Pizza Delivery (SpongeBob SquarePants)
Nancy Basile from About.com said that it is "the perfect episode" to show SpongeBob's big interests in the Krusty Krab and Squidward being annoyed. She says the part of the episode she likes the most is Squidward throwing the pizza in the customer's face. Bill Treadway from DVD Verdict says that it is his "favorite out of all the episodes" because of the episode's comedy. Emily Estep of WeGotThisCovered.com said that the episode has the "nostalgia of being episode five" and liked the episode's look in the relationship of SpongeBob and Squidward. Estep thought that it "set the tone for just how strange the show could be." "Pizza Delivery" was named as the best episode of SpongeBob SquarePants by the people on Nick.com in 2009.
