I think you should definitely give season 2 the exact same treatment as you did for season 1. Seasons 1-3 is the quintessential classic SpongeBob era and going through season 1 with your commentary gave me a good nostalgia trip
Absolutely! I could watch these videos for every season, honestly. I'm here having a marathon with his SpongeBob season 1 episodes... Currently watching the 3rd part. 😌 It's crazy, I remember when literally Every episode of season 1 aired! I was 7 to 8 years old when season 1 episodes were premiering.
It's all over TikTok, is it not? That episode only ever aired once a year, just as the Valentine's Day episode which could explain the lack of appreciation; I hadn't even remembered the line myself and I was about 8 at the time and very much a Bob lover.
I personally think sandy did too, shes the only one who doesnt start armpit farting after spongebob said that was his "secret", and it seemed like she was signing him up just to expose his lie. She's way too smart to fall for spongebobs shenanigans in that episode. Or at least she had doubts
The musical thing you're talking about is called a leitmotif they're used to denote a specific character, place, situation, etc. they're very common in movies and television
Exactly. I love seasons 1-3. Parts of four, but yeah... ...also, the planetarium joke flew right over my head as a kid until I realized Spongebob was a fry cook and she was worried about zits all over her face from the grease - the fun of being a teenager. Also, yes. *cheers* Season 2!
Glad I'm not the only person who likes season 4 I mean obviously the first 3 are better but I still feel like 4 is apart of the golden Era like family guy season 4.
i'll be honest there's something kind of heartwarming about episodes where pearl and spongebob hang out and get along, i know there are others later down the line that Aren't the chaperone and to my memory, they've never done anything creepy with the duo like romance wise? so instead it kind of feels more like spongebob is pearl's older brother or cousin, given how much he looks up to and loves mr krabs. i also like them hanging out bc it feels like they have a similar "kiddie" dynamic to the one that spongebob and patrick have, but instead of it being bc patrick is just. kinda dumb, it's because pearl really Is a kid. with the two of them it still feels like they share this optimistic naive childlike excitability, but without having to lower the pairs' intelligence to find that commonground
Kids watching the show now: "A... what? :/ " Edit: Not joking. My nephew watched old episodes when I visited my brother and I said "Oh, I remember these. I used to tape the show on VHS and watch them over and over :) " He looked at me like I was explaining how we used to hunt dinosaurs "back in my day" :( Darn kids...
@@sauce8545 Did a small edit because at first I thought (because it felt like) he looked at me as if I was a dinosaur. In hindsight now looking back at it I understand I was telling a "back in my day"-story :( Adulthood sucks...
@Vollification yeah lol these kids don't give 2 shts. I used to love my family's back in my day stories and looking things up after they tell me abt them
The Suds ep really stuck with me cuz, I watched this episode as a kid and actually believed that if you leave your fridge open your house would freeze and you'll get the suds. So, I was scared of leaving the fridge open XD I still quote this episode saying "shut the fridge cuz, you're gonna get the suds" if someone leaves it open
PLEEEEASE do Season 2, these videos are so relaxing and nostalgic, S1 is my favourite season but I would really really love to hear your overviews of all the Pre-Movie seasons (it will take time, and if you don't do it then I understand because its a huge request, but I love your videos and Spongebob so the more the merrier as a viewer)!
SB-129 is hands down my favorite episode of the series. I only saw a handful of episodes in my childhood, but that episode always stuck with me for how surreal it is, which probably awakened my facinating of such entertainment.
I always loved how I’m the beginning of sleepy time SpongeBob tells Gary “mind your wandering eye you little mollusk” since the entire entirety of SpongeBob was inspired by the album and the title track of Ween’s the mollusk and that’s a paraphrasing of the weird ass lyrics of the song
They are taking baths and are crying under water. Looking for logic in this show is like trying to place a square peg on a dartboard to score a yatzy. Logic is just not a thing in this show and the show makes that perfectly clear in the very first season :p
I remember as a kid. The scariest part in SB-129 for me was actually the look of the time machine. It's like my first experience with the backrooms. Just doesn't look right
Various media tends to imply that Gary is relatively intelligent by the standards of the series’s cast, with SpongeBob able to hold full conversations with the snail despite the latter only being able to meow. A cute bonus from the dream episode is that when the SpongeBob and Gary warn each other not to get too curious, they each address the other by the proper phylum that the character belongs to (poriferan and mollusk respectively).
