Bubble Buddy Returns, uh, I'll give it credit for being one of the rare times an episode actually has full-blown continuity, but besides that there isn't much to offer besides the same old joke about Shiny being a brat and trying to kill himself with sharp objects, and that's pretty much it. The Way of the Sponge, however, is excellent and criminally underrated. I really love the homage to movies like The Karate Kid and Rocky, I really love that there's a new character that can present new challanges, and even if he is cruel to him, he gets a funny payback played off by SpongeBob doing what he does well and understands his wrong, allowing our main characters to accomplish thier goal. I really laughed consistently throughout it, from the thought that Sandy's in danger, to the deconstruction of the "working all night" trope, to forgetting that Fuzzy can't breathe (It's funny here because he did it to himself and it goes quickly, unlike it's sister). So, yeah, probably my second favorite of the season.
