SpongeBob SquarePants is a TV show that is also self reflexive. In Seinfeld an example of self reflexivity is in the showed in "The Pitch" when Jerry and George are talking about producing a television show about nothing. In the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants, is about his daily life. In the episode "Frankendoodle" SpongeBob finds a real life pencil at the bottom of the ocean from a Frenchman who dropped it. When SpongeBob found the actual pencil in his cartoon world he began to use it to draw and erase things in his cartoonish surroundings. This example reflects on the fact that cartoon characters are obviously drawn with pencils. SpongeBob takes advantage of the fact that this is a real pencil and he and that he and his entire world are drawings and that he can mold his own drawings to how he pleases. For example he draws another version of himself who turns evil and steals the pencil from the real SpongeBob and tries to erase him, because he is nothing but a drawing. The cleverness behind this whole episode is that SpongeBob takes note of the fact that he is just a drawing.
