My favorite Squidward moment is in the episode “Pizza Delivery.” Squidward stands up for SpongeBob after an ungrateful customer says that he refuses to eat his pizza without a drink. It’s just a great scene for a great episode.
Well, this one's on the house!!
Ikr! It’s actually one of my favorite episodes
Love it!😍
The Krusty Krab pizza is the pizza for you and me!😍
I barely remember the whole episode, but didn't Spongebob insisted that the pizza comes to its intended customer unscratch and goes to great lengths to get the job done?
That scene will forever be in my mind and it told me that he cares about the Sponge. -But he normally doesn't say it. (And this is coming from someone, who is indifferent to everything Spongebob).
Low key the best episode
I order the food, you cook the food. The customer gets the food. We do that for 40 years, and then we die
Eyyy supreme leader
How's *OUR* North korea
Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, what do you say?
@@SmittyBacall1858 dang it I was gonna say that
I was wondering for a minute why Kim Jong Un would make a comment on the state of capitalism in a video on Spongebob until I realized it was a quote from Squidward.
"so he cried yee a sweater of tears, and ya kill him!" might be the best line in this show
Yupppppp

Always loved “Christmas Who?” as well. Such a great Squidward moment when he gives away all his worldly possessions just to make people happy. Wish we could see more of that side of Squidward.
SssSssSs-Santa! SssSssSs-Santa! SssSssSs-Santa!
Makes for a great Christmas Special overall
One thing I've always noticed is that squidward is genuinely happy when someone listens to him about his hobbies and interests, and compliments his forms of art. Throughout the show, it's shown that Squidward's artwork and clarinet playing isn't really well-liked by most people around him. Heck, there was a scene showing people fleeing at the sight of squidward holding a clarinet (I think it was in "Krusty koncessionaires") I remember seeing one episode where plankton pretended to like Squidward's clarinet playing to try and get the formula out of him (I believe that was from "sweet and sour squid") and squidward was genuinely happy to see someone love his work. While most other people tend to run away from Squidward's artistic expressions, there is one guy that I've seen consistently supporting him and, as much as Squidward would hate to admit it, it's his absorbent neighbor.
SB is the only guy I've seen to show support and excitement toward squid's art. SB was the only one to by Squidward's art in "out of the picture" and encouraged others to do the same. SB willingly goes to every event where squid publicly plays (although, in an episode I don't remember the name of, SB is shown at one of these concerts with earplugs in, which suggests that he just supports squid as a kind gesture, but he's also the only guy I've seen that did that) and even tried to find any way he could to compliment him (once again, in an episode I don't remember the name of, SB says something along the lines of "all those wrong notes you played made it sound more original!" and it didn't seem like a backhanded compliment either). While we have seen squidward and SpongeBob do stuff together before, like play music, I think an episode where Squid willingly invited SB to show off his art and talents, letting squid ramble on about his creations while SB listens, and generally just finally having someone to his interests to would make for a good episode. I know how rambling on about an interest or hobby can really feel amazing, especially after being alone for a long amount of time. I would love to see an episode where Squid was finally happy while SB finally got some time to hang out with him.
the episode where spongebob had earplugs in at squidward's concert was probably "Squid Noir"
The “original wrong notes” one is from The Paper, a season 1 episode
squidtism
All the worst Squidward episodes have one thing in common; it's just misery for misery's sake. There's no satisfying revenge, no crazy comedic twist, just misery. It lacks the heart, wit, and charm of the best episodes.
You nailed it
THIS
I almost completely agree, but a satisfying revenge? Do you mean that Squidward should take revenge on SpongeBob?
Agreed
True
The older you get the more like squidward you feel .
We start out as Spongebob, grow into Squidward, and either stay as Squidward, become Mr. Krabs, or become Patrick.
Is it bad that i started to relate to him when i was 11?
And the less you feel like spongebob and Patrick
I feel like that's a huge reason that SpongeBob is still relevant 20+ years later. People can still appreciate it as they age and the younger kids can still relate to it. It has just aged like fine wine. 👌
@Bailey Norwalk yeah like me (god squidward is a relatable Character... No I don't kin him)
Idiot Box has to be one of my favorite episodes of Spongebob. I love how it is implied throughout the episode that Spongebob and Patrick AREN'T the ones making all the loud noises; it's actually Squidward using his imagination and simply not realizing it!
Wow that gave me a *whole* New perspective
I really don’t understand why this episode is #1 best.
I never realized that the noises were being imagined by Squidward.
Wha-- no, when would he ever feel guilty as quickly as he did here??? He almost never feels guilty when messing with others!
