SpongeBob SquarePants - The Complete 3rd Season

I'm ready! 🫡

As I wrote in a previous review, I was turned onto SpongeBob by my girlfriend's 7 year-old daughter! Like I wrote in my previous review (for SpongeBob's Season 7 DVD Set) it was about 2.5 years ago. I bought the film, then a few of the 'grab-bag' DVDs w/ random episodes. Now, I'm getting the Complete Seasons-only through Amazon, by the way! The prices cannot be beat, @ least as compared to stores & REPUTABLE sites! Season 3 was delivered yesterday (I ordered it on Sunday, 8/4/13). Whenever I order, I like to get the One Day Shipping-it's worth it & not expensive! Season 3 has some of my most beloved episodes-i.e., "SpongeBob Meets The Strangler", "Krab-Borg"(the 1st that I popped in), "Krusty Krab Training Video"(which is 1 of THE most popular eps. ever, via the 'Pop-Ups'-I'll get to that later), "The Camping Episode", "Club SpongeBob", "Krabby Land", & I could go on & on. I bought Seasons 7,8,& now 3! I pick them by which 1's have the episodes that I love the most. Season 3 has some awesome Bonus Features! 1st, there's 'Pop-Ups' on select episodes. As the ep. progresses, Trivia Facts will pop-up (hence the name) on your screen, facts about that episode in particular, or just rare facts about the show & the making of. There's also a "How To Draw SpongeBob & The Main Characters". It's a .5 hour long demo for kids to teach them to draw the characters, which I think is GREAT & unique! Also, the Pilot Episode "Help Wanted", which is NOT on the Season 1 DVD BoxSet (for whatever reason), is included. I've seen it on Nick, but it's cool to have here as a Bonus. As always the picture is great, & as I mentioned in my other SB Season 7 review, the Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo Surround is much better than 2.0 on DVDs of films & other TV shows. Why? No idea, but there IS a HUGE difference. The 3-DVD Set is packaged in the 'Tray-Stack' style, all in a 'Keep Case'. 1 note: MY Season 3 DVD Cover-Art is different from what is pictured on amazon.com. I noticed that the copyright date on MY copy is 2012, but the 3rd Season was released on DVD in 2005. I guess I have a 2nd Edition, as opposed to a 1st. That bums me out a bit, as a collector of film/TV DVDs, I ALWAYS try to get the 1st Editions (hence why, when a movie or TV Season is released that I want, I get it on it's release day!)!Other than that, a stellar product. Amazon is the best!

If SpongeBob was ended after 3 seasons, I would give this season a 4, but this is because many of the episodes were losing steam with specials and other dark-themed episodes that are not in good taste; however, many of the Best episodes of the entire show are in Season 3. Seasons 1-3, being the objectively-best seasons, are endlessly meme-able because they are just Too funny. Season 3 is no exception to the endless laughs the best episodes provide. Club SpongeBob, Krab Borg!, Wet Painters and Krusty Krab Training Video (why are these training videos always so hilarious?), and Chocolate with Nuts are among some of the most funny episodes in the whole show. This is a Must-Watch show, and is the Best child comedy, while also being some of the most memorable comedy I've ever seen.

This DVD works smoothly on my DVD player,the box and disc are clean and neat and best ways to watch spongebob

Oh..... SpongeBob. Your cheerful optimism and indomitable spirit makes me so happy. I know you're supposed to be corny and nerdy, aloof and annoyingly sun-shiny. But I can't help how you see the positive in everything! Seasons 1,2, and 3 are definitely my favorite episodes. I feel that after season 3, the writing became much less true to the characters. A similar thing happened to The Simpsons, when after years of success writing stories that were zaney but also heartwarming and true to real-life experiences for most somewhat dysfunctional families.... the show enjoyed so much success that quality writing didn't matter so much anymore and they could have the characters do whatever they wanted regardless of whether it was true to their nature. So long as it got a laugh. This, I think is what happened to SpongeBob. The later seasons have a few gems, but I like the first three seasons because the show wasn't such a runaway success yet, and the stories were much more carefully and cleverly written. Really witty at some times, actually! I love how Patrick is really just a kid character.... who gets excited and who has hissy fits. He's really not dumb, he's just a kid and he occasionally says really bright and insightful things too the way a child does. In later seasons..... they just write him as really dumb or really violent. And that's not as sophisticated or insightful. Yep, I'll stick with the early seasons. Five Stars.

...then this is the set to get. Season three contains more laughs than any other complete season. Seasons one and two were undeniably great, but the quality of the storylines and animation in three were at their peak. (Season four, unfortunately, marked the beginning of the end.) Most notable episodes: "Just One Bite" - Spongebob coaxes Squidward to try a Krabby patty. "The Bully" - Flats, a new student at the boating school, threatens to kick Spongebob's butt. "As Seen on TV" - Spongebob gets a big head after appearing in a Krusty Krab commercial; features the song "Striped Sweater." "No Weenies Allowed" - Quite possibly the best written episode of the whole series. "Krusty Krab Training Video" - Self-explanatory; gotta love that soundtrack. "The Great Snail Race" - Spongebob as a harsh coach. "Mid-Life Crustacean" - The fact that the words "debauchery" and "panty raid" were used at all, let alone in the same episode, was a real hoot. "The Camping Episode" - Features "The Campfire Song Song" As an added bonus, this set also features the pilot episode where Spongebob first gets hired at the Krusty Krab, featuring Tiny Tim's "Livin' in the Sunlight."

Die dritte Staffel von Spongebob ist eine der besten Staffeln ueberhaupt. Ganz besonders weil Kult Episoden wie: "nur einen Bissen", "Der Seepferdchenfluesterer", "verkaufsgenies" USW. darauf vertreten sind Die Folgen haben Witz und Charme und werden bestimmt nicht langweilig hinzu kommt, dass die Box, die DVDs sowie das digitale Menue sehr Kreativ und einfallsreich gestaltet wurden, frei nach dem Motto "Krosse Krabbe" Ein echter Hingucker. Einziger Kritikpunkt sind die fehlenden Extras. Klar, es ist eine Kindersendung, dennoch haette ich mir so was wie eine Bildergalerie oder "einen Blick hinter die Kulissen" gewuenscht. ;( wie auch immer, alles in allen ist diese DVD-Box wirklich gelungen und eine gute Investition. Ein Absolutes MUSS fuer jeden Spongebob Fan und all jene die es noch werden moechten ^^.

I am heading off to college soon with this season and am not ashamed of it! The first 3 seasons of Spongebob are the best ones, and the episodes make me so happy. My personal favourites on this season include "Club Spongebob," "Idiot Box," and "Chocolate with Nuts." This is definitely worth the purchase if you or your kids enjoy the show!

spongebob and crew are genius, equal to the funniest bits of the marx brothers speeded up four times, there are many great titles hear but the greatest might be spongebob meets the strangler, part of the genius is that kids love it but theres a whole different level for adults with a brain. comparisons, bugs bunny and yosemite sam, daffy duck and elmur fudd, great cartoons of the thirties and forties

Llegó fuera de su lugar la pestaña que sostiene dos de los discos, pero por suerte ninguno rayado. Se ve y escucha bien. Ojalá tuvieran la primer temporada con el doblaje en español.

ce coffret en import contient l'intégral de la saison 3 avec le choix de la langue française et un petit prix, parfait.
