Sleepy Time / Suds - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: When all of Spongebob's friends are formed around him, there's one scene where Pearl's hat disappears and then reappears, so for a few seconds she's completely bald. Her hair isn't even there.

Bubblestand / Ripped Pants - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In "Bubblestand" after Squidward blows the huge bubble, he tells Spongebob and Patrick that the ability to blow bubbles is in his genes. If you look at the position of the bubblestand sign, the sign is facing the direction Squidward is talking. The sign had always been facing the street, which means that Squidward was actually talking towards the street, when Spongebob and Patrick are actually to his right.

Suggested correction: When SpongeBob walks up to Plankton, he steps on him with his right foot, then pulls him off that same foot. No continuity error.

Suggested correction: When SpongeBob is showing Squidward the bubble-blowing technique (specifically after he does the pelvic thrust), he is in the same location he was in when he did the technique for Patrick, except a little more to the right. The red coral on the left was just off screen.

Valentine's Day / The Paper - S1-E16

Plot hole: When SpongeBob goes to Sandy's house, he blows a chocolate bubble with the shape of a heart. Sandy opens a little door and the heart comes in. But, if the heart enters, don't you think that water would have also entered?

Bubblestand / Ripped Pants - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Squidward complains to Spongebob about the construction noise from his stand, Squidward's porthole in the background is black, but from the interior there is a light on (Note: this also happens in every other shot of his house.

Continuity mistake: SpongeBob takes off his ripped pants, and throws them on the ground. His shirt sleeves are perfectly intact. Next, Sandy and Larry are shown playing volleyball. When SpongeBob is shown again, his pants are still gone, and so are his shirt sleeves.

Jellyfishing / Plankton! - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: In 'Plankton', when Spongebob is being controlled by Plankton and he bounces into the wall in the Chum Bucket, he is tumbling in a way so that when he is standing, he is facing away from the ingredient identifier. When the shot changes, Spongebob is now facing the identifier while standing.
