Fun fact! A commercial for this special was shot under water! During which they actually broke the Potty puppet. So they had to get a new one for other episodes.
Having an entire society energized by music would be a nightmare in the long run. Imagine having to sing every day to make your car move or having to write a sonnet to turn on your computer.
7:04 actually yeah, pretty sure there's a episode where him and SpongeBob go to some crab convention taking place in a hotel and this mf stole the entire hotel room 💀.
Y'know, this being a musical "special" or whatever where David Bowie's the only major character who DOESN'T sing despite BEING A HIGHLY-REGARDED PROFESSIONAL SINGER really reminds me of how in the Lorax (2012) Zac Efron's and Taylor Swift's characters are pretty much the only characters besides the Lorax himself who never sing.
I never really liked that “Goodbye Atlantis” song. Felt like the special ended on a sour note with everyone else being sad about leaving and SpongeBob not giving a single shit.
Similar to Ke$ha's situation, Michael Jackson wasn't allowed to sing in the Simpsons episode where he cameo'd in. All of the singing was dubbed by an impersonator
4:08 I DON'T REMEMBER IT LOOKING LIKE THIS I DON'T REMEMBER IT LOOKING LIKE THIS I DON'T REMEMBER IT LOOKING LIKE THIS I DON'T REMEMBER IT LOOKING LIKE THIS I DON'T REMEMBER IT LOOKING LIKE THIS I DON'T REMEMBER IT LOOKING LIKE THIS
Who left David Bowie to just do EXPOSITION and not a song? Even Adam Levine had a song in that crappy Megamind show! And he sang beautifully at that. Bowie deserved better.
0:19 Wait, Patchy the Pirate is played by Tom Kenny?!?!?!?!! I didn’t know that until now wtf! Now that I think about it it makes a TON of sense now! 🤯
Funny you mention Tom Kenny and Afghanistan; there’s actually a banned (or at least deleted) SNL skit where it shows Spongebob, voiced by Kenny, talking about America and then a stereotypical terrorist comes on and he gets very uncomfortable, telling the producers that it feels wrong to be a part of this. That bit is one of the reasons Nickelodeon doesn’t let him voice the character in other pieces of media.
I remember this special being highly regarded when it released, and now it’s generally considered one of the most boring ones… It’s just okay for me I’ll say this, Patchy’s segments were always the best parts. “CURSE THIS TRAFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC!!!”
Even as a kid I remembered being full on Patchy "...that's it?" Like I knew it was "they gotta leave just because the special has to end?" or "What was the CONFLICT of that episode even???" The ads made it look WAY more interesting than it actualy was.
Something that always bothered me about this special is that Plankton just showed up without any introduction or set up. They don't show him sneaking onto the bus or anything.
Fun fact tom kenny has a rock and soul band called tom kenny and the high seas, SpongeBob singing soul is something you need to check out before you die
Especially being considered modern era. That Christmas special holds a special place in my heart since I grew up with it when I was a kid. (I was like 7 when it came out)
yo I had a random shower thought the other day with a blast of nostalgia, you guys gotta watch the Horton Hears a Who full movie and then probably shit on it the entire time
Dude the fucking Sandy segment Hearing them say that the sprite work there was good and that Gumball's was bad Even tho anyone who has any knowledge of sprite work would say the complete opposite Amazing
you guys should watch the Jimmy Neutron Win, Lose and Kaboom special, it's much better that the episodes you watched and has the only Hugh Neutron hype moment
A LOT of critics tore this episode apart. But I think it had some redeeming qualities like a few jokes, the Class of 3000 approach of switching animation styles in different musical numbers, even if most of the songs are pretty bad, the Patchy segments as always saves the special like they did for Ugh or Party Pooper Pants Edit: the video game for this AND Truth or Square are so much better!
I don’t know if someone else mentioned this, but I love the extra touch that David Bowie's character has one blue eye and one green eye just like David Bowie had in real life, it’s a nice little easter egg.
Its so funny that jack says that at 7:04 bcus there deadass is an episode where mr.krabs steals a whole ass hotel room by tryna sneak it in his luggage
How do you make an hour long musical special guest starring the late great david bowie and NOT have him sing in it? Thats like making space jam and not having michael jordan play basketball!
Funny you guys said Mr Krabs would steal from a hotel, because a whole episode was about Krabs and SpongeBob trying to steal the entirety of a HOTEL ROOM.
If Camp Koral and The Patrick Star show were my only 2 options to turn to in a road split, im veering off the road and praying to land in at least sponge out of water.
So from what I heard, the reason why Bowie doesn’t sing is because they wrote the script and everything before they casted him
That’s why all writers should make a mental note to write _every character ever_ in case Bowie could potentially play them.
Spilling the Milk is the type of guy to say “Oh no you don’t!” when a robber tries to run away.
What.
which person in spilling the milk? or all of them lol

