Both of these episodes are proof that SpongeBob is back on the right track!

Spatula of the Heavens is "All That Glitters" done right. While SpongeBob does break his spatula again, he doesn't cry about it and opts to go get his spatula repaired. And it's understandable as SpongeBob finds his spatula one of a kind. And, when all seems like the trip was all for naught, SpongeBob opts to make his own spatula that fits him instead and even...using his hands as spatulas when he breaks the new one. Well, at least he didn't bawl his eyes out in this episode.

Spatula of the Heavens is probably the weaker of the two episodes, but it's definitely better than "All That Glitters"

Gary's Playhouse is an adorable, entertaining episode that not even Squidward can call terrible. In fact, he and Mr. Krabs are part of the reason for the episode's success!

Normally, one would predict Squidward to roll his eyes at the site of the role-playing pets or Mr. Krabs working on destroying the scene just to get SpongeBob back to work. Instead, they fawn over the cute scene and join Patrick and SpongeBob for the show.

And Gary's Playhouse as a whole was a great tribute to the very first episode. It was like watching a reenactment of "Help Wanted" with Gary and his animal friends.

I believe Gary's Playhouse to be one of the best Gary episodes of the series! Props to the writers for their creativity here.
