The Krusty Krab talent show a.k.a. The Squidward Tentacles Talent Show is a talent show directed, produced, and founded by Squidward Tentacles. It is shown in the episode "Culture Shock" and the book Krusty Krab Adventures.

Description[]

Origins[]

The Krusty Krab talent show is born when Mr. Krabs realizes that the Krusty Krab is running low on profits. Mr. Krabs calls SpongeBob and Squidward into his office for a brainstorming session. After many ridiculous ideas made up on the spot by SpongeBob, Mr. Krabs suggests live entertainment. Squidward then jumps up from his seat and suggests a floor show, but quickly changes his mind to a talent show, starring him. Thus, the Krusty Krab Talent Show is born.

SpongeBob's original profit-bringing ideas[]

  • A free pair of socks with every purchase!
  • Double Krabby Patty Midnight Madness Sale!
  • Mouth-Full-of-Clams-Day: anyone who shows up with a mouth full of clams gets a free drink!

Media[]

On opening night, many reporters came to interview about the talent show at Bikini Bottom's finest restaurant. After reporting about it, it was broadcasted on many television stations across Bikini Bottom for anyone who did not have a ticket or could not go.

Budget[]

Since Squidward was the producer of the show, he had to come up with all the money to put on the show. The budget was almost paid off after hundreds of Bikini Bottomites came and watched the show, but was finally paid off after everyone paid $1 to throw one food at Squidward during his unpopular act.

The profits of the Krusty Krab shot way up after the season of shows.