That was sad when that happened
tom kennys agent was made at the network or whoever filmed it cause he was at risk of getting the bends as well
Still can’t believe they show Patchy the Pirate hallucinating as he dies on kids tv
Having an entire society energized by music would be a nightmare in the long run.
Imagine having to sing every day to make your car move or having to write a sonnet to turn on your computer.
no straight roads
This was a subplot in The Marvels and none of the writers noticed how horrible and nightmarish that premise is.
What if you just get a recording of a song and play it?

I keep saying, they made a musical theme special, but there Guest Star David Bowie did not get one song to sing.
Years later and this STILL bothers me
Should have let him sing Life on Mars or Ziggy Stardust at least
@@cocballus250I love Ziggy. Haven't heard Life on Mars yet
I heard because they cast him last minute and they didn't have enough time to find someone else to voice him
Yeah that's actually insane 😭😭
7:04 actually yeah, pretty sure there's a episode where him and SpongeBob go to some crab convention taking place in a hotel and this mf stole the entire hotel room 💀.
Yeah it was about mr.Krabs going to a convention about cheapskates.
Let's hope they watch that one in the future
You beat me to it 😂
Yes, Kracked Krabs from season 7.
And then he won
Y'know, this being a musical "special" or whatever where David Bowie's the only major character who DOESN'T sing despite BEING A HIGHLY-REGARDED PROFESSIONAL SINGER really reminds me of how in the Lorax (2012) Zac Efron's and Taylor Swift's characters are pretty much the only characters besides the Lorax himself who never sing.
7:03 Yes! I think that episode is Penny Pinchers. He steals the WHOLE ROOM w/ SB and wins the award for the cheapest crab.
Kracked Krabs from season 7
I never really liked that “Goodbye Atlantis” song. Felt like the special ended on a sour note with everyone else being sad about leaving and SpongeBob not giving a single shit.

i was obsessed with the atlantis squarepantis game when i was a kid and when i lost the disc before i could finish it i cried so hard
Go buy another one and finish it.
7:07 Yes, he is. There's an episode where him and Spongebob steal an entire hotel room. No, I am not joking.

I'd love to see them look at the Fairy OddParents specials (Wishology, School's Out, Abra-Castrophe, etc). I feel like they would really enjoy them.

What's the point of having David Bowie as a guest for your musical episode when you don't even let him sing?
Funny you mention Tom Kenny and Afghanistan; there’s actually a banned (or at least deleted) SNL skit where it shows Spongebob, voiced by Kenny, talking about America and then a stereotypical terrorist comes on and he gets very uncomfortable, telling the producers that it feels wrong to be a part of this.

Oh yea I remember that! Makes sense nick doesn't let him because of that
Wasn't it the same one where they find p0ern on his laptop that's just an image of sponges on sale or something?
This special completely wasted David Bowie
Fr like give him a song
2:32 Bro just explained spong on the run 💀
This episode is so peak fiction
Is it really? I mean, the first movie exists
The entire series has tons of fiction that is more peak than this.
Not me just finding out that Tom Kenny plays ice king because I had background play on and thought the episode changed
15:22 Patchy the Pirate in Breaking Bad
17:52 i was the one in chat who asked that im fangirling rn
I played the SpongeBob Atlantis game on the 3ds when I was younger
DUDE SAME
7:03 There is an episode that ends with him and SpongeBob basically stealing the entire hotel room
Actually always skipped or walked out on the Patchy the Pirate stuff as a kid. Nowadays, I appreciate how comedic it was
7:07 Yes that was an epsiode Kracked Krabs. Its one of my favorate epsiodes.
Same here
One of your favorites? Really high praise. I think it's fine but not one of my favorites, even of the season.
@@ShadowtheUA-camr523 I think its a really funny episode.
@@icecreamhero2375 ok
5:23 it’s been two years since they reacted to Alvin and the Chipmunks and they still have that cursed image

I’ll say this, Patchy’s segments were always the best parts.

