Summary: Nautical Excellence
Review: This release is much awaited by many spongebob fans across the world, especially after being teased with several spongebob releases with 10 random episodes each, finally u will be able to add the 1st complete season to your collection. Just to correct one of the former reviews, the first season is not every spongebob episode known to date. The first season ran from July of 1999 until May 2000 and included 20 episodes, keep in mind every episode has 2 stories, so u can look at it as really getting 40 episodes. ANyhoo this is an absolute must for any spongebob fan, dont waste your money on the silly 10 episode releases, just get the seasons as they are released.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best releases of the year
Review: Well, after buying every single separate SpongeBob DVD, they finally put out the boxed set. That's ok with me, I'll let my daughter have the separates to do with what she pleases and I'll keep the boxed set for my own collection. Spongebob Squarepants is definitely right up there in the top 5 cartoons ever made. I've already gotten the first 3 Simpsons DVD sets, the King of the Hill set, both Family Guy sets and now the Spongebob is coming out. Gauaranteed to be one of the best DVD releases of the year. A definite must have.

Summary: This is great, but why now?
Review: Of course I'm going to buy it! This has got to be the first great cartoon of the 21st century, and I'm one of the adult "Spongebob underground." That is, the adults out there who watch this show but are afraid to tell any of their adult friends for fear of being laughed at.

Now, it's a bit annoying that after collecting several Spongebob DVD's, they come out with this collection so soon. I'm getting to where I'll never buy individual DVDs of a TV series again, because this happens over and over. If a show is phenominally popular, ignore everything untill the season-at-a-time box sets come out. I've got the message.

Now, how about the folks at Nick releasing some of the earlier classics. How about a Ren and Stimpy box set, or a Rocko's Modern Life box set? What fun those would be!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Nonsense complete nonsense
Review: I hate this show. I hate those responsible for it. I hate those who watch it. This show revolves around a sea spounge (looks like a kitchen spounge) who works as a fry cook under the sea. The characters are all annoying completly unenjoyable. Nothing looks like its underwater. Those responsible for the show should be punished with being forced to watch there creations. One of the worst if not the worst show on television animated or not.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: At Last The 1st Season of the Best Show Ever.
Review: Finally, its here. The 1st season of a Truly great show, Spongebob SquarePants. In case you don't know, its about an optimistic sea sponge who lives in a pineapple in the Pacific Ocean, in a Town called Bikini Bottom. It's a very funny show. A lot like Ren and Stimpy, but better and without the Gross. This show is suitable for all ages, but pretty much all kids ages 2-9 will love it, but a lot of Teens love it too. But with Adults, its more of an Aquired taste. Some will find it childish and Unfunny, other adults will get a kick out of it.

This is the First Season, and the Animation is not very good. The colors look weak and faded, unlike the Bright colors of the other two seasons. It contains the First 20 episodes, a lot of which have been broken up and put on other DVDs. These are not the Best episodes, because the first season humor mostly appeals to younger kids. But it's still Great. My Favorate short episode seqments are Valentine's Day, Ripped Pants, Scaredy Pants, and Mermaidman and Barnacleboy, with guest stars Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway. The Special Features are OK, but I would've liked Audio Commentaries on all Episodes, not just two.

Overall, out of Ten, I'd give it a 9.5.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ??????????????????
Review: Why didn't they do this in the first place!!!!??????
I am a huge fan of the show. But I am pretty mad at Nick right now for first releasing sponge DVDs with the episodes all mixed up and not according to season, and they decide NOW, after seven (the seventh actually comes out on 9/30) of these DVDs, to release it according to season. I own the first six, and now I'll have to sell them used. What a waste of money. Sorta. The Season One set will be a great buy. It's not my favorite season (2, represent!), but it's great all the same. Here's the special features!
90 minutes of extras, INCLDUING:
-The Origin of Spongebob SquarePants
-Recollection from the 1st season crew featurette
-Everybody's talking: The voices of Spongebob SquarePants
-The Bikini Bottoms Up Tour
-In the key of Sea: Krusty Krab Karaoke
-Audio Commentary with Cast discussing 2 of their favorite episodes
-3 Music Videos
Sounds like a whoppin' good DVD set. Now I gotta go clean the disks of the old DVDs and ship 'em off to eBay. Buh-bye!
Also, watch for the SpongeBob movie on November 19, 2004. And stay tuned to Nick for new SpongeBob episodes next year, including "SpongeBob B.C." (Before Comedy), aka "Ugh". It's a half-hour Patchy special in which SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward discover fire. Oh, great, I sound like a news reporter guy.

