Opposite day was such a big thing in the 2000s. When I was in elementary school, someone would occasionally just declare it was opposite day and everyone tried to either do the genuine opposite of what was normal or make up some random thing that was allegedly the opposite of the norm.
What I noticed is that the Pomp and Circmumstance music used during the speech was different from what I remembered, but it's also fitting to change to a different track when he's about to say "HALL MONITOR!"
Hillenburg was such a legend. Evidently, his style is difficult to replicate. But before he passed, he left us with some of the most iconic cartoon episodes ever made.
@@TheAutisticCapricorn811 hell yeah! last year i watched the scene in the lost episode where they bury spongebobs pants & it actually made me cry :’( its a hell of a lot sadder now that hes gone
That headline was a dig at Nickelodeon execs who were always trying to turn SpongeBob into a kid who went to school. The creators hated that idea. The “boating school” scenes were the awkward compromise they worked out.
One thing I really appreciate about the first seasons of SpongeBob is that they don’t rely on gross out humor. Like, if Squeaky Boots was a Season 5-7 episode, you know that hilarious scene of Krabs breaking his legs while trying to shut his window would either have some nasty sound play and/or be animated in excruciating detail.
you think they'd add more of those insanely detailed close up shots like they had in older seasons too?? i know those always freaked out or grossed out a ton of kids, and with ick humor being so excessive in newer seasons, i think they'd take that element way too far if they remade any old episodes.
Sandy: I’ll give him a week Squidward: I’ll give him 11 minutes 11 minutes is the run time of the episodes lol I just realized that and seen that episode a million times
After working in fast food for a year the jokes at the Krusty Krab are way funnier than when I was a kid. The episode "Pickles" is shockingly accurate to what it's like working in fast food. From indecisive customers who take forever, people who order oddly specific things to even the cashier (Squidward) being thrown off by being told to make food. I could list all the jokes in the store from that episode and think of a personal anecdote that relates. The writing for the Krusty Krab based episodes in the early seasons were so well thought out.
It never registered to me that the 'EEEEEEVIIIILL' thing was supposed to be PTSD. Now I want to know what messed him up so bad that he became terrified of the 'evil' he used to fight without hesitation. :0
I think the reason why Jellyfish Jam had such a unique style was because it was the first episode to incorporate some elements of digital animation. Before the entire series became inked and painted digitally.
Y'know, listening to the rundown of Squeaky Boots made me realize something about the episode I never did as a kid. It's basically a Spongebob version of the Edgar Allan Poe story, the Tell-Tale Heart. Specifically Mr. Krabs's freakout at the end, it's just like the climax of that poem, right down to the subject of the main character's overwhelming to the point of hallucination guilt being hidden under the floorboards.
Good thing I Ctrl-F the comment section to make sure I didn't repeat what someone already said: I wish more would realize the amount of literary and classic movie references the Sponge Bob team put into the show. It's actually quite the work of art.
Peak SpongeBob characterization is when he's a good goofball who wants to do good and help people, but also can totally cause trouble by accident and literally destroy half the city.
Semi-related but funny thing is that under your comment is another comment that says they loved Bikini Bottom in season 1 because it feels like a village so now I don’t know WHO to believe!
The fact that so many of the episodes that come to mind when I think about Spongebob are from season one is utterly crazy. This isn't just the best season of this show, it's one of the best seasons of TV. It's really, really good.
The animation style from these season was pure gem. I wish the animators and producers stop trying to fix what's not broken. Now we have SpongeBob and Patrick who make faces every 5 seconds, speak gibberish and the episodes are mostly about how to ruin Squidward's day or some stupid things going on in Krusty Krab.

