"Barnacle Face": When Pearl gets a barnacle on the side of her face, Mr. Krabs has SpongeBob help her get rid of it before the school dance. I can understand why some people didn't like this episode. In my opinion, Pearl's barnacles were a little gross but In my opinion, It was bearable. I didn't like that Mr Krabs didn't want to buy expensive creams and lotions to get rid of Pearl's barnacle and he said that he turns Krabby Patties into soaps. That proves that he was cheap in this episode but I didn't lower my score because SpongeBob covered up Pearl's barnacles with Mr. Krabs' jewels and Mr. Krabs deserved for being cheap. Some people said that Pearl was too annoying in this episode but I thought she wasn't too annoying much. My score is 9.5/10 because I got bored a little in this episode. This episode wasn't too funny much but there were some funny moments in this episode like Pearl screaming, SpongeBob said that he took Patrick to see hypnotist, SpongeBob smeeling a soap and SpongeBob covering up Pearl's barnacles with Mr. Krabs' jewel. This episode is not one of my favorite SpongeBob episodes but It was a great episode and Pearl's barnacles were bearable. 9.5/10

"Pet Sitter Pat": Patrick watches Gary while SpongeBob goes to Gramma's house to celebrate her birthday. This episode was more enjoyable than "Barnacle Face". This episode is kinda similar to "I Was A Teenage Gary" but that's okay because I liked this episode too and also I thought this episode was better than "I Was a Teenage Gary". Also It's good to see SpongeBob's grandma again. This episode wasn't too funny much but there were funny parts in this episode too. The funny parts of this episode are Squidward's cameo, Gary attacking Patrick, Gary reading Patrick "Snail Tales" book and Patrick's thinking the book was called "meow, meow". The ending is rushed a little but that's okay. In my opinion, this episode is one of the best season 8 episodes of SpongeBob and I recommend this episode to everyone, especially to Patrick and Gary fans. 10/10moreless

Barnacle Face is an episode I'd never see again

5.0

By YellowRaven2715, Feb 21, 2013

Barnacle Face: Okay, this episode was appalling. And to top it off, gross. When this aired in the Philippines, my cousins were eating and they groaned about it. I hated how Mr. Krabs turned Krabby Patties in to soap. I also hated Pearl. Her crying over a barancle annoyed me. Worst season 8 episode so far.

P.S. If you like Pearl, don't watch this episode. Also, don't watch this episode while eating or you'll have to hork.

1 F-

Pet Sitter Pat: This episode was very funny, mainly due to Patrick's stupidity. I kind of felt sorry for Gary. The best part is what Patrick said in the ending

Barnacle Face was superb, while Pet Sitter Pat was perfect

Barnacle Face: When Pearl gets a barnacle on the side of her face, Mr. Krabs has SpongeBob help her get rid of it before the school dance. It was a superb episode. The only thing that lowered my score that Pearl's crying. It felt that she cried for like the entire day. I has to take out 10 points for that. I did laugh that Pearl scream when she got a barnacle on her face. SpongeBob using various stuffs to get rid of the barnacle was funny. Mr. Krabs was very funny in this episode especially when he put soap on the krabby patties. The last minute was very funny as well when SpongeBob used Mr. Krabs' jewel to cover up Pearl's face. Overall, despite Pearl's nonstop crying, I liked this episode. 9/10Pet Sitter Pat: Patrick watches Gary while SpongeBob goes to Gramma's house to celebrate her birthday. It was way better than Barnacle Face and the plot was handled good. Both of the plots were funny. The part with Squidward was funny because Gary ate all of his kelp garden. Patrick messing up with some of SpongeBob's stuffs was funny as well. SpongeBob's grandma trying to blow the candles was very funny. Overall, this episode very funny especially Patrick's stupidly. The ending was a bit rushed though because SpongeBob thought he would come back with a destroyed pineapple. 10/10moreless

Barnacle Face: fairly good. Pet Sitter Pat: Nothing new

6.0

By zuperduper, Oct 22, 2011

In recent Spongebob episodes there is always one laugh riot episode. In others, nothing special happens and it's not that surprising. Let look at these episodes in context.

Barnacle Face: Grade B-

This episode has Pearl worried about face acme. Barnacles, the pimples of the sea.(no pun intended) I found that very creative, I also like the part where Spongebob has to use a jackhammer to get rid of the barnacles. I liked the sense of mystery in the episode when Pearl tries to get rid of the barnacles with soap, but she gets more barnacles. There are a fewthings that bug me about this episode. The ending seemed rushed, It seemed creative, yet uncreative at the same time. Mr. Krabs using Krabby Patties to make soap. They could have gone further there, oh well. The second thing is that there weren't many jokes, We've seen recent episodes like Oral Report, A Friendly Game, etc. have good jokes. The only thing I laughed at was the jackhammer part that was it.

Pet Sitter Pat: Grade D+

In this episode Patrick petsits Gary. I get that Patrick's an idiot and that's just it. Therefore he would be a bad petsitter. I could have easily seen it from a mile away when Patrick eats Gary's food rather than giving it to Gary.(reminds me of "Where's Gary")Then Patrick struggles to bathe Gary "Gary Takes a Bath" anyone. It seems way to similar. If there's one thing I don't like it's multiple episodes using the same formula. The only part I sort of liked was when Gary(somehow not hungry anymore) reads Patrick a be bedtime story. Besides that, there weren't much that was actually funny. The episode wasn't surprising or shocking either.moreless
