Bongos and SpongeBob

Fresh from all of the Burger King “I like square butts” controversy*, tonight’s episode of “SpongeBob Squarepants” guest-stars Johnny Depp — not as a pirate, but as Jack Kahuna Laguna, a muscle-bound surfing guru who must teach marooned SpongeBob and starfish pal Patrick to hang ten so they can return to their home of Bikini Bottom.

Sporting stringy blond hair and a 5 o’clock shadow, the laid-back Laguna bears more than a passing resemblance to Matthew McConaughey (he even plays the bongos, but remains clothed).

The first SpongeBob episode to be aired in HD, “SpongeBob SquarePants vs. The Big One” was previously available only on a compilation DVD released March 3rd of this year. The episode airs on Nickelodeon Friday at 7 p.m. Central.
