This episode is exact moment sponge Bob went south. I love that your and Mr enter are doing videos together now! I can reference everything!

[@OptimusPhillip]

I'd like to share a story. The story of a young boy named Phillip who watched this episode when he was five or six (this happened almost a decade ago though, so take my account with a grain of salt, since it is pretty hazy). He enjoyed the first half, probably because he found the red paint part funny and/or because Squidward does something about the situation. However, the moment the security system registered Squidward as a threat and turned into a giant robot and destroyed Bikini Bottom, he became confused. And when Squidward got punished for it, despite it not being his fault, he started crying. Almost a decade later, his opinion largely has not changed, except his penchant for crying fits has since faded. Admittedly, Phillip has high-function autism, but the same issues he had could most likely be shared by an ordinary kid.

Indeed, this episode was one of the worst Squidward tortured episodes.

Myku Villareal I agree Spongebob and Patrick were being annoying, but later in the episode, they just came to apologize to Squidward for bugging him so much, even making him a cake. If he had just accepted it, the security system wouldn’t have gone out of control, and Squidward wouldn’t have gotten sentenced to community service. I never really minded watching A Pal for Gary.

I used to hate this episode, but now I realized that there are some things I like. I like that SpongeBob and Patrick are trying to help him, but the problem is that they keep breaking into his house. I also like the painting scene, which is kind of cool and funny. I love the scene where he yells at them, that's scary and funny at the same time. I also think it's funny when he says "Intruder alert, intruder alert!" I also like the idea of a Good Neighbor Lodge. The way he says "The idiots took my house!" is pretty funny. It's creepy and funny at the same time time when he goes "Ooh..." as points his tentacles in spongebob and patricks direction. I also think it's funny when he jumps on his hands. Now for the downsides. Squidward is tortured for NO REASON. His house randomly turns into a robot. Spongebob and patrick keep breaking into his house. Overall, I think this episode is between ok and good, but i totally get why so many people hate it, and I as I said before, I used to also. But opinions are opinions.

I've seen worse, but this was the episode that would become the source of episodes like Boating Buddies. -_-

[@lilromeo615videosowner5]

I understand your rage for this episode, but let me note something. This is everyone's fault. Patrick and Spongebob are trying to be good neighbors to Squidward, and even if he wants to enjoy a sunday afternoon alone, why cant he just allow spongebob and patrick and enjoy it together? Squidward wants them away but that keeps driving spongebob and patrick TO him rather than welcoming him into his house. None of them are justified in this episode, but Squidward gets most of the torture. Even when Spongebob wanted to apologize, squidward could have accepted, calmed down a little, and maybe even enjoy the cake with Spongebob and Patrick. Instead, squidward wanted them OUT because he thought they were gonna do something wrong. In this episode, the torture is not as bad as other episodes because spongebob and patrick are just trying to be genuinely good to squidward. Spongebob And Patrick werent even real threats to the security system, but Squidward didnt see that. Spongebob and Patrick are not innocent either, not being able to take the message to GO AWAY and stay away from Squidward. But that being said, Squidward has no reason to complain whatsoever because of his wasted sunday. It could have easily been a good sunday with better character treatment, maybe they could chill together, bond some more, and have that delicious cake. Your rage is also mines toward this episode, but it's not AS bad as other squidward tortures, that being said, it still is one in itself. Good Neighbors is a bad episode because Squidward received the torture when Spongebob and Patrick were just trying to be good to him, and Squidward was all like a salty 12 year old who just wants to be alone. Spongebob turned off the security system on code red mode, thus resolving the episode's problem. And I think the punishment for community service at the end is fitting. Spongebob and Patrick receive it too, and SQUIDWARD was the one who hit the machine, tipped the cake over and made it go code red. All I am trying to say, is that EVERYONE is at fault here, but this is a problem with a easy resolution. Have a good sunday, and chill with some friends. Even if Spongebob and Patrick made a club together, it was all about being good neighbors and if everyone complied, if they all had a good sunday together, watching tv, drinking some tea/soda, that'd at least be better than a sunday of, getting polkadotted in the face, and everything else that happened to Squidward. This resolution would at LEAST make the episode fit its title, GOOD. NEIGHBORS.

