"Pizza Delivery" is a SpongeBob SquarePants episode from season 1. In this episode, SpongeBob and Squidward deliver a pizza. Series creator Stephen Hillenburg's original idea for the series pitch was that the writers would write a storyboard for a possible episode and pitch it to Nickelodeon.[3] Hillenburg wanted to write an episode with SpongeBob and Squidward on a road trip, inspired by the 1989 film Powwow Highway.[3] Derek Drymon said, "It's a road trip movie starring Gary Farmer, who is an innocent, kid-like character who is traveling with a curmudgeon."[3] Eventually, the idea developed while they were working on it, but Hillenburg gave up the idea for the initial pitch.[3] This idea was later scrapped into the season 12 episode, "Pineapple RV." Instead, they used another idea for the pitch which was in the series pilot episode called "Help Wanted."[3] Writers Aaron Springer and Sherm Cohen resurrected the road trip idea during the first season and used a lot of the ideas for this episode.
