  • Oh boy this is the mixed reception I'm going to get from the same writer (Richard Pursel)

    6.0
    This is the two sided of Richard Pursel (who wrote both of these episodes). Honestly he isn't the best writer ever but he just come off at writing episodes that will range from awful to awesome (at least he improved in his last episodes of SB) and make characters OoC at certain episodes. These episodes will clearly state why.



    SpongeHenge: For Pursel standards, this was a bad episode. I rather watch it than the Battle of Bikini Bottom. This is considered his worst season 5 episode ever. No wonder why it panned too much. The plot didn't make that much sense. The only parts worth seeing are the beginning, Patric's appearance and maybe one more scene that I didn't know. The rest just sucked. OVERALL 3/10



    20,000 Patties Under the Sea: For an episode written by the same guy it was a huge improvement. It still has its downs which was the ending and not being the best episode. More humor are there which include the beginning (I liked it because it's csllback to Jellyfishing) as the jellyfish approached to SpongeBob and Patrick, SpongeBob and Patrick crashing the Krusty Krab with a submarine, the kid kept saying the same flavor, SpongeBob and Patrick feeding the sea monster and then he eat the dirt Plankton. My biggest flaw was SpongeBob's line "I like Squidward" which prove that Richard Pursel make the character's relationship with Squidward very annoying in some of his episodes. OVERALL SCORE 9/10moreless

  • Wait...did anything actually happen in SpongeHenge?

    3.0
    This review is mostly about "SpongeHenge," because I really don't have an opinion on "20,000 Patties," except it wasn't really a groundbreaking episode. Nothing too exciting.

    Now that that's out of the way, I can safely say that "SpongeHenge" SUCKED. There was NO plot! So it's really windy in Bikini Bottom, and the wind is blowing through SpongeBob's holes, creating a song that the jellyfish love. What does this have to do with the Krusty Krab? It just felt like it was only put in the show just so the wind could blow it away.

    Then, SpongeBob is so desperate to get away from the jellyfish, he creates a bunch of statues that make their own song, distracting the jellyfish; SpongeBob runs back to the Krusty Krab, only to find that it's been buried. It then jumps to 3000 years later, to a bunch of aliens taking pictures of the circle of SpongeBob statues. The episode ends with a zoom-in of one of the statue's mouths while SpongeBob's laugh is heard in the background.

    Huh?

    The only reason I did not rate this episode a 1 was because "20,000 Patties" wasn't horrible. But "SpongeHenge" definitely was. How can you like a story that has no real plot?moreless
  • "SpongeHenge" was overall good but not great and "20,000 Patties Under the Sea" was superb.

    8.0
    SpongeHenge: I thought that this episode was overall good but not great. It thought it was very funny when the leftover flew away from those two fishes because it windy and then that one fish says "No, why dear Neptune?". I thought it was funny when Mr. Krabs was dragging SpongeBob with a fish pole. What I didn't like about this episode was when SpongeBob said that he has never been tardy once but he have seen him being tardy before this episode aired. Also, SpongeBob said that he would make different sizes of those Spongebob statues but they are all the same sizes which everyone can obviously see. I also thought that the ending was totally bogus because SpongeBob is free from Jellyfish Fields and then the Krusty Krab was half buried with sand. I also didn't like how SpongeBob had that beard when he was stuck in the cave for a long time. Overall, this was a good but not that great SpongeBob episode but like I said, it wasn't bad. 7/10



    20,000 Patties Under the Sea: I thought that this episode was better than "SpongeHenge". The only thing that really bugged me about this episode was when Patrick said to Spongebob "You said bye Squidward twice" and then SpongeBob says "I like Squidward". The writers are trying to prove to everyone that SpongeBob isn't gay but this episode isn't helping them at all and I'm mad at the writers for that. It was funny when Mr. Krabs turned the submarine into the Krusty Krab on the road. Plankton insulting everyone was the most hilarious part of this episode and then everyone throws rocks at him. It was also hilarious when everyone ran out of rocks and then they buy more rocks from SpongeBob and Patrick and throw those rocks at Plankton. Gene Simmons voicing as the Abyss was cool and when Spongebob and Patrick were feeding krabby patties and sandwiches to The Abyss. It was as hilarious when the Abyss mistaken Plankton for a chocolate eclair and chases after Plankton. I didn't the ending was that good because SpongeBob and Patrick traded in all of the money for colored rocks. Overall, this was a superb episode of SpongeBob. 9/10moreless
  • One good episode and one extremely good episode.

