Additional Comments:
Season 2 is, in my opinion, SpongeBob SquarePants's second best season (season 3 is the best, so I'm very excited for January). The show really comes into itself this season, giving us banger after banger. The jokes are at some of their best, and episodes are fast-paced. However, this season does have more duds than season 1, and I think that is because the team behind the show took more risks with their stories than they did in season 1. Nothing to the level of later seasons, but this season definitely tries to do more than season 1 did, and I can never fault writers for being adventurous (one of the reasons why I like the modern seasons so much). There's a variety of episode structures this season as well as episode topics. You can tell that this is before Plankton (and Karen) becomes a main character though, because he appears very few times in this season, much less than I expected, in any case (he only appears 3 times! that's crazy).
But seriously, this season is amazing. Trying to pick my top 5 was very hard. 4 different episodes were competing in my head for the last 2 spots on that list, if I want to put a number to things. The bottom 5 was easy though.
