fry Cook Games" sound effect substitution (Comparison Video)]</ref>
**However, the old non-remastered print from 2001 retains the original sound effect, which is used on Nickelodeon USA and Nick@Nite airings, all international non-US airings, the {{W|Netflix}} version, [[The Seascape Capers (VHS)|The Seascape Capers VHS tape]] release, and DVD releases.

==="[[Sandy, SpongeBob, and the Worm]]"===
*The episode initially began without the French Narrator and instead with two worms, Chip and Brian popping out of the dirt and chewing on some coral. Brian jokes with Chip, asking him how many mermaids it takes to screw a lightbulb. Chip doesn't know what a lightbulb is, so he asks Brian if he knows what is stupid and says "uh... what the?" all the time. Chip believes he knows the answer, but the ground starts shaking as the two look over and find the Alaskan bullworm, hiding back in the dirt.
*After the Alaskan bullworm ate the police car, the scene would cut to two fish at the barber shop, with a "Hair" sign at the top. The worm would eat the "H" letter on the sign, causing it to say air, as it floats into the surface.
*After the elderly fish in the poncho scratched his hook across the window, the scene was initially supposed to cut to a wider shot of the Krusty Krab and its various attendees blinking, rather than just Squidward, Mr. Krabs, Fred, and another incidental looking back at them.

==Season 3==
==="[[SpongeGuard on Duty]]"===
In [[SpongeGuard on Duty (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[SpongeGuard on Duty (DVD)|SpongeGuard on Duty DVD]], a few scenes that were changed in the final cut:
*[[Incidental 103]] and [[Incidental 150]] playing inside a [[Orca kid]] were originally shown playing inside a crocodile.
*SpongeBob turning onto his back was originally him flipping into the air.
*When SpongeBob says, "Patrick isn't drowning!" the camera zooms on him at a dramatic angle.
There are also unused paintings that exist in which Patrick's butt cramps are represented by his rear end fading into an image of a rope with knots. In the finished episode, this is instead represented by his behind twisting into knots in an animated sequence.

==="[[Just One Bite]]"===
When Squidward awakes from his dream about marrying a Krabby Patty, he wakes up and he says, "I have got to get my hands on a Krabby Patty and no one's gonna stop me!" and runs past SpongeBob's house on tiptoes. When he's at the Krusty Krab, he says, "There it is, unguarded! All I have to do is...wait. It's too easy. There must be some kind of... security? This is our burglar alarm? A bucket of water? Ha-ha!" He kicks the door open and spills a bucket of liquid, then comments, "That was too easy!" He sniffs the liquid and realizes, "Hey, this isn't water. This is... gas!" A robot arm drops a lit match into the gas, resulting in a huge explosion. Squidward enters the kitchen, setting off another burglar alarm. The kitchen bursts into flames for a few seconds. Then, he walks over to the Patty Vault. Later airings have Squidward saying, "There it is!" and cut to the interior of Krusty Krab with the camera zooming in through the window to the Patty Vault. Squidward approaches it as he did in the original version. The rest of the episode goes normally.

This scene was cut from future airings of this episode, with reports of the scene being cut coming as early as January {{Time|2002}}, a mere three months after the episode originally aired.<ref>[[w:c:nickstory:January 2, 2002|Nickstory - January 2, 2002]]</ref><ref>[https://animesuperhero.com/forums/threads/spongebob-squarepants-edited.2883111/ ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' edited - Anime Superhero Forum]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhKG3n7cI5Y&t=23s April 2002 Screenbug - Just One Bite / The Bully]</ref> Explanations for the removal were initially thought to be either to {{W|September 11 attacks|respect the victims}} of the {{Time|September 11}}, {{Time|2001}} attacks, which occurred less than a month before the episode aired, or to prevent children from attempting to use and/or ignite gas.<ref>[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Trivia/SpongeBobSquarePantsS3E3TheBullyJustOneBite Trivia / SpongeBob SquarePants S3E3 "The Bully" / "Just One Bite" - TVTropes]</ref> [[Jay Lender]], one of the writers for this episode, told [[SpongeBuddy Mania]] in January {{Time|2007}} that while the unedited version of the episode initially went through every possible [[Nickelodeon]] approval, the September 11, 2001 attacks were a major factor in the subsequent decision to remove the scene along with a {{W|Broadcast Standards and Practices|Standards and Practices}} issue.<ref>[https://www.sbmania.net/forums/threads/spongebob-just-one-bite-uncut.14239/post-213007 Jay Lender's statement to SpongeBuddy Mania]</ref> On {{Time|June 4}}, {{Time|2018}}, [[Vincent Waller]] also said in a statement on Twitter that the removal of the scene was due to a Standards and Practices issue and Nickelodeon being against the idea of a gag involving a match and gasoline.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20211220235809/https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/1003628087982977024 Vincent Waller on Twitter]</ref>

Today, the uncut episode is still mainly aired only on Canadian channels, including {{W|YTV (Canadian TV channel)|YTV}} and {{W|Nickelodeon (Canadian TV channel)|Nickelodeon Canada}} (it's cut in French). It was dubbed in Korean on {{W|Educational Broadcasting System|EBS}} airings, dubbed in Serbian on {{W|B92}} airings, and voiced over in Bulgarian on {{W|Diema Family}} and Super7 airings. It is unknown why the scene was left intact in the episode's Canadian, South Korean, Serbian, and Bulgarian airings.
[[File:SpongeBob on Parade 185.png|thumb|260px|A match and gasoline in "SpongeBob on Parade."]]
Despite all of these concerns, a gag involving a match and gasoline would later be used in the climax of the [[season 13]] episode "[[SpongeBob on Parade]]."

An interview with [[Sam Henderson]] on SpongeBuddy Mania revealed there was originally going to be a scene involving the Bikini Bottomites characters smashing furniture and writing graffiti inside of SpongeBob's head. He further claimed that it was cut because the network can't show any actions that children might try.<ref name="interview">https://www.sbmania.net/interviews.php?id=5</ref> After SpongeBob says that he doesn't think "wumbo" is a real word, Patrick would originally threaten "Are you saying I don't have any of the ENGLISH?" then he proceeds to squeeze Squidward, resulting in Squidward's head inflating.<ref>[https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1078784240421036032 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref>

==="[[Snowball Effect]]"===
There was going to be a scene of Squidward entering a snowman dungeon he made and saying, "I'll bring them to my snow dungeon and extract their valuable secrets." This scene did not make it into the final episode due to being too graphic (which several snowmen getting tortured and executed), though a background does exist which would have been used in the scene.

==="[[Wet Painters]]"===
In [[Wet Painters (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[Sponge for Hire (DVD)|Sponge for Hire DVD]]:
*SpongeBob says, "I dedicate this crash to my old pal Squidward!" This line was cut possibly because it would make it seem as if Squidward was dead.
*When SpongeBob is down on the floor in front of [[Mr. Krabs' first dollar]], Patrick is dressed like in a ''[[Behind Closed Doors]]'' drawing of the same scene.

==="[[Party Pooper Pants]]"===
In the TV version of this episode, the [[French Narrator]] has two scenes in-between a commercial break:
*'''Narrator:''' That includes you folks, SpongeBob's House Party will be right back after these messages. ''[fades out and back in]'' ''[Patchy is shown dancing and a guy in a submarine outfit walks towards the camera]'' Ahoy there! Welcome back to SpongeBob's House Party!
**These scenes were cut from the [[Bikini Bottom Bash! (VHS)|Bikini Bottom Bash! VHS tape]] and DVD releases because there are no commercials on the DVD/VHS. However, these scenes are still intact on the [[Bikini Bottom Bash (DVD)|Bikini Bottom Bash DVD]] and the [[Paramount+]] streaming release. Also, in [[Party Pooper Pants (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[Tales from the Deep (DVD)|Tales from the Deep DVD]], the guests are shown leaving as soon as SpongeBob unlocks the front door when he gets back from the stony lonesome.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBKJAmyXrOk</ref> In the finished episode, most of the guests, except for Patrick, are already gone when SpongeBob unlocks the front door.

==="[[New Student Starfish]]"===
In [[New Student Starfish (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[Sponge for Hire (DVD)|Sponge for Hire DVD]]:
*When asked to say his name, there is a deleted scene where Patrick glances at a calendar with the date number 24, prompting him to say, "24."
*After Patrick leaves at the end of the episode, there is a deleted line of SpongeBob saying, "Can I have his star?" The ending would instead feature [[Roger (chick)|Roger]] hatching from his egg and asking "Hey, what'd I miss?"
**Both scenes were incorporated into the [[New Student Starfish (book)|chapter book release]] of this episode.
*According to the storyboard version and the model sheet, the design of Roger after hatching out of his egg was originally going to have been drawn in a cartoon style. The storyboard version of Roger at the end is not colored in, but has an early prototype design that is also used in his model sheet. The early prototype design of Roger in the model sheet consisted of him having orange hair on his head, a yellow body, an orange beak, orange legs, wearing a dark blue sweater shirt that has his name written on it in light green letters, and black eyes. In the finished episode, the original cartoon design of Roger was scrapped in favor of a live-action baby chick being used to portray Roger. However, this design is used in "[[Friendiversary]]."

