I just want to comment on "5 Star Restaurant". Well, I was KIND of right about Granny Tentacles and Grandpat getting together; too bad Granny Tentacles only DATED him for his money and scooter! Also, I don't think I've ever seen ANY cartoon series with such a schizophrenic sense of continuity compared to the larger franchise universe they're a part of than "The Patrick Star Show". Most of the time, they don't really care if something makes sense in the larger scale of the franchise. But when they decide to actually set things up for things that happen later in the franchise; they REALLY go all out! For instance, It just goes to show you that you can never predict when this show will set up something that will actually connect something continuity wise with the rest of the larger franchise! Enough said, true believers!

Says the man who once voiced The Lorax, a character that is almost IMPOSSIBLE to be more progressive than THAT!

"The Nitwitting"...is complicated for me to personally hate. For starters, it was the very FIRST episode segment to air after Stephen Hillenburg passed away, and ANY episode segment to air after that happened (let alone the first one) was going to have a tough sell. But...I just can't find it terrible enough for me to put it on my personal Worst list. And I can honestly see how "Spongebob, You're Fired" was basically a FORCED episode write by the Nickelodeon Studio, but the writers could've STILL at least TRIED to write a good episode about it. For instance, Mr. Krabs once tried to fire Spongebob for focusing too much on Karate instead of work, so it's not like the writers didn't HAVE options they hadn't already tried before! I probably would've put "Spongebob, You're Fired" on my list had there been more choices. Only two picks left to see. To quote Patrick: "I'm so close, I can almost TASTE it!" Enough said, true believers!

While I didn't have The Nitwitting episode on my list, it is still a very bad episode and was on my bottom 25. This episode is just insanely stupid. The whole episode is just idiots being idiots, which doesn't make for good humor. There isn't other jokes involved with it, or any smart people around, so its not a funny type of stupid, but just an annoying type of stupid. The jar scene is also disgusting, and the plot is boring; Spongebob also becoming a nitwit is pretty lame. Overall, this is just a lame and unfunny episode that can also be pretty annoying. It really feels like I should hate Spongebob You're Fired more; it's a lame premise, Mr Krabs has the dumbest reason to fire Spongebob, and the episode is just very boring with few jokes. But for some reason....I kinda don't hate it? Like I don't even know why, I feel like I should...but for some reason it doesn't feel as bad as I'd expect it to be when I watch it? I really don't know why. But I don't blame people for hating it, since it's a very lame and boring episode. There's really no actual reason to fire Spongebob, and the fact that the reasoning they came up with was "It would save Mr Krabs a nickel" just proves that. The entire first half of the episode is just Spongebob being "funemployed", with no good jokes (and bad Sandy characterization, why is she doing unethical experiments on people?), and is just boring. When Spongebob starts looking for a job again, the episode just does the same thing four times in a row; Spongebob is hired at a restaurant themed after a specific type of food, with the owner wearing an outfit of that food, Spongebob ends up only being able to make krabby patties (or a mix of krabby patties and the food the restaurant is themed after), and the owner gets mad and fires him. Then all of a sudden, all these food mascots start kidnapping Spongebob because, as it turns out, the customer actually liked his food. This is easily the best part of the episode, as everyone trying to kidnap Spongebob, and then a krabby patty guy (Squidward) appearing to save Spongebob is pretty fun. And, more importantly, the weiner guy being spared by Squidward only to instantly get run over is REALLY funny and easily my favorite thing about the episode. And then they ruined the potentially wholesome moment at the end when Squidward says that the only thing he hates more than Spongebob is the smell of burning krabby patties. Why exactly is this considered a wholesome moment? Squidward literally says he hates Spongebob, just that he hates something else even more. That's not remotely wholesome....also, the fact that Spongebob says he's aware that Squidward hates him is very weird. He's supposed to be super naive and not understand that Squidward hates him. The fact that he says he DOES know Squidward hates him not only doesn't fit with the rest of the show, but also implies that Spongebob intentionally annoys Squidward knowing that Squidward hates it, which I don't like. Yeah, I don't know why I don't hate this episode more lol. Also SQUID BABY BOTTOM 2 YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

go back to Hollywood, Danny.

