Nickelodeon wants to have the next one.
On Monday, the network announced that such a yack-fest would be a sort-of spin-off from SpongeBob Sqaurepants in that SpongeBob's best friend, Patrick Star (Bill Fagerbakke, ex-Coach, Gargoyles), would be getting his own talk show.
Sounds to me like Nick suits have taken notice of a certain Muppet talk show on HBO Max, and want some of that action.
Can you picture Patrick in a suit?
Nick has an order for 13 episodes of The Patrick Star Show, which, we must assume, would debut in 2021, if not sooner. But, then, the question becomes one of, would Nick's target audience, weaned on SpongeBob for the last 20+ years, be interested?
Of course, the network is hoping the answer is yes. Stay tuned.

I'm hoping for it to be good like The Casagrandes.
We'll see.
How about a different attraction?
Seems Fresh Prince is getting a reboot - as a drama series!! Will Smith fell in love with the concept posed in a fan's video:

Hollywood Reporter has the scoop!
I read about that, and that'll be fodder for a column over at the Land of Whatever.
Spinning off a prominent supporting character into a lead role 9 times out of 10 is a bad idea. Anyone remember Planet Sheen?
Yeah, that was a bad idea, wasn't it?