==="[[Clams]]"===
In [[Clams (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[SpongeGuard on Duty (DVD)|SpongeGuard on Duty DVD]], after Mr. Krabs gets his 1,000,000th dollar at the Krusty Krab, he uses the restaurant's phone to call his parents [[Krabs Senior]] and [[Betsy Krabs]] at the Bikini Bottom Graveyard to tell them about it, only to show that they're long dead. There were paintings made for the payphone and graves before the scene was cut. The reason this scene was cut from the final episode was either due to its punchline having an awkward and somewhat jarring contrast in tone with the scene before it, or to prevent a major continuity error, since Betsy Krabs and Krabs Senior are shown to be alive and well in other episodes.

There would've been an extended gag taking place after Mr. Krabs ditched SpongeBob and drives off where he waits and stands around for a bit before realizing he was ditched. In the final episode, he realizes immediately they he was deserted.

==="[[The Camping Episode]]"===
Originally during the scene when Squidward says, "But what could compare to just lying out under the stars?," he would lay down and find a rock under his blanket, then insist that it's "all part of the roughing-it experience." This would cause him to snap in half, similar how he is cut in half by a pair of scissors in "[[Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy IV]]." This gag was cut for time.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20210930162020/https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1079109821503291393 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref> There was originally a second "bum bum bum" in the "[[Camp Fire Song Song]]" which would cause [[Squidward's brain]] to fly out.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20210429161151/https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1078765303939485697 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref> This gag was also cut for time.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20210429162419/https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1387804838663131139 Jay Lender on Twitter]</ref> In a {{Time|2020}} {{W|TikTok}} video,<ref>[https://www.tiktok.com/@danpovenmire/video/6851699259469876485 Dan Povenmire on TikTok]</ref> [[Dan Povenmire]] revealed that in the original version of the "Camp Fire Song Song" he wrote, Patrick would say, "Letters, letters, letters..." instead of trying and failing to keep up with SpongeBob spelling "Campfire Song" really fast. This change in the final episode was suggested by Dan Povenmire's writing partner at the time, [[Jay Lender]], and Dan admits that he thought it was funnier that way.

==="[[The Sponge Who Could Fly]]"===
There is a deleted scene in [[The Sponge Who Could Fly (storyboard)|the storyboard version]] featured on the [[Lost at Sea (DVD)|Lost at Sea DVD]] that has Patchy ripping off a SpongeBob band-aid when destroying his SpongeBob stuff. The storyboards have another deleted scene where Patchy the Pirate goes inside of [[Don's Import Store & Delicatessen]], but gets kicked out due to the store having a "No Pirates" sign. Don's Import Store & Delicatessen was also originally planned to be called "Shop n Shop" (a parody of {{W|Stop & Shop}}).

==Season 4==
==="[[Have You Seen This Snail?]]"===
The original plot idea for this episode involved Granny fattening Gary up to eat him, but that was changed due to it being too dark.<ref>[https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/756147731823927296 Vincent Waller on Twitter]</ref> As such, she had an ax in the original cut that was replaced with a tray of cookies.<ref>[https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/756199912279199748 Vincent Waller on Twitter]</ref>

==="[[Dunces and Dragons]]"===
In [[Dunces and Dragons (animatic)|the animatic version]] featured on the [[Season 4 Volume 1]], [[The Complete Fourth Season]], [[2-Season TV Pack]], and [[The Third & Fourth Seasons]] DVDs, there's a deleted scene where SpongeBob and Patrick make sure they are okay after falling out of the sky. Another deleted scene involves a scene in which [[SpongeBob and Patrick doppelgängers|human-like "doppelgängers"]] of SpongeBob and Patrick appear. Patrick's doppelgänger wears a pointed hat and SpongeBob's doppelgänger has a neat, square-trimmed haircut. These scenes were cut for unknown reasons.

==="[[Ghost Host]]"===
As shown in the storyboard,<ref>http://zeuscervas.prosite.com/187620/1988079/gallery/spongebob-ghost-host</ref> there are several deleted scenes.
*The Flying Dutchman does a finger trick to SpongeBob after turning into various monsters.
*After the customer in the mattress store wakes up, he says "Oh?! It's you. You gave me quite a start" to the manager.
*Before the party scene, the storyboard shows the Flying Dutchman laying in a pile of junk and sleeping. SpongeBob clears his throat to get the Dutchman's attention, causing the Dutchman to wake up and say "Breakfast? I'd like four fried eggs and three double Krabby Patties." SpongeBob then brings out a plate of steamed coral, asking "How about a healthy serving of steamed coral instead?" The Dutchman asks "Why do ya think I'm getting a little paunchy?" SpongeBob replies "I'm on the outside lookin' in, man." The Flying Dutchman proceeds to take the steamed coral ("Alright, alright, gimme that thing!") and sniff it, then pushes it away in disgust. SpongeBob then says he has to go to work, but that he knows the Dutchman will scare the pants off of someone. The Flying Dutchman mumbles "Yeah, sure," and when SpongeBob asks what he said, he says in a louder voice, "I'll get right on that." SpongeBob then leaves work, and the two say goodbye to each other. Immediately after, the Dutchman grabs the phone and calls his friend Ralph to have a party, which then leads up to the party scene.
*When everyone at the party leaves, [[Incidental 7]] asks the Dutchman "Will I see you again?" The Dutchman then says "When you least expect it, baby!" proceeded by SpongeBob slamming the door.
*Immediately after the aforementioned deleted scene with Incidental 153, SpongeBob goes over his agreements with the Dutchman's residence inside his house, followed by the Dutchman licking SpongeBob's finger.
*When the Flying Dutchman cries after watching the video, SpongeBob comes up to comfort him and says "I know, buddy, I know...," followed by the Dutchman rocking back and forth.
*After the old lady walks away, SpongeBob comes up and asks the Dutchman what happened. The Dutchman sadly says he probably doesn't have it in him anymore, which causes SpongeBob to grab his beard and yell "Nonsense" and pep talks the Dutchman that he still has it in him.
*Originally, before they head up to the gym, SpongeBob tells the Dutchman, "Dutchie! I think we found your next victim!"
*Before Squidward goes to pamper his face, he says, "Thank goodness for days off work... now I can get back to what's '''really''' important... me!" Then, when he comes to his make-up brush, he says "Ah, the beauty of man foundation. Does wonders for a squid-like me. Not that I need it!"
*Squidward was originally going to say, "Get a hold of yourself, Squidward" before saying, "There's n-n-no such things as ghosts."
*After Squidward says, "No! That's impossible!" it shows the Flying Dutchman still doing the finger trick while Squidward says, "Noooo!" before running off.

==="[[Whale of a Birthday]]"===
Pearl's alarm clock was originally going to be a conch shell instead of a clam.
[[File:Whale of a Birthday Pearl's scrapped Pearl's alarm clock.jpg|thumb|center|260px]]

At the end of this episode, Mr. Krabs' line "Don't push your luck, boy," is cut on all American television airings since the premiere,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptE8vjf5Vsc Whale of a Birthday Original 2006 Airing End Line Debunked (05-12-06)]</ref> the {{W|Amazon Prime Video}} version, the [[Netflix]] version, and the [[Paramount+]] streaming release. This is due to the line being said after the screen cuts to black, which was unintentionally cropped out. Despite this unusual edit, the occasional "best of" compilations on [[Nickelodeon]] USA airings, international non-US airings,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3c_9EbrTqE&t=17522s Nicktoons/NickSpongeBob (UK & Ireland, Irish feed) - Continuity and adverts (1st April 2024)]</ref> the {{W|iTunes}} version, and all DVD releases retain the line.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqFWzMv8q7I "Whale of a Birthday" black screen error (Comparison Video)]</ref>
*Even though the scene was left intact on the {{Time|May 27}}, {{Time|2021}} airing, the scene was cut for the {{Time|July 8}}, 2021 airing.