[@EpicJoshua314]

This isn’t a very good episode, but episodes like Squid Wood and Cephalopod Lodge are much, much worse than this one. I pretty much agree with the points here; the part I didn’t like that seems to be omitted is the fact that according to Squidward it’s 7:30pm when his house becomes a robot, and throughout the entire episode it doesn’t even look like it’s becoming night, or even dusk.?? The part that makes me not feel that this is the worst episode of Season 4 is that Spongebob and Patrick give him an apology cake (similarly how they did in Squidville) with it saying “Sorry for bugging you so much”. But Squidward refuses to accept it and orders the machine to destroy them, when the machine doesn’t, due to the fact that it’s correct that there is no threat, he starts banging on the machine and zaps him, causing what happens after to happen. I agree, the robot part didn’t make sense. Simply, if Squidward had accepted the apology cake and then ordered them to leave, none of what comes next would have happened. If this was a now or a Season 6-7 episode, it would have been that Squidward accepts the cake, then something happened in which because of Spongebob and Patrick the cake gets ruined, making Squidward order the machine to destroy them, justifying his determination for the machine to work. Anyway, if Good Neighbours, Squid Wood, Cephalopod Lodge and Squid’s Visit were on the Meh cliff and about to be thrown into the ScumBob chasm, I would have thrown all of them off, ignoring Squid Wood’s cry for forgiveness, throwing a rope to Cephalopod Lodge and Squid’s Visit and left them dangling over the cliff by a single rope. Lastly, I would have thrown 2 ropes to Good Neighbours, leaving it dangle by 2 ropes. I would definitely put Good Neighbours in the Bottom 5 for Season 4, but not as the #1 worst episode of that Season.

[@ryanbarth6691]

What about the episode where SpongeBob moved into the krusty krab

[@GanonGhidorah]

Yes - I know this episode is bad. This was the one that made me realize that Spongebob and Patrick just need to get their own lives and leave Squidward alone. Particularly because - I'm an Introvert; I like being alone - it helps my creative process. And after three years of middle school and four years of high school, I know how irritating it is when MORONS just won't take a hint that you want them to leave you alone. (And because of it, I've become a rather bitter anti-social recluse) That basically put me in Squidward's shoes in this episode, and every episode since. Hell, I even think he's justified with giggling evilly when he discovers the security system. It's easy for someone to push you far enough that you get "giddy" at the thought of them getting hurt. However, I do have kind of affinity for this episode. For the one thing, it's the sister episode to Skill-Crane - which I love; so I associate that episode with this one. Also - and this is a personal reason, for me, the highlight of the episode is after Squidward's house rampages through the city; Squidward realizes that he just can't catch a break and politely asks Spongebob and Patrick to leave. When they try to stay behind, and he wants to hear none of it, he delivers what would be my favorite line from the series. "GET OUT OF MY HOOOOUSE!!!" While that line should really be Squidward's catchphrase and not really anything special, the angered face that Squidward is making, the way the voice actor delivered it, and the fact that his tone and volume are powerful enough to send Spongebob and Patrick flying away...just makes me smile. It's almost like a small victory in a way. Unfortunately, the smile is destroyed in the following scene when Squidward gets that Community Service summons. I can only hope since he doesn't do any beyond this episode, that he got a really good lawyer and got off.

It’s also frustrating that SpongeBob and Patrick just break into Squidward’s house in the later seasons when in the earlier seasons they would politely knock on his door instead of just breaking and entering his house. Now I’m not going to say that they never broke into Squidward’s house occasionally like in Opposite Day they did. But what about in episodes like Jellyfishing where they knock on Squidward’s door and then ask if he would go jellyfishing and same thing in SB-129, sure they were still pestering Squidward about going jellyfishing but it doesn’t get to the point of it being infuriating and in the episode Snowball Effect after SpongeBob basically Gatling Gunned a bunch of snowballs into Patrick’s mouth Patrick does knock to ask Squidward if he could use his bathroom. So yeah, whatever happened to SpongeBob and Patrick actually going to Squidward’s house the polite way instead of just breaking and entering?

