I think it was pretty clear that he said total. I understand that you were doing it in good faith but you gotta be careful right there.

As a tip, don't use the "-__-" smiley whenever correcting them. It'll make you look extremely pretentious and possibly shame them.

I'm too lazy to write how many amazing, good, meh, bad and horrible episodes. As you can see there are a lot good in this season IMO. So I like season 7 actually.

Season 7: 7.5/10 (WAIT, WHAT?)

By the way, I wonder why you hate Whelk Attack and like Stuck in the Wringer.

As for you More_SpongeBob_Sandy, SpongeBob's oblivous bothered me a little in Model Sponge but It works unlike in A Pal for Gary. I found the episode funny for most part.
 
I added comments to your final S6 ratings and tweaked my comments for S7 a little (Wasn't being harsh enough on the season)

Yes, what Plankton and Krabs did was wrong, but the episode made it clear that they were doing something wrong. I can actually forgive that and gross-out completely, mainly because it tries to give a message about how you should watch what you eat. And they managed to get the message across without being so forced. Plus, I found this episode really funny.

For Squidward In Clarinetland, Spongebob didn't torture Squidward at all. The fact that they had to share a locker was Mr. Krabs' decision, and if you're referring to Spongebob running away with the clarinet constantly, again, that's not his fault. That was only part of a nightmare that Squidward was having. And to be fair, at the end, Spongebob just wanted to give Squidward his clarinet, so I can let him slide, as he wasn't doing anything wrong in this episode. I can understand why some people wouldn't like this episode. As much as I like the nightmare sequence, it's not for everyone. And the plot, while a tad confusing, manages to be pretty solid at least. It wasn't contrived, boring, and nonsensical like The Main Drain, thank goodness.

As for Love That Squid, yeah, it may be a bit cliche and boring, but I also found it kind of cute and amusing. It was nice to see someone get a partner, too (which is why I also like Gary In Love, along with the fact that Spongebob doesn't act like an oblivious idiot in that episode). I can see why you would find it boring, as a lot of romance stories tend to be. =/

Okay, so I rewatched Greasy Buffons, and WOW was I wrong about this episode! The only reason why I used to hate the episode is pretty much because of how I thought the grease was really disgusting and how the customers were grossly getting fed to it. But when I rewatched the episode, I realized that, aside from all the gross-out, that this episode is really great! The Plankton vs Krabs rivalry worked REALLY well in this episode and it was hilarious in some parts! Their restaurants were actually competing with each other, instead of the usual Plankton's restaurant being a failure and Mr. Krabs' restaurant being a success, and it was really fun to watch both restaurants getting customers due to their ridiculous, yet funny, attempts. (Oh, and by the way, this episode actually sort of referenced Mr. Krabs' and Plankton's past friendship.) And then we have SpongeBob, who was actually really likable in this episode and he was actually the intelligent one in the episode! Yay! I love seeing that. I really do! ^_^ He was not oblivious to the fact that what they're doing is completely wrong and unhealthy, and it was great that he actually put an end to it, even if it was very lucrative. And yes, the episode did give out the message that people should watch what they eat, and they definitely did execute the message properly. I guess the gross-out was actually used as an advantage of some sorts to convey this message that eating unhealthy foods all the time can be really hazardous to your health. So I will definitely change my rating to an AMAZING, especially due to the fact that this episode is just downright hilarious! :) And I really should stop judging episodes based on their gross-out, so I can really discover how great the episode really is. And hey, that's why I like Gift of Gum and The Splinter, because I completely ignored the gross-out for those episodes and I judged the episodes for everything else, which I actually did like.