4. Excuse me, large lady. I'm a widdle girl who's misplaced herself. Can you help find me? I'm pwetty! The Nitwitting - 237 points 13 of 21 lists (Highest ranking #2, @WhoBibbles @So Sejima) (+7) Season: 12 Writer: Kaz Plot: Patrick inducts SpongeBob into his prestigious society of dullards and doofuses. Another post-sequel episode that is at the very bottom, also written by Kaz (it's his seasonal infamous episode in season 12). It wasn't even in the bottom 10 in 2021 and now it's 7 places higher at #4. Anyways, I always knew this episode was gonna suck ever since I read the plot. I don't want to see another episode about dumbing down characters because it will never work. I'd say this is the episode that compiles ALL of post-sequel's flaws and the argument from SB twitter "post-sequel is too exaggerated and there is no plot" is valid. This episode is just basically the nitwit club having literally a brainless behaviour and doing stupid activities which is very boring and cringe. Just like Ink Lemonade, it has a lot of gross-out that is too uncomfortable to watch. It feels more like a Canadian cartoon more than SpongeBob. It's such a mess of an episode that goes all over the place. 3. Well, I hate the smell of burning Krabby Patties even more. SpongeBob You're Fired - 269 points 12 of 21 lists (Highest ranking #1, @SquiddyFace @WhoBibbles @dmandagiraffe) (-2) Season: 9 Writers: Marc Ceccarelli, Luke Brookshier, Doug Lawrence Plot: Mr. Krabs fires SpongeBob to save a nickel, so SpongeBob must find work at other restaurants. And here we are, SBYF lost its #1 spot this year and now it's down to #3. From all the specials in the show, this is absolutely the worst one. I hate it even more after hearing the history behind it: you guessed it, it was mandated by Nick. So they make Mr. Krabs fire SpongeBob in the dumbest way possible (he never deserves to be fired so what's the point?) to save a fucking nickel. Then SpongeBob proceeds to cry for 2 whole minutes and make it as annoying as possible. After boring minutes of SpongeBob being miserable unemployed (and Patrick not helping with the fun-employment thing) he looks for new jobs and gets fired everytime because he can only make Krabby Patties, isn't that funny??? It just feels really forced as you can tell Nick made the crew write this mess...it's the most pointless special you'll ever see knowing SpongeBob is always a hard worker so why have a reason to fire him? It can work as a little joke in an episode but not as a 22-minute special!!!

The show has proven time and time again they do have the juice to make a good special, maybe perhaps people didn't vibe with this episode and that's perfectly fine? Did you even read Carotte's review? I don't see why bash people for hating it, we all have different opinions and I think the attitude towards people hating this special shouldn't be an aggressive response like "OH LET'S SEE HOW YOU WRITE A SPECIAL, SEE HOW HARD IT IS". Truth or Square will always be a divisive ep of the show. Steel and Winter said their opinions on the episode just fine despite loving them, why not you do the same instead of going after people who dislike it? And I'm pretty sure it's gonna make it to the best list, so you have nothing else to lose. That's all

My feelings are hurt, to say the least. This will probably be the weirdest thing I ever post here. I said in my recent post in this topic, that i joined a religious social group. I get that a lot of people here more than likely aren't religious in any way and I completely respect that. But I'm still going to talk about this situation, because it's just weird. This isn't actually any complaint about the religion or church itself, but more about a person at this place. So I'm going to this place about three times a week. There's this guy that works there and this may be in my head, but I feel like he hardcore is scared of me. If we're in a group setting (I do things with these people outside of the church environment too), he seems to avoid even looking at me. He'll speak to me, but doesn't seem to be able to hold a decent conversation. He'll speak to everyone in our friend group perfectly fine, and I can barely get him to say anything. I have almost everyone's number, including his. I tried asking him if I did anything to upset him and that there was a reason why I thought that. I kept it short, but honest. Im not somebody who is afraid to apologize when I'm in the wrong. I pretty much just got a no basically. Now here's the part that hurt me in a way. So one of the groups I'm in is only for people in their 20s. He runs it, because he's in his 20s. Everybody is around the same age, which is why we get along so well. I really don't want anyone judging this next part, but I've decided that I want to go through with doing the water baptism. Of course, he's the one that runs that. I decided not to bring it up to him, but to someone else. Nothing came out of it, so I brought it up to two friends tonight who mentioned it to him. He eventually walks up to me and he's asking me things about it that I don't really understand, but for only like ten seconds. He quickly walks off and I don't see him again. After we all leave this church tonight, we went to this fast food restaurant and for some reason he decided to sit right beside me. I tried talking to him, but he was giving very small responses. If he's afraid of me, that's whatever I guess. But this water baptism is very important to me and it's also really hard for me and I have questions. Honestly, I feel like I'll eventually just back out of it because I can't get answers. There's a lot more to this that I'm leaving out here. And I mean a lot. I can't imagine what tf this fear is of me, but I have a lot more people there that do care about me and don't make me feel unimportant in certain settings at this church. This is literally just an online journal entry for me. I would have posted this on SBM, but I'm more familiar with you guys and so I felt more comfortable posting it here.

