Line 123:
* ''[[Beetlejuice (animation)|Beetlejuice]]'' in his cartoon was especially filthy.
* ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''
** Patrick Star had a few traits of this, though they only become emphasized in later seasons. The worst was likely "The Ballad of Filthy Muck"; when SpongeBob asks him when the last time he bathed, Patrick couldn't remember that far back. He finally does decide to bathe after figuring out he'd likely never be allowed into the Krusty Krab again.
** In "The Battle of Bikini Bottom", this becomes a [[Compressed Vice]] and a motive for Patrick Star to pick up the [[Conflict Ball]] and turn against the suddenly scrupulous neat freak Spongebob, as they then waged a war of cleanliness vs. filth for 11 minutes.
*** They do a good job of implying that this isn't new, though; in one scene Spongebob removes Patrick's "jacket", only to discover that what has appeared to be his skin ever since the show started is actually ''a uniform layer of caked-on filth half an inch thick''. For Spongebob's part, well, he's an ambulatory kitchen sponge, what did you expect?
