Trivia

General

• SpongeBob's face was redesigned for some of the re-release versions of the cover.
• The back cover of this DVD contains pictures from these episodes:
  • "Big Pink Loser"
  • "Squirrel Jokes"
  • "Bossy Boots"
  • "The Bully"
• This DVD contains previews for various shows. These include older SpongeBob DVDs and VHS tapes, The Wild Thornberrys Movie, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius DVDs and VHS tapes, Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, and Tak and the Power of Juju.
• The "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III" storyboards can also be found on The Complete 2nd/Second Season DVD.
• The majority of episodes on this DVD are season 2 episodes, perhaps compensating for the lack of season 2 episodes on the Tales from the Deep DVD.
• This is the first SpongeBob DVD release for three things:
  • The first DVD to be rated G in Canada.
  • The first DVD to have the Paramount DVD logo opening with a menu option.
  • The first DVD to feature Squidward on the front cover.
• This is also the last SpongeBob DVD release for three things:
  • The last DVD to have the orange wavy line and oval Nickelodeon logo on the cover.
  • The last DVD until Where's Gary? to use a font other than impact.
  • The last DVD to have episodes from two separate VHS releases. All future releases would be released both on VHS and DVD and starting with "Karate Island," there would be no more VHS counterparts since that format was discontinued in 2006.
• The picture of Squidward on the cover is also on the logo for the Persian SpongeBob dub.
• At some point in 2007, this DVD, Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies, and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie were released together in a bundle called Sponge Crazy.
• This DVD was released 3 days before the premiere of My Life as a Teenage Robot on Nickelodeon.
• The previews from this DVD are the same previews as those from the All Grown Up: Growing Up Changes Everything, NickToons Halloween, and The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Sea of Trouble 2003 DVD.

Cultural references

• The title of this DVD is a pun on the children's game hide-and-seek.

Errors

• Just like the 2004 DVD release of The Complete 2nd Season, on the back of the DVD, "Squidville" is misspelled as "Squidsville."
• On the DVD cover, Patrick is missing his left leg. This was fixed only on some of the international covers, and on the English VHS and VCD covers.
• The main menu shows clips from "Krab Borg," "Nature Pants," "Just One Bite," and "Something Smells," although these four episodes are not on this DVD.
  • However, the latter two episodes had already been released on DVD with Tales from the Deep and Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies respectively, while the former two would not be released on DVD until The Seascape Capers and SpongeBob Goes Prehistoric respectively.
