Looks like a nice little article. Review to follow soon. J Milburn (talk) 20:31, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

• "Gary quickly finds the snail that he saw before, which the old lady now mistakes for Miss Tuftsy, and takes home instead." You've not mentioned a snail he saw before.
  •  Fixed I've added some mentions about the snail.
• "offered a sneak peek and bonus coverage of the special" - A little informal, and in what way was it a special? This hasn't been mentioned yet.
  •  Fixed
• "Five days prior the episode's premiere, Nickelodeon launched the "Where's Gary" sweepstakes.[3][4] Patchy the Pirate searched in different locations for Gary. By visiting Nick.com, kids can get a "Trail of The Snail" tracking card and enter the Patchy's search locations in order to be eligible to win the sweepstakes. The grand prize was a trip to the Nickelodeon Animation Studios to meet the production team of the show and to sit in on a voice recording session with the cast.[3][4]" Informal ("kids", "grand prize"), tense switches and difficult to follow (who/what is Patchy the Pirate?). Try to write the article for someone (like me!) who knows nothing about SpongeBob.
  •  Done I'm really sorry for this. This seems to be the weakest part of the article. I've already fixed some and I hope it's now good enough.
• The references aren't perfectly formatted (Eric Olsen has an article, decide what you're linking and what you aren't, Blogcritics or Blog Critics?) but that's not absolutely necessary for GAC, and they seem appropriate- in fact, the sources you cite seem very good, in some cases.
  •  Fixed I've already fixed the "Blog Critics" in this ref.

Generally really strong- I was pleasantly surprised! I've made a few fixes- please double check them. I think the key issue is clarifying the fact that this is a "special"- I'm not clear what that means right now. J Milburn (talk) 21:11, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
