SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS THE COMPLETE 2ND SEASON is currently available on DVD (Paramount Home Ent., $49.99). Many find it superior to the first season in Bikini Bottom, and the three-disc set includes all 40 episodes. Slight on extras, no alternate ending for Shanghaied, but commentaries are with the animation crew rather than the cast this time around.