there's a really great gag playing off of that in the new game, cosmic shake. Squidward is stuck talking like a caveman and patrick suggests they get Gary's help teaching him how to speak again because he's so eloquent. it subverts the usual "patrick says something obviously dumb" shtick by immediately having him turn out to be entirely right. I like how it accomplishes being subversive and unexpected while still falling in line with gary's character the entire time. there's some surprisingly good writing in cosmic shake :)
Even though my favorite season is 2 for how strong the comedic writing and concepts were at that point, 1 wasn't afraid to throw every great creative idea the team had at the wall and somehow, everything stuck.
I really enjoy SpongeBob's casual experience of injury in early episodes, he's a sponge so it's true to nature as its been studied, but its really very nice for a main character in slapstick comedy to be less resilient than absurdly so.
Weird to think, but I think the anchor arms episode had a profound impact on my ideas of fitness as I grew older. I grew up aware of the fact that aesthetic muscles may look good, but being strong is more valuable than looking strong, which resulted in me having a healthier relationship with the mirror when I was in high school. OG SpongeBob had some great morals to share.
Yeah that's true the anchor arms and Sandy just seem to be a size vs power thing given how gigantic the anchor arms can get but in the end strength wins more than size
Its preference. Some people like to build their muscles. It’s not mutually exclusive at all either. Nothing wrong with preferring strength or size training. But people who just do strength training frequently crap on training for aesthetics.
Scaredy Pants was my very first Spongebob episode back in 2000-2001. I also have a memory of a lengthy period of time when Nickelodeon never aired SB-129 and Karate Choppers, and I thought it was a miracle when they came back.
Season one just bangs differently, I feel that way with nearly every show. First seasons are the most important I believe, have best jokes mixed with usually worse audio and graphics, which I actually like.
Please do season 2! Although, we all know how much work that will be, and nobody wants you to get burnt out! Please do give it a chance though, if you’d like, because these walks down memory lane are incredibly enjoyable to us viewers, and hopefully, to you as well!
After watching all those YTPs years ago, I always expect some SpongeBob episodes to go off the wall or random whenever I watch them. Also, I personally like SB-129, it was really interesting to see Squidward travel through time and visit the Alone void. Kinda trippy and unique, gives off that Backrooms vibe.
I know, I was expecting there to be dolphin noises over Squidward yelling through his clarinet in sb-129 even though Sailor Mouth didn’t even happen before that episode
1:26:30 - "Mind your wandering eye, you little mollusk" reference to the Ween song, The Mollusk. The album, with the same title, was apparently an inspiration for Stephen Hillenberg in creating Spongebob, which is why Ween was featured in Spongebob (Loop-de-loop, the song Spongebob ties his shoes in, and the beloved Ocean Man)
I actually like to image that in the Chaperone episode that it was indeed SpongeBob at the prom but he actually used the dummy to avoid the kiss from Pearl, you notice how when the dummy is in the frame it has a static facial expression? Yeah that's why I have this theory for what actually happened, but who knows, this episode's ending always confuses me too lmao
The chair-thingy that Squidward is being carried on is called a Litter. It is a form of human-powered vehicle(or in this case fish-powered). You also get them as bigger rooms. It is used to carry important people.
19:23 my gf and I quote that “you’re bald??” “No I’m not BALD. I’m aliiiive.” all the time, even moreso after I went through chemo lmao. So many memes and quotable moments from the early seasons.
@@XXXXX8 Of course I'm not stupid Sherlock I know what it is called, I was making a joke false advertising within a cartoon is rare and comparing it to influencers like on IG with their products etc. damn stop being so literal.
I was in my 40’s before I discovered SpongeBob. It was a show I could watch with my daughter and enjoy. I would even watch episodes by myself. It’s one of the best cartoons that both children and adults can enjoy.
