Synopsis[]

When Granny Tentacles has her sleep interrupted by a late-night performance by Patrick, she goes onto the show and calls him out. The audience, however, finds it funny. As she insults them, they misinterpret her "you people are sick!" as a catchphrase and cheer. The next morning, Granny Tentacles sees the audience show up at her door and follow her into the house. She quickly becomes overwhelmed by her fanbase invading her privacy and starts driving away.

Granny Tentacles goes to the park to feed the clams, and finds her fans still following her. She escapes into a bus, but the bus driver is also a fan and asks for her signature. When the fans appear in the bus, Granny Tentacles saws it in half, but they continue chasing her with an ice cream truck. The half of the bus, with the fans pushing it, falls into a cavern. Granny Tentacles is saved by Squidina and Patrick with a rope ladder, and they want to give her a spin-off show. Granny Tentacles finally accepts her fame and puts on a spectacular performance, but by the end of it, the audience has already moved on. They get invested in a show about an old man painting a fence, which Granny Tentacles decides to start hate-watching.

Trivia[]

General[]

• This episode was originally going to be titled "Get Off My Lawnies," with the "s" being removed in the final title.
• Bikini Atoll appears when Granny Tentacles wakes up.

Episode references[]

• Squidward's teenage cousin from "Stanley S. SquarePants" is seen in the paintings in Granny Tentacles' house.
• One of Squidward's paintings depicts him with his blonde hair from "The Original Fry Cook."
• Granny Tentacles tells Patrick "You're a menace!" just like Santa did in "Goons on the Moon."

Cultural references[]

• The title of this episode is a pun on the phrase "Get off my lawn!"
  • The "lawnie" part of the title is what fans of The Patrick Show!, and later, The Granny Tentacles Show are labeled as. It's similar to how fans of other series often refer to the citizens of the town that the main characters live in (ex. "Bikini Bottomites" in SpongeBob, "Springfieldians" in The Simpsons.)
• Various jokes in this episode often reference television, as well as pop and internet culture.
  • Starting off with the main premise, Granny avoiding her wild fans satires extreme cases celebrity worship and idolization.
  • The lawnies' misinterpretation of Granny T.'s attitude is a parody on how fans may view certain details of a character or show and misinterpret it, often taking notice of minor or insignificant details and over-analyzing them. As an example, Granny Tentacles' fans debate on how washing her face is either a metaphor for starting over, or if it's just plain blunt and derivative. When Granny Tentacles is frustratedly confused by their talk, one fish misinterprets it as if "her character is so hard to read."
  • The bus driver calling the Granny Tentacles' fan club members "Fantacles" makes fun of how certain groups of fans are referred to under certain names. As an example, South Park fans are sometimes called "South Parkies."
  • Old Man Walker's "I have no life" shirt is a spoof on how certain groups of fans are often so obsessed with the material they enjoy, it substantially lowers their activity levels outside of it.
  • When Granny Tentacles switches the knob on the lawnies' driving paper TV, parodies of medical and action-dramas, Christmas specials, westerns, and infomercials are seen.
  • The quick rise and demise of Granny's show often references how things in recent years are often only popular for a fairly short time, due to the pure speed of the internet.

Errors[]

• During one of the shots of the audience reacting to Granny Tentacles on Patrick's show, Slappy's lips turn green for a few frames instead of orange.
