You know why they haven't made a modern one? They don't need to. Just watch any typical episode of SpongeBob SquarePants, and then insert your anti-drug message into the credits. You can't get any more stereotypical crackfiend then the way those two act. Seriously, watch your favorite episode (they haven't made mine yet, you know...the one where Squiddard kicks them in the head so hard they magically obtain common sense) and picture them smoking a big bowl of rocks before the show. You'll see my point.
I remember when children's programming made you think. Global GUTS had us arguing over who would be Ukraine and who would be Belarius when we went up the MegaCrag. Legends of the Hidden Temple had us arguing over if the Aztecs' pyramids were any cooler than the Egyptian's. Nowadays, children's programming teaches us that we can talk half Spanish and half English, that's perfectly acceptable when you're trying to get a loan or apply for a job. Or we could watch SpongeBob and have our kids squirting each other in the eye with ketchup packets going "HYAHAHAHAHA! Now the ketchup monster won't get you!"

I remember thinking this was going to be epic. And was just kind of let down at the end.

Spongebob is hilarious to watch while drunk or stoned.
