I am too. It's just that Spongebob is going to have two spinoffs. Kamp Koral and an unnamed Squidward spinoff.

In October 2018, Brian Robbins became the president of Nickelodeon. On Robbins' second day at Nickelodeon, he attended a pitch meeting for season 13 of SpongeBob. This inspired him to come up with a variety of his own ideas for spin-off shows and new characters because Robbins disliked that SpongeBob had "always stayed the same."

I've heard that the late Stephen Hillenburg(the creator of Spongebob) was strongly against spin-offs, crossovers, and "aging down" the characters. When he first pitched the show, Nickelodeon executives said that they would only greenlight the show if he made SpongeBob and his friends into kids. He was strongly opposed to this meddling and was about to quit Nickelodeon until he came up with a compromise, which was putting SpongeBob in a boat driving school so he could remain an adult-aged character, which explains why Kamp Koral(the first Spongebob spinoff) received so much controversy. Fans have attempted to spread an incorrect rumor that Stephen Hillenburg's family is working on Kamp Koral, but this is false. Neither Karen nor Clay have ever worked on the series and are not even cartoonists or writers. Vincent Waller, the showrunner of Kamp Koral, stated that he has no "first-hand knowledge" of what the Hillenburgs are doing, since they are not working on Kamp Koral. He also said: "I can only guess they are doing their level best to deal with the grief of losing their husband, father, brother and son.