I never understood why but Suds was always my favorite episode growing up. It might have something to do with me being sick all the time when I was younger, but even then I still don’t know why.
Great video. Do the second and third season. Pretty much do everything up to and including the movie if you can. I think the movie would be interesting for you to dissect as the dividing line of SpongeBob eras
Basically there was a French painter by the name of Toulouse-Lautrec. And the image was a parody of one of his pieces, just with fish instead of human dancers
I've been watching SpongeBob lately with my daughter, and so far, we only watch episodes from the first two seasons, but man every classic goated episode is in season 1-3.
YES I WAS SO EXCITED WHEN I SAW THAT YOU UPDATED THIS I USED TO WATCH SPONGEBOB ALL THE TIME AS A KID AND THESE VIDEOS BRING ME BACK TO MY CHILDHOOD THANK YOU 😭 🙏
I was a teenager during this (the “future” episode) and the chrome made me laugh because with Y2K, a lot of the collectibles that were made were very chrome-ish. To me that line was a joke about that.
I'm in my mid 20s now, but I still think some things shown here are hillarious. Like when they think squidward is dying so they put him in the sun to warm him up. I just broke out with laughter and now my stomach hurts lol.
Oh! Motifs/Leitmotifs! That's when music is used to represent certain characters and places. Very common, almost required in media. Sideways isna good channel to learn about them
A massive example of Leitmotifs being used is the 6-movie saga of Star Wars. The music alone can foreshadow entire events in the movies if you know who/what each song is connected to.
I think the small handful of truly up to date SpongeBob memes are the plankton roasting many generations, and the “look at the time, it’s high noon” plankton line. Idk other ones but most are def from the first 3 seasons, so goated
7:44 In my personal theory, the reason why Sandy signed SpongeBob onto the anchor throwing contest is because she quickly figured out that SpongeBob was lying and she wanted to embarrass him
I always thought that the hairs are embedded intro the anchor arms in such a way that more pressure forces them out, like a very gross spaghetti machine. As for why it doesn’t happen to SpongeBob? Maybe it’s a different setting or he bought a cheaper, more limited version, since he doesn’t need to „impress the ladies“
The karate episode is actually a metaphor for sex, there are many hints in the episode. 1. SpongeBob says safety first as he puts on his helmet (condom) 2. he calls up sandy for a late night karate session 3. He won’t stop thinking about it at work and ends up getting in trouble for it 4. Sandy watching SpongeBob chop his salami really gets her in the mood for some karate 5. “Do you think mr. Krabs ever does karate” 6. They put on a late night live karate show at the krusty krab
Suds is easily my favorite episode of SpongeBob. SpongeBob reminds me of me where he will go to work even if sick. Plus, there are just so many entertaining moments.
“Everything is chrome in the future” is prolly a reference to the early 00s media trope of “the future” there was a metallic theme from the cars to the clothes. Think Zenon : Girl of the 21st Century. Or any rap song set in the “future”
53:55 I would also note that the Dutchman's design is meant to reflect the appearance of real-life pirate (and figure of folklore in his own right) Edward Teach, AKA Blackbeard, which adds an extra layer to his spookiness.
1:24:44 Oh in the karate school I go to, there are even drills where our last ditch effort on breaking out of an attack from the opponent is either pinching their thighs or armpits, or if you’re being tightly held onto from behind, you can massage their hands with your knuckles, or bang their hands with your knuckles. One time in the pinch drills, my karate partner accidentally pinched me too hard that I had a bruise on my arm… I did not notice it until I got home, and it really explained why it kept hurting the whole time after I got pinched
SB129 shaped me as a person i swear. i think it’s why i love psychological thrillers, shows like alfred hitchcock presents, the twilight zone, and why i have such a deep interest in time space and the nature of reality. seeing it as a kid i swear woke something up in me 😂
"Powerfully smart but trapped in a body unable to speak" is a thing that happens IRL with people. The most common example would be autistic people with verbal communication difficulties. There are notable examples of very brilliant autistic people who were just thought of as unintelligent because of that, until advances in understanding (and being lucky enough to be able to benefit from them) allowed them to communicate effectively with their allistic caregivers (spellcheck doesn't consider this a real word, which I think further hammers home the issue).