And I also rewatched Squidward in Clarinetland, and now I like the episode a lot more too! Some parts are still pretty confusing to me, but I'll get to that after I tell you what I liked about it. And yeah, SpongeBob was actually pretty decent to Squidward in this episode. The "torture" that I was referring to was how he kept moving and touching Squidward's clarinet, when he told him not to, and how he kept renovating the locker, which made Squidward feel uneasy. I was fine about Mr. Krabs' decision to make them share lockers, but SpongeBob was kind of being ridiculous, and he really should've just stayed put. He really wasn't doing anything intentionally wrong, but still, he should've just left the locker alone for the whole day. But anyway, for the nightmare scene, I actually realized how good it was. :) It was much less creepier than I thought it was, and the ONLY thing I don't like about the nightmare scene was the Keeper eagle head thing. I have to admit, THAT was kinda creepy. That's not something I would ever except to see in a SpongeBob episode, and it was just really random. But everything else was actually really good and fun to watch! So the nightmare scene is actually one of my favorite parts of the episode, and much better than I thought it was! :) However, here's what confused me about the episode: Was Squidward's "nightmare" scene actually real or just a nightmare? The episode really doesn't make that clear. And why does he start having this nightmare in the first place, when all he was doing was looking for his clarinet in the locker? And when does he start having the nightmare and when does he stop? And when he was having this "nightmare", was he sleeping or hallucinating? Squidward really seemed to believe that what he went through was real, as he stated that we wanted SpongeBob to go through the same nightmare as he did. And it is kind of implied that SpongeBob did end up going through the nightmare scene since he said, "You don't know what I had to go through to get this." But if he went through the nightmare scene, then that would mean that it was real, right? So the locker is haunted, or what? But if it was just a nightmare of Squidward's, then how and why would SpongeBob have the same nightmare in the locker? So yeah, this is exactly what confused me about the episode. To sum it all up, I was confused of whether the nightmare scene was real or just a dream, and about what happened to SpongeBob after Squidward stuffed him in the locker. And also, I didn't really like the ending of the episode, since Squidward never got to actually play in his clarinet rehersal, and even though SpongeBob only wanted to give the clarinet back, Squidward ended up running away. And I'm also wondering this: Why did he ended up running away? So... here's what I think of the episode: I liked many parts of the episode, as it was pretty funny; the nightmare scene was really creative, fun, and yes, pretty amazing; and SpongeBob was likable at the least. BUT, some things I dislike about the episode are SpongeBob's ridiculousness (WOULD IT KILL HIM TO LEAVE THE LOCKER ALONE FOR THAT ONE DAY?!), the ending, and most importantly, the extremely confusing things about the episode that really perplex me and actually keep me from truly enjoying the episode. So I might just change my rating to a "Meh." But actually, if a lot of things in this episode weren't so confusing to me, then I would definitely consider it "Good," because that's pretty much my main complaint about the episode. I can definitely let my other two complaints about the episode slide, because SpongeBob, as ridiculous as he was, really wasn't intentionally doing anything wrong. So I'm just wondering if you could possibly explain the things that confused me in the episode so they could seem less confusing to me? That would be nice of you. :) But yes, as much as this episode is really confusing to me, the episode was definitely NOT contrived, boring, or nonsensical like The Main Drain.

I also rewatched Love That Squid, and guess what?! Once again, I was COMPLETELY wrong about the episode! It is amazing! :lol: I take back what I said about the episode being boring, because I just realized that this episode is actually pretty funny, and it actually did not bore me at all upon rewatching it. And I admit, I was pretty foolish of calling this episode cliche. It's pretty much like calling all romances cliche, and that's a pretty stupid thing to say. =/ Sorry about that. Anyway, about the episode: Squidward falling in love with Squilvia was pretty awesome because we actually did get to see Squidward finally get a partner! :D And what makes this episode SO amazing, is the fact that Squidward was actually nice to SpongeBob!!! This is something that post-movie episodes tend to lack, since it's usually just Squidward hating SpongeBob and being tortured and annoyed by him, and never considering him as a friend. But in this episode, Squidward ACTUALLY treats SpongeBob as a FRIEND! ^_^ He comes to him for advice, they talk in a friendly manner, and it was just really nice to see Squidward actually recognizing SpongeBob as a friend in this episode. (Another post-movie episode that comes to mind where Squidward treats SpongeBob as a friend is in "The Two Faces of Squidward", which is pretty much a flawless episode.) So yeah, I thought that whole scene with Squilvia being persuaded to go on a date with Squidward was really awesome and funny. And for the practice date scene, I actually did like it a lot more than I used to, and it was WAY much funnier and less boring than I remember it to be! :) But, I was a little annoyed by the fact that SpongeBob was kind of being ridiculous by making the practice date a little more frustrating to Squiddy, but perhaps he was just testing him? And SpongeBob actually did seem to know a lot about dating and love, and he gave Squidward some pretty good advice. But obviously, due to SpongeBob's ridiculousness, Squidward thought that SpongeBob was just being a waste of time and not helping him at all, and he did not realize that the advice that SpongeBob gave was actually good. So I think that's why he ended up yelling at SpongeBob. And I got to admit, what Squidward said to SpongeBob was REALLY cruel. BUT... the ending of the episodes saves all of this! Everything works out for Squidward, as Squilvia ended up loving him even more after seeing him yell at SpongeBob. And the last thing that Squidward says to SpongeBob, "SpongeBob, I'm dreamy!" in the same friendly manner like he was in the beginning in the episode, just COMPLETELY REDEEMED the episode!!! :D Because of this quote, I can let Squidward's harsh words and SpongeBob's ridiculousness slide! This implies that Squidward did not mean those cruel things he said to SpongeBob, and he just said those things because he thought that SpongeBob's practice date was just a waste of time, when it is in fact not, as SpongeBob being "ridiculous" was actually helpful. I'm sure Squidward realizes that SpongeBob's practice date was in fact helpful, and that he will successfully use what SpongeBob taught him on the date! ^_^ Overall, the ending was fantastic; the episode was really funny; the character dynamic between SpongeBob and Squidward was flawless; Squidward and Squilvia's relationship was, like you said, cute and amusing; and this episode is a perfect example of a romantic comedy DONE RIGHT! :) So I will definitely change my rating to an AMAZING!!! Heck, this episode even might be one of my favorites of post-movie SpongeBob!

