DVD Review: SpongeBob SquarePants - Who Bob What Pants

Who says you need to be a kid to love Spongebob? Nickelodeon’s newly released DVD, WhoBob WhatPants is fun and entertaining for the whole family. The DVD includes the new special, “What Ever Happened to Spongebob?” as well as five other episodes, adding up to 78 minutes of loveable Spongebob and pals Patrick, Sandy, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs as they battle through quirky storylines that only Spongebob can pull off.

The featured episode—“What Ever Happened to Spongebob?”—is extremely fun and entertaining. I hadn’t watched Spongebob in a while, but the laughs this episode provided more laughs than I would get in an entire day. After Squidward, Sandy, and Mr. Krabs call Spongebob an idiot boy, Spongebob leaves Bikini Bottom, the Krusty Krab, and his friends. He trips and gets amnesia and winds up in a place where bubble blowing, Spongebob’s favorite pastime, is prohibited. Can Spongebob bring back the bubbles? Meanwhile, everyone (minus Squidward) is worried sick about Spongebob missing. It’s Squidward’s job to find him. He’s so thrilled. Not. I’ll give this episode a 8/10.

Plankton tries once again to steal the coveted Krabby Patty Formula in the episode, “Goo Goo Gas.” I’ll give it a 7.5. To steal the formula, Plankton turns Mr. Krabs and Spongebob into babies. Plankton trying to steal the formula is always funny, but the episode was simply not as good as “What Ever Happened to Spongebob?” I have to admit though, Spongebob makes one extremely cute baby.


I love Squidward, so the “Two Faces of Squidward” was absolutely brilliant. The Squid is the best character on the show, so sarcastic and looking at Spongebob like he’s a moron. In this episode, Spongebob injures Squidward’s face and he becomes the hottest fish in Bikini Bottom. Definitely one of the best episodes of Spongebob—9/10.