Here’s me theory on how the hair is grown on the last setting of ‘Anchor Arms’: think of the glove as a ballon with pattern and texture built into the skin, as the air is blown that pattern/texture is emphasized. The “hair” is really just inverted follicles of the glove that revert when enough air is blown in, causing the pressure to push the “hairs” out. Kinda like those pens you’d get at the book fair that look like little animals and when you squeeze them the eyes pop out.
But in all seriousness, these videos have been very enjoyable. Im shocked how I’ve retained memories from nearly every episode thus far!! Keep going until I figure out when my brain hit its max capacity!! Lmao
1:14:30 One possibility I've seen floated was that, combined with how the characters in the future are called "SpongeTRON" and "PaTRON" that that future is one where machines have taken command of the world, and optimize everything in their image. Doesn't fully connect to their treatment of Squidward, but maybe Spongetron is just as nice as Spongebob is...
did anyone notice that the calendar in the future says 4077? that would mean the year before squidward was frozen was 2077. that doesn't make sense to me but i thought i'd point that out.
Sleepy Time was definitely my favourite. I don't know if it made dreams my favourite little curiosity, or if it just happened to touch on something I already like so much. The night time mood contrasting with the dreams is also just so wonderful, in a way I'm not sure I can explain. And it's also special because it's a piece of media that takes me back to when I watched it, including how it feels to be that young, there's a sense of comfort and freshness that I think is just lost as you become an adult. But thankfully for me, something completely different and recent that was able to mimic the special feelings I get from this was Deltarune, however that's another thing where I'm not sure I can answer the why of it.
Fun fact, if Squidward was frozen in the freezer for 2,000 years, then it means he’s been frozen sense 2017, still frozen in 2024, and won’t be unfrozen until March 6th 4017 as the calendar in the background shows

That anchor scene though 9/10 Amazing Squidward the Unfriendly Ghost: Uh you're bald? 7/10 decent The Chaperone: Do the sponge guys, easily one of pearl's best 8/10 Great Employee of the Month: Spongebob and Squidward adventures will always be iconic in season 1-3 10/10 Fantastic Scaredy Pants: Not bad for halloween(but I suggest you a season 11 episode "The Legend of Boo-kini Bottom") 8/10 Great I was a Teenage Gary: If you Squidward in "Naughty Nautical Neighbors, and, Culture Shock", you'll despise him here WILL YOU CLAM UP 4/10 Bad SB-129: fun fact: this aired in Decemner 1999 Adore is not enough, remind me of Futurama FUTURE 11/10 Perfect Karate Choppers: Not the best Sandy episode(Tea at the treedome and Texas are better). I hated Mr Krabs so much here. But the rest is awesome. I hate all of you 8/10 Great Sleepy Time: What a dreamy episode, Shoot that was my last corner ..................................... 9/10 Amazing Suds: Never do this at home, I love the ending Oh yeah yeah the rabbitt 11/10 Perfect Amazing
This was and has been incredibly enjoyable to watch. I have a spongegar decal cause it’s just so good. I truly hope you find the time and get the numbers to continue making season 2
You know what's interesting, at the beginning of the series, Spongebob is supposed to be 14, so it's implied by the Junior Prom episode with Pearl that Spongebob Graduated early or the school system under the sea is different for every species.
yesss please do season 2 and 3!! these videos are so good and nostalgic and I love your passion for this show. btw the term you're looking for is "Leitmotif", it's used in pretty much all visual media. I actually think it was a good choice to use the lively, friendly sounding Krusty Krab theme when it's creepy and empty, it adds to the "off" feeling of the episode imo
I remember I was 9 years old and saw a sneak peak of the show called SpongeBob SquarePants and I instantly knew I didn’t want to miss the premiere. Once it came out I was hooked.

One thing I love about employee of the month is that SpongeBob is the antagonist, he started the beef, I wish there were more episodes like that

Everyone needs a friend like Sandy. They call out your bullshit. They keep you grounded. They're honest.
