34a. Welcome to the Chum Bucket

[Honest Slug]

Needs more attention.

A lot of good gags, a solid plot and even a fantastic song, a wonderful episode. 9.5/10

 

[Alex Squarepants]

I like this episode, I like the musical number in this episode too.

9/10

 

[Baloo]

Pretty good episode. Plankton, like always, is great, the plot is good for a Spongebob episode, and my favorite part is definitely the song. One of the most underrated Spongebob songs.

9/10

 

[Jack M Crazyfish]

The song is one of the main reasons it's one of my favourite season 2 episodes
9/10

 

[SquiddlyPie]

This was my favourite when I was little, mainly because of the song but I was so emotional with this...I used to prefer emotional than humorous episodes....still love it ..10/10

 

[Jack M Crazyfish]

Another heartfelt and emotional episode, This Grill is Not a Home is definitely one of my favourite SpongeBob songs and it's one of the main reasons I love this episode aside from funny jokes and heartfelt plot.

10/10

Welcome to the Chum Bucket:
SpongeBob must work for Plankton after a card game between Krabs and the evil green bean. With nothing else to do, he must deal with working in a new frycooking fashion. This episode is very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very mean to SpongeBob.
1.7/10

 

[IAmAGoofyGoober2004]

A touching episode with a happy ending and beautiful visuals (except that chum burger that SpongeBob had made) and audio, especially This Grill Is Not a Home! Title card music is Oyster Girls, instant plus on my book! 10/10

 

[Ice Dripping]

A great episode, it shows that Mr. Krabs really cares about Spongebob and that he isn't just a way to make money to him. It also had some really funny moments and the song was great. 9/10

 

[TheGreatServer]

I was literally only an inch away from giving this episode a perfect score, There was a little bit of filler at the beginning, but man is the rest so good, The song is amazing, the plot is awesome, and the jokes are good.

9.5/10

 

[Squidy]

A GOLDEN episode is a GOLDEN episode. Where it gets a 11/10. It's just a great episode, it's just so good! Yeah that's me trying to sing it :/. Yeah it's a amazing episode.

I feel like some more jokes might've hurt the overall mood of it, I think it's perfectly funny enough, and serious enough to make a really great episode.

 

[Combusto82]

it was ok 7/10

 

[Sara SquarePants]

Am I the ONLY one who thinks "This Grill is not a Home" sounds like a love song between SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs?

It felt out-of-place in a show like this IMHO

 

[MimicMadness]

THIS GRILL IS NOT A HOME!

 

[JoeyBoi]

I actually really really like this one. The plot is great; slightly emotional and the episode is pretty funny too. I love seeing Spongebob and Plankton interact and Spongebob getting all sassy. I'm always a big fan of seeing Spongebob portrayed like this. Great episode.

Great episode (9/10)

9/10

I like this one a lot. I love the jokes, the plot is nice, but the real highlight is the song. It's heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time, and is my second favorite song in the series, right behind Gary Come Home. It shows that Mr. Krabs cares for SpongeBob, and doesn't just see him as a money-machine. Other than that, it's a pretty good episode. Not the absolute best, but it is what it is.