@@IconicEnemy me neither!
I’d 100% say Band Geeks is the best SpongeBob SquarePants episode ever. It’s full to the brim with hilarious jokes and clever character moments and we finally see Squidward feel happiness.
Definitely in my top ten
Same
"No Patrick horseradish isn't an instrument either."
Underrated line imo, but tbf that's because "Is mayonnaise an instrument?" comes right before and is just so good.
@@r.j.penfold I personally feel “Do instruments of torture count?” Is equally underrated.
@@Galvatron759 damn I forgot about that line! You're right!
Squidward: Does anything
Spongebob: PEACE WAS NEVER AN OPTION
Little yellow book,band geeks and the pizza episode:
''And we will uno reverse that action''
What did Squid do it Pizza Deliveru and ban dgeeks
Watch the episodes there awesome
@@carsonschill1635 oh uno reverse
@@Magikalll Band Geeks gave Squidward a good ending, just like Suction Cup Symphony and in Pizza Delivery Mr. Krabs made them work together and SpongeBob didn't mean to annoy him.
In a lot of these episodes, i feel really bad for squidward
Same here dude, I know the term "Squidward Torture Porn" is a bit of a dead horse and a bit of an ironic meme nowadays(I'e the infamous "THE SECURITY SYSTEM TAKES CONTROL OF SQUIDWARD'S HOUSE" copypasta.)And Squidward may not be the most sympathetic character out there(Hell, in episodes like Prof. Squidward he kinda brings most of it on himself.) but unlike a character like Cartman or Master Shake who pretty much deserves everything bad happening to him, it seems like some episodes Squid's worst crime is just; not wanting to put up with SpongeBob and Patrick's antics.
I am too. I really want him to be happy. Longer than a few minutes of screen time! I know the whole point is for him to be the exact opposite of Spongebob, but enough is enough! There have already been too many episodes and this torture will never end. Squidward deserves a break.
Breath of Fresh Squidward is a perfect way to ruin my day. This is why I personally don’t think Spongebob is the best cartoon/nicktoon. When it shines, it really shines. However when it gets boring, its a snore. When it gets bad, it’s really bad. I always cry in rage at the scene where Spongebob screams at Squidward for Pogo-sticking with Patrick and getting employee of the month. Seeing Squidward cry and gets kicked when he finally gets happy is just depressing. Squidward maybe a jerk at times but being happy while doing nothing wrong for a second for bad Spongebob episodes is the biggest sin. It gives me CatDog vibes which I think is the only bad Nicktoon from the 90’s. Dog is like Spongebob in his worst episodes, and Cat is Squidward getting hurt everytime for no reason most of the time, While the Greasers are just there for giving Cat even more pain.
Thats cause, while Squidward's a self obsessed passive aggressive jerk, he's a self-obsessed passive aggressive jerk who you can completely understand where he's coming from.
Krusty Towers is how to do Squidward Torture correctly.
Also, I heard that it was written for Season 3 but was delayed, which may explain why it's this excellent for post-movie standards.
You could argue the same about every episode before Good Neighbors.
@@ShadowtheRUclipsr523 Lost mattress was awesome Squidward gets karma everytime hed being rude and the sofa gag was awesome I think lost mattress is better than krusty towers
It's definitely good but I think Krusty Towers is better
Exactly
4:11 One thing I like is that Squidward is actually tolerating of both Spongebob and Patrick even allowing them to join him in his swimming pool.
True. Seeing him actually enjoy their company is nice.
So Phantomstrider calls Spongebob Spongey and calls Squidward Squidy. I like that
Same screeny
yeah ciphey

@@engineergaming3119 yeah EY
@Zan or Aleczandria yeah zanny
I like "Dying For Pie" because even though Squidward's life is almost always interrupted by Spongebob, he's willing to make Spongebob's final hours alive happy.
I would have suggested "Pizza Delivery" for the list because even though he can't stand Spongebob most of the time, he knew that he didn't deserve to be screamed at until he cried.
Both are good episodes and when squidward had to watch Gary
I think that if Pizza Delivery was on the list, band geeks would be there too, as both were on his top 10 ever as well
Dying for Pie and Pizza Delivery are some of the best episodes in the show, up there with... Band geeks was the name of that episode right
@@gachalibra9243 yes
Dying for pie is my favorite episode of the show
You know what would be a great episode? One where Squids are tries his hardest to get fired from the Krusty Krab, but everything he does accidentally ends up being helpful. But he ends up being employee of the month in the end, and ends up being surprisingly grateful.
I like that idea.
I genuinely want this
I'd love this!
The episode "Squid's Day Off" was an interesting one.
