The 10 Most Hated Spongebob Episodes 

I think it's because Ink Lemonade has made an appearance in his worst spongebob videos numerous times, and he wanted to bring variety. But as the video claims, these episodes are rated by other people. So for some reason... Ink Lemonade isn't even in them, not even the Scumbob site.

And let's not forget the surreal horror atmosphere that doesn't match the cheery, tropical tone of Spongebob.

Imo ink lemonade is the worst SpongeBob episode

@@askewlewyyy2594 I can highly agree

And also Pet Sitter Pat

it may be a bit less entertaining but overall it's probably for the best

i kinda missed when he overexaggerates it was funny to watch

Yep.

It sure has been one wild ride.

I don't ever remember him ranting. When he rants it come off as calm

Plus Gary actually gets revenge on Puffy Fluffy at the end. Krabs suffers practically no retribution for his antics.

Well he did also get scared when his fear was revealed to be mimes but that's still not a good enough punishment. Dude should be in jail for essentially assisted suicide.

The entire cast hated that episode, Krabs' voice actor even said that he felt uncomfortable reading some of the lines for the episode.

This is why Spongebob was awesome, more kids shows should hold nothing back. Kids can absolutely take it.

Ironically enough, I think that "Are You Happy Now?" handled themes of depression better than One Coarse Meal (though that's not really a high bar).

it's mean spirited, but funny as fuck. i was pissed off too when i first saw it as a kid, but that's the exact point. to show that patrick can be an arrogant dumbass. the "dumb people don't realize how dumb they truly are" from PATRICK was peak comedy.

Yeah I had no problem with it because Patrick had the motive to be a jerk to impress his (fake) parents, not just being a jerk for the hell of it. Same with Dumped, because Patrick enjoyed Gary a bunch (and was the butt of the joke at the end).

@@japansfloridaman2466 I still didn't like how Spongebob got treated by Patrick in I'm With Stupid - understandable but I always felt off by it. Dumped, on the other hand, felt better because Patrick really WAS having fun and playing with Gary while Spongebob tried to get his snail back. He was so into it that he did become a bit of a jerk since he figured Gary liked him more than Spongebob, but hey, the end joke worked well there!

SpongeBob was butchered there terribly so I don't forgive the episode

The Patrick Star Show contradicted this.

cotton candy

@@gamegod6859 Ok, close enough

@@gamegod6859 damn, he got me. can't really argue with that

I skip this episode every time it comes on😭

One of the fish says to Spongebob something like: Maybe the problem is YOUR heart Even as a kid I was like: Bruh 🗿

And I'm glad that era is already over now.

Me to

I can imagine how would Hop Pop feel after watching these episodes for himself. Similarly, I can say the same with Yukari "Yukatan" Takeba too.

face freeze is a classic

and thank God SpongeBob didn't end up like Season 6 to 9A after Stephen Hillenberg passed away. Rest in peace mate. The Paul Tibbit era today is way more different than the show's dark age (also under Tibbit).

Pica, perhaps?

@PopcornPie maybe. I've heard bits about Pica, but the fact he went out of his way to search for Spongebob's sea monkeys for the sole purpose of devouring them and the only "explanation" we get is him getting sassy when he gets caught is off-putting

Tarrare-core

To paraphrase Mr. Enter, "Modern Patrick isn't dumb. He's malicious. "

I literally remember watching that episode when I was 8-9 years old, and even as a dumb kid, it genuinely made my blood boil

I 100% agree with your comment

That makes even less sense.

@@nateobrien354 fair

Mabye they were saying 'act' or 'attitude' instead of 'butt'. That would make more sense.

@@ultracraft222 nah they definitely said butt. that can also mean "attitude" tho

I remember seeing that and thinking it was weird too

I'm personally more bothered by the fact that he attempted to consume what are, essentially, Bikini Bottom's stand in for puppies. I mean, I know they're not exactly cute, but that idea still rubs me the wrong way.

@@newbiegamelover4767 It is kinda messed up

Gee, I hope someone got fired for that blunder

We can just assume that episode took place before he knew SpongeBob

Yeah, if anything, they just made Spongebob more unlikeable, that I can't blame Squidward for why he hates being around him so much.

Yeah

i 100% agree, and that honestly sounds like a great Spongebob episode. i never understood the constant need to torture Squidward, like, yeah, he's a bit of a grump, but he's a grump for a reason; because he's constantly being treated like some sort of punching bag, for seemingly no reason.

Yeah, or like SpongeBob does something that at first Squidward gets really mad about, thinking that SpongeBob just ruined his night, but then whatever SpongeBob did actually leads to Squidward having a really good time and even getting to meet or play with Kelpie G (or whatever the dude's name was) I think the only time that the "Squidward suffering" trope works is when Squidward himself causes it by being a jerk or having a big head

i'm shocked there was no mention of 'squid baby' at all in the dishonorable mentions, that shit made me so uncomfortable as a kid and to this day it makes my stomach churn from just any mention of it. it makes me wonder if someone in the studio had a barely disguised fetish when writing the episode. that episode and 'License to Milkshake' are by far my least favorite episodes imo, just beyond unwatchable and just plain wrong, eugh.. i'd rather watch atlantis squarepantis than see those episodes ever again X~X

You pretty much stated the reason I don't ever talk about Squid Baby 🙂 I don't like to talk about the episode because I have no wish to fetish-shame or to encourage disgust in people's personal fetishes. And due to the confrontational nature of the episode, that's exactly what that episode inspires. As you said, my friend Jem already reviewed it very well so I tend to just give the episode some privacy 😄 Hope that makes sense.

