Last night I Googled "worst SpongeBob episodes" and immediately found people ranting about the episode Umbrello, GamingSponge, and I were talking about. Some doofus commented, "This is a bad episode, but you guys are taking it WAY too seriously. It's a SHOW for gods sake. Its not supposed to be real.. Duh," (What the what!?!?), and someone with a whole lot more sense replied, "Yeah, but do you expect a five year old to watch this without having nightmares? Even I cringed!" Today I was reflecting on this and thought, "What would bother children more - the monster, or the fact that SpongeBob is yelling at Gary for being attacked, and even trying to save both their lives?" I apologize if this is an unnecessary post. I'm just reiterating how horrible that episode is and how unsettling it would be for children. Sweet mercy pie, how is this episode still airing!? Ugh, I feel sick to my stomach...
