I was just watching an older Spongebob episode- not “classic” old, but several years.  It was the Kelp Shake episode, and while in the middle of viewing all of these new mediocre SB episodes, it reminded me of what makes a good Spongebob episode good, and not just fair. It’s a Plankton episode, but that’s okay.  I do like some of them. Now what makes this episode good? The difference, first off, is the interesting [...]

As you guys know, I review all new Spongebob episodes.  I already did To Squarepants or Not to Squarepants, and I am going to do Chum Caverns later tonight.  But as you know, 10 new episodes were shown tonight.  I have a job and alife, and do not have time to watch and review all of them now.  But I will do 2 a day this week, so all the reviews will be up by [...]

See my review of the first episode: To Squarepants or Not to Squarepants  here. As all of my loyal fans know, I have been severely disappointed with the newer SB episodes.  Just look at my scathing reviews of several of the last episodes, as well my article describing my general disappointment, and you’ll see how critical I have been But here comes the tenth anniversary celebration, and in addition to counting down the ten fan-favorite [...]

Another excellent newer (but not new) SB episode.  Several laugh out loud moments, including:  1) when SB and Patrick are sitting in the car, reading all of the weapons on the dash, and they hit the self destruct  2) after the car self destructs, SB’s face is all messed up and Patrick’s face is gone 3) at the end, when they are tearing each others costumes off, SB tears off Squidward’s face 4) when Krabs starts [...]

Watching Rule of Dumb, where Patrick learns he is king.  Excellent episode, showing ho absolute power, even imaginary, can corrupt, even the dumbest of creatures.  He steals food and comic books and a baby’s pacifier and tries to have Squidward’s house to build his own ferris wheel.  He asks whether he should hang his TV over the swimming pool or Faberge eggs. And when he sees the monster that he has become in the mirror at the [...]

There was a time, once upon a time, long, long ago, when my heart started beating a little faster upon hearing that new SB episodes were on their way.  Like 2 or 3 years ago.  Since then, alas, I am much less excited than I used to be.  because, as you all well know, the last several season’s of new episodes have been, in short, bad.  I won’t beat around the bush, here.  Not just [...]