Yep Sandy is a true friend
The “I come for your pickle” line in the Halloween episode does not get enough appreciation
Steal your soul
It's all over TikTok, is it not? That episode only ever aired once a year, just as the Valentine's Day episode which could explain the lack of appreciation; I hadn't even remembered the line myself and I was about 8 at the time and very much a Bob lover.
The line itself is hilarious, but the monotone delivery that Squidward gives enhances it.
Something tells me the bartender in MuscleBob BuffPants knew EXACTLY what was up, and just decided to let it play out.
@AzureWolf168and then he took the glass when Sandy filled their participations lmao
I personally think sandy did too, shes the only one who doesnt start armpit farting after spongebob said that was his "secret", and it seemed like she was signing him up just to expose his lie. She's way too smart to fall for spongebobs shenanigans in that episode. Or at least she had doubts
So many amazing quotes in these early seasons. "Go ahead, get in" is always a go to. Along with "I'm ready I'm ready!" "No you ain't!"
The delivery on "I've come for your pickle" was fantastic. My gutter brain takes it to a darker place too hahaha.
😂
I just love it when the guy is beaning chased by an anchor it's so funny and dark but funny as hell when you see how it plays out.

1:42:10 For as cheap as Krabs is, you gotta give him one thing, at least he actually sends his employees home when they aren’t feeling well
Mr Krabs of newest seasons would made them work even in their sleep
1:01:05 Notice how Squiddy can walk on the Wall and Roof considering he has Tentacles, nice attention to detail!
My head cannon is that since Squidward is also a mollusk he grew a shell.
woah I never realised octopus were mollusks, this show still teaching me things lmao
we in the community call this atavism
I never understood why but Suds was always my favorite episode growing up. It might have something to do with me being sick all the time when I was younger, but even then I still don’t know why.
The real joke is they’re looking to put the ghost in the casket vs the body they thought they killed 😭
Great video. Do the second and third season. Pretty much do everything up to and including the movie if you can. I think the movie would be interesting for you to dissect as the dividing line of SpongeBob eras
I second this idea 💡
The episode I was a teenage Gary still just creeps me out to this date and just seeing that transformation just makes my heart beat like crazy
16:42 Can someone please explain that joke to me? That's always bugged me for over 2 decades.
Basically there was a French painter by the name of Toulouse-Lautrec. And the image was a parody of one of his pieces, just with fish instead of human dancers
In addition they played a pun with the word "too" and the beginning of Toulouse name
I've been watching SpongeBob lately with my daughter, and so far, we only watch episodes from the first two seasons, but man every classic goated episode is in season 1-3.
YES I WAS SO EXCITED WHEN I SAW THAT YOU UPDATED THIS I USED TO WATCH SPONGEBOB ALL THE TIME AS A KID AND THESE VIDEOS BRING ME BACK TO MY CHILDHOOD THANK YOU 😭 🙏
Absolutely you need to review season 2. There are many good episodes of SpongeBob, but I stand that seasons 1-3 are the golden age.
38:47 Squidward’s scream in the background when he’s stuck down that hole cracks me up everytime
“Deep throat his entire clarinet” 😂
I was a teenager during this (the “future” episode) and the chrome made me laugh because with Y2K, a lot of the collectibles that were made were very chrome-ish. To me that line was a joke about that.
I'm in my mid 20s now, but I still think some things shown here are hillarious. Like when they think squidward is dying so they put him in the sun to warm him up. I just broke out with laughter and now my stomach hurts lol.
You think a 7 inch crab is scary try a japanese spider carb
Those are fuckin nightmare fuel, some Darksouls shit
The line "are you on some new allergy medication boy" made me laugh so hard
Not gonna lie that bit in MuscleBob BuffPants with the Anchors chasing the Fish that measures the distance had me howling with laughter.
Maybe SpongeBob's pumpkin is one of those miniature pumpkin? It's about the same shape, and about the right size relative to a pineapple.
Oh! Motifs/Leitmotifs! That's when music is used to represent certain characters and places. Very common, almost required in media. Sideways isna good channel to learn about them
A massive example of Leitmotifs being used is the 6-movie saga of Star Wars. The music alone can foreshadow entire events in the movies if you know who/what each song is connected to.