==="[[Karate Island]]"===
The episode originally ended with a dedication to [[Pat Morita|Noriyuki "Pat" Morita]] ({{Time|1932}}–{{Time|2005}}), who voiced Master Udon in this episode and died on {{Time|November 24}}, 2005 due to {{W|kidney failure}}, about six months before the episode premiered in the United States. Morita was best known as Mitsumo "Arnold" Takahashi from the TV show ''{{W|Happy Days}}'', Mr. Miyagi in ''{{W|The Karate Kid}}'', and the [[disney:The Emperor of China|Emperor of China]] in [[disney:Walt Disney Animation Studios|Walt Disney Animation Studios]]' 36th animated feature film, ''[[disney:Mulan (1998 film)|Mulan]]'' and its direct-to-video sequel [[disney:Mulan II|''Mulan II'']]. The dedication card at the end of this episode was removed from American television airings after the [[Best Day Ever marathon]] and has also been removed from all digital and streaming releases on {{W|Amazon Prime Video}}, [[Paramount+]], and {{W|iTunes}}. However, this episode has the dedication left intact on the Polish, Canadian, Australian, Belgian, French, Turkish, Spanish, German, Greek, Russian, Asian, Filipino, Latin American, Malaysian, European, all DVD releases including this episode, and the {{W|Netflix}} version (albeit cut short). The dedication used to be left in the UK and Ireland airings,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GeEzD8alfM Nicktoons UK Christmas Continuity and Idents 2019]</ref> but has since been removed.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTgi84zknpQ SpongeBob SquarePants UK edits - Karate Island]</ref>

==="[[All That Glitters]]"===
According to the storyboard, after Mr. Krabs says, "Go before I lose all me customers," he cries a teardrop saying, "Me money." Squidward asks "What happened?" and Mr. Krabs replies "I don't know."

==Season 5==
==="[[Friend or Foe]]"===
The following are from [[Friend or Foe (animatic)|the animatic version]] featured on the [[Friend or Foe?|Friend or Foe? DVD]]. These deleted scenes can be viewed [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AhlzHr_5Rk here].

*In the scene where the scene pans through the customers eating at Krusty Krab at the beginning of the SpongeBob episode, Mr. Krabs is looking left instead of right.
*When SpongeBob says, "Don't forget your condiments, Plankton" and squirts Plankton with ketchup and mustard, Plankton's cake ship flies around as Plankton says, "Curses!"
*When SpongeBob says, "Why, Mr. Krabs? Why does he hate us so?" SpongeBob was next to Mr. Krabs, not in front of him.
*When Mr. Krabs says, "Well, you might as well blame me, SpongeBob, there was a time when Plankton and I were best friends," Mr. Krabs is holding SpongeBob and then walks over to a table and sits down.
*In the scene with the class bullies laughing at Plankton after Billy hits Plankton with a spitball, Young Man Jenkins does not have his hair.
**It should be noted that he did in the original pan of the class, so it was likely just an animation error.
*When young Sheldon says, "Idiots," the test tubes are being held horizontally and some of the liquid is on the desk.
**This was mostly removed because the result of mixing the two chemicals is an explosion.
*When young Sheldon says, "I'll show you," one of the test tubes is horizontal.
*When the chemicals explode, the exterior of the school is not shown, it is just an explosion cloud.
*After young Eugene says, "Buy things?" the image flips.
*When Stinky Burger is shown in a wide shot, there is writing on the order window door.
*Stinky's hair was originally a vertical block, instead of rounded hair.
*When Stinky breaks up the fight about whether the kids respect or like him, he waves his arm vertically in the air, instead of in front of him.
*The second outfit that Stinky wears did not originally have the medallion.
*When young Sheldon evilly laughs for the first time, it looks different than the final product.
*When young Sheldon is exercising, his arms don't move.
*In the entire grand opening scene, Sheldon and Eugene have hats.
*When the kid says, "Hey," Sheldon and Eugene have their arms up.
*In the scene where Plankton leaves the pepper shaker when he leaves the shaker and stands on the table.
*When Plankton says, "Most of its true, except what really happened. We had created the tastiest burger," he is not wearing the pepper shaker "hat."
*When Old Man Jenkins is knocked out, he is shown next to his car.
*The original headline for the Old Man Jenkins story in the Bikini Bottom Weekly is "Plab Patties KO Old Man Jenkins."
*When Sheldon leaves his and Eugene's restaurant the part of the recipe is his left hand.
*Whenever the Chum Bucket bucket is shown, there are flies around it.
*The result of Big Johnny's barf is worse in the animatic.
*The "TM" after Krabby Patty is not shown.

==="[[Spy Buddies]]"===
According to the [[Spy Buddies (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], instead of Plankton finding SpongeBob and Patrick when they fall into the Chum Bucket, SpongeBob and Patrick were going to see a dispute between Plankton and Karen, which featured Plankton not wanting to go to [[Karen's Mother-in-law|Karen's mother-in-law]] (a car alarm that only says, "Stay away from the vehicle")'s house.

==="[[Good Ol' Whatshisname]]"===
On all DVD releases and international non-US airings (except for the UK and Ireland{{Citation needed}}), [[Richard Pursel]] is credited as one of the 3 writers instead of [[Dani Michaeli]]. According to Dani Michaeli's Twitter account, he wrote the outline for this episode.<ref>https://twitter.com/danimichaeli1/status/1309508718531313674</ref> Richard Pursel stated that Dani Michaeli was actually the writer of this episode, and not him. He also stated that this could possibly be due to a production error. This episode was first made available on the [[Bikini Bottom Adventures (DVD)|Bikini Bottom Adventures DVD]] released on {{Time|June 5}}, {{Time|2007}} with the error, one month before it aired on American television.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJ6K_q6bCac SpongeBob Good Ol' Whatshisname title card (Bikini Bottom Adventures DVD version)]</ref> This mistake was corrected before [[Nickelodeon]] premiered this episode in the United States, and all subsequent American reruns on [[Nicktoons]], digital releases, and streaming services use the corrected credits.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZZ2e45cQtY "Good Ol' Whatshisname" credited writer error (Comparison Video)]</ref>

==="[[New Digs]]"===
According to the [[New Digs (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], there was originally going to be a scene where Gary either was shown being milked or the aftermath of being milked for the snail milk featured in this episode. This was most likely removed as it would have been disturbing and Gary is a male snail, so it would not make sense.

==="[[Roller Cowards]]"===
On current American TV airings, the {{W|iTunes}} version, and the {{W|Amazon Prime Video}} version, "[[Mavericks]]" is replaced with "[[Monster Wave]]," possibly due to copyright issues. There may have originally been a scene planned where SpongeBob and Patrick were going to print the tickets online. However, in the [[Roller Cowards (audio commentary)|audio commentary]] this information came from, the commentators laughed about this, meaning it might have been a joke.

==="[[To Love a Patty]]"===
The following are from [[To Love a Patty (animatic)|the animatic version]] featured on the [[To Love a Patty (DVD)|To Love a Patty DVD]] and the [[From the Beginning, Part 2]] digital release. Many scenes were altered between the animatic version and the final version.

*The scene of SpongeBob screaming at the idea of Patty being eaten isn't present in the animatic.
*In the same scene, there would've been a close-up of SpongeBob ripped in half.
*A few seconds later, SpongeBob would've been shown running into the kitchen, with Squidward following.
*Some of Squidward's hand movements are missing.
*The firehose Gary uses to extinguish the fire looks slightly different in the animatic.
*SpongeBob's fright was originally on the overside of the room.
*Some of SpongeBob's movements when he rejects Patrick and Sandy's offers are different. There also would've been a crowd cheering.
*During the "[[I Can't Keep My Eyes Off of You]]" song sequence, some of the perspectives were differently, Patty was originally shown partially eaten, and already smelling before it hits the water. When SpongeBob sings "I'll never let you out of my sight again! And I'll always keep you out of harms way!," it would've shown multiple stills of SpongeBob.
*After the song there was a deleted scene of SpongeBob in his bed with Patty. This was toned down to them having a picnic in the finished episode to remove any suggestive undertones.
*When SpongeBob arrives at the Krusty Krab, he's shown wearing his wig and suit from "[[The Chaperone]]" on his date with Patty. The colors of his suit were changed for the final version of this episode, and his wig was removed entirely.

==="[[Breath of Fresh Squidward]]"===
There was originally a scene involving [[Incidental 49|a mother fish]] talking to [[Incidental 153|her daughter]]. It was most likely removed in the final cut because of the mother talking to her daughter about her life and her baby were irrelevant to the plot. This scene can be found in [[Breath of Fresh Squidward (animatic)|the animatic version]] featured on the [[Bikini Bottom Adventures (DVD)|Bikini Bottom Adventures DVD]] release. Three more deleted scenes (or lines) were also revealed in the animatic version.
*After SpongeBob says he and Patrick sneak into Squidward's house every morning, he says, "...with our best friend, Squidward."
*After Mr. Krabs hears that Squidward is selling free hats, he said "Did somebody say free... in my restaurant?!" and runs out of his office. In the final cut, he only says, "Did somebody say free?" suspiciously.
*SpongeBob screams after finding out that Squidward made Krabby Patties.