A GOOD ONE
True
Have you finished those errands
That episode terrified me, mostly because of watching how the combo Squidward's OCD, and paranoia over Spongebob potentially screwing up was slowly driving him insane and it got to the point to where Spongebob got a little terrified of Squidward's descent into madness.
I love in krusty towers that squidwards so happy that he forgives spongebob from causing him to suffer for the first three/four seasons at the time. He even lets him and I THINK patrick swim in his pool!
A little karma for a red krab goes a long way
@@wastelandlegocheem yep just as much as a karen size pack of karma!
@@seangarry8208 i'd happily play smash bros teamed up with my worst enemy if i got to throw krabs in prison for his illegal overwork of staff and underpaying.
No sort of theme but today i finnally completed the pachinko (pinball) machine from mario sunshine. Its very hard , just look it up!
Thats why i said "no sort of theme"
squidward: is happy in modern seasons
spongebob and patrick: UNACCEPTABLE
Nah I haven't seen a squidward torture episode in a while every sense season 9‐12 I haven't seen one squidward torture episode other then squid baby but that's more of just a stupid episode and squid lemonade other than that I haven't seen any squidward torture
I havent seen a squidward torture in a while except for Ink Lemonade
That’s Evilodeon in a nutshell.
@@thejaycrewsshow9827 Pineapple RV
Lemon from Adventure Time definetly.
"We should NEVER deny guests EVEN the most ridiculous requests"
Really I do not think so even with krabby patty with that dususting stuff.
Customer service workers hearing this irl: Bruh
I think Enchanted Tiki Dreams is somewhat of an underrated episode. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not perfect. I wasn’t a huge fan of the ending and the first half did drag on a bit. But it was heartwarming to see Squidward finally getting to relax! I tear up every time he mentions that he’s never been this happy in his life, and it’s just so satisfying to see him not only happy, but even having fun with SpongeBob and Patrick! They were annoying in the first half of the episode, but they definitely gave Squidward a beautiful paradise!
Yeah only somewhat cuz the song became popular on TikTok. It's one of my favorite episodes of all time and call me crazy but this is the only time in the entire series his undeserved torture actually works well cuz it's the reason why he starts crying and wanting to relax and as such the second half isn't just relaxing for the sake of relaxing and makes it more satisfying, genuinely awesome episode.
Squidward: exists
Spongebob and Patrick: Allow is to introduce ourselves!
😐😒
Yes
Us*
I wanted to say that TB and Rocky are better BFB contestant thank you very much
More like: "We're 'bout to end this man's whole career."
Best: two faces of squidward and tiki dream
Worst: ink lemonade
Most disappointing: Pineapple RV
@@TomEyeTheSFMguy no
@@jacobw1780 No, what?
I love Tiki Dream so much
I actually thought Ink Lemonade was an ok episode. That episode is way too overhated.
Lets not forget that Squidville gives the best Patrick joke in the entire show. "Are YOU Squidward?.......that's ok, take your time"
Dying For Pie is one of my absolute favorite episodes in the whole series! It's Squidward at his absolute best, in my opinion.
I'm sorry but I hated tentacle vision. He just wanted his own show and talk about whatever he wants to talk about but everyone doesn't care and they just hijack his show. I really didn't like that one, I can't agree it was a good episode:/
I only hated the part when he got kicked out of his own house, and in the next scene, he's in his bedroom.
That part confused me, but the episode brought back all our main characters, so i guess that was cool
@@cyberz55 That's true
Honestly I have to agree with this. Funny as it was to see how things went, I always feel bitter and unsatisfied watching it because as you said, he just wanted his own show and to talk about whatever he wanted to but everyone ruined it. It's true that it's more interesting than how it would've went without the chaos that occurred, but still I strongly agree.
I hate it, too. And the end he is miserable again. And 80% of the jokes are just annoying
Tentacle vision is an already bad start to season 7
I feel House Fancy deserved an Honorable Mention as it was like Band Geeks, and it was honestly pretty satisfying seeing Squidward succeed after the torture he went through, especially the toe scene.
The torture he did go throught was probably worst then it was in Band Geeks.
Well then again, Band Geeks wasn’t really gross out, but house fancy was, so that’s probably why I guess
@@LocalGooberGoobs that's literally the only thing people don't like about house fancy, the toenail scene. Yeah it's gross af but it really doesn't bring the whole episode down with what it's going for
For me House Fancy is more Meh.
@@infernoROBO I mean, the toenail scene, while brief, was still a part of a portion of the episode where Squidward had to deal with Spongebob's incompetence and his home getting destroyed. The ending was the only redeeming factor of the episode.
