Updated this week Character mistake: In the beginning of "Born Again Krabs" Spongebob only has one bill in his hand, a 5 dollar bill. When he goes to his house and comes back, he says he found 68 cents. Therefore, he has 5 dollars and 68 cents. However, he has two dollar bills and a few pennies in his hand, which cannot be made into $5.68.

Jellyfishing / Plankton! (season 1, episode 3)

Updated this week Character mistake: In "Plankton" when Spongebob is in Plankton's lab, he says the ingredients in a Krabby Patty. He doesn't mention the secret sauce.

Updated this week Continuity: In "Plankton", when Plankton is controlling Spongebob, Spongebob goes to put his pants on, but Plankton has him walk through them. As they're walking towards the pants, the tie is red. As they're walking through the pants, the tie turns black. As they walk away from the pants, the tie is red again.

Updated recently Audio problem: In "Plankton" in the beginning, when Spongebob is outside with Mr. Krabs, Spongebob laughs. His laugh sounds different that how it does in the rest of the show.

Mistake Plot hole: Ep 3-21 Spongebob Meets The Strangler / Pranks A Lot: When the invisible Spongebob and Patrick scare Sandy, they are using a sheet to appear as "ghosts".

Procrastination / I'm With Stupid (season 2, episode 19)

Mistake Continuity: In "Procrastination" when Spongebob is moving back and forth on his chair while writing his essay there is no pencil on the desk, but when he goes back to work on the essay there is.

Across whole show

Mistake Plot hole: 3-21: Spongebob Meets The Strangler / Pranks A Lot, in "Pranks A Lot", Patrick and SpongeBob scare Sandy. When Sandy runs, gets into her rocket and flies away. When she moved bubbles appeared meaning there's water in her tree house. There's no water in there in other episodes because she's a land animal and breathes air.

Mistake Continuity: In the episode "F.U.N", the chum bucket is not across the road from the Krusty Krab, but in every other episode it is.

Bubblestand / Ripped Pants (season 1, episode 1)

Mistake Continuity: In "Bubblestand" after Squidward blows the huge bubble, he tells Spongebob and Patrick that the ability to blow bubbles is in his genes. If you look at the position of the bubblestand sign, the sign is facing the direction Squidward is talking. The sign had always been facing the street, which means that Squidward was actually talking towards the street, when Spongebob and Patrick are actually to his right.

Jellyfishing / Plankton! (season 1, episode 3)

Mistake Continuity: In Jellyfishing, when Patrick puts the net in Squidward's hand, at first it is in his left hand, but when he gets the jellyfish on the king jellyfish, it is on his right hand.
