So FINALLY, after a literal year long hiatus (isn't Nick clever), we're getting this episode out of the way after so long. This episode has been floating online in Greek ever since summer 2013, and by now you might know that a few members (myself included) weren't a huge fan of it. I won't say my thoughts yet, because perhaps the English version will be better.

The german version was good. 8/10 for that one, we'll see how the english one goes. 

[President Squidward]

It's the usual "Squidward slacking off and SpongeBob taking it seriously" cliché.

Sounds boring if you ask me.

[Space Cowboy]

Wait how can the english version be better if it's the same episode but in a different language?

If it's in a different language, you don't get most of the dialogue. You could miss lots of verbal jokes that way, which could potentially make the episode better.

Especially the loss of potential English puns. Most of them don't work in other languages.

The story was a little bit strange, but good and entertaining. The tasks of Mr. Krabs and Squidward's rejection of it were good. The time cards were just great and the stomach of the Yeti Crab was good too.

 

7.5/10 points. There weren't so many gags.

Actually, there is an encore: "Kenny the Cat"

You should update that first post.

I was referring to encores of this episode, not Kenny the Cat.

Oh, I thought you meant episode encores

Seeing it like 2 times in Greek and now I saw it on EST. Just what I thought in Greek, it could work as an opening comic strip in SB Comics. But as an episode? Why even make this. I mean there's nothing unique about another Krusty Krab episode. The dialogue was tolerable to watch. There's nothing bad about it, it just didn't need to exist.

THAT GIFT OF GUM AND OLD S̶B̶ MUSIC THO. Best Day Ever and Gift of Gum references in one season? I think the population number was close to the one in WhoBob WhatPants. And another reference to the Grandma from Have You Seen This Snail. Idk why but there's a lot of those.

[Jjs Goodman]

Well, for an episode I was dreading, it surprisingly was average. It wasn't special or anything, but it wasn't too bad. The old music and visual gags were pretty amusing. My biggest problem is that I just wasn't a fan of the plot. We've done this plot so many times before, where Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob and Patrick (replacing Patrick with Squidward in this episode) to not do something, but they do it anyways (Face Freeze, Hooky, Sailor Mouth, The Main Drain, ect), so I wasn't looking forward to seeing this formula repeated again. That being said, despite the predictable plot, the English dialogue made me enjoy the episode a bit more than the Greek version, so I guess watching it in English did help. I'd probably give it a C+/B-.

I thought this was a pretty good episode. I kept thinking about Graveyard Shift when I first heard about this ep, but it wasn't like it at all. I liked seeing Gummy 2.0 and Squidward pitying SpongeBob enough to save him. It was a nice episode to come to after a year long hiatus. 

[SG19]

Due to having Suddenlink, I was barred from watching this episode and all future new episodes unless the Viacom dispute ends, which I doubt it will anytime soon.

[BeachBob95]

It was nice. A bit boring at times. The dialogue made it charming. 7.8/10

[SpongeOddFan]

this ep is alright, but at least we saw Gummy again 8/10
