Who You Callin’ Pinhead?

Who You Callin’ Pinhead? is a famous line said by Patrick Star in the Spongebob Squarepants Episode “Survival of The Idiots”, which first aired in 2001. It is most notable for the sudden & hilarious face Patrick creates. It is also known by many for being “the most famous line in cartoon history.”

Background and Episode

The Episode is mainly about Spongebob and Patrick wanting to visit Sandy, but receive a video message from her via television in her front entrance, saying she was going into hibernation, and not wanting anybody to disturb. Spongebob and Patrick predictably enter the dome afterwards, to find the Tree Dome paradoxically snowing. Eventually, they discover that they don’t to wear the fish bowl to keep them from drying up since snow is made up of water. They then find Sandy in a grizzly bear form sleeping in her bed. She is dreaming about Texas’ criminals, Dirty Dan and Pinhead Larry [you can see where we’re going with this]. Afterwards, they start playing outside and acting as Dirty Dan and Pinhead Larry, and when Spongebob says, “Your time is up, Pinhead!” Patrick utters the famous line, “Who You Callin’ Pinhead?”