One of my favorite things about ‘squeaky boots’ that I didn’t hear you mention is how it’s a child version of Edgar Allen Poe’s “telltale heart”. In the short story, s man is driven crazy by the sound of another man’s heartbeat and decides to permanently stop it, but he continues to hear it despite the man’s body being stuffed under the floorboards. A cop comes looking for the man in the floorboards and the other man breaks from the guilt and self snitched
God, there was so many iconic episodes from Season 1, so much nostalgia. So, the Moon episode; I remember reading a book based on that episode and I remember that they added a part to the ending where Spongebob opened the hatch to confront the citizens of Bikini Bottom. Can't wait for the next part!
You gotta admit, we weren't just hyped for the release of the second Spongebob season as kids, they really got us hooked with with that Spongebob Second Season song.

For the talent show episode, putting on community events is actually pretty standard for small businesses. It's simply just a way to get people in the door, hoping that they'll buy something while they're there, or to cultivate regular customers. No way you'll see a corporation do something like that, but local shops totally do

Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't some episodes that show them when they were young, like one where they explained how they got the powers, and a shorter one when they showed how they fought an evil book club team or something. Talking about season 6-8
Shawn, I've been struggling a lot this week as I prepare for an upcoming surgery and had an allergic reaction from a spider bite yesterday lol. I'm soooo happy to see you posted this bc part 1 has given me such comfort 🥲 I'll def have your Hey Arnold and SB videos on repeat while I recover. If you see this, THANKS 🥰🙏🫂 with love from Austin TX 💕 PS turning on notifications so I don't miss another upload!
No matter how upset I am, the right episode of SpongeBob can always cheer me up. SpongeBob is the greatest show ever made. May Stephen Hillenberg Rest In Peace. He gave us one of the greatest gifts mankind has ever received. You did a great job with this trip down nostalgia lane.
So glad to hear you'll be doing more of these, I really loved the first part and I'm thoroughly enjoying this one as well - S1 is my favourite too because I find it so cozy and charming! :)
Boy oh boy do I like playing the clarinet. I practice and practice all day long but I never get any better. May be the funniest line from the entire show.
The fun thing about anytime there was a superhero thing in any of the SpongeBob episodes the music was from NFL films. The theme song for Mermaid Man was called The Hitmen" but all of the music was on a CD called "The Power and the Glory" by NFL FIlms. Other songs used would include West Side Rumble and Life on the Wild Side. The first season of SpongeBob was really my sons last go around on the cartoon thing for a while but we watched it together and enjoyed it very much. Your videos are very good and each one is better than the last.
I’ve seen F.U.N. About 307 times and it took me watching this video to realize that Mr Krabs knew plankton was faking in the end NOT because plankton saw through his cardboard bait, but because the bait was REAL (and steaming) and then was replaced sneakily with cardboard, hence mr krabs telling the boy to reach into his back pocket 🥲
i don't remember most of the older episodes very well due to foggy memory from childhood trauma. i won't go too into depth on that, but the only big thing i remember is how much i loved old spongebob episodes. even iconic episodes like the one where jellyfish party in spongebob's house, i only remember that detail, not how they got there or how they got out. or how i remember that episode where gary has to take a bath and doesn't want to, but the only scene i remember is the subliminal messages part. with that being said, i LOVE these videos you've done sharing all the great things from the show's oldest and most iconic episodes. it refreshes my memory and helps me remember all the details i loved and laughed at as a kid, in an analytical, yet immersive, enjoyable way. you've got all my support, i'd love more nostalgia trip related content like this. :)
The fact that Squidward could prevent everything if he never told about the opposite day to SpongeBob, because before that, SpongeBob acted normal and caring as a good neighbor (dragging Squidward to his house to rest, thinking he's gone nuts). Overall almost all Squidward's acts back in the ol days led him to bad things. That's why it was more enjoyable back then
I always wondered why mermaidman and barnacleboy look so different in her tvshow. I never understand that this is supposed to be a old show spongebob and patrick watch, and they are now really old. For real i understood that when someone explains to me a few years ago xD
It's very sad when a show peaks in season 1 because you know that everything after isn't gonna match it. Edit: I want to clarify I like most of SpongeBob, basically anything that's not seasons 6-8 (and even those seasons have good episodes). But I agree the aesthetics and ambience of season 1 is completely unmatched.
