Trivia[]

General[]

"Frozen Face-Off," "A SquarePants Family Vacation," "Ghoul Fools," "It's a SpongeBob Christmas!," and "Hello Bikini Bottom!" are all counted as double-length episodes.
"It's a SpongeBob Christmas!" is the only episode from season 8 to be presented in a widescreen format. On this DVD, the episode "It's a SpongeBob Christmas!" is actually in full screen 4:3 letterbox with black bars on the top and bottom rather than true widescreen.
In the French release, the box set's name is "Saison 8 - Non censurée," which translates to "Season 8 - Uncensored."
- That version of the cover is also very different.
On the DVD description on the backside, the following episodes are referenced:
- "The Other Patty" - "Check out Bikini Bottom's new Flabby Patty restaurant"
- "The Googly Artiste" - "Patrick's art sensations"
- "Plankton's Good Eye" - "Plankton's turn to the nice side"
- "Glove World R.I.P." - "and the last hurrah for Glove World."
The first disc includes previews for other Nickelodeon DVDs and a DreamWorks Animation 2012 film. These include Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Legend of Korra, and Rise of the Guardians.
"Sandy's Vacation in Ruins" is paired up with the episode "A SquarePants Family Vacation" on iTunes.
This is the first SpongeBob SquarePants season DVD to not have music on any of the menus.
This is the last SpongeBob SquarePants season DVD release for a few things:
- The last SpongeBob season DVD to show the Paramount DVD logo on the spine of the DVD.
- The last SpongeBob season DVD where each episode segment is a separate chapter. Starting with The Complete Ninth Season, the episode segments are now paired up instead of being separate chapters (with the exception of double-length episodes).
- The last SpongeBob season DVD to have the episode list and descriptions inside of the case until The Complete Eleventh Season released 7 years later on March 31, 2020.
- The last SpongeBob season DVD to have the episodes listed by disc on the back.
On June 7, 2022, this DVD set and the Complete Seventh Season were released together in a bundle called The Seventh & Eighth Seasons.
The UK and Australian versions have no bonus features.

Errors[]

On the back, "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom" is misspelled as "Smooth Jazz at Bikini Bottom."
On the back, "InSPONGEiac" is misspelled as "InSpongeiac," not capitalizing some of the letters.
- This also happens on The Next 100 Episodes, The Best 200 Episodes Ever, and The Seventh & Eighth Seasons DVDs.
On the disc 3 episode selection screen and on the back of the DVD, "Face Freeze!" is listed as "Face Freeze," missing the exclamation point at the end of the title.
- This also happens on the Extreme Kah-Rah-Tay, Next 100 Episodes, The Best 200 Episodes Ever, SpongeBob SquarePants Triple Pack, and The Seventh & Eighth Seasons DVDs.
On the back, "For Here or to Go" is listed as "For Here or To Go," capitalizing the "t" in "to."
- This also happens on The Next 100 Episodes, The Best 200 Episodes Ever, and The Seventh & Eighth Seasons DVDs.