And, since you mentioned Gary in Love, I decided to rewatch that one too! And so once again, I was wrong about this episode too! Gary falling in love with Mary was actually pretty cute, and the episode was overall really funny. It was great to see Gary's devotion to love, that he even went out in the middle of the night in hopes of seeing her. Kinda weird... but hey, that was an act of true love and love sickness, so I can "sort of" see why he would do that. But he actually made SpongeBob a little worried, even though he was actually pretty optimistic in hoping to find Gary! Anyway, those three gangster snails were a really nice touch to the episode, and I liked them as characters! They were actually really funny! XD And it was great that they added some action, suspense, and humor into the episode, and they served as great antagonists to Runt... I mean, Gary, haha. So they were definitely one of the best aspects of the episode. Oh, and I loved the music that played whenever they appeared, which is actually the title card music for "Whatever Happen to SpongeBob." (I know you hate that episode and all, but I actually really think that its title card music is really good!) Anyway, like you said, SpongeBob was really likable in this episode, and he definitely was not an oblivious idiot. (Well, other than the fact that he thought Gary was kidnapped, but I actually think that it's believable that he would think that, and it was pretty funny too. :P) And when he found out that Gary was in love, he was such a good sport about it! He wasn't even mad that Gary wandered off without permission! Now that's the lovable Spongy that we all want to see, instead of that insanely oblivious and nasty "SpongeBob" that we saw in the godawful "A Pal for Gary." Anyway, the ending was fairly good, and SpongeBob did feel sorry for Gary's lost love. It is weird that Mary was pretty much cheating on that other "allegedly handsomer" snail... but whatever, I guess. And it was great that Gary became friends with the "not-so gangster anymore" snail, too. I will definitely change my rating of this episode to an AMAZING. :lol: I really enjoyed this one. Just like Love That Squid, this episode SUCCEEDED as a romantic comedy! The gang snails were awesome, the episode was really funny, SpongeBob was likable, and Gary experiencing love was cute (and quite action-packed) to watch!

Now here's one last thing I got to say: THANK YOU SO MUCH, Gordok!!! ^_^ I would've never realized how good these episodes really were, if it wasn't for you! I've seen these episodes at least once or twice, and the last time I've seen them were a few years ago, and for some reason, I remember not liking them. (This was back when I pretty much gave up on the show, so I think I was probably starting to become too cynical when I was watching these Season 7 episodes, due to the fact that a majority of this season's episodes are indeed bad. So I probably barely gave these episodes a chance and just hated them because of the fact that they came from Season 7.) And I always assumed that I'd still hate these episodes, so I never bothered to rewatch them. But thanks to you, I finally decided to, and WOW. These episodes are some of the best that I have ever seen in post-movie SpongeBob, and I love them so much! Therefore, thank you so much for helping me discover these hidden gems in the series. I really appreciate it. :)

And just wondering, are there any other Season 7 episodes that I listed as Bad or Meh that you like? I would love to give more Season 7 episodes a chance, so I need to know which ones that I should rewatch.

You rock man. This is why I always find your comments interesting because sometimes they make me want to look an episode differently than I did previously and maybe to see if there's at least something that I like about it that I didn't notice before. Some episodes for me have been better upon me rewatching them or at least not as bad I thought they were and others, you know.

