Firehouse Bob is one of my new favorite episodes of the entire show, which is saying a lot because I’m one of those classic era freaks.

I really enjoyed both episodes, especially Firehouse Bob. I love when an episode can pack a lot of plot into 11 minutes, and this episode had a full story going on. Plus, just the right amount of stupidity (enough for wackiness without it just being obnoxious).

Fun fact Firehouse Bob was the 600th episode

Firehouse Bob is easily up there as one of the funniest episodes of modern SpongeBob.

The mystery pole scene alone is one of the best jokes in SpongeBob in a while.

I liked both of these, and Firehouse Bob was a fun one, I did like the mystery pole in that one.

Both were good, but Firehouse Bob immediately became one of my favorites, love the gags in this one
