Tom Kenny Best SpongeBob Squarepants Episodes: What if the mythical creatures aren’t just a myth? What if they all existed a long time ago and slowly blended with humans through the years?
You could see the grace of fairies in ballerinas as they glide across the floor. You could see the speed of centaurs in Usain Bolt as he sets multiple world records.
And as for cyclops, you can see their ability to change their voices in…
…Tom Kenny.
Tom Kenny is an American actor and comedian from New York who’s done well in several movies and stand-up comedy. But Tom Kenny’s success lies in his ability to give life to our favorite cartoon characters.
It’s like he’s got a built-in voice changer machine!
Tom Kenny is best known for being the voice of the title character in Spongebob Squarepants.
Aside from the excellent storyline, his iconic Spongebob Squarepants laugh left kids and adults alike hooked from Day 1.
In addition to that…
Tom Kenny’s voice acting skills brought about a one-of-a-kind voice for Iron Man in The Super Hero Squad, Leo Callisto from Miles from Tomorrowland, Commander Peepers from Wander Over Yonder, and played Uncle Howee in The Haunting Hour.
What makes it even more impressive is that every voice he speaks is different from the last. It’s even different from his normal speaking voice!
Pretty cool, right?
That’s not even the best part.
The best part is that is not even the end of Tom Kenny and his long list of characters he voiced. That is just the tip of the iceberg of his actual list.
MIND. OFFICIALLY. BLOWN.
Scroll down to see how many more of your favorite characters have the voice of Tom Kenny!
#1.Spongebob Squarepants
Drop the anchor, matey because we have reached bikini bottom.
Among all of the voice acting Tom Kenny has done, his work as Spongebob Squarepants is his most outstanding achievement.
Aside from the ongoing TV series…
Spongebob Squarepants got three successful movies – The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, The Spongebob Movie: Sponge out of Water, The Spongebob Movie: Sponge on the Run, and a Spongebob Squarepants tv special, The Krusty Krab Training Video.
But did you know, he didn’t just voice Spongebob Squarepants?
Tom Kenny IS also the voice of several other characters in the animated series and movies, such as his pet snail Gary, his father Mr. Squarepants, Patchy the Pirate, and even the voice of the Narrator.
He could have easily voiced the entire show, and we wouldn’t even know it!
If you ever find yourself looking for a good laugh, you could always count on Spongebob Squarepants and its diverse content.
And just between you and me, the episode Band Geeks really crack me up!

#2.The Ultimate Spiderman
Tom Kenny is not limited to goody-two-shoes roles like Spongebob Squarepants. He can also play a pretty convincing bad guy if he wanted to.
He definitely gave us the hibbie jibbies when he played Doctor Octopus in the animated series The Ultimate Spiderman.
Nothing more terrifying than a mad scientist with a machine voice. Eek!
Those nail-biting fight scenes wouldn’t have been as good without the peeved voice of Doctor Octopus threatening to end Spiderman and his snarky comebacks.
Tom Kenny also played another bad guy but from another superhero universe Crazy Quilt from DC Super Hero Girls.

Heads up, fellas! Tom Kenny is the good guy again on this one.

#4.Teen Titans GO!
Guess what? Tom Kenny is the bad guy again.
And not just any villain but the Magic God, the ruler of all things magical and a force to be reckoned with throughout the magic realm.
And if that’s not enough…
With Tom Kenny as one of his voice actors, the Magic God reeked of too much power that even Raven, the most powerful among the Teen Titans, doubted their chances of winning against the ruler of the magic realm.

#6. Rocko’s Modern Life
Who would’ve thought that the same guy who voiced the happy go lucky Spongebob Squarepants could also voice the nervous willy Heffer Wolfe from Rocko’s Modern Life?
Tom Kenny continues to please. We are only halfway through the list, but we can already see what a talented man Tom Kenny is.
His character even got a catchphrase that was so good that it was included in the opening credits.
“That was a hoot!”

#7. The Powerpuff Girls
I know what you’re thinking.
What? Can Tom Kenny voice a female character?
Well, judging from his track record, he probably can.
But not in this animated series.
Tom Kenny voiced the sweet old mayor, Mr. Tinkerton. Even the Powerpuff Girls could never resist helping an older man with the sweet voice thanks to Tom Kenny.
What an unlucky mayor he is to have a town that always gets in trouble, and they have to depend on three little girls whipped up in a lab to save them.

#8. Plastic Man
This character right here is a hero of many shapes and sizes. Plastic man has the ability to change himself from one object to another…
…much like Tom Kenny can with his voice.
Plastic Man started out as a comic, which was great and all but lacked something the animation had—the voice of Tom Kenny.
Program Creator/s: Jack Cole
Starring: Tom Kenny, Dana Snyder, Joey Cappabianca
Distributed by: Filmways
Release date: March 28, 1969
Running time: 120 minutes
#9. WordGirl
Ever heard of a Superhero who fights crime with her alien superpowers and out-of-this-world vocabulary? Tom Kenny sure has.
He even fought against one. Technically speaking, it was a character he voiced who fought one but potato-potato.
Tom Kenny was the voice of Dr. Two Brains, the primary antagonist of Word Girl. You know what they say, two brains are better than one but apparently not enough to outsmart one measly little alien girl with strong vocabulary skills.
Program Creator/s: Dorothea Gillim ’86
Starring: Dannah Phirman, Chris Parnell, Maria Bamford, Tom Kenny, Ryan Raddatz, Jack D. Ferraiolo, Patton Oswalt, Fred Stoller, Grey DeLisle
Distributed by: PBS
Release date: November 10, 2006
Running time: 30 minutes
#10. Adventure Time
Tom Kenny is the Ice King’s voice, a character with an ice-cold heart but with a warm twist.
The series started out with the Ice King as the main villain, but it was slowly revealed as the story progressed that {SPOILER ALERT} he was actually a good guy under a curse.
Program Creator/s: Pendleton Ward
Starring: Jeremy Shada, Pendleton Ward, John DiMaggio, Tom Kenny, Hynden Walch, Olivia Olson, Niki Yang, Kent Osborn, Dee Bradley Baker
Distributed by: Warner Bros. Television Studios, WarnerMedia Entertainment

#11. Spyro
Spyro is a video game series starring Tom Kenny as Spyro the Dragon. Nobody ever plays a video game on mute. That’s because the sound effects add an underappreciated spice to our gaming experience.
#12. How Murray Saved Christmas
How Murray Saved Christmas is a tv special adapted from a book written by Mike Reiss. From the title itself, Murray saves Christmas much like Tom Kenny saves multiple franchises because of his voice.
Conclusion: 12 Best SpongeBob Squarepants Episodes
He’s Spongebob alright. With a little bit of the Ice King and a little sprinkle of the gentle Mr. Tinkerton.
Can we just say thanks Tom for the awesome childhood?