...I...I will NEVER understand why people have so much HATE for "Truth Or Square"! Okay, FINE! Maybe some of the special WAS wasted potential and the "Patchy" segments not really needed, but let's see YOU write a one hour special and do better!...Oh, wait! You'd have to actually HAVE your own show to write one, first! Go ahead, I can WAIT to hear who actually HAS one and can back it up with proof! As for "Ink Lemonade", I have always FELT like it was bottom tier from the first time that I ever saw it aired! The only reason why I ranked it number 11 on my list is because I KNEW the episode was going to make bottom tier regardless of where I put it on my list, and there were a number of episodes that I wanted to TRY to get onto this list because I felt like they really deserve to be on this list!

Ink Lemonade was an episode I called incredible on SBM back when it first premiered maybe out of a sense of contrarianism but I do genuinely think the episode is "not that bad". It's not necessarily "great" or maybe even "good" but it's perfectly fine and has sick animation here and there. Just crazy visuals that help enhance the episode. It's maybe like Bottom 200 or something but def not bottom 5 of the entire show. It's maybe like a bottom 20 post sequel episode?

Gonna review one episode of the week. Everyone should watch Face/Off-Model episode. It's such a creative ep with lots of great jokes. It's a hilarious way to mock off-model character designs in animation. I fucking died at Steven Universe off-model joke. I loved jokes about all the faces of Patrick in each timeline. Easter Bunny side plot was godly with tying into the ep's plot. It was funny to see the audience hate off-model Patrick and disregard him except Slappy. And I couldn't have seen the twist at the end coming with our Patrick and off-model Patrick actually switching places in time (it was even hinted with infinite number sign joke they did a few mins ago). This episode was really strong and shows how much creativity The Patrick Star Show has, especially in terms of meta commentary. Hats off to creators. They have done an outstanding job. Grade: A

IMO: Truth or Square is not only an amazing episode, but is actually my favorite episode of the series. Truth or Square being on this list at all, let alone all the way down at #6 is easily the thing I disagree with most. I'm glad to see it at least avoided bottom 5 though. I thought it was gonna be like 4th. I don't want to go any further in depth about this episode just in case it's on the best list, because I'd rather do an actual writing then. If it doesn't make it, maybe I'll do a writing for this after the best list is finished. Ink Lemonade was in my bottom 10. This is another gross episode; between all the ink nosebleeds or whatever, the bandaid scene, and the ending scene with spiders coming out of Squidward's mouth, this episode is really disgusting. Thank god this episode is post sequel, because imagine how it'd be like if it was in post movie. This is some of the worst Squidward has ever been through, but none of it is actually funny, and is instead just kinda gross. Squidward doesn't even do anything wrong either, so it just ends up being a rare instance where "Squidward tortue" is an actual flaw; its neither funny or justified, so I just end up feeling bad for him. What makes it even worse is that after going through the haunted house or whatever it was, he doesn't even seem to be bothered at all by all of this, which makes no sense. It's just bad writing. This episode also has no funny jokes; besides the gross stuff, the other jokes are mostly just characters screaming and stuff, making this also a rare episode where "too wacky" is a real flaw. Overall, this is just a terrible episode and deserves to be down here. It says a lot that this episode got a bottom 10 placement with a single day of existence before submissions ended back in 2018.