The episode really doesn't make that clear. And why does he start having this nightmare in the first place, when all he was doing was looking for his clarinet in the locker? And when does he start having the nightmare and when does he stop? And when he was having this "nightmare", was he sleeping or hallucinating? Squidward really seemed to believe that what he went through was real, as he stated that we wanted SpongeBob to go through the same nightmare as he did. And it is kind of implied that SpongeBob did end up going through the nightmare scene since he said, "You don't know what I had to go through to get this." But if he went through the nightmare scene, then that would mean that it was real, right? So the locker is haunted, or what? But if it was just a nightmare of Squidward's, then how and why would SpongeBob have the same nightmare in the locker? So yeah, this is exactly what confused me about the episode. To sum it all up, I was confused of whether the nightmare scene was real or just a dream, and about what happened to SpongeBob after Squidward stuffed him in the locker. And also, I didn't really like the ending of the episode, since Squidward never got to actually play in his clarinet rehersal, and even though SpongeBob only wanted to give the clarinet back, Squidward ended up running away. And I'm also wondering this: Why did he ended up running away? So... here's what I think of the episode: I liked many parts of the episode, as it was pretty funny; the nightmare scene was really creative, fun, and yes, pretty amazing; and SpongeBob was likable at the least. BUT, some things I dislike about the episode are SpongeBob's ridiculousness (WOULD IT KILL HIM TO LEAVE THE LOCKER ALONE FOR THAT ONE DAY?!), the ending, and most importantly, the extremely confusing things about the episode that really perplex me and actually keep me from truly enjoying the episode. So I might just change my rating to a "Meh." But actually, if a lot of things in this episode weren't so confusing to me, then I would definitely consider it "Good," because that's pretty much my main complaint about the episode. I can definitely let my other two complaints about the episode slide, because SpongeBob, as ridiculous as he was, really wasn't intentionally doing anything wrong. So I'm just wondering if you could possibly explain the things that confused me in the episode so they could seem less confusing to me? That would be nice of you. :) But yes, as much as this episode is really confusing to me, the episode was definitely NOT contrived, boring, or nonsensical like The Main Drain.

I also rewatched Love That Squid, and guess what?! Once again, I was COMPLETELY wrong about the episode! It is amazing! :lol: I take back what I said about the episode being boring, because I just realized that this episode is actually pretty funny, and it actually did not bore me at all upon rewatching it. And I admit, I was pretty foolish of calling this episode cliche. It's pretty much like calling all romances cliche, and that's a pretty stupid thing to say. =/ Sorry about that. Anyway, about the episode: Squidward falling in love with Squilvia was pretty awesome because we actually did get to see Squidward finally get a partner! :D And what makes this episode SO amazing, is the fact that Squidward was actually nice to SpongeBob!!! This is something that post-movie episodes tend to lack, since it's usually just Squidward hating SpongeBob and being tortured and annoyed by him, and never considering him as a friend. But in this episode, Squidward ACTUALLY treats SpongeBob as a FRIEND! ^_^ He comes to him for advice, they talk in a friendly manner, and it was just really nice to see Squidward actually recognizing SpongeBob as a friend in this episode. (Another post-movie episode that comes to mind where Squidward treats SpongeBob as a friend is in "The Two Faces of Squidward", which is pretty much a flawless episode.) So yeah, I thought that whole scene with Squilvia being persuaded to go on a date with Squidward was really awesome and funny. And for the practice date scene, I actually did like it a lot more than I used to, and it was WAY much funnier and less boring than I remember it to be! :) But, I was a little annoyed by the fact that SpongeBob was kind of being ridiculous by making the practice date a little more frustrating to Squiddy, but perhaps he was just testing him? And SpongeBob actually did seem to know a lot about dating and love, and he gave Squidward some pretty good advice. But obviously, due to SpongeBob's ridiculousness, Squidward thought that SpongeBob was just being a waste of time and not helping him at all, and he did not realize that the advice that SpongeBob gave was actually good. So I think that's why he ended up yelling at SpongeBob. And I got to admit, what Squidward said to SpongeBob was REALLY cruel. BUT... the ending of the episodes saves all of this! Everything works out for Squidward, as Squilvia ended up loving him even more after seeing him yell at SpongeBob. And the last thing that Squidward says to SpongeBob, "SpongeBob, I'm dreamy!" in the same friendly manner like he was in the beginning in the episode, just COMPLETELY REDEEMED the episode!!! :D Because of this quote, I can let Squidward's harsh words and SpongeBob's ridiculousness slide! This implies that Squidward did not mean those cruel things he said to SpongeBob, and he just said those things because he thought that SpongeBob's practice date was just a waste of time, when it is in fact not, as SpongeBob being "ridiculous" was actually helpful. I'm sure Squidward realizes that SpongeBob's practice date was in fact helpful, and that he will successfully use what SpongeBob taught him on the date! ^_^ Overall, the ending was fantastic; the episode was really funny; the character dynamic between SpongeBob and Squidward was flawless; Squidward and Squilvia's relationship was, like you said, cute and amusing; and this episode is a perfect example of a romantic comedy DONE RIGHT! :) So I will definitely change my rating to an AMAZING!!! Heck, this episode even might be one of my favorites of post-movie SpongeBob!

