  • terrible, but with one good part.

    "Terrible"
    Since SpongeBob made an exact replica of Squidward's house, Squidward should have had an easier time finding his vacuum cleaner, by looking for it in the place where Squidward would keep it in his real house.
    The good part was Squid's insane ending.

  • It's official: SpongeBob is a stalker.

    "Abysmal"
    Was this episode supposed to be funny? Because all I saw was behavior that would constitute a visit from the police.
    It's another one of those "Squidward abuse" episodes. First of all, why does SpongeBob want Squidward at his house so badly? Is he that desperate for some company? Or maybe he just has some obsessive, twisted crush on Squidward. If that's the angle the writers were trying to get, they succeeded in that aspect.
    When Squidward refuses SpongeBob's pleas to visit his house, SpongeBob responds by taking Squidward's vacuum cleaner. When Squidward calls SpongeBob to confront him, SpongeBob responds by inviting Squidward to come over and get it, and then BREATHING HEAVILY into the phone. Warning sign number one.
    So, Squidward ends up putting his food in the oven to cook, and then goes to get his vacuum...only to find that SpongeBob has redecorated his house to look EXACTLY LIKE SQUIDWARD'S. Warning sign number two. Squidward once again demands his vacuum, but SpongeBob very bluntly ignores the demands, instead trying everything he can to make sure Squidward stays. Warning sign number three.
    Finally, Squidward gets fed up by SpongeBob's unreasonable behavior, and gets his vacuum back himself. However, by the time he escapes SpongeBob's house, he realizes that his house has burnt to the ground because of his food in the oven.
    And does SpongeBob apologize for keeping Squidward so long that his house burnt down? No! He just offers to let Squidward stay at his house.
    The episode ends with Squidward staying in the replica of his house (SpongeBob's house), while SpongeBob and Gary sleep on the remains of Squidward's house.
    There was nothing entertaining about this episode; SpongeBob was acting not only like a jerk, but a stalker. Like I said, if the writers wanted to make SpongeBob out like a guy with an unhealthy obsessive crush on Squidward, well, they hit the nail on the head here.moreless

  • Decent BUT the writers can come up with a better storyline than this

    7.0
    "Good"
    This wasn't a bad episode in my opinion and I'll give it a good score because I liked the storyline... I didn't LOVE it... I just LIKED it. I don't know why the writers would come up with a storyline like this though. Squidward told SpongeBob that he has never visited his home but we've seen him visit his home in the past episodes. Squidward also told SpongeBob that he has never called him on the phone but AGAIN we've seen him call him on the phone in the past episodes. I guess those things are what bugged me the most because it seemed like the writers forgot when Squidward visited SpongeBob's house or when Squidward called SpongeBob. I also didn't like it when Squidward told SpongeBob that he would rather be comfortable in his own home than SpongeBob's ugly home or something like that (Squidward is the one that said it). It was very funny that SpongeBob turned his house exactly like Squidward's home and that everything was exactly as Squidward's house was and Squidward gets scared and freaked out. Squidward's shocked expression when SpongeBob told him that he could stay at his house after Squidward's house burned down was funny. Although, I didn't like the ending in this episode. Overall, this was overall a good episode but the writers can do a better job to make a better storyline than this. 7/10moreless

  • I liked this episode, SpongeBob will do anything to get Squidward to come over.

    I thought it was funny how desperate SpongeBob was to get Squidward to his house. I mean, he made an EXACT replica of Squid's house JUST to get him to come over. Now THAT'S what I call desperate. I thought it was funny how squidward was so creeped out that SpongeBob got down to cracks in the wall, and exact contents of his medicine cabinet. And how he tried to convince himself that the replicas of his art weren't true art pieces, just mimickry. Squidward will never admit that he isn't even that good at art himself. He's in denial.moreless

  • Alright. Gets kinda boring

    "Good"
    Spongebob wants Squidward to visit him at his house, so he makes an exact replica of Squidward's house, borrows his vacuum, and forces Squiddy to stay at his house. In the end Squid's house is burned down because of some food he left in the oven he forgot about.

    It's an alright episode but I find it kind of boring in some parts. I also didn't really like the resolution, with Squid being in Spongebob's house and Spongebob being where his house used to be. So I guess a "C" or so would be appropriate for this particular episode. Averagemoreless