==="[[Money Talks]]"===
According to the [[Money Talks (audio commentary)|audio commentary]], after Mr. Krabs is granted his power to talk to money, he wakes up in his bed and finds a nickel in his belly button. It was originally going to be located in his butt.

==="[[Goo Goo Gas]]"===
Originally, in the scene where Plankton sits on the bench and watches the baby, Plankton would take a baby bottle a few times and then kidnap the baby. The baby's mother would then walk up to the stroller and ask where her baby went. It was heavily implied in the [[Goo Goo Gas (audio commentary)|audio commentary]] that Sadie was not going to be the baby's mother, so it was later cut.

==="[[Le Big Switch]]"===
In the original storyboards (pictured to the right), there was a full scene showing Pearl in her room as she talked on the phone with Mr. Krabs. Their conversation was longer. This scene was cut from the final episode.

==Season 7==
==="[[Someone's in the Kitchen with Sandy]]"===
Originally, Sandy was going to appear fully naked in the episode, but the design was revised to be less grotesque, giving her underwear in the process.

*Sandy covers herself with a construction cone, but after causing an accident a worker blamed her like a thief in front of the police, she runs away and leaves the cone.
*Sandy finds a clothing store, and she goes on it for clothes, but she was taken out by the owner saying that without clothes there's no service.

==="[[Lost in Bikini Bottom]]"===
The [[payphone]] was different in the final version than how it was in the storyboard version. This episode was originally titled "The Shortcut."<ref>https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/618533669402120192</ref> In the [[Bob l'éponge|French dub]], this episode's title is "Le Raccourci," which when translated to English, still uses the original title.

==="[[Married to Money]]"===
When this episode was announced in September 2015, it was going to be about Mr. Krabs marrying a bag of [[money]].<ref>[http://www.lamag.com/culturefiles/5-questions-for-the-voice-of-spongebob-squarepants/ 5 Questions for the Voice of SpongeBob SquarePants]</ref> However, this idea was later changed to a stack of cash controlled by [[Sheldon J. Plankton|Plankton]] known as [[Cashina]] for unknown reasons, possibly because the plot could be made with more complexity and fluidity this way. 

==Season 10==
==="[[Whirly Brains]]"===
According to the rough storyboard, there's a transition that got changed in the final cut. Originally, the box the Whirly Brains came in appeared on SpongeBob's TV, the camera zooms into the screen, and then we fade to the box on SpongeBob's lawn. It was replaced with the usual bubble wipe for unknown reasons. Also, Squidward originally had a nose warmer on him while bathing. On airings of the [[SpongeBob Schwammkopf|German dub]], the title card is mistakenly cut out.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X30OpLa6_hI SpongeBob: Whirly Brains - Title card (German) (ERROR)]</ref> As a result, this episode does '''not''' have an official title card in Germany.

==="[[Unreal Estate]]"===
According to an [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX73a0fKMgc&feature=youtu.be&t=38 animatic posted by Vincent Waller], one of Squidward's paintings from "[[Artist Unknown]]" (''[[Bold and Brash]]'') was originally going to reappear as a decoration in Squidward's house.

==="[[Code Yellow]]"===
In the rough storyboard version, when Squidward and SpongeBob talk about noses, SpongeBob daydreams a nose working at the Krusty Krab when Squidward says "nose job."<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLlCba1k6l4 Code Yellow Rough Storyboard]</ref> This never made it into the final episode because it was time-consuming.<ref>In response to a comment asking why it was cut, Vincent Waller said "Any edits were for time, rather than content."</ref> Squidward's noses originally included a red nose, a female hairstyle, his head being replaced by a robot, and a human nose. The storyboard had scenes of the nurse giving Squidward anesthesia.

==="[[Mimic Madness]]"===
In the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q4ERnXRdN4&t=2m9s original storyboard], when Sandy and Plankton are playing chess and SpongeBob mimics them, {{Link|Karen}} comes out of the [[Chum Bucket]] and laughs at SpongeBob's impression of Plankton. She does not appear in the final cut.

*Also in the original storyboard is a scene where, after imitating Tom, SpongeBob imitates a customer trying to order; the customer laughs and pulls on his cheeks.

[[File:Deleted Scene Toilet.png|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[Life Insurance]]"===
In the rough storyboard version, instead of falling down the stairs at the beginning of the episode, SpongeBob would do his morning routine while the advertisement for life insurance played on his TV, and eventually, the advertiser's foot would come out of the TV and trip SpongeBob to get his attention. [[Fiasco]] would angrily rip up his painting after SpongeBob and Patrick run through it.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wsLcTpdUWc Life Insurance Rough Storyboard]</ref>

==="[[The Incredible Shrinking Sponge]]"===
In the storyboard of this episode, SpongeBob lands in mustard after burning his feet on the grill. However, in the actual episode, he lands in ketchup instead of mustard. Whether this was intentional or an error is unknown.

==="[[Feral Friends]]"===
According to the rough storyboard, there is a deleted scene. Plankton waits for Karen to bring him dinner, but Neptune's Moon turns him into a feral copepod. When Karen brings his food over, she mistakes feral Plankton for a bug and swats him away.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usKVEkhylpI Feral Friends Rough Storyboard]</ref>

*When asked why this was removed, Vincent Waller stated it was due to time constraints.{{Citation needed}}

==Season 11==

==="[[The Legend of Boo-Kini Bottom]]"===
The stop-motion models of Mrs. Puff and Pearl from "It's a SpongeBob Christmas!" were originally going to appear, but their scenes had to be cut from the final episode for time.<ref>[https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/919593344199639040 Vincent Waller on Twitter]</ref>

==="[[Krabby Patty Creature Feature]]"===
There are two storyboards showcasing scenes that underwent changes from the original episode. One of them was in its initial rough form, while the other had been finalized but still underwent some modifications. Both storyboards were shared on YouTube by [[Vincent Waller]], the writer of the show.

'''<big>THE ROUGH STORYBOARD CHANGES:</big>'''

*The [[Secret Patty|Secret Patties]]' color was originally going to be blue, however, it was changed to purple in the second half.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz3MsnKi4lM Krabby Patty Creature Feature Rough Storyboard]</ref>
*SpongeBob was originally going to scream, without his heart open.
*Some of the transformations are way different than the finalized one.

'''<big>THE FINAL STORYBOARD CHANGES:</big>'''
*The [[Secret Patty|Secret Patties]] were originally going to be purple instead of orange.
*When SpongeBob screams and opens his heart, there is no blood in the episode but in the storyboard, there is blood.

==="[[Scavenger Pants]]"===
In the animatic version of this episode, during the shot where the desert sandwich is revealed from the Sand witch's hand, it appears to be that her hand is in full color, and the desert sandwich is in real-life.
*Originally, the desert sandwich's lettuce tongue was more like an actual tongue than the final product in the finished episode.
[[File:Animatic Desert Sandwich.png|thumb|center|260px|The animatic shot of the full-colored Sand witch's hand and the real-life desert sandwich.]]

==="[[Cuddle E. Hugs]]"===
The rough storyboard contains multiple scenes that were cut from the episode.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qei4WuxQa8E Cuddle E. Hugs Rough Storyboard]</ref>

*The Krusty Krab's sign reads "CLOSED."
*Live-action sea bunnies are shown near the [[Aged Patty]].

==="[[Drive Happy]]"===
The rough storyboard contains multiple scenes that were cut from the episode.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zt7cPCq_SOk Drive Happy Rough Storyboard]</ref>

*The [[boat salesman shark]] is a generic fish.
*In the rough storyboard, the scene with Squidward's brain is different. Here, he throws it onto the stand of a man cutting up foods. Squidward's brain is sliced up and deep fried; he then dumps the crumbs back into his head. In the final, Squidward literally erases his memory of SpongeBob by taking out his brain and rubbing a pencil eraser on it.

==="[[My Leg!]]"===
The rough storyboards had many scenes that were changed or deleted.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DULVMoJ5YHM My Leg! Rough Storyboard]</ref>

*During the montage at the start of the episode, [[Bubble Bass]] has a scene where he eats while driving, and runs over Fred's leg.
*The scene where Fred's leg was run over by a mobility scooter was going to be set at the [[Recreation Center]], and would have featured [[Jim (wrestler)|Jim]] and the [[purple wrestler]] in a wrestling match.
*[[Nurse Daisy Bazooka|Nurse Bazooka]]'s nametag reads "Daisy" in the storyboard.
*The [[My Leg! (song)|"My Leg!" song]] was different from the present version, as Fred and the other patients stay in their beds as Fred sings the song.

==="[[Ink Lemonade]]"===
The second customer Patrick sells black lemonade to has a completely different design between the rough storyboards and final. Her name in the [[My Leg! and Ink Lemonade (credits)|closing credits]], "crab lady," reflects her earlier design.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOslmv95AU4&t=169s Ink Lemonade Rough Storyboard]</ref>
[[File:INKlemonadegueststarcredits.png|thumb|center|260px|Credited as crab lady.]]

