SpongeBob SquarePants Episodes: 1999-2005

Below is a list of all the SpongeBob SquarePants episodes that aired during what I consider to be the series' prime. The list includes all the episodes from Season 1, Season 2, and Season 3, along with the episodes from Season 4 that aired in 2005.

Although "Dunces and Dragons" didn't air until 2006, it is still included on this list because it was made in 2005 and produced between 2 episodes that were made and aired in 2005. An interesting fact is that most people consider the series' prime to cut off at the end of Season 3, though I personally disagree.

I feel that all the episodes of Season 4 that were made and aired in 2005 including "Dunces and Dragons" are also part of the series' prime. Though that's probably because they aired during the same year that I began to really get into SpongeBob SquarePants, though I was first introduced to SpongeBob SquarePants in 2003.

It wasn't until 2009 that I found out that the episodes from Season 4 that were made and aired in 2005 including "Dunces and Dragons" were actually post-movie episodes. And by the time I found that out, I felt that it was too late for me to imagine them as not being part of the series' prime.

Notes:

 * From 2006 until early 2009, I erroneously listed the episode "Pranks a Lot" under the title "Invisible Spray".
 * At one point in 2012, I erroneously credited the episode "Scaredy Pants" to be written by "Peter Burns, Paul Tibbitt, and Merriwether Williams".
 * Because of the lettering of the "Arrgh!" title card, from 2006 until early in 2007, I mistakenly thought the title of the episode was "Arrsh".
 * The first time I saw the episode "Ripped Pants", I erroneously memorised it as "Ripper Pants".
 * Because the SpongeGuard on Duty DVD incorrectly lists the episode "Nasty Patty" under the title "The Nasty Patty", I often referred to that as the actual name of the episode.
 * The first time I saw the episode "Frankendoodle", I erroneously memorised it as "Frankodoodle".
 * The first time I saw the episode "Walking Small", I erroneously memorised it as "The Walking Snail".
 * At one point in 2009, I erroneously copied "Party Pooper Pants" down onto paper as "Party Prooper Peanuts".
 * At one point in 2007, I erroneously listed the episode "SquidBob TentaclePants" under the title "Squidward TentaclePants".
 * At one point before 2008, I erroneously remembered the episode "Skill Crane" as having "The" in its title, making it "The Skill Crane".