I like Truth or Square. Bottom text.

6. Sigh, remember the day Sandy and I got maaarrrrriiiiiiiied? Truth or Square - 199 points 9 of 21 lists (Highest ranking #1, @Less_SpongeBob @Honest Slug) (-1) Season: 6 Writers: Luke Brookshier, Nate Cash, Steven Banks, Paul Tibbitt Plot: During a Krusty Krab anniversary celebration, SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs accidentally get locked in the freezer. The first of my many complains about TOS is...why did this even need to be TV movie if you're going to add extremely boring Patchy segments for about half the episode??? Good thing there is a 22-minute version that skips the Patchy segments (and the episode doesn't change at all) but the SpongeBob segments are not any better. Most of the flashbacks by themselves are not bad but the episode itself is just filler, filler and more filler...they are just sitting there in the vents and there is a flashback every 10 minutes which is surrounded by unnecessary or stupid scenes. This episode is also soooo lazy with reused animation (exact same footage of Plankton falling in the vents 3 times) and voice recordings (OWIE OW OW). Speaking of Plankton why the fuck is he even there? He contributes nothing and could easily be removed from this episode and not change a thing. This doesn't even feel like a special at all, just filler dragged out for 50 whole minutes. Also, what does eleventy-seventy even mean??? Couldn't they have used an existing number??? 5. Source? We love the source! Ink Lemonade - 217 points 12 of 21 lists (Highest ranking #1, @OWM) (-1) Season: 11 Writer: Kaz Plot: Patrick's lemonade stand is unsuccessful until he gets a secret ingredient from Squidward. Ah yes, the first post-sequel episode on this bottom list and it's pretty low at #5. During this good era I was surprised to see such a horrible episode, I couldn't believe it at first. I remember when we used to joke about Time of the Month but the actual thing killed the meme for me. Only thing I can praise about this episode is the top notch animation but the rest is just uncomfortable to watch. Why did they come up with the idea of Squidward's ink being an ingredient for lemonade? And most importantly, why is this episode so uncharacteristically gross? Did we really need to see Patrick's internal organs or spiders coming out of Squidward's mouth? I don't like to use the term "Squidward torture" unironically but here it's unfortunately nearly true. We have a 2 minute sequence of Patrick scaring Squidward to death for the sole purpose of getting his ink. I get some people find enjoyment out of it but this is just not for me.

"Smooth Jazz At Bikini Bottom"...I don't know WHY this episode is so high up on this list, it's one of the most boring, most NOTHING episode segments that I can personally THINK of! To quote someone from an "Animaniacs" special: "Congratulations, you just discovered the cure for Insomnia!" As for "Pets Or Pests"...maybe the Baby Worms DID look a little ugly, but in my personal way of thinking, that alone is NOT enough reason for me to put it on my worst list, especially since there are SO many other cartoons (and some of it actually INTENDED for kids to see) that have gotten away with depicting SO much uglier! If something is both mean-spirited AND ugly, that would be my personal number one choice for the Worst "Spongebob Squarepants" episode ever! That's all I want to say for now. Enough said, true believers!

I decided against submitting Pet or Pests this year because while I felt it was bad I felt no passion for putting it on my list. It's not an undeserved placement to be in the bottom 10

Smoothe Jazz is a bad episode. It wasn't on my list, but it's in my bottom 30. The big problem is Patrick's role. All he does is just eat everything, which is the cause of most of the conflict in the episode, and its just annoying. It also makes no sense that the crowd loved Patrick either. In general, there's barely any jokes in the episode. Honestly don't have much else to say. Funnily enough, Pet or Pests is in the exact same spot I put it on my list. This episode is one of the most boring episodes of the entire series, and Has zero jokes throughout the entire episode, or really anything good at all. It's one of the ugliest and grossest episodes of the entire series as well, the worms are all disgusting, and I don't know why we needed to see Mrs Wormsley giving birth. Larry not knowing Spongebob makes no sense, and Spongebob ringing Mrs Puff's doorbell for like 45 seconds is the most obvious filler in the entire series. This episode is terrible and deserves to be this low on the list.