==="[[Shopping List]]"===
The rough storyboards reveal several scenes being changed or deleted.<ref>[https://www.behance.net/gallery/56197651/SL-Pt-1 Shopping List Part 1]</ref>

*When SpongeBob pats Matilda, it acts like a dog, happily shaking its propeller-like a tail. Matilda is shaped like a normal submarine instead of an acorn.
*When SpongeBob starts to suffocate inside Matilda, Plankton is shown drying up and trying to breathe.
*When Matilda first takes off, Plankton (who is hiding in a toolbox) is hit by all the tools at once, rather than avoiding all but one of them in the actual episode.
*SpongeBob and Sandy travel to the [[Kelp Forest]] to gather long-grained seaweed, a plant that releases extremely poisonous spores if pulled out of the ground. They safely harvest the seaweed, but Plankton doesn't, and he is poisoned by the spores and swells up.

==="[[Whale Watching]]"===
In the original storyboard, Sadie looked more like a mermaid-whale hybrid doll.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlGOlDhwl8A Whale Watching Rough Storyboard]</ref>

==="[[Krusty Kleaners]]"===
*In the rough animatic version, the [[copier]] was the only machine that [[trash bot]] recruited onscreen.
*Also in the rough animatic version, when the [[coffeemaker]] is about to drop onto SpongeBob and Patrick, it shows that the coffeemaker broke from the impact of hitting the floor. This part was cut in the final episode.
*In the final animatic version of the episode, the fridge was originally going to be recruited by trash bot to eliminate SpongeBob and Patrick (and even gaining an antenna). However, the fridge is never made sentient by trash bot in the final episode.
*Also in the final animatic, the [[microwave oven]] and coffeemaker had blue rings underneath them when they were floating.

There was originally going to be a scene of SpongeBob doing a silly dance.<ref>https://twitter.com/crazybaloney/status/1084614527549915136</ref>

==="[[Swamp Mates]]"===
There was going to be a part where Bubble Bass and Patrick get leeches on them.<ref>https://twitter.com/crazybaloney/status/1249063136944062464</ref>

In the [[Nick App]] and the {{W|Amazon Prime Video}} versions of this episode, during the scene where Patrick and Bubble Bass start to run away from the hot sauce gang and the Hoodoo Guru, the log falling over is cut.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYRqLIDfiKg Swamp Mates deleted scene - YouTube]</ref>
[[File:EVWQGr0WkAAgW1U.jpg|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[The Krusty Bucket]]"===
There was originally going to be a scene of a kid fish trying to avoid a bunch of objects being thrown while Mr. Krabs and Plankton were fighting.
[[File:The Krusty Bucket Deleted Scene.gif|thumb|center|260px]]

==="[[Broken Alarm]]"===
There are differences between the storyboard version and the final version of the episode. The final version's changes are described below.

*The background of the scene where Mr. Krabs, Squidward, and the Bikini Bottomites prepare to enter SpongeBob's room is different, and different Bikini Bottomites are present.
*Squidward does not face the Bikini Bottomites and do the "head nod" present in the storyboard, instead only beginning to smile once Mr. Krabs says "horror." Various expressions and angles of characters are also changed, and the "c'mon!" from Squidward and Mr. Krabs is absent.
*Mr. Krabs does not push Squidward back after he places his hand on SpongeBob's bedroom door, and Squidward smiles, but does not grin until Mr. Krabs says "horror."
*Squidward's head is not peeking through the door when it opens.
*The camera pans to SpongeBob's bed instead of zooming out, and his bed is facing a different direction. SpongeBob is sprawled over the bed differently, without a blanket over his body.
*Gary does not lick SpongeBob until the camera cuts to SpongeBob's face.
*The group does not rush over to SpongeBob's bed until later. SpongeBob also does not have the stubble present in the storyboard.
*Mr. Krabs' teeth are not present, and Squidward is not seen in the background.
*SpongeBob does not wake up until after Gary is lifted off his face, not during that moment, and he also has added bubbles above his face. Gary's tongue is also not on SpongeBob's face as he is being removed.
*Gary's spit does not land on SpongeBob's face, and SpongeBob's mouth does not "zing" back onto his face.
*Because the cast of Bikini Bottomites is different, one of them does not put a hat back on.
*The camera is not zoomed out when the Bikini Bottomites leave SpongeBob's room. Squidward and Mr. Krabs do not turn towards them, only looking with their eyes.
*Mr. Krabs picks SpongeBob up and squeezes him, unlike the storyboard, where he places his claws on SpongeBob.
*When being told he is alive, SpongeBob has a different reaction, gasping and grabbing Mr. Krabs' eyes and screaming in the storyboard, and the storyboard notes "blink!" and "mini-take on 'late 4 work'." It is likely that when SpongeBob is screaming, he is expressing that he is late for work, and then he realizes what he has just said. Mr. Krabs and Squidward's dialogue probably also was different because of this. Squidward also has an added eye-roll in the final version.
*Before he pats his alarm clock, SpongeBob has a different expression as he gets down from the bed and does not clutch his bed in agony.
*In the storyboard, SpongeBob's foot is present next to the alarm clock's plug when he realizes it is unplugged, and his expression is slightly different.
*SpongeBob's look of surprise is different as the alarm clock falls.
*No one ducks when the alarm clock crashes around the room, and SpongeBob chooses to hide under the blanket instead of behind the bed.
*The bed does not "spit out" the clock.
*Mr. Krabs and Squidward have different expressions and poses as they dodge the alarm clock. Squidward does not have the look of relief in the storyboard, and Mr. Krabs looks up at Squidward. The clock also hits Squidward at a different angle.
*SpongeBob catches Gary by the shell in the final, not by his bottom.
*Instead of "smoking" the clock, Squidward has his head stuck in it.
*Mr. Krabs' arms are forward instead of to the side, and he looks up at Squidward.
*SpongeBob picks up pieces of the clock while speaking, and Gary is not on screen. He also puts his arms out, cuddles the pieces of the clock, puts his fist down, and then puts his arms around it.
* Mr. Krabs crosses his arms and warns SpongeBob to not be late before leaving the room. Squidward rubs his head, and Mr. Krabs has an added "or else." In the storyboard, Squidward rubs his head later and SpongeBob looks towards Mr. Krabs and Squidward as they look away and leave.
*Ellipses are added to the "1 Hour Later..." time card.
*Mr. Krabs' late notices simply say "late" instead of "late notice" and are white with red text instead of red with white text.
*SpongeBob is knocked out of bed by the punching bag clock instead of getting a black eye and remaining asleep in bed.
*The "Late Again..." time card has four flowers, and some are moved.
*The hive alarm clock was originally a volcano alarm clock, so SpongeBob is burnt and charred with smoke instead of being swollen and pink.
*SpongeBob is originally not on fire, but electric, as if he had been stung by a Jellyfish. It is almost as if these two clocks were swapped.
*The arrows have added plungers in the final version.
*Gary's food bag is not labeled "Snail Po" and the snail on the bag is facing a different direction. The bag also has an added stripe.
*In the scene with the large beeping clock reading "6:00," the cart in front of SpongeBob's bed is missing until the next shot, when it is not missing in the storyboard.
*Roman numerals are added to the clock at the intersection.
*The painting of ''The Persistence of Memory'' looks more like the original version.
*In the storyboard, SpongeBob faces forward in this scene, while in the previous shot, he was sent to face backward. This is fixed in the final version.
*Mr. Krabs waves his claws when saying "that last 'for else'."

==="[[Mind the Gap]]"===
In one scene, the fish present is different from the storyboard.

*Squidward's eyes are slightly different when he says "best friend."

==="[[SpongeBob's Big Birthday Blowout]]"===
In the thirty-minute version, all party planning scenes are cut, along with the "pie dragon" chase and paperclip jungle scenes. Old Man Walker isn't present, SpongeBob's house isn't destroyed, some lines were changed and Patrick is in a different position throughout the birthday song.

*In some countries, John Goodman is present.
*In the YouTube version of the Trusty Slab scene, one piece of dialogue is slightly different.

==="[[SpongeBob in RandomLand]]"===
When this episode premiered in the United States on {{Time|September 21}}, {{Time|2019}}, as Squidward opens the third door from the wall of doors on top of him, shows a room that is clearly identical to his bedroom, as it quickly turns to static with an image of Squidward with red eyes and black dripping tears onscreen, which is a reference to the popular Creepypasta [[List of miscellaneous internet phenomena#Squidward's Suicide|"Red Mist"/"Squidward's Suicide."]]
[[File:RedMistTweet.png|thumb|260px|A screenshot of the now deleted Tweet]]
On {{Time|November 11}}, {{Time|2019}}, Red Mist Squidward was cut and replaced with a Baby Squidward.<ref>[[w:c:nickstory:November 11, 2019|Nickstory - November 11, 2019]]</ref> According to Vincent Waller on Twitter, it was due to a {{W|Broadcast Standards and Practices|Standards and Practices}} issue.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20221201222033/https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/1194285563160887297</ref> Since Waller has removed his Twitter account, this tweet can only be found through the {{W|Internet Archive}}. 

