Many of the SpongeBob episodes from seasons 6-9a were my least favorite episodes and I despised them for years; episodes like Cephalopod Lodge, The Splinter, Sun Bleached, Choir Boys, Stuck in the Wringer, One Coarse Meal, Someone’s in the Kitchen with Sandy, A Pal for Gary, Sponge-Cano, Pet Sitter Pat, Demolition Doofus, Are You Happy Now, Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom, Little Yellow Book, and SpongeBob You’re Fired are the ones in particular I very much disliked. Nowadays, I still don’t like these episodes, but I kind of mellowed out on them. When I was younger, I couldn’t stand the sight of these episodes or I didn’t even want to think about them. While I’m not a fan of them today, I will say that even episodes like those had some scenes that were not necessarily that bad. I still consider seasons 6-9a the weakest era of SpongeBob but if you forced me to watch a marathon of the episodes from that era, I won’t mind taking on the challenge.
