Do you guys think any episodes that were 11 minutes should have been more developed as 22 minute specials? I personally think Welcome to the Chumbucket should've been a 22 minute special, so what do you guys think?
...whoa. I literally had the same episode in mind when I first got notified of this topic. I was thinking that the plot would've been fun to explore if there was perhaps a nice little montage scene that comedically shows the passage of time as well as SpongeBob's dedication to waiting for the product; the way in which the episode does it is kinda meh, from what I can remember. I believe this episode was inspired by the Special Delivery story which is where I got the idea from. (but, hey, the toy in the episode is better than the one in the book...)EmployeeAMillion said:Waiting. No joke, there should’ve been more to it, at least enough to justify its existence.
Most shows don't have special episodes in their first seasonLARRY22 said:SB-129. Seriously, That plot is very unique from the rest of Season 1, even the rest of the show for that matter. If the episode was twenty-two minutes instead of eleven, that ending where Squidward sees SpongeBob and Patrick again will be even more worth it. Also, that episode was the last one to air in 1999. It even aired on the very last day of December, 12/31/99, and that makes it even more specialMost
What about if it were a Tv movie?SB-129. Seriously, That plot is very unique from the rest of Season 1, even the rest of the show for that matter.

Also Squilliam being either primal, or chased around by a primal Squidward to being saved by Sandy then working with her would've made it fun too.Feral Friends and Back to the Past. Feral Friends could have shown more characters getting transformed into primal state like Bubble Bass, Plankton (it WAS in the rough storyboard though), pretty much all of the show's other incidental fish (we could actually learn what sea creatures they are based off of as well) rather than a select few

Oh yeah, I forgot :P I feel like they didn't make any 22+ minute episodes in Season 1 because it would take too long to paint everything and animate due to the cel-animation.Most shows don't have special episodes in their first season
He could also run into Squilliam the...what ever number his descendant would be,That would be even cooler! Squidward would go on many adventures, there would be more events (It would be really cool to see SpongeBob and Patrick's younger and older selves, not just the past and future incarnations of themselves).