I like the episode "House Fancy."
For the episode where Spongebob was being a total jerk to Squidward when he was actually happy for once, that episode has actually always made me sad. However, I think it does have a good message to always support your friends, even if you get jealous.
Yeah curse you spongebob
i like Squidward though.
and i like the way he laugh.
Breath of fresh squidward essentially has Spongy and Squidy swap roles for an episode.
Scumbob
Would’ve been better if he apologizes and lets Squidward be happy
It’s a shame Squidward’s character has been abused so much. Watching him suffer isn’t even funny. Even when I was younger I didn’t find it funny. Though personally I don’t care for tentacle vision, in my opinion it’s just a beat up on Squidward episode. There was nothing charming about it.
Yeah I agree. Squidward is actually a very interesting character and I quite appreciate having him in the show. It's not often you get a character like him who is not just a grumpy stereotype. He ought to be treated like less of a punching bag for the show.
Tentacle Vision was hilarious even though it was poorly written
Sometimes hurt SpongeBob in one episode that why I hate Squidward but is his life this miserable
_Some_ squidward torture jokes were kind of funny (Like the plot of Tentacle Vision), but all the others just made me feel bad for him
He needs to be treated better tbh
Spongebob: *wants Squidward to be happy*
Squidward: *is happy*
Spongebob: *No.. this is not how you play the game*
It honestly pisses me off. I felt so happy for squidward. Ezpecially now that i have been suffering depression, seeing someone clearly depressed be absutely happy for once have his happiness ruined and destroyed kills me on the inside
Was that are you happy now?
When people want you to be like Sponegbob, but you end up like Squidward.
@@MyDogSleepsALot I think they were talking about "breath of fresh squidward". In "Are you happy now?" SB seems happy to see squid smiling at the end, even though his paper creations were being destroyed.
Squidward is the meg of spongebob
Yeah pretty much
Nah, Meg has it way worst
Shut up Meg.
Shut up Squidward.
Megward the Wizard
I remember laughing so hard in tentacle vision when Patrick put his mouth up to the camera and the old lady saying “This is disgusting!”
The fact that the worst squidward episodes are never bad because of what squidward does, really gives a testament to just how great squidward is as a character... squiddy is my favorite cartoon character, which might be a bit obvious...
PhantomStrider: *talks about Squidward episodes*
Me: When is Squidward getting his own show
Yeah a squidward spinoff would be awesome
It's already been confirmed he's getting a spinoff show on netflix
@@stuffedcinema7374 It's actually been deconfirmed like a month ago.
unfortunately they canceled it
Yes Squidward is a great cartoon character on Spongebob
I personally really hated Breath of Fresh Squidward, SpongeBob was just so out of Character, for once Squidward enjoys life!
That episode could actually be good if spongebob wasn't such a jerk to SquidWard
It also seems very hypocritical given that spongebob does everything squidward did there, but squidward is seen as an annoying creep and spongebob isn't.
@@slyninja4444 I think it could be a way for Spongebob to feel a glimpse of what Squidward feels everyday. If you think about it Squidward had a personality thus similar to Spongebob, and during the course of the episode Spongebob was slowly becoming Squidward.
That episode is poorly written too. It started off with Squidward being nice to Spongebob by waking him up every morning and doing all his chores for him. Then the PLOT changes to Squidward being successful and Spongebob being Jealous of his success.
It felt like the Opposite Day Episode
But it is a worse version and the two characters are the opposite
I think the biggest irony in Breath of Fresh Squidward is that Spongebob actually gets a taste of his own medicine. Squidward starts breaking into his house, almost constantly gets up in his personal space, intrudes on his job, and gets employee of the month while Sponge gets brushed aside. There's no real introspection at the end about it and of course nothing changes, he'll just keep breaking into Squid's house and pester him to madness like this episode never happened.
I love the episode where Squidward eats krabby patties and finds out he likes them.
Squidward is a closet character to an average person
Whale Watching from Season Eleven is a favorite of mine that I think you might like. It's Squidward looking after Pearl while Mr. Krabs is away and apparently it's something he's done since she was a baby, while she wants to go out to see a boy she likes. It's really nice to see their interactions and relationship. They don't really interact much, but seem to have a lot in common when I think about it. They both like boy bands and tend to get annoyed with other people's antics. It's sweet to see how hard Squidward tries to take care of her, even though he does have personal reasons for doing it. The ending is very sweet with how they end up bonding and what he does for her. It's something I like about some of the newer episodes where they've been putting some more focus on other characters like Larry, Pearl, Karen, Mrs. Puff and Sandy. I've always liked them since they make the world of the show feel that more "real" with all the other citizens of Bikini Bottom. They've even had some focus on the French Narrator and the My Leg guy.
