Survival of the Idiots / Dumped - S2-E8

Corrected entry: When Patrick rips off some of Sandy's fur in "Survival of the Idiots," Spongebob says "Let me see that roll of tape." He shouldn't need to borrow it, though, because just a few moments earlier, he peeled some of the bark of Sandy's tree back and the sealed it with his own roll of tape. Patrick couldn't have borrowed Spongebob's, because his looked different from the one Spongebob used.

Correction: The tape Patrick uses is probably the one that Spongebob used to seal up the tree as we only saw one roll at a time. When they go to "steal" Sandy's fur Spongebob is ripping off her fur he is removing one hair of fur at a time, then Patrick becomes annoyed and uses the tape. The only difference from the tape Spongebob used to Patricks was the roller Spongebob used. Those rollers you have to put your own tape so Patrick might have just removed it from the roller.

Lummie

Correction: Fish and creatures living in water still need oxygen. There is bubbles as the air needs to be supplied into the water like a fishtank needs a constant stream of air running into the water. Given the unrealism in this show anyway, it's not unbelievable that they could use the oxygen in their system to blow air through their instruments.

Lummie

Correction: Its not likely they would play to a group of humans either but many of the physical limitations in Spongebob are not observed so its not impossible to believe the ocean is underneath this football stadium.

Lummie

Correction: There wasn't anything to suggest there was only the one theatre inside so the other people could be from the other theatres inside or even people in the building but not in the cinema. Even if there was only one theatre the number of people would have mostly likely deliberately been increased by the director to show how bad the situation was.

Big Pink Loser / Bubble Buddy - S2-E3

Corrected entry: Spongebob shrinks down after Patrick's suggestions to get an award. When Spongebob shrinks down and says "The smallest you can think of", his voice is high-pitched, but when Spongebob agrees with Patrick's suggestion about a job at the Krusty Krab, his voice is normal. It should be tiny until he grows back.

Correction: It is quite possible that Spongebob put on the high voice intentionally, and then decided to use his normal voice again.

Correction: He's representing the Krusty Krab.

Correction: This happens in animated shows plenty of times. These characters are 'stock' characters, and aren't at all useful to the plot, and are therefore used more often than characters that actually have bigger parts. This is not a mistake - however, if someone such as Pearl or Larry were to be 'duplicated', that would be a mistake, because they actually have recurring and speaking parts.

Jellyfish Hunters / The Fry Cook Games - S2-E16

Corrected entry: In "The Frycook Games," when they make jokes involving the audience, (such as when that one section gets turned into fish sticks) look around at all of the audience members. Many of the same fish are in there twice, or more.

Correction: Well illustrators often use stock characters for their animated shows, and these fish are just 'extras' and can therefore be 'duplicated' in the audience. For example, the fish with the British accent (as in Band Geeks), often shows up in many different parts, as well as the brown fish that had a song in the episode about Jelly Patties. It's not a mistake, because the illustrators do this on purpose. However, it would be strange if some main-er and more unique (such as Larry the Lobster and Mrs. Puff) characters were 'duplicated'.

Correction: This is true, but his eyelashes were missing also, so it's more of an error in the animation.

Correction: It doesn't effect his nose, it effects his eyes and mouth.

Your Shoe's Untied / Squid's Day Off - S2-E2

Corrected entry: In "Your Shoe's Untied," Spongebob comes into the Krusty Krab and says "I can't let Patrick see that I still haven't tied my shoes." Patrick and other customers are eating. But Spongebob is the only Krusty Krab frycook, so how could they be eating if he wasn't there.

Correction: In the episode "Just One Bite" we see that the restaurant has a Patty Vault in which they keep ready-to-serve Krabby Patties. We can assume that even if they don't have SpongeBob to cook patties, they do have some ready-made ones that they can simply get out and serve to the customers.

Pre-Hibernation Week / Life of Crime - S2-E13

Corrected entry: In "Pre-Hibernation Week," when they're swimming in the ice-cold water, Sandy says she has three days left until hibernation. But then, Patrick comes home with groceries and asks, "Who are you people?" to everyone under his rock, indicating that Spongebob had only been under the rock while he was on a daily errand. So it had only been a few hours since Sandy said she had three days left, but yet she starts hibernating.

Correction: Squidward says at one point during the search, "How about a break? We've been at it for days." This gives evidence that the fish had been searching (and Spongebob had been hiding) for the remainder of the three days, and by the time Sandy found him, the time was up and she fell asleep.

Correction: We saw in "Survival of the Idiots" that Sandy stuffed herself before hibernation. She didn't get to overeat this time, so she wasn't fat.

Correction: Squidward only says this just before Spongebob wishes. Squidward is thinking Spongebob will say something stupid and get them all eaten in the process.

Correction: As we've seen in previous episodes, none of the fish swim around, so it's reasonable to assume that they can't (and that they can only walk around).

Correction: You will have to be a bit clearer as to when this mistake occurs. Spongebob is pouring and then needs a ladder to reach the top of the food as he keeps pouring.

The Secret Box / Band Geeks - S2-E14

Audio problem: At the end of "Band Geeks" when everyone is playing "Sweet Victory" at one point Mrs. Puff is shown playing the guitar. When this happens, you can see the others in the background not doing anything, even though their instruments are heard.

Mr. Krabs: Alright, Plankton! It's Eugene Krabs, here, with, What's-His-Name! Now come on out!

Plankton: I really can't come outside!
SpongeBob: Why not?
Plankton: Because I'm already out here, you bumbling bottom feeders! Open your eyes for crying out loud!

Show generally

Question: There was supposedly one episode that ended with SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs all laughing in a boat. The laughing then silences, eventually to a stop. Then SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs walk out of the boat, and Squidward eventually walks out too. Which episode is this?

Answer: I believe this is the Season 6 episode "Spongicus".
