This is a list of episodes in the ninth season of the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants.
This season marks the show's transition to HD (high definition) by now having episodes produced in a widescreen aspect ratio of 16:9.
Notably, it is the longest-running season of the show, spanning over the course of over 5 years, also making it the longest-running season of any Nicktoon, and of any notable American cartoon. The biggest reason for this is because the season halted production midway through (between SpongeBob You're Fired and Lost in Bikini Bottom) to complete production on The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. As a result, Season 10, which was originally intended to premiere in 2014, was delayed to 2016.
