Topic: "Best Of" Season 4

[BiggerSquarierSpongier]

     This topic is to discuss the "Best" Episodes (I use the term very loosely) of Season 4. I know there are still 2 or 3 that haven't aired, but I'm doubting they'll score too highly on the best episode scale.

Here are some of my personal season 4 favorites:

Fear of a Krabby Patty
Skill Crane
Good Neighbors
Have You Seen This Snail?
Enemy-In-Law
SquidBob TentaclePants
Dunces and Dragons
Ghost Host
Bummer Vacation
The Thing
Driven to Tears
Rule of Dumb
The Gift of Gum

Yah... So out of 38 new episodes, I even remotely like 13... Not sayin' too much about the new writing crew.

Have You Seen This Snail?
Dunces and Dragons
Krusty Towers
Whale of a Birthday
Squidtastic Voyage
Driven To Tears

Not much...

[Elizabeth Rose]

Dunces and Dragons was pretty much the worst one ever....

Where's Gary was ok. Shell of a Man was ok too.

Yeah, a few haven't aired yet but I have the DVD, so I've seen all of it. I have to say, the last part of Season 4 was pretty good.

Shell of a Man
The Lost Matress
Krabs vs. Plankton
Have You Seen This Snail?
Krusty Towers
Wishing You Well (this and the one above it are my personal fav. Of the season)
Squidtastic Voyage
Best Day Ever
The Gift of Gum
Driven to Tears

(And the ones that haven't aired yet...)

Born to be Wild

So that's my best of. I thought Season 4 had some more creative plots, but lost the same feel and perfect jokes that Season 3 had. Also, did anyone find it weird for Nick to show Season 5 episodes before Season 4 was completely aired?

Fear of a Krabby Patty
Shell of a Man
Skill Crane
The Lost Mattress
Selling Out
Have You Seen This Snail?
Dunces and Dragons
Whale of a Birthday
Wishing You Well
New Leaf
Squidtastic Voyage
Bummer Vacation
Hocus Pocus
The Thing
Driven to Tears


I haven't seen the others yet that have aired. Been busy lately.

But I can say that the 30-minute single special episodes could've been much better.

The latter of season 4 has been surprisingly good. Beginning of season 4 is still good but there are more episodes lately that I like than when season 4 first started.

From other threads, my favorite 5 of season 4 are:

Krusty Towers
Driven to Tears
Wishing You Well
Chimps Ahoy
Mrs. Puff, You're Fired

As I had said in other places, these five episodes (especially Krusty Towers) most remind me of the brand of humor that made the other seasons (2 and 3 in particular) so good.

Episodes that come close:
Selling Out
Karate Island
Wigstruck
The Pink Purloiner

And Sponge-Bart highlighted something I was thinking about asking separately: Have they started airing season 5 yet?  According to wikipedia, they have.  I don't have cable TV so all the SB watching I do is on the DVDs.