7:05 There is literally an episode where he and SpongeBob does that lol
Honestly, watching this episode is worth it to remember how amazing David Bowie was. R.I.P.
I guess im not the only one that drives a boat on the road
Something that always bothered me about this special is that Plankton just showed up without any introduction or set up. They don't show him sneaking onto the bus or anything.
14:07
Thank GOD i wasn't the only one. I always thought they were Spaghetti-Os as a kid
Still do cuz what even is that?..
7:06 Mr Krabs canonically did this.
Fun fact tom kenny has a rock and soul band called tom kenny and the high seas, SpongeBob singing soul is something you need to check out before you die
It’s a SpongeBob Christmas and The Legend of Bookini Bottom are 2 really good specials
So true!
Especially being considered modern era. That Christmas special holds a special place in my heart since I grew up with it when I was a kid. (I was like 7 when it came out)
The Legend of Boo-kini Bottom is my favorite special of the entire series. It's a SpongeBob Christmas! is my number 3.

I used to have this special on dvd but my stupid child brain was too underdeveloped to appreciate the jokes.
17:34 rainbow dash.
Regardless of how bad this special is, the ultimate redeemer of this special is the fact David Bowie is on here.
i absolutly adored this special when i was younger i even played the tie in game alot as well as and had a blast with it.

TRyWatching "A better schedule for Nickelodeon's main block" by Evan Rosman
The songs from this ep have been stuck in my head for years
There are at least 4 different King Neptunes, (show, 1st movie, 3rd movie, this special) that I can't tell which is meant to be the real one. 😅
Neptune Is just their family name yk..their all cousins or something
I can't wait them to react to the Truth or Square 1 hour long special
What are the bets on them tearing it apart...
you guys should watch the Jimmy Neutron Win, Lose and Kaboom special, it's much better that the episodes you watched and has the only Hugh Neutron hype moment

Edit: the video game for this AND Truth or Square are so much better!
That's what the switching animation styles reminded me of! Didn't even think of class of 3000 but it's such a good comparison
This special was my childhood tbh
Wait yo, I havent watched this channel in forever they hit 1 million?? congrats!!! I was here since around 100k! :)
I was JUST watching an old review of this, this was a canon event
I LOVED this movie as a kid. It was just cool seeing a whole different place and culture and the characters learning about it
Wait. Was this whole episode just Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?
well that's just crazy talk
Probably the most nostalgic SpongeBob special for me
7:02 That’s literally the plot of the Penny Pinchers episode
SPILLING THE GYATT
I used to have a DS game based on this episode as a kid!
This episode was a fever dream, I refuse to believe it was real 😭
I remember the game and how Sandy could chuck Patrick like a ninja star. I legit forgot she did that in the actual episode.
Legit forgot about this episode it’s such an acid trip
You know what else weird?
*Dan Vs.*
.....Please, I've been suggesting it since Spilling The Milk was reacting to anime.
7:05 he has canonically done that😭
I didn't know Patchy the Pirate was Tom Kenny until just now...
SAME. talk about vocal range.
17:52 Plankton tried stealing the formula in Frozen Face off when nobody was there and he failed.

Liking Patchy to Kitboga.....I'm NEVER going to unsee that now. CURSE YOU!
They had David Bowie as guest star and they give Him 0 Songs!
14:55 I have a very clear memory of Sandy using Squidward as a gun in an FPS in the Wii Atlantis game
The video game scene in this and that one adventure time episode used to give me nightmares, I don’t know why
Gary's life is objectively better without SpongeBob around. In that one episode, he ate half the sofa and was completely nonchalant.
Its so funny that jack says that at 7:04 bcus there deadass is an episode where mr.krabs steals a whole ass hotel room by tryna sneak it in his luggage
The Mr Krabs song's animation style looks like Danganronpa
How do you make an hour long musical special guest starring the late great david bowie and NOT have him sing in it? Thats like making space jam and not having michael jordan play basketball!

They need to watch Labyrinth now

Funny you guys said Mr Krabs would steal from a hotel, because a whole episode was about Krabs and SpongeBob trying to steal the entirety of a HOTEL ROOM.
8:58 that's a good point, that's probably the reason why
I still have the Atlantis SquarePants game for the Wii. This special was that goated
16 seconds ago is insane
"Is mr krabs the kind of guy to steal from hotels" yes thats literally a part of one of the episodes 🤭