I watched only first six seasons. But some episodes cause me so much pain...
Glad the modern episodes are improving.
*sees season 12-13-????* Uhhhhh, WHAT?!
I kinda wish Enchanted Tiki Dreams got at least a slight mention in this video because that one honestly was really enjoyable. Especially since Spongebob and Patrick actively tried to cheer Squidward up and make him happy.
after not letting him have any sleep and bugging him a day eariler.
they're just fixing their problem in the best way possible
I swear, the part in Krusty Towers where Patrick attempts to sign the hotel register gets me every time.
The worst ones are definitely, as Mr. Enter would call them, the “Squidward torture porn” episodes.
Accurate
@• Sherif Yet •
He means the episodes where it's just Squidward suffering
Pretty much. They fit the description.
LMAO IM-
Oh hey! I remember those!
Ah Sweet Victory, that song is a pure masterpiece
There was one episode, I believe season 10 or 11, where the 3 idiots had to go mining mustard or something & I remember liking it because it was one of the first times it felt like Squidward didn't outright hate just being around Spongebob & Patrick, like he was just the boring friend of the group, rather than a guy who just hates being here. I don't know, I just like to think that the 10-11 seasons of time with Sponge & Pat made them grow on him a little. I dont remember much about it, I first saw it a few years ago & never happened to catch it again.
Seasons 10 + tend to portray Squidward more like that. As a dull friend. And that's definitely my preferred portrayal
@@phantomstrider Same. Some people have tried to argue that it's out of character, but again, I argue that it is more growth of a character, & now, whether it's good or bad (I havent seen the later two movies) Sponge on the run proves that this is Squidward growing on his dumber two friends.
You're kinda right and it's from season 11 and it's called Mustard O' Mine.
Glad they cut us a break from his pain cycle.
I LOVED that ep!
I actually relate to the “Fresh breath of Squidward” episode quite well. I think I know why Spongebob was acting that way. I myself for a long time struggled with depression and finding a reason to be happy in life for many years. My st*p mom used it as a reason to talk down to me and make me feel like I was crazy, and acted like she cared to make herself look better. But now that I actually did get proper help and treatment, I’m a completely different person now compared to teenage me. Now she acts like I was faking being depressed and acting like I shouldn’t have “cured my depression” so quickly. Though the truth is I still struggle with my severe depression, I’m actually finding a purpose in my life again. So basically, I believe in that episode, when Squidward was finally being happy and enjoying life, Spongebob was no longer seen as “being the kind person he was to make Squidward happy.” Squidward didn’t “need” (I know he was very annoyed by spongebob and he never really made him happy at all) him anymore because he found that happiness all on his own. Spongebob no longer had a trophy to hold above Squidward or an excuse to be seen as a “good guy” because Squidward was no longer sad. Basically what I got from that episode is this, people don’t truly care if you are depressed or sad unless it makes them look good by “helping you.” And when you’re happy, they don’t want you around.
Now I know it was a bad episode and Spongebob is not that way at all and actually cared about Squidward’s well being, but I just wanted to put my insight and idea on this being a person struggling with depression myself.

Keep in mind that in Squidville, Squidward moved out, but he misses Spongebob too much, and every time he quits or gets fired from the Krusty Krab, he got rehired. That means that Squidward is trapped in bikini Bottom, unable to move out and locked in there for the rest of his life
He needs to find a way to turn down the insanity. Completely geting rid of it bored him to pieces and you saw what too much does to him.

Lol, he's like "Jesus christ, Suidward! i already just said that they're not, you didn't have to yell!" XD
Idiot box was one of my favourite episodes of all time. I remember watching it since I was 9 years old. This gave a lot of my memories. I enjoyed watching it
I love Squidward. He is my favorite character, mostly because he reminds me of myself. He may have his really terrible moments and may act like a prick at times, but I love how he can be a great friend, and isn't afraid to speak his mind.
I thought many people love Squidward. Actually I don't like that show. There are good episodes, but it's not my, you know. It's so much pain... Sorry. But Squidward was really good character.
Yep I always enjoyed watching him on screen. He always seemed like the most believable character and I always found it highlighted the comic nature of the show. The show just wouldn't be the same without him.