Not to mention how there’s a somewhat offensive tinge to it when you remember that the plot started with a head injury. At least Whobob Whatpants’ plot starting with the injury made sense because it was, you know, amnesia. Meanwhile, Squid Baby is… well… Squid Baby. But I guess I can kinda understand Strider’s reasoning behind not including it. At the same time though, I can’t help but feel like there’s a sense of disrespect mixed into the stew of that rancid episode.

Squid Baby used to be my favorite lmaoo (I AM FAR PAST IT NOW)

Squid Baby is hands down my pick for the worst episode of SpongeBob SquarePants. It just makes me extremely uncomfortable throughout. Only A Pal For Gary and Fungus Among Us come close to that level of making me very uncomfortable as a viewer.

Yeah, I always thought that as well!

When Strider says that the animators had fun making this, something tells me that they were sadistic f*cks who thought that scarring children would be funny.

I don’t know what the animators were thinking when adding that scene. Do they want to give the kids nightmares or PTSD?

The exaggeration is impressive but it ends up overstaying its welcome from start to finish. But hey, at least we got some good memes based from that episode.

The face I thought was funny was Patrick looking like Majin Buu from DBZ.

it's one of those episodes you can only watch once and find it hilarious, after that it's just the same joke over and over again

The episode was actually decent for dark age modern spongebob standards the reason people hate is kind of a positive the faces spongebob and Patrick make are scary and disturbing but there also creative .

yeah that episode kinda suffers from the same problem I had with The Paper where it's mostly one-joke dragged out and beaten into the ground, I found it less bad then The Paper as nobody was blatantly out of character like in that episode and it had more laughs.

I think the bad part was only a small chunk of the episode. The rest of the episode maybe of bad quality, but certainly nothing groundbreakingly bad. Guess maybe competition just got too rowdy for thay episode to be included.

I'll be honest, I kind of like that episode. I've heard a lot of people didn't like it and I was kinda surprised about it since it used to be my favorite episode when I was younger. I think I liked it so much when I was younger because it gave me an eerie feeling especially when he was talking to the krabby patrick thing and I usually liked episodes that made me feel a certain emotion.

that episode made me genuinely so sad every time it came on lol

I honestly liked that one a lot when I was younger. It’s horrible when you think about it, but it is pretty funny

How was that episode bad?

I reckon Rocko's Modern Life did a better job at covering this addiction

And that one person telling people to "just not bite their nails" really irritates me. Yeah, I would love to stop biting my nails! But I can't help! It's an unconscious act! Hence why it's a bad habbit!

I think the Spongebob episode called "Hook" did covered the addiction way better. Made2Express made a video about it.

Nailbiter Part 2

Spongebob as a show has become nothing more than eye candy for fetishes. There's always gotta be some kind of fetish that ends up being seen on the internet that somehow finds its way into an episode.

I have a nail-biting habit too. I’ve had it ever since I was little. I bite my nails because I find it satisfying.

@@dyl_pickle16-mta48 Personally, this habit's kinda compulsive.

FINALLY! SOMEONE ACTUALLY HAS THE SAME LEAST FAVORITE EPISODE AS ME!

@@3psilon9 Yeah. The problem with that episode is that it's just mean from start to finish. When Squidward refuses to play with SpongeBob, he makes a puppet to entertain himself which ends up attracting positive recognition from the town. And that's pretty much where it all goes down hill because the rest of the episode just devolves into the town's people bullying and humiliating Squidward to the very end because they didn't think he was as good as the puppet (Even though SpongeBob's puppet was literally just copying Squidward). The whole premise is just stupid and Squidward endures the Karma Houdini trope all because he didn't indulge SpongeBob's annoying antics which seems to be a common theme for many bad episodes that focus on him.

yeah i never liked SquidWood.

Same here! That was probably the first Spongebob episode I ever really hated

@@sunettas9738 Yeah. To be honest, it has the same energy as the "Arnold Betrays Iggy" episode from "Hey Arnold". Both episodes end with the main character getting unjustly mocked by the town toward the end and it's just too hard to watch. Anytime that episode was broadcasted, I had to skip it.

Are You Happy Now? is just asking for the show to be dark.

I like that episode only one moment i don't like when SpongeBob got chases by Bikini Bottomites

That and I hated Old Man Jenkins. I hated pretty much everyone in the episode. How everyone only were nice to him because he did what they wanted him to do. When he had enough everyone chased him.

The end of the episode was good too! I actually cried from emotion watching it, when he starts singing the song- I guess I get emotional easily 😭

I hated that episode too and preferred the Patchy segments and walk cycles over the actual episode. However, one scene from said episode made me laugh. And that was one of the Tiny SpongeBob's trying to run away and escape the episode

I think that writer needs to seek some help.

