Ah what the heck! I thought I'd fill this out and wait for y'all to throw tomatoes at me.

Favorite Character: Spongebob Squarepants
What's not to like? He's cute, sweet, creative, socially awkward, and musical!

Despised Character: "WHERE'S MY DRINK?"
The guy who made Spongebob cry in "Pizza Delivery." What a ::dolphin noise::ing dick.

Favorite Season: Season 1
This season seems so much more quiet than other seasons. The pacing is so much slower, the characters seemed a bit more innocent and happy, and... oh goodness, it's just so harmless and charming. I also love the wobbly, wiggly animation. There's not a malicious bone in this season's body.

Despised Season: Season 7
hate

Most Overrated Character: Squidward
Here me out here. A lot of people feel sorry for Squidward and hold him up as some kind of saint, much like Lemongrab in the Adventure Time fandom. Here's the thing- Squidward's misery for the most part is his own fault. He's arrogant, rude, unimaginative, pretentious, and self-pitying. He brings so much of his misery upon himself!

Most Underrated Character: Patrick Star
A lot of people really hate Patrick, but I'm very fond of him. I think I like Patrick more now as an adult than I did as a kid. I want to give him a big hug.

Favorite Villain: Bubble Bass
This guy is ::dolphin noise::ing hilarious! His voice, his design, his whole motivation of just "being a jerk." He makes me laugh incredibly hard in any scene he's in, which unfortunately isn't very many scenes. Man, we need another Bubble Bass episode.

Despised Villain: Kevin the Sea Cucumber
I know that we're not supposed to like him. He's so smug, and he's such a bully. I'm glad he got scalped.

Favorite Song: Living In The Sunlight
I feel like this upbeat, cute number personifies the series very well. I'll also pick the end credits theme song for the same reason.

Despised Song: Teamwork (Sponge out of Water)
I hated this movie so SO much. Hard to believe that it gave us such a bland, uninspired, derivative song.

Favorite Episode: Help Wanted
It's kind of rare that a show's pilot is so incredibly good- the Spongebob pilot is SO well-done that it airs in regular circulation along with the other episodes. It's short, charming, funny, and pretty inspiring to those who are seeking their dream job. Nothing makes you want to root for Spongebob in quite the same way.

I'm also extremely fond of "Bubblestand," "Dying for Pie," "Walking Small," and "Pizza Delivery."

Despised Episode: The Great Snail Race
Take away all of Spongebob's niceness and replace it with pure spitefulness, replace all of his love for his pet with apathy, and replace most of the charming humor for body horror and disgusting animal cruelty.

Favorite Quote: "I'M READY!!!"
Perfect.

Despised Quote: all of the bad jokes in "Sponge out of Water"
seriously, ::dolphin noise:: this movie and its stupid cringeworthy jokes.

Most Overrated Episode: Band Geeks
The animation is pretty stiff, Spongebob's entire character is an afterthought, and Squidward really doesn't do anything to deserve that happy ending. He spent two seasons being a condescending whiny doofus to everyone, and now he expects everyone to perform for him so he can one-up his high school rival? Really?

Most Underrated Episode: Employee of the Month
Spongebob is normally such a sweet, bumbling little guy. Seeing him turn into such a canniving, smug, calculating schemer is interesting, to say the least. I like the debate at the beginning between Spongebob and Squidward on whether or not the award is valid or not. I like seeing Spongebob's somewhat unhealthy perfectionist tendencies surface. This episode was a pretty interesting glimpse into his obsessive, unhealthily driven psyche. I like seeing Squidward and Spongebob completely lose it near the end due to sleep deprivation. I also really enjoyed all of the constant banter between Spongebob and Squidward. I always thought of Squidward as Spongebob's surrogate big brother, so to speak- and seeing an episode about their rivalry was unexpected. This episode is funny, at times thought-provoking, and it shows a very different side to Spongebob than we're used to.

...in the earlier season, nowadays he gets hurt for no reason.
People thought of Squidward like that before the post-movie episodes. It's kind of annoying how often people say "I relate more to Squidward the more I get older." Because Squidward is a self-pitying, cynical jerk. The world already has too many cynical adults.

This is maybe sound stupid, but this is why I like him. And because I like Squid Abuse.

Yeah, Squidward's role in the show since the start is to be the butt monkey. He's there to be miserable. I think him being arrogant and cynical is so people wouldn't feel bad of him being abused. But apparently a lot of people still doesn't understand his characterization.

His characterization has changed over the years. Now he's mostly shown as a normal guy and whenever he's hurt, it's for no reason and SB always comes across as as rather insensitive. And let's no even get into Choir Boys and Boating Buddies...

I was almost exclusively referring to pre-movie episodes.

And it's not like Squidward isn't NOT a jerk in new ones, too.

Band Geeks was the most shocking one here. I still like that ep, but i wouldn't consider it to be my all time fave. I never know what exactly you're gonna say next that will be completely different than what I'd expect you to say.

The two seasons shouldn't matter as this is one episode. He wanted to show Squilliam what for and expected the best out of everyone. Instead, they acted like idiots and fought for literally no reason whatsoever, making Squidward sad because he did expect the best from them, but they didn't show him anything at all.

And Squidward ain't a doofus, he's like one of the smartest characters of the series after Sandy.

I tend to use the word "doofus" as a placeholder word to mean several things, none of which are entirely pleasant.

I like it, too. In fact I REALLY like it. I was IN marching band when I was in high school, all of us knew all the words. But I think it's far from the best episode. If I had to pick a "best episode" I'd probably choose "Bubblestand," "Idiot Box," or "Pizza Delivery."

Well, they realized what they did was wrong and practiced hard to impress him.

The minute anyone starts quoting from TVTropes I will cease to take them seriously.

Also, he's still a jerk in new episodes. The writers just don't focus on it as much as they used to. But he's still a bad artist, he harbors immense self-pity, and he's always making snide, sarcastic remarks at people, to their faces or otherwise. He's not a nice person. No, he doesn't deserve to be physically tortured in the new episodes, but he's still a very unpleasant, ungrateful person.

True.

Geez, it's not like I hate Band Geeks. I love Band Geeks! I'm one of the doofuses who was maybe around 10 when that episode came out. I get a little squishy and sentimental when I hear "Sweet Victory."

I just think it's overrated, and it's not the best episode, as a lot of people unanimously say it is. And I don't think it's perfect.

I don't mind that you think it's overrated. Because, it IS. I was just telling Prez that things did go well for Squidward.


Oh, and this is to everybody:

OVERATED = / = BAD

YES. I definitely agree with this.

Example.... Is "Juno" an overrated movie? Yeah probably. Do I enjoy it any less? Absolutely not. lol

Um, yes. We should get a Bubble Bass Returns or something. I'd like to see him again.
As much as I hated "Sponge out of Water" I was happy to see him return.

BUBBLE BASS FANS FTW