I learnt about leitmotifs in some opera lessons, it's impressive how they kept it for all the types of media nowadays
What purpose would the arm cruncher? It would just crush your bones. No muscle build there.
What a nice New Years surprise.
I think the small handful of truly up to date SpongeBob memes are the plankton roasting many generations, and the “look at the time, it’s high noon” plankton line. Idk other ones but most are def from the first 3 seasons, so goated
7:44 In my personal theory, the reason why Sandy signed SpongeBob onto the anchor throwing contest is because she quickly figured out that SpongeBob was lying and she wanted to embarrass him
I always thought that the hairs are embedded intro the anchor arms in such a way that more pressure forces them out, like a very gross spaghetti machine. As for why it doesn’t happen to SpongeBob? Maybe it’s a different setting or he bought a cheaper, more limited version, since he doesn’t need to „impress the ladies“
SpongeBobs voice crack when mr krabs shows up I love it
The fact this video came up on my recommended after watching the other 2 a few weeks ago made my day
The karate episode is actually a metaphor for sex, there are many hints in the episode.
1. SpongeBob says safety first as he puts on his helmet (condom)
2. he calls up sandy for a late night karate session
3. He won’t stop thinking about it at work and ends up getting in trouble for it
4. Sandy watching SpongeBob chop his salami really gets her in the mood for some karate
5. “Do you think mr. Krabs ever does karate”
6. They put on a late night live karate show at the krusty krab
I will never not laugh my ass off at the anchor chasing the referee.
Suds is easily my favorite episode of SpongeBob. SpongeBob reminds me of me where he will go to work even if sick. Plus, there are just so many entertaining moments.
Definitely do Season 2, It’s just as special as season 1!
season 3 too! dont forget!
@@robroy6374Even season 4 isn't too bad
@@jupitervideos7702 yup. people like to bash season 4 too much.
that who me from the first episode will forever be my most quoted spongebob dialogue
“Everything is chrome in the future” is prolly a reference to the early 00s media trope of “the future” there was a metallic theme from the cars to the clothes. Think Zenon : Girl of the 21st Century. Or any rap song set in the “future”
53:55 I would also note that the Dutchman's design is meant to reflect the appearance of real-life pirate (and figure of folklore in his own right) Edward Teach, AKA Blackbeard, which adds an extra layer to his spookiness.
1:24:44 Oh in the karate school I go to, there are even drills where our last ditch effort on breaking out of an attack from the opponent is either pinching their thighs or armpits, or if you’re being tightly held onto from behind, you can massage their hands with your knuckles, or bang their hands with your knuckles. One time in the pinch drills, my karate partner accidentally pinched me too hard that I had a bruise on my arm… I did not notice it until I got home, and it really explained why it kept hurting the whole time after I got pinched
SB129 shaped me as a person i swear. i think it’s why i love psychological thrillers, shows like alfred hitchcock presents, the twilight zone, and why i have such a deep interest in time space and the nature of reality.
seeing it as a kid i swear woke something up in me 😂
whenever this show ends i guarantee that the first 3 seasons will be in the hall of fame for cartoons according to a majority of the fanbase
"Powerfully smart but trapped in a body unable to speak" is a thing that happens IRL with people. The most common example would be autistic people with verbal communication difficulties. There are notable examples of very brilliant autistic people who were just thought of as unintelligent because of that, until advances in understanding (and being lucky enough to be able to benefit from them) allowed them to communicate effectively with their allistic caregivers (spellcheck doesn't consider this a real word, which I think further hammers home the issue).
Here’s me theory on how the hair is grown on the last setting of ‘Anchor Arms’: think of the glove as a ballon with pattern and texture built into the skin, as the air is blown that pattern/texture is emphasized. The “hair” is really just inverted follicles of the glove that revert when enough air is blown in, causing the pressure to push the “hairs” out. Kinda like those pens you’d get at the book fair that look like little animals and when you squeeze them the eyes pop out.