Season one has an unmatched aesthetic through everything. Jokes are great, animation is unique, and overall the entire season keeps its theme so perfectly. Seasons 2-3 have incredible jokes, but didn’t keep to its roots as well as they should’ve. Everything after that is basically garbage😭
I agree with you about Opposite Day. It has always been one of my favorites. Spongebob's Squidward impersonations in this and other episodes are always a great laugh.
Funny enough Culture Shock I think is my favorite Season 1 Episode, the dark colors are so cozy, and has such killer jokes for me. How can one hate the Incomparable Squidward?
personally season 3 is my favorite season as it really has the best humor and has most of the best episodes. but all your points are very valid and i fully understand liking season 1 the best.
Honestly I agree. Season 3 has always been my favorite. Everytime I try to tell myself I like season 2 the best I feel like I'm lying to myself. Lol I will say that Season 1 is my 2nd favorite with Season 2 being 3rd. So my ranking is: 1. Season 3 2. Season 1 3. Season 2
In my opinion from 1-10 seaons all episodes added 1-3 10 all around 4-5- like 7 out of 10 6-10 like 3-5 out of 10 each season very couple of episodes I found decent 11-12 maybe like 6 or 7 out of 10 hope not to argue with anyone just sharing my view as a spingebob fan from the beginning from where i felt it has come to
I need a friend who enjoys spongebob as much as I do. Thank you Stephen Hillenburg for writing the show that majorly built part of my perspective on life ❤️❤️ A work of art.
Keep up the great work Shawn I have been waiting on this for a while. Also the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy Theme Song is Called The Lineman by Sam Spence (who did NFL Films music) oddly enough that song was never used in a NFL Films show or special
As a kid the line "SpongeBob the aliens would like a word with you" just put me off and made me sad and I'm not sure why. Even now as an adult, I 'm getting the same "I don't like this party mom, please come pick me up!" feeling when I hear it. Anyone else have the same feeling?
Yes, exactly, only it give me more of a feeling or dread instead of sadness, it used to scare me so mulch as a kid, and just hearing it again now made that feeling come back.
same! it reminds me when i was young and my mom would get angry at me in public and say something like that to lead me away and scold me. very dreadful
It's said like we "aliens" would like a word with you, as he and Patrick assumed they were all aliens. As a kid it gives off a warning like in severe trouble@@about_to_leave_earth
Surprised he didn’t touch on the boots being a direct interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe’s “Tell-Tale Heart”. One of my favorite things about the episode
I was actually wondering what all of Bubble Bass's order meant since I sorta understood some of it now as an adult so I'm glad you broke it down how you did
that part in Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy 1 where MM says "I now pronounce you man and wife" followed by the "what is going on in here?" "You may kiss the bride" STILL makes me laugh to this day!
Hearing you talk about culture shock really reminded me of the state of the Krusty Krab earlier on. It wasn't always this mega-successful restaurant with people always in it
Hell it only seemed to pick up as much business as it did because SpongeBob is legitimately good at his job, and they were floundering (ha) when he wasn't there, though it seems they had a good enough reputation prior to his employment that made him want to work there. That or it's just supposed to be a joke about SpongeBob's strange worldview where being a fry cook is the greatest job one could ever have.
Spongebob taught me alot about America without ever visiting it.I don't know what my favouiture season is but season 1-4 and the first movie was fun. I guess the mermaidman and barnacle boy episodes are some of my most fave but it took me AGES to realise they're a parody of 60's batman even the theme XD just love it :) 17.7.23
SpongeBob brought my childhood so much happiness anybody who grew up watching it like us can quote SpongeBob and we know it right off the bat, and you're so right just like you said when I was young SpongeBob was on so often all the time and honestly he was annoying to me, but now i grew up went back and watched them episodes I was crying laughing , when I was young I didn't get any of the sarcasm, which made me realize so much of my humor that I have till this day is built around SpongeBob
One thing I've always loved about Spongebob, especially the early seasons, is his relationship with Mr. Krabs. Apart from a select few instances like Krabs selling Sponge's soul for 62 cents it really feels like he cares about SpongeBob and tries to help him out whenever he's down in the dumps or having trouble with something and almost seems like he sees Spongebob as a sort of son to him
56:22 That's not just a jellyfish net. That's Ol' reliable Also, the jar that Patrick wants to keep SpongeBob in is the mayonnaise jar he also gave him.