In some countries, such as Russia, early Poland,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ea1E1T6fJ04 Spongebob In RandomLand - Red Mist Squidward - SCENE (POLISH)]</ref> Southeast Asia, France,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PZWsVIYKyo</ref> Wallonia, Brazil, Scandinavia, and Germany (only on Nicktoons), the episode was left uncensored. In the UK and Ireland, the scene was originally unknown at first because they premiered the episode before the US.<ref>[https://tv24.co.uk/channel/nicktoons/2019-09-11 Nicktoons UK - September 11, 2019]</ref> It was deleted at first, but then added the Baby Squidward scene in later reruns.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbhWvFVtsH4 randomland uk censorship has been changed]</ref> In response, Adam Paloian, the supervising director for the episode, thought that "it's actually kind of fun that it got censored," after the US premiered the episode.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190922180400/https://twitter.com/adampaloian/status/1175497577355067392 Adam Paloian on Twitter]</ref>

*In the storyboard, [[Red Mist Squidward]] was originally supposed to get closer to the screen. This didn't make it through the plot for being too scary.

==Season 13==
==="[[Squidward's Sick Daze]]"===
*The painting SpongeBob made was originally going to be a picture of him and Squidward posing together in front of a heart. In the final episode, it was changed to SpongeBob feeding a baby Squidward a bottle of milk.

==="[[Captain Pipsqueak]]"===
*In the initial draft of the script, the [[Thief (The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie)|thief]] (known in the script as "The Boat Jacker") was supposed to call out Man Ray instead of Tattletale Strangler.

==="[[Welcome to Binary Bottom]]"===
*The opening shot of Binary Bottom was supposed to have a worm hologram chase the mailman hologram.

[[File:5z TSIH-2wyX2Vqi.gif|thumb|260px|Patrick makes himself dirty.]]
When Patrick tries to make himself dirty after being cleaned by Squidward, he rubs SpongeBob on his body like a shower brush. The storyboards show that after this, Patrick rubs SpongeBob on his butt, then between his legs, then squeezes SpongeBob's filth onto him.

==="[[The Perfect Camper]]"===
[[Dave Thomas]]'s rough boards for the episode show a few scenes that were later cut.
*After Regigilled stretches out Roh and Rea, they smile confidently. In the final episode, they are dizzy instead.
*Craig is seen doing reps with the dumbbell before throwing it on the ground.
*After the Frigate cabin's preparation is a scene of Patrick scooping ice cream to make a sundae. He then puts condiments on it, and pulls his brain of of his head. His brain grows a mouth and devours the ice cream sundae whole, freezing up after. Patrick puts his brain back in, and it causes his head to freeze. He then collapses on the table face-first, when the sundae bowl flipping over on his head. SpongeBob comes over and rubs his shoulders.
*An unused shot shows the Trawlers pulling needles out of yarn balls.
*In the storyboards, Jimmy, Roxy, and Kidferatu throw their yarn balls at Preda one at a time. In the final, they throw them all at the same time, and she knits them consecutively.
*Plankton is positioned to the middle of the judges table in the rough boards instead of the right like in the final. He jumps on the table and gives a speech, only for Krabs to squash him with an unamused expression.
*When Roxy is tangled up in the net, Lady Upturn appears in the boards, but she is not there in the final episode.
*The badges Rea and Roh win are shaped like two crossed tennis rackets, while in the final they are simply gold medals.
*The boards have an overhead shot of the hammer throw court as Craig enters.
*In the boards, the hammer lands with a "285" marker next to it. In the final, Plankton appears and measures it, then gets crushed by the hammer.
*The boards have an unused shot of the hammer flying into the air before landing on Kidferatu's ashes.
*In the boards, Preda Tory knits Krabs into a recreation of the ''{{W|Vitruvian Man}}''. In the final, she wraps him in a long scarf.
*In the boards, Kevin rides on the horse, when in the final, he is replaced by Harvey. Additionally, the horse is knitted in the boards.
*In the boards, Perch, Harvey, and Bubble Bass raise their swords together to celebrate, then appear on the podium. In the final, these take place at the same time. Perch was removed from this scene in the final, likely because he is also narrating it. In his place, Elwood is added into the second shot.
*Patrick eating the pancakes with Jimmy's slime is more elaborate in the rough boards.

**The "out her face" woman has black hair rather than blonde and a different color pattern behind her in the final version of the episode.

==="[[Uncredible Journey]]"===
*In the rough storyboards, GrandPat slips on a SpongeBob toy instead of a doll.
*The rough storyboards have a montage of the pets going around town to save babies.
*In the rough storyboards, [[Granny Tentacles]] appears instead of Gladys.
*The rough storyboards have a different ending, involving GrandPat hitting Rube with a cane and chasing him away.

==="[[The Lil' Patscals]]"===
*In the rough storyboards, Patrick switches from the traffic light channel to a show with paint drying. A similar joke would be used in "[[Time to Eat]]."

==="[[Super Stars]]"===
Andy Gonsalves' rough boards show a few scenes that were cut from the final version.
*Originally, the "Please Stand By" card Patrick uses was a color bar slide.
*When Patrick is running to change into his superhero outfit, he passes Squidina and tells her to hold his calls. Squidina pushes the phone into the garbage, and it rings.
*The detail of GrandPat being in the porta potty was not in the rough storyboards.
*In the original boards, Patrick says "Up, up, and away!", while the final version changed it to "Up, down, and away!"
*In the storyboards, when the announcer says "Super Patrick with the power of stupid!", Patrick gives a thumbs up and smashes into a wall. In the final, he starts saying, "Actually, I have super belly button--" before smashing into the wall.
*In the storyboards, Patrick says "Dad! We have fire insurance, right? Like, for a whole city?" In the final version, he says "Uh, Dad, what's insurance? And do we have it? And does it cover fire on everything?"
*The scene of the Stars being abducted by the tractor beam was originally longer. Squidina says "Oh, terrific, our show transitions are glitchin' out!", and Cecil responds, "This isn't a show transition! These are tractor beams!" Bunny says "But we're not tractors!", and Patrick says "Is there any way to change the colors? I want purple." GrandPat continues snoring.

==="[[Now Museum, Now You Don't]]"===
*In the rough boards, Patrick and Squidina kiss Cecil to congratulate him, and Tinkle jumps on his head to kiss him afterwards.
*GrandPat's newspaper says "Evening Herald 1912" and "Titanic Sets Sail with New Captain," with a picture of GrandPat in a sailor suit. In the final episode, no text can be read.
*After Cecil leaves, Patrick is overheard saying, "say, can I finish Dad's night breakfast?"

==="[[Chum Bucket List]]"===
*Patrick's slow marathon run was originally going to be shown. The final episode cuts to the medal ceremony.<ref name=donahueS2/>
*In the storyboards, a fish is seen holding a "9.5" scorecard after Patrick's final performance.
*In the storyboards, the curtains after Patrick does his stunt have the ''Patrick Show'' logo from "[[Bummer Jobs]]."

==="[[Dr. Smart Science]]"===
*The intro was longer, including a Patrick recreation of the ''Vitruvian Man'' and him in a depiction of evolution. "[[Star-Robics]]" would later feature a similar scene to the latter.<ref name=donahueS2/>
*Patrick was going to have his head go through his belly button and stick out of his butt.

