Correction: Gary is no simple snail though. He can sing (I was a teenage Gary), he can recite poetry (at that talent show in the Krusty Krab), so if Gary is so simple then he wouldn't be able to turn on the TV in the first place.

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy / Pickles - S1-E6

Corrected entry: In "Pickles," Spongebob is confused about everything and when he has to sleep, he says, "So is it mattress, mattress, blanket, pillow, Spongebob? No, that's not it..." and every time he tries to figure out the order he names two mattresses. But Spongebob's bed has three mattresses.

Correction: Remember, Spongebob is very confused on everything so surely he could forget even the most simplest tasks or things, even how many mattresses he has while looking at them.

Correction: That may have been the first episode aired, but "Tee at the Treedome" was part of the pilot.

Correction: I cannot figure out why so many people keep submitting mistakes like this, especially since the corrections are all the same. It's a joke.

Correction: There is no episode showing that Squidwards bedroom is on the top floor, but, judging by how far his house goes back, we assume that his bedroom is on the top floor because, as we see in a few episodes, there is a living room on Squidward's bottom floor.

Correction: There is a shot before Patrick flings the soup at Squidward showing that it is alphabet soup. Spelled out in the soup is something like "Happy Best Day Ever, Squidward."

Correction: This was probably either meant to be funny, or Patrick did it when Spongebob had his back turned when wondering what to do with the dollar before Mr. Krabs saw it.

Correction: We saw in "Survival of the Idiots" that Sandy stuffed herself before hibernation. She didn't get to overeat this time, so she wasn't fat.

Correction: Squidward only says this just before Spongebob wishes. Squidward is thinking Spongebob will say something stupid and get them all eaten in the process.

Correction: This isn't really a mistake in the episode, since it doesn't really affect the storyline of the episode. But, if you want to get picky, then the reason he painted a fence was probably because he wanted his house to look more decorative, so he decided to put a painted fence there.

Show generally

Corrected entry: In the episode where Spongebob loses his identity, he constantly has his back to people. His name tag was on his back, so wouldn't someone have noticed it?

Correction: At the beginning when Spongebob first realizes he lost it, Squidward points to Spongebob's back saying something like "Uh...Spongebob..." but gets cut off, so it's fair to assume he saw the nametag and was trying to tell Spongebob. Besides, Spongebob only found out about the inspection at work, so he didn't ask anyone else if they had seen his nametag.

Correction: That's the joke.

Correction: As a kid's show, it's just something to bring laughs to kids.

Correction: It's just to be a joke. It is a kids show.

Correction: It's just a change of words. It's supposed to mean Spongebob had fun.

Correction: On the DVD 'Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies', the creators said that they'd 'bend reality' for the cartoon- such as you can't have fire under water.

Correction: As we've seen in previous episodes, none of the fish swim around, so it's reasonable to assume that they can't (and that they can only walk around).

Correction: While Hillenburg did draw a similar character he gave the name Spongeboy to, it was never considered for use in the show and not relevant trivia. There already existed a product using the name Spongeboy.

But it was still the original idea for the show.

No, it was two separate ideas.

Show generally

Corrected entry: In the episode when Spongebob and Patrick decide to make a Mermaidman and Barnacle Boy movie, Patrick states at one point that he had the cap on the lens of the camera the whole time. However, during the entire scene before he says this, you can easily see Patrick's camera, and the cap isn't on the camera.

Correction: Patrick mentions putting the cap on right before they start filming.

Flashback

Correction: IT'S A CARTOON! Some suspension of disbelief is expected. It's common in cartoon for characters to pull a ridiculous number of items out of a small bag, or even a pocket.

Suggested correction: The pencil is sitting to the right of the paper the entire time. It's hard to notice at first, but it's there.

Chosen answer: You need to provide a little bit more information to be able to answer a question like this. In what region is it not being shown? I see it being replayed here in Australia fairly frequently. As for a general reason, there does not appear to be any for why it specifically might have been taken off the air in any country or region. Like any show certain episodes can sometimes not be replayed for long periods for unknown reasons.
