  1. Uh... Rise and Shine? Do we really wanna respark that controversy--oh wait this was the prank I asked for :P

    Yup. A Pal for Gary. Predictable. Deserved. Absolutely appalling with how much misunderstanding and hatred was put into SpongeBob's character to the point where it's hard to think of him without that major blow, and it's really unfunny and overly painful on top of that. I mean, this isn't my #1 but it still made a high #6, and I can't ignore it as it's pretty much the default bad episode that I've never encountered anyone liking. And Stuck in the Wringer... as I mentioned in my last commentary, Patrick's true guilt and sadness for harming SpongeBob, along with helping him out of the wringer, was enough to take it off my list, although I still wouldn't say it's good.

    As for the Honorable Mentions, oh coincidence, Squidward's School for Grown-Ups made my #5. I've ripped into how juvenile and toxic morally this was so I won't delve. And it was followed up with "Can You Spare a Dime?" of all things. I'm just hoping it makes the best list to compensate (SEE IT HERE TO VOTE BECAUSE ADVERTISING), and it looks to be getting a good amount of points too so far.

    And finally, here's my final leaked list to kill any suspense you have. More out. :men:

    25. Pineapple Fever (#32)

    24. Summer Job (#37)

    23. House Sittin' for Sandy (Surprised this missed the cut, but it's more tedious and monotonous than anything so I don't mind)

    22. All That Glitters (#10)

    21. Are You Happy Now? (#36)

    20. The Inmates of Summer (Too childish for my tastes)

    19. Slide Whistle Stooges (#29)

    18. The Abrasive Side (If not for having the most outright toxic moral of the show, I actually would've loved this)

    17. Dumped (Boring. Only episode from pre-movie I didn't find funny)

    16. Demolition Doofus (#23)

    15. Waiting (#16)

    14. The Card (#42)

    13. Grooming Gary (It's both a gift and a curse that this slow-paced and pampery episode was forgotten)

    12. Rodeo Daze (#48)

    11. The Splinter (#19)

    10. Planet of the Jellyfish (Don't shoot me please :()

    9. Atlantis SquarePantis (#34)

    8. Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom (#13)

    7. A Pal for Gary (NUMERO UNO)

    6. Squid Baby (#11)

    5. Squidward's School for Grown-Ups (First Runner-Up)

    4. The Clash of Triton (#14)

    3. Pet Sitter Pat (#25)

    2. Someone's in the Kitchen with Sandy (#12)

    1. SpongeBob You're Fired (#9)

  2. So the critic reviews are coming in, and they're exactly what I expected. They're mostly positive (93% right now) and compliment it like any past Pixar film with it's stellar animation, comedy and heart, however it's still put at a lower pedestal than its predecessor, much like Monster's University.

    Oh gee, I sure do wonder what the #1 is going to be!

     

    It sure can't be that episode that topped the Bottom 50 two years in a row! In fact, it's probably not going to be that at all!

    Trust me. It won't. :P

    I'd talk about One Coarse Meal and how I think much of the hatred for it comes from a misunderstanding from the viewers of how the characters actually work but heck, I'll save that argument for another day, too much tension to #1.

  4. "To Love a Patty" is such a... strange episode. While I'm surprised it's this high, I'm more surprised it even exists, as it's an anomaly compared to the rest of season 5, as those episodes were more child-friendly and thus sucked by having more juvenile plots or being mind-numbing and boring (such as Waiting, Atlantis SquarePantis and The Inmates of Summer, all on my list). This episode wasn't as bare-boned as those and could have lead to a pretty insane and funny parody of love stories, but the seriousness of SpongeBob being romantically and sexually attracted to a disgusting sandwich outweighs the ridiculousness of the concept from an outsider, and the logic of SpongeBob's love for patties in general. It even started out pretty darn good until everything was hammered in by crappy electropop and grotesque visuals.  Not even sure what to think here.

  5. Alright! Just in the first day I've got seven lists from:

    Myself

    Trophy

    Honest Slug

    Wumbo

    crushingmayhem

    Fa

    SOF

    Let's keep that up. The list I got already surprised me in how much variety there was. Heck, not a single episode made every list. I'm not sure if that's good or bad... but at this point even a mention on your list could drastically change an episode's placement. Don't be shy.

  6. Well jjs said that I could do this if Wumbo wasn't able to when I asked. So why not, otherwise there wouldn't be a list this year, and I gotta do something with free time :p.

