The Spectacular Spider-Man

Episode Guide

Theme Song

After two failed attempts to bring Spider-Man back into the television spotlight (Spider-Man: Unlimited, Spider-Man: the New Animated Series), Greg Weisman, known best for his cult hit Gargoyles, and Victor Cook took Peter Parker back to high school in a new animated series for Sony Pictures Television. The series was produced by Culver Entertainment and premiered on March 8, 2008 on Kids!WB on The CW. Season two first aired on Canada's Teletoon on January 11, 2009 and later in the US on Disney XD in March.

The series follows the first year of Peter Parker's life as Spider-Man as he learns to juggle his real life with his superhero life. Spidey's classic villains are all here, including Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus and Venom, to make Peter's life miserable.

Each season takes place during an actual season of Peter's sophomore year. Season one takes place from September to November and season two takes place during December to February. Weisman planned to complete the whole year in the next two seasons, but the show was not renewed for a third season. Sony relinquished the Spider-Man television rights back to Marvel shortly after Marvel was bought by Disney in 2009.