    SpongeHenge: This episode is hated by a lot of people but I only hate the parts with the jellyfish. There are too many funny parts to not like it, such as everything Mr. Krabs says and a bunch of small things SpongeBob says. Ending is okay. B+



    20,000 Patties Under the Sea: This is an extremely funny epsiode, especially the beginning and especially everything Plankton says. The 'I like Squidward' part that evryone complains about is one of the funniest jokes in this episode, and it's not anything gay like people say. And Gene Simmons as the Sea Monster was pretty cool.

Trivia, Notes, Quotes and Allusions

FILTER BY TYPE

  • TRIVIA (14)

    • In "SpongeHenge," SpongeBob said he needed to create several stone SpongeBobs that were all different sizes. However, all of the SpongeBobs he builds seem to be the same size.

    • How did SpongeBob get a jackhammer or other tools to chisel the rocks if he ran into the cave to hide and wouldn't leave?

    • When the jellyfish goes into SpongeBob's body, his brain was attached to his eyes. But in "Mermaid Man And Barnacle Boy IV," Sandy kicks SpongeBob's brain and it's not attached to his eyes and in "Plankton," it was just floating around.

    • Jack M. Crazyfish sounds diffrent in "20,000 Patties Under The Sea" from when he sounded in "Blackened Sponge."

    • This episode may be set in the past/future, since the sea monster says he's been asleep for 79 years, but he said his last meal was in '76. If he was referring to 1876, 1776 or 1676 etc, this episode is set in the past, but if the sea monster meant 1976, then this episode would be set in 2055.

    • If SpongeBob & Patrick had to let go of all of the money, how could they get back with all of those rocks, since rocks weigh more?

    • When SpongeBob gives the sea monster the first patty, you can see that the patty is black, not brown.

    • Planet of The Apes is slightly refrenced at the end when SpongeBob, with a Charlton Heston beard, see's the Krusty Krab in the sand and yells "NO!"

    • Near the end of "20,000 Patties Under the Sea," a contractor is shown in the Krusty Krab wiping the window near the front of the building, apparently having repaired the damage SpongeBob and Patrick had done with the ufo near the beginning of the episode. However, if you watch carefully, you'll notice they didn't actually crash through the front window. They crashed through the side of the building.

    • This is the second episode to show the future, the first being "SB-129."

    • In "SpongeHenge," the driveway in front of Mr. Krabs disappears when he's reeling SpongeBob to the Krusty Krab.

    • Plankton's burgers looked different in this episode.

    • How could SpongeBob say that he's never been late to the Krusty Krab if he had been late before?

    • This is the second appearance of Jack M. Crazyfish; he last appeared in "Blackened Sponge."

  • QUOTES (17)

    • SpongeBob: Breaker breaker, the outer perimeter looks clear.

    • SpongeBob: See any customers, Patrick?
      Patrick: No, but I see a sign. It says, "Warning: Ab... Eyes?"
      SpongeBob: Let me see. (looks through periscope) No, Patrick, that says "Abyss."

    • SpongeBob: I think I landed on my pain center.

    • SpongeBob: Patrick, what is that thing?
      Patrick: It looks like a liquid.
      SpongeBob: No, it's a solid! It's a solid!
      (they look at each other)
      Both: It's a lolsquid!

    • Sea Monster: Okay, what's going on in there?

    • Sea Monster: I want more sandwiches!

    • SpongeBob: Target is in site, Patrick. Over.
      Patrick: Uh, Robert! Uh, Ronald. Uh, Ryan.
      SpongeBob: Patrick, are you sure you're not trying to say Roger?
      Patrick: Oh, wait! I got it! Ringo!

    • Patrick: I'm sorry, SpongeBob, but you're a negative influence!

    • SpongeBob: (looking at a jellyfish) Patrick, I have visual contact.