Squidward says “11 minutes” a lot like “I’ll give it 11 min” or “why must every 11 min of my life be…” etc and I always thought that was so weirdly and hilariously specific as a kid and then I thought about it and realized it’s because the episodes are 11 min long so whatever’s going on will be resolved in 11 min 🤣🤣😅😅 …clever
i have such vivid visual memory of the moon rocks episode specifically bc i had a spongebob coloring book as a kid, that basically would take frames from episodes and take out the color so you could color in instead. i Know that book had other episodes in it, but i just so vividly remember the space ones
I had the same book! But the episode that I colored the most was the “driving school” one where SpongeBob crashes Mrs. Puff into the school. Good memories.
I remember absolutely LOSING IT when squidward started his weird dance sequence in culture shock, the first time I saw it as a kid. And the guy’s “what the??” Made it even better.
True sorta the same for nosferatu from Graveyard shift he's been in 2 episodes breifly in season 12 and 1 currently on season 13 he got his own full episode called squidferatu where spongebob and squidward visit his house it s considered the lowest rating episode thpugh however I found it ok
Hall Monitor means a lot to me. It was the very first spongebob episode both little me and my mom watched EVER. It's a core memory for me, and I remember losing it when Patrick kept screaming "WEEWOOWEEWOO!!!"
Opposite day was such a big thing in the 2000s. When I was in elementary school, someone would occasionally just declare it was opposite day and everyone tried to either do the genuine opposite of what was normal or make up some random thing that was allegedly the opposite of the norm.

In my 30s now, and having been a caregiver for the silent generation, I understand it all the more. It’s both real and still funny
Also, notice how Barnacle Boy wasn't bothered by that. Certain people might be more prone to PTSD due to genetic/environmental differences.
The PTSD could have also been combined with Mermaid-Man's advanced age.
“He’s just standing there-menacingly!”
Is one of my favorite Patrick lines alongside “Is mayonnaise an instrument?”
23:00 that scene I quote all the time. "More seaweed medley dear?" I don't know why I just love it.

U is for uranium, bombs
N is for no survivors, when you're...
Classic scene
I quote “U is uranium…BOMBS” randomly to this day 😂
49:00 i love the “Tell Tale Heart” reference and the imagery it’s just 👐 beautiful
Those pickles caused a severe mental breakdown
Shawn, I've been struggling a lot this week as I prepare for an upcoming surgery and had an allergic reaction from a spider bite yesterday lol. I'm soooo happy to see you posted this bc part 1 has given me such comfort 🥲 I'll def have your Hey Arnold and SB videos on repeat while I recover. If you see this, THANKS 🥰🙏🫂 with love from Austin TX 💕
PS turning on notifications so I don't miss another upload!
What kind of spider? I hate spiders soooo much
Hey man I know I'm late but I really hope your surgery went well😊💪🏼
@@sebicmiel4221 omg thank you so much! 💓 all healed up now 🙌
@Kelsey 23 a wolf spider! They are actually good bc they eat other pest bugs and apparently others don't react as badly to their bites as me lol
No matter how upset I am, the right episode of SpongeBob can always cheer me up. SpongeBob is the greatest show ever made. May Stephen Hillenberg Rest In Peace. He gave us one of the greatest gifts mankind has ever received. You did a great job with this trip down nostalgia lane.