My absolute favorite showcasing of Squidward is in the "Christmas Who?" Christmas special. I just really love seeing him appreciating SpongeBob and giving back to him and Bikini Bottom. Its probably my favorite thing to watch at Christmas
Krusty Towers is an extremely underrated episode. The plot is genius especially considering that it’s a season 4 episode
Overrated*
@@GiovanniKody100 underrated because it’s from season 4. Not many episodes were this good after season 3
I think one of the good ones was “Band Geeks”
Squidward got his dream to be the leader of his newly formed band with Spongebob, Patrick, Plankton, ETC. He saw his worst enemy Squilliam get humiliated by his band as he passes out. In the end he jumps in air from joy as the music fades away.
Good work on this amazing video!
I can see why somebody could enjoy it, but I personally DESPISED tentacle vision. It was just an episode that gave poor squidward nothing but torture, and the characters in the episode were more flanderized and dumbed down then they have EVER been. A few clever jokes, but nothing to write home about.
Not gonna lie I think Christmas Who should’ve been the number 1 best. It was such a well written episode and Squidward really shines the most in this episode, showing how much he really cares about not only spongebob, but everyone in bikini bottom. It definitely shows us his greatest character growth and is heartwarming
True but he did mention that episode in best and worst Spongebob specials, also it could be considered that Squidward isn’t the main character of the episode
Band Geeks
100%. That’s a top 5 for sure
I just can't stand watching that episode
I want to bring up a very good point about something, when SpongeBob and Patrick used their imagination to create whatever scenario happens in their box it makes me think of how much the power of our imagination has so much influence when people create media in our life like video games, animations, art etc and I think its always important to realize the power our minds when we use our imagination.
Good message SpongeBob I can respect it 👍
I also like the early season 2 Squidward episode “Squid’s Day Off.” This is the one where I think Mr. Krabs’ arms fall off and he’s rushed to the hospital and he puts Squidward in charge of the Krusty Krab while he’s not there. Squidward uses this opportunity to “promote” Spongebob to cashier in addition to fry cook so he can goof off the rest of the day. Suddenly his conscious gets the better of him and he constantly runs back and forth between his house and the Krusty Krab to check to make sure Soongebob hasn’t destroyed the Krusty Krab in some way. Each time he returns to the Krusty Krab he finds everything in order. Over the course of the episode he slowly looses his mind and ends up running naked from the bath back to the Krusty Krab and yells at Soongebob for not having destroyed the place. Then Spongebob realizes they haven’t had a customer all day and the “open” sign had been stuck at “Closed.” This episode is great because out of all of the Squid torture episodes this is the only one where he tortures himself and is not tortured by Spongebob or Patrick. He’s playing mind games with himself and that’s the mark of really great writing!
I don't mind Squidward being put through misfortune in episodes, unless if there's no other reason for it other than just to make him suffer and be miserable because the episode demands it. If he were to do something to deserve it like being a jerk to Spongebob in the episode and were to be getting his comeuppance, the humor revolving around his misery is actually funny and doesn't go too far into pity territory, those would be good justifications for his misfortunes, and a lot of the episodes during season 6 lacked that often and it's just unpleasant and unfunny.
Squidward: Is happy and having a good time
Spongebob: Wait...that's illegal
Squidward has to be one of my favorite characters.
He's so relatable
especially in my current residence
spongebob in breath of fresh squidward honestly feels like a whole different character, he just asks so different
Krusty Towers is one of my favorite episodes from the entire show.
Same
Sb-129 would be one of, if not my favorite Spongebob episode.
I love that episode too.
My personal second favorite. Only No Free Rides can beat it.
It's def the best season 4 episode. Even better than "Have you seem the snail."
4:10 Actually, if you watch the episode 'Can You Spare a Dime,' you can see that quitting the Krusty Krab doesn't work out for him.
And the episode Squidsville where he moves out of Bikini Bottom and into a gated community of squids shows that moving out of Bikini Bottom does not work out for him.
See as an adult I relate to Squidward more than anyone else in the show, so any episode where he’s genuinely happy for even a moment is an absolute win
I like Squidward, but my favorite character has got to be Plankton. He's my favorite villain. He gives me motivation to chase my dreams like he chases after dat formula. Can you please do a top 5 best/worst Plankton episodes list.
Yeah and Gary and Sandy and Mr. Krabs
@GamerGirl107 I know. But how about Gary episodes? Or maybe episodes based on location, like Jellyfish Fields or Goo Lagoon
The thing with Ink Lemonade, where everyone became appalled when they learned it was Squidward's ink, in Japan, that wouldn't be an issue, since a type of food they serve there is Ink Spaghetti, a spaghetti sauce mixed with squid ink and is incredibly popular there.
Can imagine the eye rolling and confusion of the Japanese viewers when they saw that episode.
The Japense would be scarred 4 Life
is that a jojo reference?