    • (a time card says, "3 Million Years Later")
      Futuristic Alien: To this day, no one knows why these mysterious statues were created or by whom. All we know is that the genius of their design has caused the annual migration of jellyfish to their wondrous tune.

    • SpongeBob & Patrick: We're back, Mr. Krabs!
      Mr. Krabs: Well boys, what did you get!
      SpongeBob: Oh, you'll be so proud of us! We made so many new customers.
      Mr. Krabs: I don`t care about that, tell me about the money!
      SpongeBob: There we were at the bottom of a deep, dark abyss, and we had to let go of something heavy.
      Patrick: And paper.
      Mr. Krabs: You let go of the money I earned?!
      SpongeBob: But on the bright side, we did manage to bring back 37,000 pounds of these decorative deep sea rocks. (opens the compartment of the ship, and rocks fall out)

    • SpongeBob: Bye, Squidward. Bye, Mr. Krabs. (in a flirting tone) Bye, Squidward.
      Patrick: You said bye to Squidward twice.
      SpongeBob: I like Squidward.

    • Sea Monster: I want dessert!
      SpongeBob: We don't have desserts.
      Sea Monster: I want dessert!
      Plankton: Don't get another patty from those fast food phonies, they stole my idea, my idea!
      (Plankton rolls down the cliff)
      Sea Monster: Hey, a chocolate eclair! That looks like dessert to me.
      Plankton: Ahhh! (runs)

    • (a Chum Burger falls down)
      SpongeBob: Oh, what`s that?
      Sea Monster: Well, that looks like a sandwich to me. (eats the burger)
      SpongeBob: Yes, not just a sandwich, it's a Chumwich.

    • Sea Monster: I want more burgers!
      SpongeBob: They'll be right up!

    • SpongeBob: Patrick, look. There's a weird thing sticking out of the ground right there.
      Patrick: That's just Squidward sunbathing again.
      SpongeBob: No, not that thing, that thing!

    • Plankton: Hello, little boy. Would you like a Chum Burger?
      Boy Fish: Uh, does it come in raspberry?
      Plankton: Uh, no.
      Boy Fish: Blueberry?
      Plankton: No.
      Boy Fish: Um... raspberry?
      Plankton: Oh, come on, kid, you asked me that already! Now quit wasting my time!
      Mom Fish: Hey, you can't talk to my son that way! Who do you think you are?
      Plankton: I'm Plankton, you old hag, and your son smells like boogers!
      Dad Fish: Hey, you can't talk to my wife that way! What do you think this is?
      Plankton: I think it's time for you to lose some weight, fatty! That's what it is!
      Grandma Fish: Hey, you can't talk to my grandson like that! Someone ought to put you in a mental hospital!
      Plankton: Someone should put you in a box, floating down the river, Grandma!
      Grandma Fish: You're probably right.
      Plankton: You people are crazy!

  • NOTES (15)

  • ALLUSIONS (10)

    • The scene where SpongeBob is in a cave hiding from the jellyfish and making a stone buddy is a reference to the movie Castaway.

    • As for who was right in the Neptune/Poseidon debate seen in the very beginning, they were both right. The Romans called him Neptune and the Greeks called him Poseidon.

    • SpongeBob: But we did manage to bring back these decorative deep sea rocks.

      The rocks that SpongeBob brings back are similar to the rocks that people place on the bottom of their fish bowls.

    • SpongeHenge: Song in SpongeBob's Holes

      One of the songs that is played in SpongeBob's holes sounds a little bit like a song played in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

    • Are we There Yet?
      When SpongeBob said goodbye to Squidward twice, and then said, "I like Squidward" was a parody of a quote to "Are we There yet?"

    • Monster
      The one-eyed monster looked like a cyclops.

    • 20,000 Patties Under the Sea: Name
      This episode is based on a book called "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea", by Jules Verne.

    • Planet of the Apes
      SpongeBob with brown hair and a brown beard who arrived at a half-buried Krusty Krab is a parody of the original Planet of the Apes.

    • The Day After Tomorrow
      The part of the episode when SpongeBob is mourning the fact that the Krusty Krab was abandoned in the time he was hiding is a reference to The Day After Tomorrow.

    • Title
      SpongeHenge is a parody of the famous old calender made, called Stone Henge.
