Most Underrated SpongeBob Episodes

One Coarse Meal

This episode plotwise was not a terrible episode. Its not a great episode, but its not a depressing, irritating, AND boring episode such as a Pal for Gary. As for Krabs tormenting Plankton, Plankton has enslaved an entire town, terrorist bombed the Krusty Krab, and delibrately injured many krusty Krab patrons who had no intentions of being put in the line of fire. At this point Krabs doing that could be called justice if this wasn't a kids show. And at the end Plankton does the exact same thing to Krabs that Krabs did to him. How is Krabs evil just because this episode mainly revolved around him?

I think this episode is more overhated than underrated. I believe that people overreact WAY too much to the suicide aspect of the plot. However, I don't believe the intention of the episode was to mock depressed/suicidal people. I believe this was meant to be a silly "Krabs gets back at Plankton" episode, that unfortunately made a few missteps in the story department. Overall? It's not a particularly good episode, especially from a comedic and writing standpoint. However, it does get too much hate.

House Fancy

"House Fancy" is the first episode of season 6 of the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants. In the episode, Squidward attempts to outdo his rival Squilliam by making his home look as luxurious as possible. SpongeBob joins in to help, with chaotic results.... read more

This should be number one. It's much better than the infuriating "One Course Meal". This episode is actually good except for one scene and even that scene was used to advance the plot and it wasn't useless at all. Unlike many people I didn't find this episode boring at all.

People only hate the episode for a 10 second scene that bears absolutely no relevance to the plot.
I personally found it funny, anyway.

So true, lots of enterbots hating on the page of a 10 second scene of an 11 MINUTE CARTOON, come on, it's NOT the splinter

SpongeBob, You're Fired!

I'm sorry, but this special has WAY too many problems to be considered "underrated" in my opinion. The biggest problem with this episode is it's pacing. The episode is only a half an hour long, but it REALLY should've only been 11 minutes. As such, each individual scene is dragged on FAR longer than it should. Another big problem with the episode is the fact that it steals concepts and plot elements from SEVERAL other episodes. SpongeBob has been fired on numerous occasions, yet this special treats it like it's a fresh idea (it isn't). The latter half of this episode blatantly rips off the plot of Season 4's "Le Big Switch" in that SpongeBob can only make Krabby Patties as opposed to other types of food. Now, if the episode had new joke ideas and interesting ideas to offer with these reused concepts, that would be great. Instead, what we get is a severely watered down version of several earlier episodes. Also, there are several plot holes and missing story elements in this episode. How were the restaurant vendors able to feed their customers with SpongeBob's food after they each threw SpongeBob's food on the floor? How can firing SpongeBob, who brings in a majority of the Krusty Krab's customers, save Mr. Krabs money? How does THAT save money, yet firing Squidward because he has seniority does not save money? The logic of this episode was clearly not thought through very well. Also, this episode prefers to TELL us how SpongeBob being gone was a disaster, as opposed to showing it. Granted, it's believable, but when previous episodes had SpongeBob away from the Krusty Krab, the writers actually SHOWED how his absence affects things at the Krusty Krab. Here? We get none of that. Overall, this episode was just a slow, unoriginal, uninspired, overly-long, waste of time. There aren't even very many good jokes! Patrick's mutated head is (kinda) funny, but otherwise, this episode was completely humorless. This is the most underrated episode? If you say so... read more

Face Freeze

The faces scared me and gave me nightmares.

Nah. This was an actual crap episode.

Little Yellow Book

Yes, I do think this episode is underrated, based on the criticisms of this episode. See, there are 2 sides to the criticism of this episode, the side that hates Squidward, and the side that likes Squidward. I'm going to focus on the side of liking Squidward. See, this side likes Squidward and finds this episode cathartic for seasons 6 and 7. My problem is that both sides hate this episode. THIS side hates the episode just for the hypocritical townspeople and Patrick. There's a weakness to this side of the criticism that hates this episode: Squidward ends up on top and Spongebob loses. You totally have the right of hating the townspeople, but that's just a few minutes long, and just know that Squidward ended up on top of the end. So yeah, people should like this episode more because Squidward wins. Yes, the Bikini Bottomies didn't get punished, but does that matter if Squidward wins? The criticism of this episode could've been like the episode Krabby Land, where Spongebob tortures himself and everyone enjoys it. So yeah. Have a good one :) ;) =).

The Great Patty Caper

Funny Pants

Probably not the strongest season 4 episode, but still pretty good. I thought it felt kind of like a season 1 episode (that's good, season 1 is my favorite season).

By the way here I am now I’m the one that said I love the ending, well I meant for pranks a lot I love the ending I hate the ending for things episode

Boating Buddies

I don't really understand why people hate this episode. Everything is so ridiculous and exaggerated that I can't really take it seriously (unlike A Pal for Gary or Summer Job). There's lots of funny gags ("SpongeBob and Squidward Best Boating Buddies forever! ", and that part where that tough guy beats up Squidward, for example) that I just can't help but enjoy this episode. I still liked its sister episode, The Krabby Kronicle, better, though.

Fungus Among Us

The Lost Mattress

Not just one of the best season 4 episodes, but one of the best all time episodes! I hate how people just dismiss post movie episodes from top lists

How many do you think there are pat uh ten

?

Good Neighbors

No, this episode deserves its hate.

Squidward gets a secrirty system to keep sp and pt out but they break it so it destroys bikini bottom for no reason and now squidward has to do commuitiy servies every sunday foever

?

Big Top Flop

Gullible Pants

Goo Goo Gas

I actually thought this episode was funny. Although Plankton being in Patrick's underwear was funny BUT GROSS at the same time. Other than that, the episode was still a little funny.

I hate the concept of turning adults into babies, but the implementation in this episode is very well done. The scene with Spongebob and Mr. Krabs beeing seniors is really funny too.

Very underrated. I forgot this episode because I hadn't saw it in a while.

The Bad Guy Club For Villains

Ink Lemonade

Demolition Doofus

Mrs. Puff was an evil sadistic attempted murderer in this episode.

Toy Store of Doom

This episode is actually underrated! A lot of people say that the stupidity of Spongebob and Patrick is unbelievable but it’s honestly one of the only times their blatant stupidity in seasons 6-8 is ACTUALLY funny.

It's not as bad as people say.
It's a pretty bad episode, but it's not offensively bad.

Love this episode so underrated

Wet Painters

Honestly I Don't Think This Episode Is Underrated While It May Not Aper On Best Lists As much As Band Geeks, Chocolate With Nuts Or Sailor Mouth It Still Gets Just Ad moat Of Praise To Keep It From Being Underrated

An absolute classic! Should be in the top 20 of all time!

This is a really iconic episode what is it here for?