Summary: A great series of DVD's
Review: Spongebob Squarepants, along with Fairly Odd Parents, is the best kid's animated series on TV today. It has the shameless silliness for the kids and the witty cracks and well-evolved characters that adults can appreciate. I am 30 and have watched these episodes numerous times and will continue to. They are just funny. I can relate to Squidward Tentacles' surly "whatever" attitude towards life. The money-grubbing Mr. Krabs is hilarious as well as Spongebob's dim-witted friend, Patrick. Plankton has to be funniest villain on television today! Anyway, this series was spot on from the beginning to which the following first season episodes attest:

Disc 1:
Reef Blower: Contrary to previous reviews, "Help Wanted" (where Spongebob is hired at the Krusty Krab) is not included on this disc. The first episode shown here is the one where Spongebob (SB) and Patrick interrupt Squidward's quiet time by demonstrating the fun one can have with reef blowers.
Tea at the Teadome: Sandy Cheeks the Squirrel is introduced and Patrick gives SB misguided advice on how to handle himself in Sandy's air-filled home.
Bubblestand: Squidward ends up paying for bubble blowing lessons from SB.
Ripped Pants: A beach mishap gives SB his 15 minutes of fame which he soon abuses.
Jellyfishing: SB and Patrick want to give Squidward (in a full body cast after a bicycle accident) his "best day ever" by taking him jellyfishing.
Plankton: [w/ commentary] Introduces Mr. Krab's arch-enemy who tries to take-over SB's brain.
Naughty Nautical Neighbors: Squidward thinks its hilarious to break up SB and Patrick's friendship until they look to him to fill their friendship void.
Boating School: Patrick tries to radio instructions to SB so he will finally pass his boating test.
Pizza Delivery: The Krusty Krab doesn't serve pizza. . . or does it? For money, Mr. Krabs will have his crew deliver anything.
Home Sweet Pineapple: Nematodes destroy SB's pineapple and he might have to move back into his parent's house.
Mermaidman and Barnacleboy: Featuring the voices of Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway. SB and Patrick try to get their heroes out of retirement.
Pickles: SB is devastated when he forgets to put pickles on Bubble Bass' krabby patty.
Hall Monitor: SB's title for the day goes to his head.
Jellyfish Jam: SB finds out that wild jellyfish throw wild parties.
Sandy's Rocket: Sandy plans a trip to the moon in her rocket. SB and Patrick get her there, as well as the rest of Bikini Bottom.
Squeaky Boots: Mr. Krab's convinces SB to give up his paycheck for Pearl's ill-received birthday gift.

Disc 2:
Nature Pants: SB wants to live among the jellyfish (don't we all).
Opposite Day: Squidward introduces a fake holiday to keep SB and Patrick away from him while he tries to sell his house. Of course, it backfires.
Culture Shock: Squidward plans a talent show and hires a popular guy to clean up.
F.U.N.: Plankton and SB become friends? I love the F.U.N. song (especially Plankton's version of the lyrics)!
MuscleBob BuffPant: SB buys blow-up muscle arms to impress Sandy and finds they are not too useful in weight-lifting competition.
Squidward the Unfriendly Ghost: Squidward doesn't mind that SB and Patrick think he's a ghost, until they decide he needs to go to the other side.
The Chaperone: SB takes Pearl to her prom.
Employee of the Month: SB and Squidward compete for the honor.
Scaredy Pants: The Flying Dutchman doesn't like SB dressing as him for Halloween.
I Was a Teenage Gary: Gary is left in the care of Squidward who forgets to feed him. The ending to this one is hilarious.
SB-129: Squidward gets locked into a freezer and, when he is thawed out, finds himself in the future with his two biggest nightmares worse than ever.
Karate Choppers: [w/ commentaries] Mr. Krabs orders SB to stop playing karate.
Sleepy Time: SB enters the dreams of select Bikini Bottom residents; much to their nightmares.
Suds: Patrick tries various techniques to cure SB of the suds so he will not have to go to the dreaded doctor.
Valentine's Day: When SB's valentine delivery to Patrick is delayed, Patrick completely freaks out.
The Paper: Squidward is so impressed with what SB can do with a gum wrapper he threw away, he trades everything he owns to get it back. Then he finds it is just not the same.

Disc 3:
Arrgh!: Mr. Krabs takes the board game Treasure Hunt a little too seriously.
Rock Bottom: SB gets off the bus at the wrong stop and finds himself in strange territory with terrible bus service.
Texas: One of my favorites. SB and Patrick try to convince the homesick Sandy that Bikini Bottom is her really home.
Walking Small: Plankton hopes he can recruit SB to clear the beach for the construction of his Chum Bucket Mega-Bucket.
Fools in April: Annoyed by SB's constant April tomfoolery, Squidward goes too far in getting him back.
Neptune's Spatula: Another fave of mine. Neptune is skeptical that SB pulled the mythical spatula from the ancient grease.
Hooky: When SB does not heed his boss' advice about staying away from fishing hooks, Mr. Krabs must teach him a lesson.
Mermaidman and Barnacleboy II: SB wins the Conch Signal and runs his heroes ragged with trivial tasks.
This disc includes lots of extras including (but not limited to) interviews with the actors who supply the voices, a history of the show, Violent Femmes sing Spongebob, and a Patchy the Pirate-hosted Bikini Bottom tour (curiously, Patrick's rock is not included).

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Again?