I love how bubble bass just tosses squidward around multiple times
So glad to hear you'll be doing more of these, I really loved the first part and I'm thoroughly enjoying this one as well - S1 is my favourite too because I find it so cozy and charming! :)
Jellyfish jam is one of my favorite episodes,,, both songs are 🔥🔥🔥
Boy oh boy do I like playing the clarinet. I practice and practice all day long but I never get any better. May be the funniest line from the entire show.
This has made me re dive into the first 8 seasons of SpongeBob, thank you
i’m slowly watching all the seasons including the movies and i’m on season 5 now
That picture of the massive burger made me immediately think of Shaggy & Scooby-Doo they'd be so happy🤣
The fun thing about anytime there was a superhero thing in any of the SpongeBob episodes the music was from NFL films. The theme song for Mermaid Man was called The Hitmen" but all of the music was on a CD called "The Power and the Glory" by NFL FIlms. Other songs used would include West Side Rumble and Life on the Wild Side. The first season of SpongeBob was really my sons last go around on the cartoon thing for a while but we watched it together and enjoyed it very much.
Your videos are very good and each one is better than the last.
Omg just realized this … fuck yaa 😊
I’ve seen F.U.N. About 307 times and it took me watching this video to realize that Mr Krabs knew plankton was faking in the end NOT because plankton saw through his cardboard bait, but because the bait was REAL (and steaming) and then was replaced sneakily with cardboard, hence mr krabs telling the boy to reach into his back pocket 🥲
i don't remember most of the older episodes very well due to foggy memory from childhood trauma. i won't go too into depth on that, but the only big thing i remember is how much i loved old spongebob episodes. even iconic episodes like the one where jellyfish party in spongebob's house, i only remember that detail, not how they got there or how they got out. or how i remember that episode where gary has to take a bath and doesn't want to, but the only scene i remember is the subliminal messages part.
with that being said, i LOVE these videos you've done sharing all the great things from the show's oldest and most iconic episodes. it refreshes my memory and helps me remember all the details i loved and laughed at as a kid, in an analytical, yet immersive, enjoyable way. you've got all my support, i'd love more nostalgia trip related content like this. :)
So the hilarious thing in the jellyfish episode about Squidward saying he'll give him 11 minutes is that's the runtime of the episode
The fact that Squidward could prevent everything if he never told about the opposite day to SpongeBob, because before that, SpongeBob acted normal and caring as a good neighbor (dragging Squidward to his house to rest, thinking he's gone nuts). Overall almost all Squidward's acts back in the ol days led him to bad things. That's why it was more enjoyable back then
I always wondered why mermaidman and barnacleboy look so different in her tvshow. I never understand that this is supposed to be a old show spongebob and patrick watch, and they are now really old.
For real i understood that when someone explains to me a few years ago xD
It's really sweet when SpongeBob tells Squidward "you need bed rest, I'll keep you safe until you're well again" ☺️
Really enjoy your content, thanks for all the amazing videos!! The nostalgia is great, especially with SpongeBob. Keep up the great work 🤗
Thank you so much for watching, Brittany 😊
I really appreciate your support!
It's very sad when a show peaks in season 1 because you know that everything after isn't gonna match it.
Edit: I want to clarify I like most of SpongeBob, basically anything that's not seasons 6-8 (and even those seasons have good episodes). But I agree the aesthetics and ambience of season 1 is completely unmatched.
Seasons 2-3 are just as good. But Season 1 is by far the most well rounded season
Season one has an unmatched aesthetic through everything. Jokes are great, animation is unique, and overall the entire season keeps its theme so perfectly. Seasons 2-3 have incredible jokes, but didn’t keep to its roots as well as they should’ve. Everything after that is basically garbage😭
It's a shame that Spongebob turned in a shell of what it was.
I agree with you about Opposite Day. It has always been one of my favorites. Spongebob's Squidward impersonations in this and other episodes are always a great laugh.
Funny enough Culture Shock I think is my favorite Season 1 Episode, the dark colors are so cozy, and has such killer jokes for me.
How can one hate the Incomparable Squidward?