But in all seriousness, these videos have been very enjoyable. Im shocked how I’ve retained memories from nearly every episode thus far!! Keep going until I figure out when my brain hit its max capacity!! Lmao
Memory unlocked, I used to actually be scared the fridge would freeze the kitchen if I left it open
1:14:30 One possibility I've seen floated was that, combined with how the characters in the future are called "SpongeTRON" and "PaTRON" that that future is one where machines have taken command of the world, and optimize everything in their image. Doesn't fully connect to their treatment of Squidward, but maybe Spongetron is just as nice as Spongebob is...
The Chaperone, especially the end part is stupid funny and so far, one of the best parts I love about classic SpongeBob
1:39:40 this is such an underrated episode, its my favorite spongebob episode of all time. sleepy time is literally so well constructed
did anyone notice that the calendar in the future says 4077? that would mean the year before squidward was frozen was 2077. that doesn't make sense to me but i thought i'd point that out.
Sleepy Time was definitely my favourite. I don't know if it made dreams my favourite little curiosity, or if it just happened to touch on something I already like so much. The night time mood contrasting with the dreams is also just so wonderful, in a way I'm not sure I can explain. And it's also special because it's a piece of media that takes me back to when I watched it, including how it feels to be that young, there's a sense of comfort and freshness that I think is just lost as you become an adult. But thankfully for me, something completely different and recent that was able to mimic the special feelings I get from this was Deltarune, however that's another thing where I'm not sure I can answer the why of it.
Fun fact, if Squidward was frozen in the freezer for 2,000 years, then it means he’s been frozen sense 2017, still frozen in 2024, and won’t be unfrozen until March 6th 4017 as the calendar in the background shows
37:43 BRO, Spongebob still got that abrasive side in him 😂😂
I love the episode where SpongeBob turns into a Snail and the episode where Gary runs away called Have you seen this Snail.
MuscleBob BuffPants: Oh yeah, how tough of an episode! That anchor scene though
9/10 Amazing
Squidward the Unfriendly Ghost: Uh you're bald?
7/10 decent
The Chaperone: Do the sponge guys, easily one of pearl's best
8/10 Great
Employee of the Month: Spongebob and Squidward adventures will always be iconic in season 1-3
10/10 Fantastic
Scaredy Pants: Not bad for halloween(but I suggest you a season 11 episode "The Legend of Boo-kini Bottom")
8/10 Great
I was a Teenage Gary: If you Squidward in "Naughty Nautical Neighbors, and, Culture Shock", you'll despise him here
WILL YOU CLAM UP
4/10 Bad
SB-129: fun fact: this aired in Decemner 1999
Adore is not enough, remind me of Futurama
FUTURE
11/10 Perfect

8/10 Great

.....................................

Amazing
This was and has been incredibly enjoyable to watch. I have a spongegar decal cause it’s just so good. I truly hope you find the time and get the numbers to continue making season 2
I think the tree in spongebob's closet was his chrismas tree, that patrick turned into shoes without asking.
I thought about that too but then I realised they didn't know what Christmas was still
You know what's interesting, at the beginning of the series, Spongebob is supposed to be 14, so it's implied by the Junior Prom episode with Pearl that Spongebob Graduated early or the school system under the sea is different for every species.
I thought he was 24?
@@thatfuzzypotato1877 yeah I had the same assumption with him Patrick and Sandy being around the same age and Squidward slightly older, maybe like 35.
These videos are a small group that I will watch everyday no matter what the style of videos give a comfort
yesss please do season 2 and 3!! these videos are so good and nostalgic and I love your passion for this show. btw the term you're looking for is "Leitmotif", it's used in pretty much all visual media. I actually think it was a good choice to use the lively, friendly sounding Krusty Krab theme when it's creepy and empty, it adds to the "off" feeling of the episode imo
Could've sworn Spongebob managed to play the tissue in the Ghost Squidward episode. 🤔
I remember I was 9 years old and saw a sneak peak of the show called SpongeBob SquarePants and I instantly knew I didn’t want to miss the premiere. Once it came out I was hooked.
"Squidward was just left up there to die... I found this episode to be just awesome."😂😂😂 killed me
“This squirrel is trying to kill me”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