    Anyways, welcome to The SpongeBob Community's ever-popular, now-annual fan list of all of our favorite episodes! That's a mouthful... but don't you worry, anyone on the site can join! I'm not sure if the general consensus has changed since last year, although with some really well-liked episodes coming out recently, alongside new members and possible changes, this still may be entertaining as that's always welcome. Rules are the same as last time--simply send me, @More, via Private Message, a list of what you believe to be the twenty-five best episodes of SpongeBob. Your number twenty-five will receive one vote, and your number one will receive 25. The placement will be determined by the total amount of points an episode gets.

    Don't worry if you can't think of them off the bat, heck I can't do that, so I'm giving you the rest of the month. I will also allow you to voluntarily send commentary on episodes that were on your list. Hopefully we can get better participation than past lists. I may even get some SBM'ers involved, unless that's a terrible idea.

    tl;dr, SEND your TWENTY-FIVE FAVORITE episodes to ME in ORDER! No more or less.  (You MUST TELL ME if you make changes) The due date is SUNDAY, JULY THIRD, @10:00pm EST.

    VOTING CLOSED! THE LIST IS FINISHED! Read it if you will.

    Let the countdown begin!

    I can defend it, I find at least 25 other episodes that I dislike even more than I do for this one, and that is enough. I can't really hate this episode because I see no reason to be severely agitated by it, or even really annoyed except maybe pirate wrestling, although it does get a laugh for the idea sounds fun in real life.

    This is practically my own view :p.

  8. Choir Boys to me almost lies on that fine line of "so bad, it's good." I can get why many hate it, heck I kinda can't stand it due to how predictable it is  and how annoying SpongeBob's, not to mention deliberate, attacks and dream-topping of Squidward were with no improvement to the story or comedy besides "look at how much of a saint SpongeBob is," but some of the horrible gags like the "captive audience" or the twist ending are actually strangely funny in the way a train would crash and burn. And as for SpongeBob You're Fired just scroll up.

  9. That makes 2 more off my list, as All That Glitters was #23 and Squid Baby was at a much higher #6. For the former I'm kinda surprised it made the top 10 this year, although it's still the worst episode in the season with how poorly it tries to homage the soap-orepa-esque style with the emotional elements being dragged so long and for such minor reasons that it comes off as nasty, and the lack of jokes didn't help. Squid Baby's more sad than anything as it's a terribly botched parody of head trauma that lacks any empathy in favor of constant head-butting and poop jokes.

  10. I'll be blunt. Little Yellow Book is a good episode in my eyes, it did a lot of things really well that I think many fail to give it credit for due to how much of a backlash it is to the fandom's precious STP ("Squidward Temper Plotline") hatred. (which because of people being sick of that, it made it a really good place for discussion) If anything it helped to resolve most of the complaints lodged at those episodes, filler was nonexistent, SpongeBob was shown to be an innocent child with naivete in his diary to show it, and much of the gags were either really silly, like SpongeBob clucking like a chicken or naming a spatula Fifi being taken so seriously by him, or really exaggerated, like most of Squidward's, to say justified, torment from getting his house contained by a helicopter to sneaking in a good murder joke from the cops. The town's hypocrisy makes perfect sense as the content in SpongeBob's diary is too silly for most to initially believe was a real diary until his feelings were hurt by it.

    As for the others, The Clash of Triton made my list at (#4), Smoothe Jazz at (#8), and the atrocious episode I just ranted on was (#2). No way I can beat Nugget's speech from last year on the former and even if I can later, MoBros may even do better when he reviews it, so I'm not gonna look stupid delving into its flaws. Smoothe Jazz could've also worked with a change of focus, but god why did it shove in Patrick's worst appearance to date, he has no purpose in the story and is painfully unfunny and barely even has a conscience. And... ^^^^^^^^ you know.

  11. Face Freeze is an episode that didn't make my list, however I'd still consider it the laziest episode of the show behind my #1. Can I say much about it? there's unfittingly disturbing faces? Is there any more substance than that? No? Well then... I've talked about Boating Buddies and Waiting (#15) last year so not much to say at all, really.

  12. Sorry I didn't talk about this one yet, I saw this later than all the others due to scheduling and then just put it as a low priority. But I liked this. It's colorful, random, manic fun all the way through. I really loved the subplot of Squidward thinking the whole sequence was a dream, and with all the SpongeBob's running around with how much chaos it caused in the Krusty Krab. However, give it a few weeks, it'd be the episode I'd forget because of its lack of substance. It's energetic but there's very little behind that, and if I wanted more clone mayhem, it was done better in The Fairly Odd Parents, Jimmy Neutron, Gravity Falls and My Little Pony. 7/10 for me.