I’M SORRY WHAT

I know what it is but I don't like talking about it.

richard pursel

Oh, that explains a LOT

House Fancy is one of my favorite episodes that came out after season 4 but I think that's an unpopular opinion.

I hope Strider was doing that breathing stuff for the Nitwit episode; THAT SALIVA SCENE HE MENTIONED.. E U G H.

you have good ideas

house fancy was good tbh

breath of fresh good

How did you not know that

Yea. I've been liking his videos about things other than cartoons but this is still cool

I think the episodes were more well-liked, but that was only because the bar was so low because of seasons 5-8. But in retrospect, many of the episodes are considered just mediocre, or even bad, although only some are considered extremely bad.

I honestly have no idea what happened to people's warmth for them 😆 There's some outright hilarious writing in later seasons. I love a ton of modern Spongebob episodes and wish they'd get more appreciation 😄 I mention some of my favourites in the credits actually.

@@phantomstrider It's like Steven Universe in a sense, when it was on, many people adored it but as the years went on, people seemed to hate it and think more poorly of the show. As for Modern SpongeBob, I do have complicated feelings towards it. I like the creativity and the ambition that a lot of episodes have but I find many episodes to be too stupid for my taste. Other than that, your opinion is valid on modern SB.

I think Stephen Hillenburg's death played a major factor in that change. (I stopped watching the newer episodes religiously around fall 2018, but have come back to it a few times)

​@KingMe2002 That's how I feel too. I'm glad that the crew is trying new things with the show, but it's too exaggerated and silly for me to really get into it

Krabs and Patrick flanderization happens a lot.

Some say the same thing about South Park and Randy Marsh.

I suppose that's why Nickelodeon outsourced Patrick to the Patrick Star Show, as an attempt to make him seem likeable and an actual character instead of what he actually has become in Spongebob.

I really hate bad episodes of SpongeBob he is badly written and out of character.

@@KyleEvra Amen

i'm graduating in june, i'm happy about it. i understand u being anxious though

It hasn't been that long

you got this! waiting is hard but once you actually graduate i promise its all good :) youre almost there!

@@sonicsillies i agree

Just hearing about R&S makes me feel like puking I hate even the original so much(don't even get me STARTED on APC).

Fun Fact: A Pal for Gary was written by the same person who wrote Ren Seeks Help. Maybe that guy needs to seek some help.

That scene reminds me of that one episode of R&S where they drink skunk milk

Me too.

Same here.

Same🙈🙈 id bite other people's nails if I could

@@Jennithebaker same I only bite the hang nails not the finger nails .

To be fair, Patrick didn’t recognize his own parents until they unintentionally spilled the beans.

which one?

@@gamegod6859 Marty and Janet, from “I’m with Stupid”.

Like the following episode, Squiditis. Almost everyone can't remember it, due to remembering for its infamy the episode it's paired with: Demolition Doofus, which is one of the worst episodes of SpongeBob, EVER.

its such a shame where an otherwise decent episode gets its reputation ruined by an imfamously bad episode. I guess thats the cost of having 2 episodes per 30 minutes runtime@@diegodubber2140

They were literally responsible for that shitshow.

he hated the episode. attacking the writers might be unfathomable, but the reason should be apparent

He did apologize for doing so at least

Glad I unsubbed from him

@@rmn070 he literally hasn't done it after 2014 and he recently made a new SpongeBob list where he realized his past mistakes.

I actually don’t think the characters are uncharacteristic. SpongeBob accidentally makes mistakes, and it is reasonable for the characters to be angry with him, and SpongeBob thought that his friends would forever hate him, which is untrue

@@DORAisD34D Except they should be careful with harsh words when criticizing your loved ones. You would come off as a selfish, manipulative jerk for the start. In spite of pain, they just need to shut their mouths before they speak. (NEVER START A FLAME WAR UNLESS GO TO 4Chan instead.) SpongeBob didn’t mean any harm and besides, he could be underage than we think, as Hillenburg never specify what his real age.

Yep.

Go away Mr. Friendship!

Honestly, I've heard a lot of good things things about the recent seasons, but I just can't stand to watch them because I *despise* the animation. Don't get me wrong, I like exaggerated and expressive cartoons, but the new seasons are just... way too much. It feels so over the top and low-key disturbing. I wish I could enjoy all these episodes that people keep praising, but I just physically cannot watch anything past season 9

Really? Huh, neat

This is why's he's miles above several other review channels, who always come off as overly-judgemental, or just plain mean-spirited

I hate whatever happened to spongebob aka whobob whatpants, because this is the worst episodes in spongebob squarepants season 5, and also worse than 2020 because patrick, squidward, sandy, mr krabs, and gary called spongebob an idiot boy like jerks, and made spongebob leave his own home, and they never say something nice to spongebob.

@nilesclifford9704 to each their own. I just thought the reasoning behind it was so ridiculous that it ended up being funny. To start off, Patrick out of all of them calling someone an idiot was a good start. And we all know how Squidward feels about him, and the fact that Krabs got fried and he wasn't mad until the money got fried lol.
