[edit] History

Part of the ruining of Squidward Chat. Plankton is seen here with his death ray.

The origins of Squidward Chat trace back to when Bikini Bottom Public Access had canceled Fab and Fancy in favor of a new show, The Guitar Lord. Squidward, whose favorite show was Fab and Fancy, got infuriated about the show's sudden cancellation and called the GL's host Zeus, who told him that it is so easy to get a TV show. Squidward got inspired and called the BBPA to request his own television show; he would successfully get one, deciding on a talk show. He names his new show Squidward Chat, planning it to be about personal subjects of his such as arts. However, SpongeBob and Patrick see him on TV and Squidward ultimately hires them as the show's sound man and camera man, respectively. Mr. Krabs sees the show as well, setting off a chain reaction in which Sandy, Pearl, and Plankton all see the show; all four appear and ruin it because they want to join the fun whether Squidward likes it or not, with Mr. Krabs and Plankton even going as far as to promote their respective restaurants. Squidward tries to make them leave, but his mention of "housewarming" is overheard by Larry, who thinks Squidward is actually having a housewarming and calls in more Bikini Bottomites to Squidward's house, which effectively ruins Squidward Chat outright. Later, the show is cancelled in favor of a show similar to the performance of the gang on Squidward Chat called Squidward's House Party, much to Squidward's displeasure.
