Great to see you back.
10. I really liked Pineapple Invasion honestly, I don't know seeing Gary and Plankton interacting was pretty cool and I found it humorous.
9. Lame and Fortune is strictly okay for me, I can think of 10 season 9 episodes I find worse but I agree that it's unremarkable in most aspects.
10. The Fishbowl just didn't do it for me, Squidward was just strictly OOC, to me it felt like a betrayal (Hope that doesn't sound to dramatic) of his character rather than an extension of it and most of it was just kinda idiotic and loud without much humor that appealed to me.
9. Jailbreak! is a solid season 9a episode, at least in the top 5 of that half, I liked the character moments more than anything else.
8. Eek an Urchin is a greatly humorous episode and the criticisms I've seen are pretty pathetic.
