==Premise==
The series centers around Patrick as he hosts his own talk show from his family home. His sister, [[Squidina Star|Squidina]], helps him run the show and is far more competent than him. His [[Bunny Star|par]][[Cecil Star|ents]] and [[GrandPat Star|grandfather]] are too clueless to help out most of the time, but their shenanigans often end up impacting Patrick's show.

==Characters==
===Main===
The spin-off's main characters are the members of the Star family: Patrick, his sister Squidina, his parents Bunny and Cecil, and his grandfather GrandPat.

==Trivia==
*Squidina was first created for the original ''SpongeBob'' series. She debuted in "[[Goons on the Moon]]" as a friend of Pearl, and later returned in "[[The Goofy Newbie]]." After the latter episode, [[Vincent Waller]] stated, "You have not seen the last of Squidina. We have special plans for her. I can't say when you'll see her again, but you will!"<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20191020034435/https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/1185751958402920448</ref> Later, ''The Patrick Star Show'' was announced<ref name="deadline" /> and eventually revealed to feature Squidina Star.<ref name="nickalive" /><ref name="tvline" />
*This is the second spin-off of the series, with the first being {{KKSUY}}.
*After ''[[w:c:jimmyneutron:The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius|The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius]]'' and its spin-off ''[[w:c:jimmyneutron:Planet Sheen|Planet Sheen]]'', ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' and its spin-off ''The Patrick Star Show'' are the second pair of [[w:c:nickelodeon:Nicktoons|Nicktoons]] where the spin-off focuses on the titular character's best friend.
**The first one ended in 2006 before its spin-off ''Planet Sheen'' began in 2010, unlike ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' and its concurrent spin-offs ''Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years'' and ''The Patrick Star Show''.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20200811160939/https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/1293217895867006976</ref>
*The concept of a character hosting a talk show is similar to ''[[Squidward Chat]]'' and ''[[Snark Chat with Bubble Bass]]''.
*This is the second Patrick-focused show, with the first being the web series ''[[All About Patrick]]''/''[[The Patrick Sitcom Show]]''.
*Although this spin-off focuses on Patrick and his family, {{Link|Sam}} is not present; she was lost from sometime when she and Patrick were kids{{e|Big Sister Sam}} until "[[Big Sister Sam]]," with this spin-off being a prequel that appears to be set between their separation and reunion. Also, in "[[Something Smells]]," Patrick says he doesn't have a sister.
**According to Vincent Waller, they were considering adding Sam to ''The Patrick Star Show'', but she did not appear at the start of the series, with Squidina Star instead taking her place as Patrick's sister.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20210306145541/https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/1368212973572001798</ref>
**Sam would later appear, albeit as a background character, in the episodes "[[Klopnodian Heritage Festival]]" and "[[Tying the Klop-Knot]]."
*In the original show, Patrick has parents named [[Margie Star|Margie]] and [[Herb Star|Herb]]. In the spin-off, they have different appearances and are named Bunny and Cecil. The final episode to feature their original appearance was "[[Patrick's Tantrum]]."
**When asked on why Patrick's parents look different in the spin-off, showrunner Vincent Waller responded: "We felt the original iterations of the characters, while they worked for that episode, they were boring as characters. They were NOT entertaining or fun. These two are so much more fun."<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20210304180334/https://twitter.com/VincentWaller72/status/1367535809830608898</ref>
**[[Ian Vazquez]] clarified: "As someone who's on the show I can say they're officially just a redesign of the old parents (his dad even still has the same voice) into...stars!"<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20210305204120/https://twitter.com/TweetinV/status/1367938023489343488</ref> 
***Character designer Chris DeRose has also referred to Margie and Herb as Bunny and Cecil's old designs.<ref>https://twitter.com/ScratchyDerose/status/1749244581084901757</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/ScratchyDerose/status/1749250058296365551</ref>
*In an interview with ''{{W|Variety (magazine)|Variety}}'', Waller and [[Marc Ceccarelli]] said that they intentionally deviated from ''SpongeBob'' canon to allow for more creative freedom. "We see it like a jar sitting up on a shelf in the corner with a label that says canon on it, and we recognize that, but we also treat every episode like a standalone that can go anywhere in the universe," explained Waller. The pair also acknowledged that the move would not sit well with some of ''SpongeBob''<nowiki/>'s ardent fans.<ref>https://variety.com/2021/tv/festivals/the-patrick-star-show-nickelodeon-annecy-1235000301/</ref>
*The show started development during the {{W|COVID-19 pandemic}} in 2020.<ref>https://twitter.com/PinkieToons/status/1405737181155454986</ref>
*This is [[Squidasaurus Rex]]'s first appearance since his debut in ''[[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water]]'' and its video game ''[[SpongeBob HeroPants]]''.
*Similar to ''[[w:c:renandstimpy:The Ren & Stimpy Show|The Ren & Stimpy Show]]'', which Vincent Waller also worked for, this show includes fake commercials in the episodes.
*Promos for the series on Nickelodeon include a cover of the [[David Bowie]] song "{{W|Starman (song)|Starman}}"- Bowie had previously appeared in "[[Atlantis SquarePantis]]" and had one of his songs used in the [[SpongeBob SquarePants (musical)|''SpongeBob'' musical]].
*The first episode, "[[Late for Breakfast]]," was uploaded by the [[SpongeBob SquarePants Official]] {{W|YouTube}} channel on {{Time|July 13}}, 2021.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmQ1yWkqpPI The Patrick Star Show 🌟 Series Premiere! | FULL EPISODE - YouTube]</ref>
[[File:Friendiversary 020.png|thumb|260px]]
*The series was referenced in "[[Friendiversary]]" in SpongeBob's memory book.
**An episode from this series ("[[Bummer Jobs]]") was also seen flickering on SpongeBob's eyes when SpongeBob remembers Squidward.

*Since "[[Something Stupid This Way Comes]]," [[Stephen Hillenburg]] is now credited as the creator as the series.