Maybe they just forgot to place the part where Squidward did something wrong or maybe they tried to make Spongebob and Patrick look like the antagonists but messed it up. I don't know, this one is bad but it I don't have TOO much against it probably because by the time I saw this episode, there were some that did worse. I think that almost all Squidward torture episodes would have been better if the ending had given every character what they deserve. Yeah... I agree, it is a Scumbob episode but there are some that took this plot and dug it deeper.

"I Was A Teenage Gary" is an episode I always enjoy around Halloween.

[@brantchristy3490]

It says Good Neighbor on the back of the Where's Gary case too.

I hate how the trees have leaves, they started forgetting that this show takes place underwater. d;

[@georgebendall7401]

I feel sorry for Squidward he just wanted to enjoy his relaxing Sunday but SpongeBob and Patrick keep ruining it because the two idiots can not get the message through their thick skulls that Squidward does not want them around him

[@fweepers]

I wonder if PIEGUY will rant on the mild ScumBob season 4 episodes such as Funny Pants or Rule of Dumb

[@TheShadowcreator]

I like your new opening!

[@cumcockproductions6433]

I like good neighbors but its been a long while since ive last watched it. I might not like it as much if i rewatch it now tho

[@maxkrut9943]

The spongebob dynamic would be that squidward would act cocky and arrogant around spongebob who is just being nice and this would backfire on squidward making it funny, all the while keeping squidward a likeable character. This episode is kind of fascinating because it's the opposite - spongebob and Patrick arent nice they're just annoying and squidward is reacting like a normal guy would - it's an example of flanderisation, and most shows die once the characters get flanderised, this is my least favourite spongebob episode, it's like the absolute opposite of the camping episode - they should be compared, the camping episode for how to do the spongebob squidward dynamic right and good neighbour's for how not to do it

[@RoninCatholic]

I was just wondering if there'd be a new video from your channel and when I opened KZbin, there it was.

[@knightwing5169]

One thing I will give this episode credit for is that Spongebob and Patrick (briefly) try to get Squidward's house to stop. In the countless Squidward torture episodes that came later, those two barnacleheads seldom, if ever attempt to defuse the situation.

[@hereonly2comment]

This episode came right after my favorite episode, "Skill Crane". It was always a dissapointment :/

[@ShredShady]

But SpongeBob & Patrick realized that they're being unfair to Squidward and made an apology cake saying “Sorry for bugging for you so much” so you're not going to mention that?

[@alexanderklepp]

Yeah, how did he miss that?

[@RidleyKraid187]

I'd Love to see a rant on Whale of a Birthday sometime in the future. After Good Nieghbors, this episode was one of the worst things to come out of season 4

[@summerjonz]

I'm the only one who's not fazed by the toenail scene in house fancy, because my mother got her toenail ripped put once, so she had to cover it up with adhesive bandages until it grew back.

[@nolife6013]

This feels much more like a Season 6 episode. I don't get how it's in the same season as far superior episodes like The Lost Mattress and Skill Crane where Squidward is actually written correctly instead of just being abused and ruined for the sake of slapstick.

[@johnsantos507]

Yours, Mine and Mine is also a SCUMBOB episode.

[@RYLANE.DIXON_2007]

@John Santos | AGREED! In Fact, It's My #1 WORST SBSP Episode In The Entire Series. RATING: Abysmal Episode (0/100). WORST Episode Ever.

[@liklik4115]

i swear, this episode was called "the good neighbor lodge"

[@GoonyBaloney1]

I don't want that yellow creep to come over to my house

[@roberttreacy8271]

Unpopular opinion: I think this episode is more meh than bad (activates flame shield).

[@uforad170]

It's funny, really the only thing I remembered about this episode was that Spongebob and Patrick both where fez hats for no reason.

[@vgjf3618]

I always thought the identity was, Squidward's Sunday Getting Ruined.

[@TheHagfish]

Can't say first, now, can you? MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@LoganWilson]

first

[@tacoman422]

The only way I can really rationalize this episode is that this is Squidward's nightmare, or how he perceives his own life. That is, seeing himself as an innocent victim and his neighbors as impossibly stupid, childish jerks whose sole purpose is to annoy him to no end. There's really no other plausible explanation for the painful flanderization Spongebob and Patrick undergo in this episode...