*Originally, when in space, Patrick was going to show off a "stink planet" with live-action pictures of a skunk, a sock, and stinky cheese floating around it, then put on a live-action gas mask to protect himself from it.<ref name=donahueS2/>

==="[[Too Many Patricks]]"===
[[File:Too Many Patricks Amanda Donahue 4.png|thumb]]
*A shot of [[Pat the Hapless (character)|Pat the Hapless]] raising his axe at a group of children was cut. [[Amanda Donahue]] wrote, "I was also very sad that they cut this shot of Pat pulling his axe out to deal with the children lol."<ref name=donahueS2/>

==="[[Time to Eat]]"===
*During the original version of the song, the line "I'm always in the mood" is accompanied by Patrick looking into a mood ring, which forms a Krabby Patty, and he eats the ring. [[Amanda Donahue]] describes that they cut this because it "ended up not clear enough to read quickly."<ref name=donahueS2>https://www.amandandonahue.com/season-2</ref>

==="[[Pat-per Route]]"===
*Before throwing the paper to Lady Upturn, Patrick replaces the rubber band binding the newspaper with a pearl necklace and says "C'est magnet-feet!"<ref name=patper>https://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/the-patrick-star-show-pat-per-route-storyboard-excerpt/273250872</ref>
*The newspaper bouncing around [[Lady Upturn's mansion]] is more elaborate.<ref name=patper/>
*When Squidward says he bets Patrick can do the one thing no paperboy can, in the storyboards, the lines "Rub my belly and pat my head at the same time?", "Yodel backwards in Norwegian?", and "Sign my name using my feet?" are suggested for Patrick's response. In the final version, he says, "Respect myself?"<ref name=patper/>
*Originally, Patrick fitting Squidward into the bag is more forceful, with him shouting he will make sure nobody harms Squidward.<ref name=patper/>

==="[[Pat Roast]]"===
Mike Pelensky's storyboards feature many scenes that were cut, likely for time.
*Patrick takes out a horn, rubber chicken, and chattering teeth before noticing the arrow in his head.
*Patrick tells another joke: "So word on the street is, the Flying Dutchman's been dating. Or he's been trying to... he keeps getting GHOSTED!" and takes out a ghost puppet while making ghostly noises. The Flim-Flam Brothers are unamused. One boos, scaring an audience member, and the other brother explains that it means Patrick stinks.
*After being heckled, Patrick says, "But hey, folks, enough about me. Is anyone here from out of town?" Harold yells, "I wish I was out of town! Anywhere but here!"
*Slappy's line "Mess with my Patrick, will you?" had an alternate line suggested: "I wish you were out of town, too..."
*After Slappy gets offended, Harold says, "If laughter is the best medicine, we're all gonna be sick!"
*After Harold gets buried, an audience member says, "Aw, but he was funny..."
*Instead of saying "Well, I hope they take an IOU," Patrick says, "Well, I didn't bring my wallet. I'll pay the guests back later!"
*Pat-Tron prints out a joke, which is a line of binary. Quasar says it is not a joke, and Pat-Tron says, "He gets it!" while pointing to the audience. A live-action Macintosh computer is shown, laughing in a deep monotone voice.
*To end their routine, Quasar suggests a dummy routine, which Pat-Tron does himself while using Quasar as the dummy. He asks Quasar to "magically sing opera" while he drinks water. Quasar tries to warn him, but Pat-Tron pours the water on himself, getting electrocuted and falling to the floor. Quasar nervously calls off the routine and asks Pat-Tron to beam them away, but he does not respond. Quasar pauses and asks for someone to call a cab.
*After hearing that the audience wants her to make mean jokes about Patrick, Bunny says the audience should be ashamed of themselves, making them react in shame.
*Bunny shows a picture of the time Patrick stood up on a roller coaster at [[Glove World!]]: "He was so excited he couldn't sit down!" A picture shows a younger Patrick with the top half of his head bent backwards as Squidina, Bunny, and Cecil look on in horror.
*Patrick "figuring out how underwear works" was originally him "getting lost in his own underwear."
*When Patrick's underwear appears, [[Frank (Inc 105)|Frank]] asks "Is... that Patrick's underwear?" Slappy enters and says, "It certainly is! I would know."
*Patrick's underwear says he had not been changed in years, instead of three weeks like in the final.
*Patrick's underwear says, "Jeez, Patrick... Don't you worry about this roast staining your reputation? I know what a stain looks like! It ain't pretty!"
*When Slappy says, "This guy's good!", his own underwear appears, agrees with him, and they laugh.
*Patrick's underwear hops in a hamper and shuts it when GrandPat chases him away.
*Instead of saying, "I hope you brought eyeball diapers, 'cause these jokes are gonna make you wet your face!", GrandPat says, "I've been waitin' to tell ya what's really been on my mind," with a dramatic close-up of his face. Squidina gets worried.
*GrandPat says, "But I like to think of him as a...", instead of "Or as I call him, my..."
*Patrick isn't offended by GrandPat's swearing, saying, "Why's everybody so upset? He's just speaking in dolphin..."

==Movies==
===''[[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie]]''===
*[[Patchy the Pirate]] and [[Potty the Parrot]] were originally supposed to lead the pirate crew. In the final film, they were replaced by a real parrot and [[Captain Bart the Pirate]].
**According to showrunner [[Vincent Waller]], Patchy was replaced "because the movie folks don't really understand his appeal. Intentionally low production values scare them."<ref>https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/652969019788541952</ref>
*After Mr. Krabs says, "It started out as a simple order, a Krabby Patty with cheese," SpongeBob would've said, "So what went wrong?" before the rest of the scene continues normally. Interestingly, this line is still included in the tie-in video game on consoles.
*The animatic and some trailers include a fully animated scene of SpongeBob walking down the path to the front doors of the Krusty Krab after he says, "I'm going in."
*Phil's line when he starts talking about his family was slightly altered from the animatics. He originally said. "Yeah yeah, I've got a lovely wife, and two beautiful children," this was shortened to "I've got a wife and two beautiful children."
*When SpongeBob starts choosing his tool in the Animatic, he says, "I've only got one shot at this. I've got to have the right tool for the job. Bingo!," before he would've said, "I want you to do a favor, Phil." The "Bingo!" line was fully animated.
*There's a fully animated scene of SpongeBob putting cheese on the patty, which was used in a trailer.
*In the animatic, the "ceremony" when SpongeBob says, "Today is the grand opening ceremony of the Krusty Krab 2!" is missing. He also says, "and the announcement of new manager!," instead of "where Mr. Krabs will announce the new manager."
*After the scene where SpongeBob gets ready in his house, he was supposed to walk out to the Krusty Krab 2 before Sandy suddenly ambush him. After fighting a little, Sandy would've then told SpongeBob that she's waiting for a bus that'll take her to the surface to see a squirrel doctor.<ref>https://twitter.com/HeatherIsJoyful/status/1665793834876551168</ref>
*When SpongeBob is depressed at Goofy Goober's in the animatic, he sings, "Goofy goofy goober goober yeah," this is missing in the final. Also, it's shot from in-front of SpongeBob in the animatic, instead of behind.
*In the animatic version, the scene of Patrick's toy getting thrown at him is missing. The scene of SpongeBob hearing "Triple Goober Berry Sunrise" is also missing.
*SpongeBob says, "ah" before "Boy, Pat" in the animatic.
*When SpongeBob asks for another serving, he refers to the waiter as a "bartender."
*There's an extra scene with SpongeBob and Patrick is with Goofy Goober in the animatic. The scene starts with SpongeBob saying "Let me hear you, people," before a son asks his mother if they can go home. SpongeBob and Patrick call them party poopers before they say "Waiter!." This also means the "it's a little ditty called" line is skipped.
*After SpongeBob wakes up, the animatic includes this extra scene. The bartender says "I'm tryin' to get outta here!," before SpongeBob asks for a "double fudge spinny," before the bartender tells him that it's "eight in the morning." This line was rejected from the film but was still used in the [[Ice-Cream Dreams|''Ice-Cream Dreams'' book]].
*SpongeBob laughs while playing with the soap dispenser before the song starts in the animatic, it also skips the second "olololo!" "yeyeye!"
*One of the people in the bar says, "I'm gonna find out who did it!" instead of "Somebody in here ain't a real man."
*When SpongeBob asks Patrick to not sing along during the test, he refers to him by Pat.
*After Squidward starts realizing Plankton's plan, there's a deleted scene of the car driver saying "that's right," before the car drives away, and Squidward saying, "Something smells fishy around here. And for once it isn't my laundry."
*Once Squidward enters the Chum Bucket, he says "So, you're selling '''the''' Krabby Patty, eh Plankton?," instead of "So you're selling Krabby Patties, eh, Plankton?"
*After SpongeBob and Patrick stop laughing at Patrick's Victor imitation, there's an unused line with SpongeBob "How about when he's all like? Well, well, well looks like we've got ourselves a double baby!" before Patrick would've said. "And then they were all like. It wasn't us, it wasn't us!"
*SpongeBob shows Patrick a pocket calendar, reading March 13th, presumably explaining that they only have one more day left of their quest, and would have taken place after they sing "[[Now That We're Men]]." All that is known about this particular scene is of a still promotional image that has been released to promote the film, presumably before its release, meaning that the scene was fully animated.
*The scene of Patrick saying "hi" to one of the skulls isn't present in the animatic. SpongeBob's response to Patrick is also missing.
*When Patrick saves SpongeBob, he doesn't ask if he has the ice cream in the animatic.
*The beginning of Now That We're Men includes the extended intro from the background track, Fight! Fight! Fight!.
*When Patrick's pants are ripped off, it shows the monster that ripped it off.
*The last verse of Now That We're Men has very different shots.
*After SpongeBob and Patrick escape Shell City, they would have encountered Sandy in the middle of a city, who here has the appearance of a real-life squirrel causing Patrick to vomit out of disgust. In the same deleted scene, Sandy is also getting constantly pursued all over the place by squirrel exterminators in black suits. She also mentions that there are buses that arrive in Shell City and [[Bikini Bottom]]. Shortly after this, SpongeBob and Patrick would've then ran past human versions of themselves. This would would [[SpongeBob's Big Birthday Blowout|eventually]] [[JimBob|come]] to [[Patrick (live-action)|fruition]] about {{Time|2019|15 years later}}.
*A fully made scene of [[David Hasselhoff]] jumping out of the water. This was in a trailer.
*Originally, the movie would've ended with Mr. Krabs appearing in SpongeBob's room with the "MANAGER" hat.

