SBC's Top 50 Worst Episodes (2013 Edition)
"SBC's Top 50 Worst Episodes Ever" is a now-annual, fan-voted countdown, compiling lists of member's least favorite episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants. It was created in response to Wumbo's popular topic, for a Top 50 of the most popular episodes, and was followed up with a second and third edition in 2015 and 2016 due to its enormous success. The topic is hosted by Clappy.

Trivia
- This year's list did not allow additional commentary from members.
- Two episodes recieved multiple #1 votes: "Fungus Among Us" and "Squid's Visit"
- Truth or Square made the list at #50. However, in Wumbo's best list it made #31. It was the only episode to make both lists that year.
- More pre-movie episodes made this list than any future countdown.
- Surprisingly, "One Coarse Meal" didn't even cut the Top 25, and Clappy didn't even watch it. This may indicate there was a catalyst for it's hatred much later.
- Despite making the Top 10, “The Battle of Bikini Bottom” never made a future list until 2019, where it was an Honorable Mention.
- This is the first of three consecutive years that "A Pal for Gary" made #1. In 2018, it was unseated by “Stuck in the Wringer."
