Naughty Nautical Neighbors / Boating School - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Squidward starts making pink bubbles with messages, he goes to his backyard. Notice he never closed the back window of his house. When he starts laughing because of the messages, suddenly the window is closed. After Patrick saves Squidward, the window is still closed, but when they go to the front of his house, the window is open.

Pizza Delivery / Home Sweet Pineapple - S1-E5

Audio problem: In "Pizza Delivery," when you see them being sucked towards the whirlpool (wide shot of whirlpool). Squidward says, "Let go of the pizza." several times before they actually get caught up in the whirlpool. But the time where he says the line and it automatically cuts to his face, when you see his face, it is the end of him saying the line so you hear, ".izza." You hear that, but when you see a close up of his face, his mouth is completely shut.

Pizza Delivery / Home Sweet Pineapple - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: After Spongebob's house is gone, Squidward boo-hoos and goes into his house, then sounds happy. He starts throwing streamers and confetti out of his NOT-OPEN porthole. If the porthole was closed, they wouldn't fly out. Similar to some other ones in this show, and one in Fairly Odd Parents.

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy / Pickles - S1-E6

Hall Monitor / Jellyfish Jam - S1-E7

Hall Monitor / Jellyfish Jam - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: In "Hall Monitor" when SpongeBob is pretending to be the "open window bandit," you can see a red piece of coral outside of the house that he is about to break in to.
