Reception

Atlantis SquarePantis was generally given mixed reviews by critics and fans alike.[3] Tom Shales, a television critic for The Washington Post, lambasted the movie in a November 12, 2007 review. In the review, titled Squeezing The Life Out of SpongeBob, Shales wrote that "the funniest thing about the film is its title" and "a typical episode has about as many laughs as this inflated version does". Shales criticized the amount of musical numbers in Atlantis SquarePantis, calling them "numbing". He concluded the review with the statement that the show was "flat" and "unimpressive".[1] However, Atlantis SquarePantis recorded nine million viewers, beating every 8pm show on broadcast television that night except Dancing With the Stars.[2]

Z to A Countdown

In the weeks prior to the priemere of the epsiode, fans voted online for their favorite episodes. They world premiere in a marathon, starting on November 12, 2007 at 9:00 a.m. Each episode corresponding to a letter of the Alphabet. Starting with Z, for Plan Z, the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. It will end with A, for Atlantis SquarePantis. Additionally, a countdown clock would appear on the bottom right corner of the screen, displaying the amount of time left until the premiere of Atlantis SquarePantis.

At 5:00 pm, Patchy the Pirate started to host the remainder of the marathon from the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas. At 6:00 pm, Patchy went underwater for his underwater talk show. After the H episode aired, Patchy went through the top 3 reasons to go to Atlantis:
