9/10
Another timeless duo

Warning: Spoilers
Bubblestand - This is one of my personal favorites. Spongebob decides to run - you guessed it - a bubblestand, where Spongebob gives bubble blowing lessons. Patrick and Squidward eventually get lessons to varying results. This episode takes a simple concept and turns it into laugh-per-minute gags, quotable lines a-plenty, and just some good, clean fun. The best part? Easy. "Now it's time to bring it around town!" (9/10)

Ripped Pants - This one's a timeless classic. Spongebob and Sandy are enjoying a day at the beach when Spongebob accidentally rips his pants while trying to show off to everyone. He takes this gag and runs it into the ground and he gets what's coming to him afterwards. This episode teaches a good lesson that I'm sure most modern shows can learn from: Just because a joke is funny once, doesn't mean it's ALWAYS funny. While it's not the most quotable episode, it's still a fun episode with a great message. Oh yeah, it's got a great song, too! (9/10)

Overall - Even after all these years, it's remarkable how well these two hold up - It's the second episode, too. This has definitely earned the title of "timeless". This episode's a win for me!

Score: 9 + 9 = 18/20 -> 9/10 Would highly recommend.