[@ryanbarth6691]

Wait until you see to love a patty

[@Asew54321]

Question: How many good STP's are there that are NOT bad in modern-season? I'll TRY and start, I didn't find "That Sinking Feeling" too bad. The plot was AMAZING and I kind of like some of the comedy, especially the count-to-three part and the "Eat at the Krusty Krab" thing.

[@Asew54321]

What? That Sinking Feeling is his most hated S7 episode? Really did not see that one coming. But I do think That Sinking Feeling is terribly underrated. And BTW, Patrick! The Game is pretty good in my opinion, but the sister episode is kinda boring (forgot the name)

[@muratkalp7759]

If I was SpongeBob's dad, I would have grounded him for 1 month with no Going outside (except worktime/for work) and hanging out with friends for doing all of these to Squidward.

[@superzilla784]

2:33 That's actually brought up in Truth or Square when Squidward was remembering life before SpongeBob moved to Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob is so terrible that even the writers are making jokes about it

[@granddidit]

Honestly, I forgot this episode existed

[@tokyotorres77]

This has to be the worst episode of season 4 and also one of the worst episodes ever in the entire franchise. SpongeBob and Patrick are really annoying and idiots in the episode. It's one of those Squidwards torture episode. I feel bad for Squidward in this episode and town just punished him basically so this is one of the worst SpongeBob episodes ever and the worst Squidward torture episode ever.

[@lauraharris815]

Mixed messages, along with the status freaking quo, is this shows biggest weakness. It perplexes me. What the heck ARE they trying to have us feel? Do they really still think Squidward and Plankton are evil after everything we've seen? And it's not like they could make them sympathetic on accident either. The most logical solution is that maybe the writers often argue on how they should portray something, and then they kinda try to do it both ways? The bad SB episodes are such a mess.

[@haziqfarhan1369]

you what the dumb part is, apparently some people think squidward is cruel for yelling at spongebob and patrick

[@dominikamimari427]

Man i hated this episode so much even as a kid it's so terrible like this is one of the worst Squidward episode, wow they need to leave him alone

[@JKEBP]

Oh, and this is not the most mean spirited episode of the show. WhoBob WhatPants?

[@portoguy5159]

Are you Happy Now?

[@familybroakajonny]

FIRST and WORST how ironically rhymed😂

[@bryannewman3556]

Do a spongey Bit on Whale of a Birthday?

[@misslady2639]

I was so confused about the robot when I watched this episode the first time.........

[@daliborjovanovic510]

Okay, this is a true story. I remember when I first saw this episode back when I was 10 or so and I remember not caring much about it. I didn’t exactly dislike it per say but compared to all the other episode from the first half of season 4, this is the one that I was never looking forward to rewatching. And here’s the thing. On first watch, I immediately noticed how out of character Spongebob and Patrick were acting. Yeah, kids can’t tell the difference my ass. I certainly could. And on first watch I actually thought that this was intentional, that Spongebob and Patrick were actively pretending to be stupid because they had something planned for Squidward, like, I dunno, they were planning a surprise birthday party for him, which was being organized by Mr. Krabs, Sandy and the other characters, while Spongebob and Patrick were trying to distract Squidward and naturally went overboard with their act. And you can imagine my surprise when the ending came and I was like “Wait…..this wasn’t an act? They really were just that stupid? What was up with that?” You heard right, a 10-year-old thought of a better plotline for this episode on first watch than these professional writers.

[@overanalytical1281]

I liked this episode as a kid only because it was on the cover. I was a dumbass.

[@brandonpaez738]

I never new I needed some Me time regardless if I'm an introvert.

[@vgjf3618]

This is one of 9 "Season 4" episodes, that doesn't feature Mr. Krabs. The others being "Chimps Ahoy", "Ghost Host", "Gift Of Gum", "Hocus Pocus", "Karate Island", "Mrs. Puff, You're Fired", "Patrick Smartpants", & "The Thing".

[@kirbyreviews1970]

There's the one where Squidward gets stuck in a cast for no reason

[@blackyoshi7476]

I think that the writers were thinking if Squidward yells at Spongebob and Patrick that it's justified.

[@lordroy88]

Have squidward take advantage of spongebob and pat WAY too much for the majority of the ep and have spongebob and Patrick accidentally get back on squidward
