So I'd this is probably the final meh/okay episode. Yeah so this special is very interesting, to spice things up a bit lets start with the Patchy segments shall we. So Patchy's segments in this episode are phenomenal they really do mock that Patchy is some cheesy actor dressed up as a pirate that you usually get on kids shows and it's adapted really well in this episode. Basically Patchy finds out there is a "Lost Episode" of SpongeBob SquarePants and he tries to find out by using his map which leads him to to a children's playground which leads to some pretty cheesy action scenes which are hysterically funny, like even the kids think Patchy is a loser it's that funny. When they get back to his house they put on the episode which gives us the worst part of his segments...The Walk Cycle. There was no point for this walk cycle to be here it was incredibly long, boring and just one minute of filler. All SpongeBob does is change his facial expression and walk weirdly it's not funny and painfully long. Anyways after this the episode breaks and Patchy gets upset that SpongeBob betrayed him, but right afterwards the episode starts working...
Which leads us to the SpongeBob segments, so the SpongeBob segments were a lot worse than the Patchy Segments. They were not bad by any means but they weren't that good. It does have some good points, I enjoyed the songs, SpongeBob was likeable here, it has a really nice message at the end and it shows that if you chase your dreams hard enough they'll eventually come true but that's not what the townspeople seem to think, Yes now it's time for me to talk about why this episode is so controversial...The Bikini Bottomites. Yes they were horrible in this episode, constantly mocking SpongeBob for trying to pursue his dreams is really mean-spirited and unfair because there's nothing wrong with that. You should feel proud that someone's actually trying to accomplish something in their lives because they're so dedicated to it, OH and that line "We all had dreams, what makes you so special?" is one of the most frustrating, mean-spirited and horrible lines of the entire show, yes I'm being serious that line alone brought this episode down for me as well as the other Bikini Bottomites. Honestly if they weren't there this would actually be drastically higher but because they were there it stays at 31. Honestly if the Patchy Segments weren't super-good like they were here, this episode would probably be my least favourite episode of the season.