Culture shock is great. “What the” never gets old lmao
Barnacle boys voice is perfect 😂
"You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become Squidward."
The main reason squeaky boots was iconic for me was as i got older, i realized it was a kids version of the tell tale heart
personally season 3 is my favorite season as it really has the best humor and has most of the best episodes. but all your points are very valid and i fully understand liking season 1 the best.
Honestly I agree. Season 3 has always been my favorite. Everytime I try to tell myself I like season 2 the best I feel like I'm lying to myself. Lol
I will say that Season 1 is my 2nd favorite with Season 2 being 3rd.
So my ranking is:
1. Season 3
2. Season 1
3. Season 2
id go
3. 1
2. 2
1. 3
and my 4th favorite suprising probably everyone is season 5
Season 2 is probably the best in my opinion. Every episode is a certified classic
Season 3 is the best season of SpongeBob
@@animeboy7082 I think it’s pretty much tied with season 2 all things considered but I like season 2 more
In my opinion from 1-10 seaons all episodes added
1-3 10 all around
4-5- like 7 out of 10
6-10 like 3-5 out of 10 each season very couple of episodes I found decent
11-12 maybe like 6 or 7 out of 10
hope not to argue with anyone just sharing my view as a spingebob fan from the beginning from where i felt it has come to
I need a friend who enjoys spongebob as much as I do. Thank you Stephen Hillenburg for writing the show that majorly built part of my perspective on life ❤️❤️ A work of art.
Bro I didn’t know that all these episodes were season one. I always thought they were from different seasons.
Keep up the great work Shawn I have been waiting on this for a while. Also the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy Theme Song is Called The Lineman by Sam Spence (who did NFL Films music) oddly enough that song was never used in a NFL Films show or special
Hall monitors “wee woo sequence” as I’ll call it ( 25:26 - 26:27 )is such a well written and hilarious scene 😂
totally agreed og spongebob just has this cozy vibe
The way SpongeBob was somehow able to memorize Bubble Bass’s order will never not impress me. How does he even do that? 😂
He speaks short order jargon.
I wonder if Patrick ever learned to properly play that jar of mayonnaise.
I feel the same about animated food. I'm incredibly jealous that I can't eat those foods.
As a kid the line "SpongeBob the aliens would like a word with you" just put me off and made me sad and I'm not sure why. Even now as an adult, I 'm getting the same "I don't like this party mom, please come pick me up!" feeling when I hear it. Anyone else have the same feeling?
Yes, exactly, only it give me more of a feeling or dread instead of sadness, it used to scare me so mulch as a kid, and just hearing it again now made that feeling come back.
same! it reminds me when i was young and my mom would get angry at me in public and say something like that to lead me away and scold me. very dreadful
It actually made me confused because I didn't understand if they were real aliens or the creatures on the rocket
It's said like we "aliens" would like a word with you, as he and Patrick assumed they were all aliens. As a kid it gives off a warning like in severe trouble@@about_to_leave_earth
Surprised he didn’t touch on the boots being a direct interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe’s “Tell-Tale Heart”. One of my favorite things about the episode
I was actually wondering what all of Bubble Bass's order meant since I sorta understood some of it now as an adult so I'm glad you broke it down how you did
Reflecto is a Hell of a Villian
Wow, literally every season one episode was iconic. They just didn't miss!
that part in Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy 1 where MM says "I now pronounce you man and wife" followed by the "what is going on in here?" "You may kiss the bride" STILL makes me laugh to this day!
Hearing you talk about culture shock really reminded me of the state of the Krusty Krab earlier on. It wasn't always this mega-successful restaurant with people always in it
Hell it only seemed to pick up as much business as it did because SpongeBob is legitimately good at his job, and they were floundering (ha) when he wasn't there, though it seems they had a good enough reputation prior to his employment that made him want to work there. That or it's just supposed to be a joke about SpongeBob's strange worldview where being a fry cook is the greatest job one could ever have.