Squid ink is eaten around the world, I guess it would be different if it comes from an individual you knew though.

@@yaboique6650 rude.
Personally, I think Squidward is one of the most well written characters in history
Good for you I guess but personally I think squidwards is a ok character
In my opinion "SB-129" is the best Episode! Loving it.
„Can you spare a dime?“ is one of my favourite episodes of all time where Squidward is fired and Spongebob invites him to live in his house.
Squidward is just too relatable the older you get. Especially if you work in retail.
Choir boys is an example of a decrease in quality for SpongeBob, I may not have noticed it when I was a kid but I do know now and I did notice how slow it was and that aggravated me.
“The paper” and “just one bite” have to be among the best
I agree with Tentacle-Vision, it really reminds me of one of my favorite kids picture books called The Wrong Book. The premise is this character is trying to tell us what the book is about and all these random characters constantly come into the book and interrupt him and he's getting more and more angry until he finally had enough and lashes out at them all. It was pretty popular at one of my old primary schools. But here, instead of a boy trying to host a book and having these random characters constantly come in and interrupt him, it's Squidward trying to host a TV show and having the other characters constantly come in and interrupt him. Also, with Idiot Box, that episode is pretty relatable to me surprisingly. A lot of the Persona 3 FES fanboys cannot stand Persona 3 Portable's visual novel cutscenes, but I deal with it using my 🌈imagination🌈. Basically, I imagine the cutscenes playing out the way they're meant to be played out, something I wish the P3 fanboys would try to do. I'm pretty much SpongeBob and Patrick in this episode and the angry P3 fanboys are Squidward in the same episode, where they have no imagination at all and would rather enjoy what they see.
Me throughout the entire video "Choir Boys will be the worst" I was right. 21:01 Yes! But I don't think an episode this bad will be in season 2. You mean season 6, mate.
Doh! How'd I miss that typo XD
That line in the inside job episode "Sounds that make Squidward upset" really proves how SB purposefully tries to do everything to make Squidward's life miserable. Like, he needs to leave him alone!
I think it’s supposed to mean that those sounds that they both hear makes squidward upset and spongebob has that knowledge in his brain
I hate it when theories like this are treated as fact, because the writers clearly didn't intend for it to be interpreted this way and all it does is make it seem like people are trying to FIND reasons to hate the mid season episodes, and yes I am also referring to TheMysteriousMr.Enter's similar theory about Patrick's "you can't expect my usual brand of stupidity" comment from "The Card" as well.
I'm not sure if anyone has brought them up, but I wanted to give a shout out to "Naughty Nautical Neighbors" and "Squid's Day Off". Not only are they some of my favorite Squidward episodes, but they're perfect examples of the "Squidward Torture" premise done right. I say this because most of the humor is around Squidward being at the back end of the jokes, but unlike most of the episodes from the worst list, Squidward has actually done things that made the torture feel warranted, like causing Spongebob and Patrick to fight or lie and say he's running errands when he's instead giving himself a day off. It's karma, which most later episodes forget to do in order to make everything he gets feel at least a little bit warranted.
Honestly, I would’ve chosen squid’s visit(another season 6 episode, how surprising) because of just how mercilessly squidward gets psychologically tortured and abused all because he wanted to get his vacuum back that spongebob intentionally stole to get him to come over, and on top of the absolute creepiness and absurdity of making his home look exactly like squidward’s to the point where it gets disturbing. It’s really just an awful episode all around, and really just shows the absolute worst that season 6 has to offer
Edit: oh, and to wrap up the misery, squidward’s house burns down at the end. All with no justification on how he deserved any of this whatsoever
I could call "Squid's Visit" a "SpongeBob is a Stalker" episode.
Yeah, the only good thing that happens to him is that he gets to stay in SpongeBob's house
@@SHOOPY2021are you sure that's a good thing?
@@PizzaMadeMeFat He gets to stay in a replica of his house while the man who basically caused his house to burn down sleeps in the ashes of it, so yeah, I think it's a good thing
Good Neighbors was one of the many, many episodes where I noticed the show's decline in quality! I hated it as a kid and I still hate it now!
Same that is a episode where after all that nonsense and Squidward’s angry outbursts (justifiably so but too much), it made me feel bad.
Truly a sign that the show was going down the tubes.
Here’s a weird continuity guff: After Squidward gets taken to the hospital from the paint accident. It cuts to Spongebob’s meeting and taking role and calling out Squid’s name which we saw earlier both Spongebob and Patrick see Squidward go to the hospital.
The writers didn’t notice that for a rewrite.
