Who else is surprised that little yellow book didn’t make the cut? Squidward had no business taking SpongeBob’s diary and spilling his secrets out loud in the Krusty Krab.

Early SpongeBob was a real masterpiece, RIP Stephen Hillenburg, thank you for making my childhood happier

You forgot “Squid Baby”. Also, you forgot to mention how unfair it was to treat SpongeBob like the bad guy in “Stuck in the Wringer” when it was all Patrick’s fault and how depressing it was to see Sandy humiliated and handcuffed for trying to get her pelt back in “Someone’s in the Kitchen With Sandy”.

These episodes wouldn't be most-hated if they easily done these:
One Course Meal- remove Plankton's suicide and Mr. Krabs only scaring Plankton whenever he goes inside The Krusty Krab

A Pal for Gary- SpongeBob apologize to Gary after seeing Monster Puffy Fluffy (heck, I wouldn't mind that instead of apologizing to Gary, Puffy Fluffy ate SpongeBob and ran away. Then Gary had the whole house to himself)

Pet Sitter Pat- remove the scene of Patrick using a flamethrower and mentioned that he couldn't find any salt

Demolition Doofus- SpongeBob's prize for winning the contest being a new organ for Mrs. Puff to inflate again with Mrs. Puff thanking him instead of using a monster truck. I know people hated that she wanted him dead, but remember the scene where SpongeBob laughed at her deflation instead of apologizing? Plus, you wouldn't want revenge on someone who sent you to the hospital and prison for thousands of times with SpongeBob not apologizing nor paying for your hospital bill and bail money?

What about Yours mine and mine
Patrick was such a selfish asshole in that episode

[waheedabdullah]

I get why people hated Demolition Doofus, but I had mixed feelings on that episode.

This is the same sponge who puts Mrs. Puff in the hospital and prison tons of times without apologizing to her or paying for her hospital bill and bail money. Heck, SpongeBob was even laughing at her deflation and brought her flowers that she's allergic to earlier in the episode. So you wouldn't do the same thing to the person you despise for years if all of that happened to you?

It's Nickelodeon's longest running animated series... but it's not without some clunkers.

[AlexanderBrior]

Fun fact, the voice actors have outright stated that they dislike One Coarse Meal, especially Clancy Brown

[Nik-tkew]

We all can agree that most bad episodes are the one where the main characters are being intentionally or unintentionally complete jerks to others or humiliated without any reason.

[joshuamohlman]

Mr. Krabs firing Soongebob is probably the biggest BRUH moment I’ve seen from Mr. Krabs in this show

[malakaithedemigod]

I loved all the episodes, except one….the infamous toe nail one where SpongeBob drops the couch on squidwards foot…I don’t need to go in any further details 😂

[Jeremiah_Rivers]

SpongeBob needs serious help after not seeing Puffy-Fluffy for who he was after “A Pal for Gary.”

[lucasgoad]

I think you nailed the top 3, personally I didn't mind House fancy as much as others and I actually think Atlantis Squarepantis, while not a good episode, is a little over hated imo.

[alfienaylor]

20: I didn’t mind it too much.

19: A bit after my time, but I’ve seen a lot of criticism on it.

18: A bit dull and childish.

17: What were the writers smoking when they came up with this one?

16: Never managed to see it, but seems very weird.

15: It was OK.

14: I just don’t understand this one.

13: As someone who likes to enjoy his music in peace, I really sympathised with Squidward here.

12: I remember watching clips from this episode in a promo with no context, and I thought Plankton had done something way more sinister to Sandy.

11: Never seen this one, but a bit psychotic even by Mrs Puff’s standards.

10: This was the definition of Squidward torture and SpongeBob’s obsession with him.

9: Never seen it, but shows obnoxious Patrick at his worst.

8: Never seen it, never cared for it.

7: WHAT IS THIS??!!!

6: I have no words.

5: Hated it.

4: This started interesting and I liked seeing inside Squilliam’s house, but it soon got weird and disturbing.

3: I hated this one.

2: And that was when we learned no one has a brain cell in Bikini Bottom.

1: It’s grim but I wouldn’t call it the worst.

I’m surprised The Card isn’t on here. That’s the one that infuriated me the most.

Despite all these *ahem* setbacks, SpongeBob still reigns as one of the greatest cartoon shows of all time.

Friendly reminder: this show will celebrate its 25th anniversary this May

The classic SpongeBob seasons have people’s least favorite episodes too like “I’m with Stupid” and “Grandma’s Kisses” but these later episodes on this list now makes them masterpieces.