===''[[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water]]''===
Some scenes that were shown in the trailers and TV spots that did not end up in the final film include:
*SpongeBob and friends singing "[[Thank Gosh It's Monday]]," which would have been used to begin the movie.
*In the first trailer, [[Burger Beard]] explains that the [[Magic Book]]'s powers can only be activated by having the Krabby Patty formula. However, that idea was scrapped. Now things can come true by re-writing the story even without the formula.
*Originally, when Mr. Krabs discovers that there was no more Krabby Patties in the freezer and that SpongeBob did not remember the formula. Mr. Krabs would tell him to make something which would end up as a [[Nasty Patty (food)|Nasty Patties]]. Mr. Krabs says that these patties will have to do. After Mr. Krabs serves them to the customers, they throw up on Squidward and accuse SpongeBob of poisoning them. Despite being cut from the movie, the Nasty Patties still appear in ''[[SpongeBob HeroPants]]'' as a weapon for throwing at enemies.
*Sandy in her treedome is doing the hypothesis of hunger on a chalkboard. Once Sandy is done doing that, The End page lands on her treedome. This scene was changed to Sandy in her treedome eating a Krabby Patty while watching Bikini Bottom action news on her TV.
*A scene with SpongeBob infiltrating the angry mob by dressing like them with a fake tat. It's unknown where it would've been set in the movie.
*SpongeBob and Plankton time-traveling to the Mesozoic era, where they encounter [[Patrickosaurus]] and [[Squidasaurus Rex]]. This scene was taken out of the movie. However, both dinosaurs appear in ''SpongeBob HeroPants''. This was either cut to save time or to surprise the audience when Patrick returns to the present with the Squidasaurus Rex.
**Another time-traveling scene had SpongeBob and Plankton visiting Bikini Bottom in the future twice with all of the citizens being cyborgs and steam-powered cyborgs. But it was cut possibly to save time or it was changed to a desert part of Bikini Bottom.
*A mad car chase scene with SpongeBob and Plankton and ends with SpongeBob receiving an F- from [[Mrs. Puff]] after crashing. This was cut for unknown reasons.
**According to a Q&A with [[Dave Cunningham]], remarking his favorite deleted scenes, he said, "I snuck a parody of Brad Vandergrift into a car chase scene in ''Sponge Out of Water'' that was cut when that sequence didn't make it... that's definitely one."
*A montage of Mr. Krabs thoroughly cleaning SpongeBob's brain, similar to "Brainwashing," this was cut to save time.
*Plankton telling SpongeBob to make Krabby Patties by using his memory muscles at the [[Taco Haüs]]. This was scrapped and instead replaced with SpongeBob, Plankton, and Karen building a [[Time machine (The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water)|time machine]] with using stuff inside Taco Haüs.
*SpongeBob saying, "Clean it up just clean it up" during the scene where he clean up the remains of Jupiter and Saturn under the floor.
*A scene of Burger Beard in his ship is telling his seagulls a story about him when he was younger. This was most likely cut to save time.
*In the scene where Patrick eats a gigantic ice cream, it was planned to be on the beach and not in the kid's hand.
**It was also supposed to be a 3 scoops ice cream cone held by a woman.
*A cameo appearance by [[Saul Hudson]] as a street musician. Like David Hasselhoff jumping out of the water, it was in the trailer
*A shot of SpongeBob, flying in the sky.
*A shot of Mr. Superawesomeness' pants ripping off revealing his underwear with him saying, "Nothin' to see here."
*Two girls commenting on the superheroes, stating they're from their spin class.
*When Sour Note plays his clarinet, it was supposed to play farting noises.
*A shot of SpongeBob saying, "Maybe you should get that checked out" cutting to reveal Patrick has a hole in his head saying, "Why?" This was removed for unknown reasons.
*Burger Beard throwing a 6-pack can holder at Sour Note who gets tangled by it.
*Mr. Krabs saying, "The pirates gonna destroy our world!"

===''[[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run]]''===
''See also: [[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run/production#Deleted storylines]]'' 

*The movie's storyline changed many times through its development. Originally pitched as a hybrid live-action/animated movie, the plot would have focused around Gary being kidnapped by King Neptune and taken to Atlantis in order to be cloned. [[Paramount Pictures]] rejected it as they feared that the movie would underperform due to being set in Atlantis.<ref>https://twitter.com/paultibbitt/status/1197737848138371073</ref>
**Another storyline taking a more "Science-fiction" approach and featuring anthropomorphic cats as the main antagonists was later made. According to multiple concept art and storyboards, Gary was kidnapped by the cats leading SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward and Sandy to rescue him. Throughout the story, they would have visited different worlds such as a futuristic-like world inhabited by dolphins. According to an interview with [[Tim Hill]] about the movie, the reason why this second storyline was scrapped was because "the previous script was a bit too far-fetched." And that "Steve was always a fan of grounded, relatable and simple stories."<ref>https://www.animationmagazine.net/features/snail-of-a-tale-tim-hill-gives-us-the-scoop-on-the-spongebob-movie-sponge-on-the-run/</ref>

*The flashbacks set in [[Kamp Koral (location)|Camp Coral]] were originally at the start of the movie.
*[[Margaret SquarePants]] and [[Harold SquarePants]] were originally meant to drive SpongeBob to Camp Coral. They still appears in [[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run - The Junior Novelization|the junior novelization]], and the [[Welcome to Camp Coral!]] and [[Happy Campers!]] books.
*The opening scene was different and would have featured [[Pearl Krabs]] rollerskating around [[Eugene H. Krabs and Pearl Krabs' house|her house]] while Mr. Krabs counts money. In the final cut, this scene was shortened to only include Mr. Krabs counting money.
*In a deleted scene, Patrick would've attempted to surprise SpongeBob by doing a "Ninja Sumo Surprise" grip.
*In a deleted scene, SpongeBob would've stopped by Sandy's house where he would saw her, farming in her Treedome.
*After SpongeBob entered the Krusty Krab, he would suddenly start to build a clock card machine called "Punch-O-Matic." This scene can be seen in the bonus feature "The Amazing Stages of Animation" in the DVD and Blu-ray release of the movie.
*Plankton would've sung a scrapped song where he laments on his failures.
*Poseidon's Palace had a different design in some storyboards.
*When SpongeBob first searches for Gary, the slime was originally green, but was later changed to blue.
**Also, when SpongeBob looks in [[Gary's litter box]] in the first trailer, Gary's droppings are visible in his litter box, but in the second trailer, it is removed. In the finished movie, the version with Gary's droppings being visible in his litter box is used, but with a different expression on SpongeBob's face.
*The scene where SpongeBob stands on the street shouting Gary's name in despair is replaced with him shouting Gary's name through his pineapple, which appears with SpongeBob's mouth.
*The scene where SpongeBob asks Sandy, Squidward and Mr. Krabs if they have seen Gary from the first trailer is not in the final movie.
**Patrick's line "Friends don't let friends go on dangerous quests alone!" from the said trailer is also omitted.
*Originally in order to motivate SpongeBob, Patrick would've sung a song titled "[[Things Go Better With Friends]]."
*There's two versions of the same scene where SpongeBob kicks his front door open. In the first trailer, SpongeBob has a mad look on his face while Patrick talks to him. While in the World Laughter Day TV spot, SpongeBob is shown plugging his nose and airing himself while laughing with Patrick. Also, the background is brighter.
*During their road-trip, SpongeBob, Patrick, and Otto would've drove through a sulfur-filled coral field at one point.
*SpongeBob and Patrick were originally meant to dresses up as fake celebrities in order to infiltrate Poseidon's Palace, instead of crashing through the palace with a scooter. This scene can still be found in the junior novelization and [[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run - The Great Gary Rescue!|The Great Gary Rescue!]] book.
*On the Nickelodeon USA TV premiere of this movie, SpongeBob's line "It sure feels over. And crappy." was edited to remove "And crappy," Also on the Nickelodeon premiere of this movie, Squidward's line "Okay, fine, he's mostly super freaking annoying" was edited to remove "freaking." The lip-sync wasn't edited, however.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s5OvMd1ET0</ref>
