We all have those memories of watching Band Geeks for the first time– discovering mayonnaise is not an instrument, jamming out to “Sweet Victory” and feeling like you were really there in the Bubble Bowl.
On road trips or when it was bedtime, I would watch Band Geeks. When I was a kid, the hot thing before iPods and phones was the Video Now, and one of the discs that came with it was Band Geeks. There is no episode of television more iconic than Band Geeks. Stephanie Sheehan, Managing Editor – Band Geeks Also *foghorn* *seal barking* *seagull chirp* *air horn* *dolphin noise*. This episode certainly convinced young Amar that swearing was an important part of every *seal barking* conversation. While the episode was intended to get kids to learn the dangers of swearing, it definitely did the opposite.
If I was a parent at that time, I would’ve let my kids watch that episode just because it was so *dolphin noise* impressive that some producer actually approved of the *foghorn* episode. Some show writer proposed that they write and air an episode based around swearing, but instead of actually putting in the swearing they use nautical sounds like dolphin noises, foghorns and seal honkings. Let’s just think about this for a second. Turns out their potential friendship was all a ruse for Plankton to obtain the Krabby Patty secret formula anyway, but fear not – Plankton fails and essentially ends up becoming Bubble Bass’ snack.Īmar Batra, Super Senior Staff Photographer- Sailor Mouth In the episode, we see Spongebob at his purest when he tried to befriend Plankton after he nearly steals a Krabby Patty. That’s how ingrained this episode was in my childhood. I had an alarm clock that sang this to me. N is for anywhere and anytime at all, down here in the deep blue sea.
