I firmly, wholeheartedly believe that Band Geeks is objectively

And I disagree with your belief though absolutely acknowledge the episode as one of Spongebob's greatest.

You're not wrong nigga

Close but no cigar

>>89754601
I whole heartedly agree. But there are a lot of close runners. It's sorta amazing how early SpongeBob ages like fine wine. I somehow appreciate the humor more than when I was a kid.

>>89754601
That's not how you spell SB-129

It was my favorite as a kid, but now its def the one where they work on his ship. Shit is the funniest episode of the series imo.

I thought he meant the one whith Mr. Krabs' dad or grandpa or some shit at first too, but I think he's referring to Shanghai'd, which is top-tier.

>>89757873
Not him but, Fear of the Krabby Patty, Wishing Well, and Mermaid and Barnacle Boy VI all were in season 4 and had good amount of funny jokes especially the Fear of the Krabby Patty one.

>no Idiot Box
>no Grandma's Kisses

Both fine Spongekino

>>89754601

Taste is subjective, but if we were to ask the majority, I have little doubt it'd be considered the best episode.

>>89759019
Between this and the KND episode where they play fucking GWAR I have to wonder why kids cartoons stopped using metal music for gags and shit, it's fucking hilarious every time.

>>89757873
Are you fucking retarded

>>89754601
The first half on Snowball Effect is the best in the series. Hard to say what the best overall episode is.

>>89760860
fair enough, this is why specifics are good thing

>>89760908
>Fear of the Krabby Patty
>Wishing Well
>Mermaid and Barnacle Boy VI

was the Mermaid Man episode about them being movie stars, if that's the case then no
>"ECKS DEE DID SOMEBODY SAY BOOM LAW!?!?!?!?"

Wishing Well was meh

and Fear of a Krabby Patty is downright dogshit, not to mention, that fucking artstyle

It really wasn't. People only rate it so high because of the ending. But there were plenty of episodes with better humor and storytelling even in Season 1.

"Pizza Delivery" is clearly the best

Just the sheer absurdity that the Krusty Krab would deliver pizza despite being a hamburger-centric restaurant is a concept unrivaled in its hilarity

Second place I would say goes to "Rock Bottom"

Is premovie Spongebob honest to god the greatest, most consistent run of a cartoon ever?

I've been thinking about it a lot lately considering how heavily the show is referenced. What about it makes it so great? How did the crew do it?

They made a good cast of characters and set them in a situation that made things hilarious on premise alone.

They just knew what they were doing. Hillenburg's vision was good.

After the movie, they had changed enough people around and kept it going after the planned ending, so they ran with the characters and took the traits that could be best (Spongebob's naiveness, Patrick's moments of idiocy, Sandy's being smart, Krabs being greedy, ect) and ran with those good parts until they became the only parts of the character they knew. Escalation in a bad way.

Favourite part has to be the Dutchman having to deal with Spongebob's and Patrick's incompetency in scaring Bikini Bottom citizens.

I remember laughing my ass off at the "avalanche" when I first saw this episode, and "championship boxing" is still one of the show's best gags.

Okay, definitely not the best episode overall, but probably the best special.
Yes, it's post-movie, shut the fuck up.
It's the closest Spongebob ever got to telling an actual coherent story (I know it's not the style of the show, but it still was nice to see something like that)

>>89765441
got any proof to back that claim up?
