What jokes or punchlines from SpongeBob are most underrated for you?

[Amphitrite]

The balloon Squidward scene in "The Play's the Thing". The mailman running out screaming gets me every time.

"Is mayonnaise an instrument?"

"CHOCOLATE!"

I think he meant it ironically or something.

That reminds me:

The "irony" jokes in Plankton's Regular

 

[daud2001]

"Run, Mr. Krabs. Patrick is digging gold"

"I like throwing food"

 

[The Real Nostalgia Critic]

"The power within" in Ghost Host goes sooooooooooo unnoticed.

 

[BabySmitty]

I like that one scene (can't remember the ep) when Patrick says "Are you going to listen to a big dummy, or are you going to listen to me?" And Spongebob looks kind of nervous and hesitant and he quietly says "Uh..." He's not sure how to respond to that.

I also love a great deal of Spongebob's dialogue in "Employee of the Month." It was really interesting to see a vindictave, canniving side to him. It showed that underneath his friendly, cuddly exterior, he can be just as snarky, sarcastic, and hot-blooded as Squidward, if not more so.

"Somebody keeps stealing my ideas."
"Well, I thought it was a pretty good idea."

It's "Hooky", season 1.

This little scene, along with some celebrities' cameos, is the episode's saving throw. The director pointing wildly made me burst into laughter.

SUPER AMAZING FUN FACT: The guy behind the camera is GREGG TURKINGTON from On Cinema fame!!! (I'm serious, you can look it up on IMDB or check the credits.)

"You bottom feeders! You don't even know talent!"
"No talent! No talent! No talent!"

Get it?

PATCHY PATCHY PATCHY. Patchy in general. He cracks me up.

• "OOOOOOH scurvy ain't for the likes of me! Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho-"
• "Three bells? We all know what three bells means!"/"Free ice cream!"/"Noooo, you silly livers. [laughing] NO!"
• "That's it? That's the lost episode? That was just a bunch of cheap walk cycles!"
• Patchy getting stuck in the fake dinosaur and falling over.
• Deliberate bad continuity.
• Any scene where you can see cameramen, equipment, Potty's puppeteer etc.

 

[Diet Dr. Kelp]

The Davy Jones's locker joke from Spongebob vs The big one.

 

[Noah Spongy]

Your potty has a shocky thing in it.

 

[Diet Dr. Kelp]

Do you think she knows how to sing the Muffin Man?

 

[hfjs]

I always thought my name sake was underrated

 

[J-444]

I'd say the name plate gag from "Ms. Puff, You're Fired!"
(When Ms. Puff is fired, her name plate is smashed. At the end, Spongebob actually glues all 83 pieces together. It does fall again, but still.)

A second would be the gag in the Patchy segments of Spongebob B.C. where the robot is continuously zapping the caveman in the butt, and we cut to Potty's score counter rising just as continuously.

Third: "I've got to put on my teeth and brush my pants!" as well as Patrick trying to urge the food out of the can (Okay, breakfast, get on the plate!) (both Rise and Shine)

Fifth and last: Let's go to the transcript.

Squidward: I am perfectly... (Patrick throws a snowball at Squidward)
Spongebob: Exposed.

By the way,

"Somebody keeps stealing my ideas."
"Well, I thought it was a pretty good idea."

("Chimps Ahoy")
