Reception[]
R.L. Shaffer of IGN gave this collection an 8 out of 10, saying that "This DVD presentation is outstanding, packed with a decent assortment of extras, a snazzy case and a pretty solid A/V presentation. If you don't already own the first 100 episodes, I'd highly suggest picking this set up. The discounted price, if nothing else, should appeal to fans who've yet to purchase the first five seasons."[9]
Trivia[]

- "Christmas Who?," "Party Pooper Pants," "Ugh," "The Sponge Who Could Fly," "Have You Seen This Snail?," "Dunces and Dragons," "Friend or Foe," "Atlantis SquarePantis," "Pest of the West," and "What Ever Happened to SpongeBob?" are all counted as double-length episodes.

Errors[]
- The Walmart website once said that this DVD is rated R despite SpongeBob SquarePants DVDs not being rated in the United States and SpongeBob SquarePants being a children's series.
- This error has since been fixed.[10]
- In the closing credits for "Reef Blower" and "Tea at the Treedome," Bill Fagerbakke's name is misspelled as "Bill Faberbakke."
- This DVD (2009 release) has some of the airdate listings messed up (particularly with the seasons 1 and 2 episodes). Here's a complete rundown of the episodes that are listed with a false airdate:
- Episode 20: "Hooky"/"Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II"
- Episode 28: "Christmas Who?"
- Actual airdate: Wednesday, December 7, 2000[14][15][16]
- DVD airdate listing: Friday, December 7, 2001
- Episode 29: "Survival of the Idiots"/"Dumped"
- Episode 33: "Shanghaied"/"Gary Takes a Bath"
- In all Nickelodeon USA, Nicktoons USA, Nick@Nite, UK airings[22] of the episode "Something Smells" along with the iTunes, Amazon Prime Video, and Paramount+ digital versions, SpongeBob walks up to a building and says, "Hi, building!" which causes the building to flee from SpongeBob's breath. He goes up to Patrick and says, "I just don't get it!" and Patrick says, "I don't either."
- On this and all other DVD releases, the Nautical Nonsense and Undersea Antics Volume 1 VHS tapes, the Nick Scene It? DVD game, the VideoNow disc, the It's a SpongeBob Christmas! Blu-ray, Canadian airings on YTV and Nickelodeon Canada, Polish airings, French airings, Australian airings, and Arab airings, the scene instead goes like this:
- SpongeBob: [walks up to a building and waves] I just don't get it! [The building flees]
- Patrick: [off-screen] I don't, either. [SpongeBob walks up to Patrick; the rest of the scene goes as normal, resulting in the same lines being repeated]. According to the audio commentary on The Complete 2nd Season DVD, this was a sound mixing error. The music also repeats itself incorrectly at that point. It is made obvious since SpongeBob's mouth still clearly says the intended line. The closed-captioning on this DVD matches the incorrect audio.
- The disc 3 episode description of "Bubble Buddy" states, "With Patrick out of town..." However, in the episode, Patrick's note just says that he has gone to get more giant paper. It also does not mention that SpongeBob went to check on Squidward and Sandy too.
- "Graveyard Shift" is listed as "The Graveyard Shift" on the episode selection screen and episode listing for disc 5.
- This also happens on the Nautical Nonsense and Undersea Antics Volume 1 VHS tapes, the Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies, Complete 2nd Season, Sponge Crazy, Really Big Box Set, Complete Second Season, From the Beginning, Part 1, Nautical Nonsense digital release, The First & Second Seasons, The Best 200 Episodes Ever, and The Best 300 Episodes Ever DVDs, and It's a SpongeBob Christmas! Blu-ray.
- In "I'm with Stupid," when Patrick says, "You should see him in the morning prancing around yelling 'I'm ready! I'm ready! I'm ready!'," the closed-captions read, "You should see him in the morning prancing around yelling Harmony! Harmony! Harmony!"
- "Nasty Patty" is listed as "The Nasty Patty" on the episode selection screen and episode listing for disc 6.
- This also happens on The Best 200 Episodes Ever and The Best 300 Episodes Ever DVDs.
- "Party Pooper Pants" is listed as "SpongeBob's House Party" on the episode selection screen and episode listing for disc 7.
- This also happens on The Best 200 Episodes Ever and The Best 300 Episodes Ever DVDs.
- In the 2017 re-release of the DVD set, "Funny Pants" is misspelled as "Funny Pantss."
- "New Leaf" is listed as "The New Leaf" on the episode selection screen and episode listing for disc 10. It was called "The New Leaf" during the Best Day Ever marathon, as well as on the closing credits and the Nickelodeon schedule.
- Comcast, Amazon Prime Video, AT&T U-Verse, and DirecTV also use this title.
- The disc 10 episode description of "Best Frenemies" reads, "Mr. Krabs reveals that he and Plankton were once the best of friends." However, this description actually refers to "Friend or Foe." Interestingly, the description for "Friend or Foe" is different from that of "Best Frenemies," which reads, "It's the history of the Krabs/Plankton rivalry! With a special appearance by Patchy!"
- This description error also happens on disc 4 of The Complete Fourth Season, 2-Season TV Pack, and The Third & Fourth Seasons DVDs.
- In "Fungus Among Us," when SpongeBob says, "Gary the Snail," the closed-captioning incorrectly refer to his name as "Gary D. Snail."
- There are three errors made with episode production numbers on this DVD. "Squid on Strike" is labeled episode 40b instead of 40a, "Just One Bite" is labeled 43b instead of 43a, and "Ghost Host" is labeled 70a instead of 70b.
