Video: Spongebob Patron Review: Your Shoe's Untied

when i was a little kid i had a best-of dvd of the best episodes from the early seasons, which was what initially got me into SpongeBob, and this episode always stuck out to me as one of my favorites. i have dyspraxia which makes it difficult for me to do fine-motor tasks like tying laces, and i was stubbornly wearing velcro shoes until i couldn't find a large enough size for me anymore. weirdly enough, this episode made me feel seen in a way, and it helped teach kid me not to overreact to little things like struggling to tie shoelaces. i adore this episode both due to nostalgia and because of how well it's held up comedically. one of my favorites overall :)

I never figured out the one bunny thing but now my shoes are slip on and I don't care who knows!

Loopty loop and pull~ Now your shoes are lookin’ cool~

Being someone who doesn’t know how to tie a shoe, I can relate to SpongeBob here. I know, grown man that doesn’t tie shoes. I usually wear slip ons because of that. Also this is Painty’s first appearance outside of the intro.

Brilliant episode this was!