Spongebob taught me alot about America without ever visiting it.I don't know what my favouiture season is but season 1-4 and the first movie was fun. I guess the mermaidman and barnacle boy episodes are some of my most fave but it took me AGES to realise they're a parody of 60's batman even the theme XD just love it :)
17.7.23
It's insane how rewatchable the early seasons are. I've been falling asleep to SpongeBob for years.
Squidward: how does it feel to be the most hated in bikini bottom plankton..hurt doesn’t it .. I KNOW LMAOO😂😂🤣🤣🤣
SpongeBob brought my childhood so much happiness anybody who grew up watching it like us can quote SpongeBob and we know it right off the bat, and you're so right just like you said when I was young SpongeBob was on so often all the time and honestly he was annoying to me, but now i grew up went back and watched them episodes I was crying laughing , when I was young I didn't get any of the sarcasm, which made me realize so much of my humor that I have till this day is built around SpongeBob
I still use “crustaceous cheapskate” as an insult when talking to my friends, that’s just such a great line and delivery by Tom Kenny
One thing I've always loved about Spongebob, especially the early seasons, is his relationship with Mr. Krabs. Apart from a select few instances like Krabs selling Sponge's soul for 62 cents it really feels like he cares about SpongeBob and tries to help him out whenever he's down in the dumps or having trouble with something and almost seems like he sees Spongebob as a sort of son to him
56:22 That's not just a jellyfish net.
That's Ol' reliable
Also, the jar that Patrick wants to keep SpongeBob in is the mayonnaise jar he also gave him.
Squidward says “11 minutes” a lot like “I’ll give it 11 min” or “why must every 11 min of my life be…” etc and I always thought that was so weirdly and hilariously specific as a kid and then I thought about it and realized it’s because the episodes are 11 min long so whatever’s going on will be resolved in 11 min 🤣🤣😅😅 …clever
The exchange between SpongeBob and Plankton at the end of F.U.N sounded like a soap opera “how long what?”
If Jellyfish are basically animals, and Spongebob wanted to be a Jellyfish, does that make him a furry
55:08 Squidward says I’ll give him 11 minutes because the episode is 11 minutes long get it?
With the alien episode, i thinks its funny patrick has the nerve to join in and say the aliens would like to have a word with you.
The writing, the cozy vibe, the animation style, everything was perfect. Even up to season 3. Then it all changed 😤
1:22:22
Bro really squished him with his CHEEKS.. that's crazy.. 😭
i have such vivid visual memory of the moon rocks episode specifically bc i had a spongebob coloring book as a kid, that basically would take frames from episodes and take out the color so you could color in instead. i Know that book had other episodes in it, but i just so vividly remember the space ones
I had the same book! But the episode that I colored the most was the “driving school” one where SpongeBob crashes Mrs. Puff into the school. Good memories.
It would be so nice for you to do the 2nd and 3rd season recap ^^ loved this mini series on the 1st season!
Bubble Bass became a recurring character as season 9b
I remember absolutely LOSING IT when squidward started his weird dance sequence in culture shock, the first time I saw it as a kid. And the guy’s “what the??” Made it even better.
Bubble Bass returned for a cameo in season 8 and then during late season 9 and onwards he started to become almost like a main side character.
True sorta the same for nosferatu from Graveyard shift he's been in 2 episodes breifly in season 12 and 1 currently on season 13 he got his own full episode called squidferatu where spongebob and squidward visit his house it s considered the lowest rating episode thpugh however I found it ok
Yes and they overdo it now imo
Hall Monitor means a lot to me. It was the very first spongebob episode both little me and my mom watched EVER. It's a core memory for me, and I remember losing it when Patrick kept screaming "WEEWOOWEEWOO!!!"
2:16 that shot is quite.. revealing
I would like to thank everyone who participated in this, this is truly the best work I have seen on UA-cam, HELLO CUSTOMERS! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Dude🤣🤣 until now ive never noticed patrick playing with the device he pulled from behind his back before examining squidward
