What pre-movie Spongbob episode (seasons 1-3) is your least favorite?
Pic related. Patrick was too much of a dick and the twist at the end sucked.
I imagine there's loads of pre-movie episodes that I don't even remember existing. 60 episodes aired before the movie, and I can probably remember 10 off the top of my head.
Also the show had the typical fucked up schedule that Nick seems to give its cartoons, surprised it became as big a cash grab as it did.
The episode where they go on strike.But like all bad pre-movie episodes, the episode itself may have been bad but the humor was still fucking brilliant.
Probably the...I think it was the second episode? The one with no voice acting and the reef blower.
I remember not being fond of the House Party and Lost Episode specials.
The Patchy segments were great, but the actual Spongebob content wasn't really that funny, (Plus the Lost Episode's songs sucked)
>>77575968
ripped my pants.
Band Geeks is a common answer, but it's also mine. It's funny and emotional
>>77576173
>LEAST favorite.
>>77576173
>not liking band geeks
>>77576196
Maybe he hates fun and emotions.
Hello Mr enter.
>>77576272
Who?
The April Fool's episode wasn't that great. Neither was the first Halloween episode.
>>77575968
This episode could of been in the post-movie.
>>77575968
The Rock Bottom episode. I HATED it. It re-ran so often too...
>>77576355
YOU WHAT?!?
>>77576355
>The April Fool's episode wasn't that great. Neither was the first Halloween episode.
You take that back you whore!
Ghost squidward
Gary in the snail race
the Crying Clam
the one where he was stuck at Rock Bottom
>>77576402
>>77576418
>Gary in the snail race
Just because you were an idiot and didn't bet on Rocky to win.
>>77576399
With how much Rock Bottom shows up in spin-offs, you'd think it'd be in more than one episode.
Then again, I REALLY don't want to see the current showrunners' take on Rock Bottom.
>>77576092
KRUSTY KRAB IS UNFAIR
>>77576355
>>77576402
>>77575968
>this episode was bad because a character was a meanie
>>77576467
>generic fish designs with an extra limb or eye
>>77576511
It's not just that he was a "meanie", it also wasn't funny. It was just a poorly written episode in general with a few good jokes at the beginning.
>>77576552
Either that or something over the top grotesque and that's literally the only "joke" in the episode. "LOOK HOW GROSS THIS IS!"
>>77576468
How about this, Squidward?
>>77575968
Krusty Krab Training Video
Seriously I just can't understand how it's a somewhat common choice for best pre-movie episode.
>>77576816
Probably because it's so close to real life training videos that it's hardly satire.
Anyway, my vote goes to Rock Bottom. Has it moments, but it's pretty meh overall.
>>77575968
Yeah that episode annyoed the shit out of me.
Patrick becomes even more of an enormous stupid dickbag than in later episodes. And not in an entertaining way.
im with stupid by far
>>77576858
at least Rock Bottom has its moments
>>77576660
That's UNFAIR, not FUNFAIR!
Probably squeaky boots.
>>77577159
But the "Tell-tale Heart" reference though...
>>77576816
The episodes funnier if you ever worked a minimum wage job.
I Was a Teenage Gary was pretty bad.
>>77577886
>pre-movie
My pick's I'm With Stupid. I haven't seen it again for many years
>>77577089
A funfair?! Where? I could go for some fun!
The one where spongebob throws a party.
Honestly, the only episodes that i outright wouldn't bother to rewatch are the house party one and the "lost" episode.
Even then, I'd still probably give them a glance for the Patchy segmentsand that absolutely fucking sweet song at the end of house party
>>77577947
At the Krusty Krab!
>rock bottom
>worst
why does co have such shit taste in spongebob? like this wasn't one of the best gags in cartoon history

I don't remember if it was actually pre-movie, though. I remember that season 3 was stretched out for so long that a few of its episodes aired after the movie.

Only episode I can think of as bad. It's just takes forever to just get nowhere over and over.
>>77575968
90% of season 1 is forgetable trash. Season 2 and 3 were flawless though.
>>77578610
>90s era comic books
>>77577947
>>77578148
How the fuck did I still remember that entire scene?
How much Spongebob did I watch when I was a kid
The worst pre-movies episode is still better than the best one from after the first movie.
>>77579408
Eh, Krusty Towers I think is at least on par with some decent pre movie ones.
>>77578881
>90% of season 1 is forgetable trash
if you like season 2 and 3 more than 1 fine. but really season 1 isn't that bad.

The webcomic where something but at the same time nothing happens.
the specific page teh image came from
http://www.sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=193
I enjoy the comic but you have to accept it as it is, a nice slow story. also it is good source for reaction images in my opinion.
The Lost Episode. Not terrible but nothing memorable. Every other episode has at least one thing I really liked about it, but that one was was just really bland even in the Patchy segments.
>>77579764
Alright. Thanks. What's the plot in a nutshell?
>>77579674
What?? "Oh, these aren't homemade. They were made in a factory... a bomb factory. They're bombs." Instant classic
>>77579845
a disease causes most of the world's mammal population to die off and turn into monsters referred to as trolls. like zombies but not really animal looking. 90 years later most of the remaining survivors are people immune to the disease or people who aren't but luckily enough to be either on an island away from most of the disease or well guarded areas.
There is also magic but don't really know enough about it yet. but it didn't come into play till after the disease.
The main plot is a small underfunded crew exploring the ruins of old civilization. Remaining government barely funded them for reasons not yet known. but they are also secretly illegally collecting old books to sell for allot of money.
>>77578813
wow, that guys actually pretty yoked

You had to kill him. The boy cries you a sweater of tears... and you kill him. How are you going to live with yourself?