Same I always aside from the first viewing of the episode hated it it’s so bad
Some people consider "Good Neighbors" the episode that caused the show to go downhill. And trust me, the quality doesn't get much better until around Season 9.
Good Neighbors is a decline of quality, but It is still enjoyable (Decent Episode)
To Love a Patty was the first BAD episode for ScumBob FilthPants in my book
Same
"Isn't there anything on that isn't about boxes?"
I was honestly so surprised pizza delivery wasn’t on this list it was great character development
22:53 THIS GENUINELY MADE ME LAUGH BECAUSE OF HOW BAD HE SOUNDS
My List of the worst squidward episodes:
5. Breath of Fresh Squidward
4. Cephalopod Lodge
3. Choir Boys
2. Boating Buddies
1. Squid Baby
Nice list!
How isnt Squid Vision not on this list?
@@ayrikdoesmemes you mean Tentacle-Vision, I mostly just found that more boring than infuriating.
OH DEAR FLIPPING JEEBUS SQUID BABY
Haven’t seen squid baby yet! But I have seen clips tho...
Oof I have an entirely different opinion about the episode “Tentacle Vision”. I actually disliked it as a kid and had considered it another Squidward torture porn episode.
Same. I actually hate it lol. All the characters just annoying him when he has his chance to shine and then when he gets kicked out of his own house :/
I was so confused seeing that on the list. It's like, exactly what he described he disliked in boating buddies
@@nutquesadilla5075 Yeah me too.
I don’t want hate on Phantomstrider’s opinion but I really didn’t see a similarity in humor with “Tentacle Vision” to the Looney Toons episode “Duck Amuck”.
That Looney Toons episode was funny because Bugs as the animator was trolling Daffy by changing the background and his appearance for laughs.
In “Tentacle Vision”, Sponge and his friends where actively bothering and upstaging Squidward in his TV show for their own selfish benefits.
It doesn’t feel like the same energy and isn’t really funny.
@@Jackal_El_Lobo34 yup, definitely
@@Jackal_El_Lobo34 yes, it's self contradicting
Personally I think enchanted tiki dreams is my favourite Squidward episode because Spongebob and Patrick Is really trying to make Squidward happy and have some peace.
18:52 Squidward’s smirk is sending me 😂
18:22 "I just really *DIG* Squidward's analogy here."
21:20 "imagine a blimp crash". Oh the humanity!
I love the pizza episode just because at the end squidward was kind to spongebob and that felt heartwarming
honestly, I would've considered Skill Crane on the list, as a best contenders, because really it is just so funny, and very well written.
Pizza delivery: Am I a joke to you?
Pizza delivery is too classic to be on this list
@@thejaycrewsshow9827 no its more SpongeBob
He had already talked about it, and he said he tries to avoid episodes he already talked about
@@nicomom9534 That's true.
If a women became pregnant at the same time as this commiet. The child would have been born right know
Honestly, I would have liked to see Born Again Krabs on this list (at least as an honorable mention).
I always liked seeing squidward stand up to Mr Krabs (both for Spongebob and the selling of an old krabby patty).
18:23 "I just really "dig" squidward's analogy here"
**Shows Squidward digging**
As kids we wanted to punch or slap him, but when we grow up we really wanna give poor Squiddy a hug
gotta say, though, i DO love the "recumbent bicycle" line from Boating Buddies :)
You want to talk about character torture, I think that Lincoln Loud from The Loud House got quite a bit of it himself. Maybe not the same amount of times Squidward has suffered...but still, he's had his share of terrible moments.
The worst part is that people actually LIKED seeing him be subjected to this. In short, a Lincoln Torture List seems like a good video idea
A few I can name
No Such Luck (My 2nd worst Loud House Episode, my #1 now is A Grave Mistake)
Brawl in the Family
Slueth or Consequences
The Green House
Making the Grade
One of the Boys
It's a (x4) Loud House
Sounds of Silence
Friends in Dry Places (I have yet to see it, I only heard of it since Yoshi Player, put it in his Bottom 5 of Season 4)
Kings of the Con
@@animationrainritewolf8388 Don't forget Schooled
@@sadlobster1 I have yet to watch that Episode
@@animationrainritewolf8388 I won't spoil too much of it...but if I can describe it to you, it would be like this.
If you thought the events of the episode Middle Men were Lincoln's worst experience with Middle School, you ain't seen nothin' yet
Sad thing is, now that we’ve seen this version of Spongebob, the writers are gonna keep him like this for a long time. And there’s nothing we can do about it
God damn it!
no one gonna talk abt how strider calls Spongebob a "yellow dishcloth" because that was funny as hell.
