SpongeBob Squarepants is a childhood icon and an almost perfect tv series. Though just like every other tv show out there (besides Breaking Bad) there are some straight up awful episodes. Here is the list:
1. A Pal for Garry
This season 7 episode in which SpongeBob adopts a new friend for Gary is horrible. Throughout this episode SpongeBob acts out of character and treats Gary like dirt, to put the needs of a literal monster over his own pet. It’s not even funny, you just end up feeling bad for Gary the whole time.
2. The Splinter
Does anyone know what the writers of SpongeBob were think when they wrote this episode. In this season 6 episode SpongeBob gets a splinter and his friends try to help him remove it. There is only one word that could describe this episode, GROSS! There is so much nasty close up shots of the splinter, the worst part as the episode keeps going the more disgusting the situations gets. Patrick is also insufferably dumb this episode, could be rewarded for the dumbest doctor ever.
3. Stuck in the wringer
There are no words that can describe my hatred for this episode as a child. In this season 5 episode SpongeBob gets stuck in the wringer, and Patrick decides to help by putting SUPER GLUE to make it stuck forever. I’m not joking thats how dumb Patrick is in this episode, and it gets worse as the episode goes on, with Patrick just being an jerk for no reason! Yes, this truly is an infuriating watch.
4. Big Sister Sam
Another episode i truly despised as a child. This season 7 episode consists of Patrick’s sister Sam coming over for a visit. Patrick and his sister are horrible in this episode they annoy SpongeBob and Squidward, by destroying their houses and being obnoxious. Once again SpongeBob and Squidward didn’t deserve this treatment. Another poor excuse for an episode, Sam should never be brought back again for an episode.
5. Choir Boys
In this season 6 episode Squidward needs to go to the choir to singe with his group, and SpongeBob wants to come. SpongeBob is insufferable in this episode, he constantly is trying to ask Squidward if he can come to the choir and is constantly trying to show Squidward his vocal skills. Throughout the episode Squidward is essentially tortured by being electrocuted by jelly fish and in the end he was overshadowed by SpongeBob’s vocal skills. Squidward who does nothing wrong is once again paying this harsh price. Episodes like this make you wonder why do the writers make it so easy to despise SpongeBob, the titular character. Maybe they just want the show to end already.