And, since you mentioned Gary in Love, I decided to rewatch that one too! And so once again, I was wrong about this episode too! Gary falling in love with Mary was actually pretty cute, and the episode was overall really funny. It was great to see Gary's devotion to love, that he even went out in the middle of the night in hopes of seeing her. Kinda weird... but hey, that was an act of true love and love sickness, so I can "sort of" see why he would do that. But he actually made SpongeBob a little worried, even though he was actually pretty optimistic in hoping to find Gary! Anyway, those three gangster snails were a really nice touch to the episode, and I liked them as characters! They were actually really funny! xD And it was great that they added some action, suspense, and humor into the episode, and they served as great antagonists to Runt... I mean, Gary, haha. So they were definitely one of the best aspects of the episode. Oh, and I loved the music that played whenever they appeared, which is actually the title card music for "Whatever Happen to SpongeBob." (I know you hate that episode and all, but I actually really think that its title card music is really good!) Anyway, like you said, SpongeBob was really likable in this episode, and he definitely was not an oblivious idiot. (Well, other than the fact that he thought Gary was kidnapped, but I actually think that it's believable that he would think that, and it was pretty funny too. :P) And when he found out that Gary was in love, he was such a good sport about it! He wasn't even mad that Gary wandered off without permission! Now that's the lovable Spongy that we all want to see, instead of that insanely oblivious and nasty "SpongeBob" that we saw in the godawful "A Pal for Gary." Anyway, the ending was fairly good, and SpongeBob did feel sorry for Gary's lost love. It is weird that Mary was pretty much cheating on that other "allegedly handsomer" snail... but whatever, I guess. And it was great that Gary became friends with the "not-so gangster anymore" snail, too. I will definitely change my rating of this episode to an AMAZING. :lol: I really enjoyed this one. Just like Love That Squid, this episode SUCCEEDED as a romantic comedy! The gang snails were awesome, the episode was really funny, SpongeBob was likable, and Gary experiencing love was cute (and quite action-packed) to watch!

Now here's one last thing I got to say: THANK YOU SO MUCH, Gordok!!! ^_^ I would've never realized how good these episodes really were, if it wasn't for you! I've seen these episodes at least once or twice, and the last time I've seen them were a few years ago, and for some reason, I remember not liking them. (This was back when I pretty much gave up on the show, so I think I was probably starting to become too cynical when I was watching these Season 7 episodes, due to the fact that a majority of this season's episodes are indeed bad. So I probably barely gave these episodes a chance and just hated them because of the fact that they came from Season 7.) And I always assumed that I'd still hate these episodes, so I never bothered to rewatch them. But thanks to you, I finally decided to, and WOW. These episodes are some of the best that I have ever seen in post-movie SpongeBob, and I love them so much! Therefore, thank you so much for helping me discover these hidden gems in the series. I really appreciate it. :)

And just wondering, are there any other Season 7 episodes that I listed as Bad or Meh that you like? I would love to give more Season 7 episodes a chance, so I need to know which ones that I should rewatch.

No, still think Greasy Buffoons is bad. I think gross-out should still be included but shouldn't be the top priority. It also kinda seems like a Krabs vs Plankton episode we didn't have enough of -_~

I was debating whether to give a few episodes (Love That Squid, The Wreck of the Mauna Loa, Enchanted Tiki Dreams, and The Masterpiece, for example) as amazing or good because they're some of the Season's best even though the only ones that truly can compete with any other Season are the two I left AMAZING.
