## Differences Between This and *SpongeBob As Told By*

* The puppets have modifications made to them:
	+ SpongeBob, The Octopus in the Beaver Hat, Mzeebo and Dappermane are live-hand puppets instead of rod-hand puppets.
	+ Patrick has arms that have more range and are overall more accurate to his original T.V. series counterpart.
	+ Squidward and The Octopus in the Beaver Hat's mouths have a mechanism that would alter their angle depending on the position of their lower jaws: an underbite results in a grin while pulling the jaw in produces a frown.
* The puppets and sets are more professionally constructed to properly create the feeling that the episodes were translated into puppetry. That’s because the puppets were created by the Puppet Heap workshop, the studio that currently build puppets for Muppet projects.
* Whereas *SpongeBob As Told By* focused on the show's cast retelling their favorite episodes using puppets, this series takes it the extra mile and recreates the full episodes matching the orginal audio.
