I thought the reason they made episodes like dream hoppers and reef blower was because tom kenny might struggle with doing the spongebob laugh sometimes, so they sometimes make episodes like that so the actors can take a break from doing the voices. But the fact that people thought they had problems with the audio is pretty funny.

Interesting fact about Reef Blower. Even though it was the second episode to air. It was the twenty eighth episode produced. So technically it’s one of the last episodes from the first season made.

My god. It’s like _everyone_ wants to go back to those old silent films these days. Voice actors have to make a living too, you know.

The 2nd spongebob episode of existence. Reef Blower. (YOU!)

I want the last episode (or episodes) to be based around SpongeBob getting his license, some sort of silent episode, and him being the manager at the Krusty krab 2 Since there's a SpongeBob multiverse now This is now possible

If you think about it Reef Blower was like a little spongebob short film alongside the show, the silence and goofy way the music syncs with the motion reminds me of many short films made today based on other big movies and stuff! the episode is phenomenal

You should talk about the confirmed SpongeBob season 14 episodes that are sequels to older episodes.

This episode is pretty interesting and is something SpongeBob doesn’t do anymore! Actually… scratch that! Dream Hoppers also did that too!

Reef Blower is one of my favorite episodes

I clearly remember back when this aired. I wanted to watch this new Show called Spongebob and the first Episode/Part was an amazing unforgettable experience. And then right after Help Wanted they showed this. Sure today i think different about this. But having a silent Part was strange to see from this new Show. Made me question the whole show a bit.

I would love to see more episodes like this.

Well with the Actors Strike happening, im guessing that the only way to keep Spongebob alive is by doing more of these. Well its a good thing since we can finally have more of these. And it can change animation as we know it. We may not need actors anymore, even though they're memorable. But, with animation, we could have a major change in animation.

Reef Blower

Genndy tartakovskys works are examples of animation without the use of much dialogue

Thought the episode was gonna be that one where SpongeBob just pulls a string on squidwards shirt the whole time

I saw this episode repeat and enjoyed it.

I always thought of Reef Blower as mere filler but the fact that it can be entertaining without any dialogue proves SpongeBob is just as good at visual gags as it is at spoken jokes.

We need MO)RE of this GOODNESS, please! Reef Blower was a legendary episode and I wish that Nick would let the crew do more of these kinds of episode like this stuff that they did back in Season 1 of the show! I would love to see that happen again in the future!

Jay lender once made a tweet about how spongebob's expressions should work, it's a really cool look and I recommend it to fans of the older episodes of the show.

I loved this episode

I watched Spongebob all the time growing up and now at 30 just so happened to notice that the people of bikini bottom are living in mufflers....

The all star himself is dead. I suggest you to make a tribute, or something. R.I.P. 1957-2023

Maybe that should be the direction they should go with Spongebob, just like Mickey Mouse shorts! but with no dialogue... the short time stamp will make the modern show tolerable enough to actually enjoy 😁

this makes Squidward's enjoyment of the reef blower even more satisfying in Squidsville

The fact that the shortest episode is the second episode in the very first season is amazing

I like that episode.

Sometimes, you don't need to say anything to say everything.