You really think so? It was always one of my favorites. I'm a bit of a sucker for long jokes, and the jokes inside the bigger jokes always seemed perfectly timed to me, but whatever.
>>77575968
>not liking "I'm With Stupid"
Fuck off Mr. Enter.
>>77580222
So do you people just dismiss every opinion that isn't in line with yours as whatever the fuck a "Mr. Enter" is?
Jelly fish jelly episode.
Something about that shit was just.... Unnerving.
>>77580304
Yes
>>77578881
I sincerely hope SB-129 was one of the 10%. One of the best episodes of the entire series imo.
>>77578610
Anyone else crack GBA jokes back when they first saw this?
>>77576369
>could of
Don't even remember what it was called but the one from season 1 were Spongebob and King Neptune have a cook off or something. Even as a kid I thought it was incredibly boring.
>>77580222
did he actually not like this episode or are we just assuming because"muh mean spirit".
also trips confirm. OP is mister enter. If you weren't before you are now. Sorry OP.
>>77576369
it gets a pass for the old man. Is there any pre-movie spongebob without at least one redeeming bit?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dTaTqva87g&ab_channel=Avromps1999
>>77580860
Jesus, I just thought it'd make interesting discussion. I've never watched any of that guy's videos before.
>>77575968
Ok, I can finally ask this question.
Was it just me, or was this episode's color saturation completely off compared to all the others?
>>77580904
THE LINE HAS ALREADY BEEN CROSSED.or not I don't care much about him either
>>77580459
jellyfish jam is worse. its just a dance montage
>>77580912

>>77580895

>I got a letter

All the good moments are at the beginning. Once Patrick's "parents" show up, it goes to shit.
>>77575968
Hi Mr. Enter!
>>77581574
Ehhhh maybe. I wouldn't go that far, only because my family still says "MARTY, I'M SCARED" at shit. But that might be a personal thing.
>Doing time hasn't been posted yet
>>77581242
I'd go with:
1. Band Geeks
2. Idiot Box
3. Shanghaeid
Those are probably my favorite. As for my least favorite, I'd have to say Plankton's Army.
>>77581242

I don't hate them, you idiot. I just don't think they're as good as the other pre-movie episodes. Not all of them are perfect gold crusted gems.
literally can't think of a pre-movie episode i dislike
i rewatched this show recently to see how much of it stacks up 10 years later and it all does, pretty much

>>77581810
Because it's not that good.
You could tell they were trying to keep up with Courage and Zim in terms of following the middle school darkness trend of the 00's with this one. Super weird, super out of line. That, and the one tied to it, "Welcome to the Chumbucket." Whoever storyboarded that entire ep was clearly a try-hard.
>>77579561
Absolutely not, Krusty Towers is a decent ep but it still has the same 2 thropes they've played out post-movie.

Why. Why would you reference reddit in that post. It's just an opinion you disagree with, it has nothing to do with reddit in any way. Not everyone who holds a different opinion is a retard from reddit. Stop with this horribly irrational fear of reddit, they're not all coming here to ruin the board, that's just other shitposters from here.

Hey guys.
I bring news.
Spongebob Squarepants was never a good show.
I was there for the premiere. I was a kid at the time. It wasn't funny. But it took off all the same. In a way that Rocko's Modern Life, nor Rugrats, ever did.
How can you bad tastes be accounted for?
>>77587598
it was voted best episode in that top 10 nick marathon back in like '06

>Sandy's Rocket
thank you, I was having trouble remembering what this one was called
>>77576140
> Party Pooper Pants
I REALLY didn't get why would the police arrest Sponge just because they weren't invited to his party. One would argue that's because they thought he was breaking into someone else's house (re: the Pineapple), but Sponge did try to defend himself.
Which brings me to another thing...SpongeBob came back to his pineapple with his bunny cosume all battered and torn. Yikes.
I love Shanghaied because it was funny and creepy at the same time
Chocolate With Nuts
>>77590234
If you're not shitposting then go back and watch it. It's probably the most quotable show there is, the writers knew how to write all kinds of humor, and they did it excellently.
Also the premiere was shit. Help Wanted was basically an introduction to the characters, and Reef Blower had no dialogue in a show known for its dialogue.
It might not be quite as entertaining as an adult, but some of the jokes are so good they're basically timeless.
>>77578054
The lost episode set a standard for me of what to expect from special episodes. It was probably just because I has to force my parents to let me stay up late to watch the episodes but I was dissapointed every time.
>>77590345WHAT? WHAT'D HE SAY?

>>77590413
Why?!
The red mist is coming!
>>77590415
Just One Bite was good, its just a shame they cut the gasoline scene out.
>>77583758
These apply to many pre-movie episodes, though.
>>77578054
christ the lost episode was just so boring and the songs were bad
>>77580976
Probably because it was the early years of digital animation or whatever. By S3 they figured it out.
