Reception
Currently retired critic Roy Hrab of the DVD Verdict said in a review of it, that "there's nothing new here and adults will be disappointed, but the latest installment of SpongeBob SquarePants delivers a lot of silly and good-natured fun for the kids." He also criticized the extras for being "forgettable" and "almost non-existant."[1]
Trivia
General
- Just like the Sea Stories DVD and VHS cover, the DVD artwork is SpongeBob's face.
- The DVD also contains short trailers for various Nickelodeon shows.
- "Friend or Foe" is counted as a double-length episode.
- The episode "Fungus Among Us" was released on this DVD 25 days before it aired on American television.
- This is the first season DVD to play the credits for each individual episode segment instead of the credits for the episode and their sister episode.
- It is also the first season DVD to have the end credits on a loop.
- This is the first SpongeBob DVD to have pop-up trivia facts since The Complete 3rd Season.

Nick DVD Logo.
- This is the last SpongeBob season DVD to use the "Nick DVD" logo.
Errors
- Even though "To Love a Patty" is episode 87a and "Breath of Fresh Squidward" is episode 87b, disc 2 has the opposite (87b, then 87a.)
- On the main menu for the second disc, there are a couple of clips from "A Flea in Her Dome" and "The Donut of Shame" even though those episodes are on the Season 5 Volume 2 box set.
