2006 SpongeBob New Year's commercial

Do you have any other details about where you first heard of it? Who's claiming it exists, sources for the claim, and stuff like that.

I love the category but this is like the third unknown SpongeBob thing that's popped up within the past few months. Are there really that many lost commercials from as far into the series as the mid to late 2000s?

From the commercials I've seen, they all are pushing Christmas, so I think we should hunt for Nick Recordings from 12/26/06 to 01/05/07 (just in case the promotion lasts into the New Year).

Not the most reliable source...

Well maybe, cartoonfan18 didn't mention if it's shown before New Year's Day 2006 or New Year's Eve that year, so maybe it's from 2005's year-in-review promo. Though the promo could actually be a teaser promo that's only shown on New Year's Day 2006. Nickelodeon promoted the episode heavily between December of 2005 to the official premiere on February 20, 2006, so it might be a teaser promo of some kind that only aired at the beginning of the year. I remembered that Kim Possible also did something similar to promote the 4th season. Disney kicked off 2007 with a teaser promo for the final season. I can't remember if that promo is still up online or not. I think Cartoon Network also did a special teaser promo for something (like one of their upcoming shows at the time) and premiered it on New Year's Day.

Huh, I’m wondering if the commercial was some sort of special New Year’s themed promo for Dunces and Dungeons (aka “Lost in Time” as it was advertised then) that only aired on New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day or if it was just a standard promo for the episode that happened to air on those days with no mention of New Year’s. Like pinkhippo said, the episode was heavily advertised during that period. Of course, this is all assuming the commercial is from the New Year’s 2005 going into 2006 and not 2006 going into 2007.

If 2006 into 2007 is the case, Sebby brought up a good point about Nick’s year-in-review promos. I found one on YouTube of 2007, but couldn’t find one for 2006. Maybe one wasn’t made for 2006, or maybe it just isn’t archived online.
