Spectacular Spider-Man?
Does anyone know if there will be anymore episodes of Spectacular Spiderman? All I ever see them show is Season 1 stuff? Also has there been a Season 1 DVD announced?
Thanks for any help. |
There will be a season 2 in 09 but it wont be on the CW 4kids. It will probably air around March on a new network most likely NickToons since they have Ironman and Wolverine and the X-Men.
|
I think they're only releasing those lame ass volumes for the show, thus far. Hopefully a season set isn't far off.
|
...How hard is it to remember the - In Spider-Man? I mean really. :(

I really love this show infact it's made me more of a Spider-Man fan.
I hope they bring out a season box set and more episodes, I just hope it's not on some odd chanel or time so I can watch it. |
The NickToons thing is just a rumor, so far as I've heard.
The fact that the series has been canned after season 2, though, is not. :( Weisman has stated that over half the staff for the series have been laid off and renewal past season 2 is highly unlikely, and even if the show DOES get picked up for a 3rd season, they'd have to hire a completely new staff since all the folks they fired have moved on to new projects. A shame when such a good show is canned as soon as it gets off the ground. |

I still don't know how the f*ck can something that's so quality gets canned that quickly. When I look at the sh*t out there going on for season after season, it just baffles me.

Yup... the American Children's TV industry at its finest. As long as one kid doesn't hurt himself doing something stupid, then the parents can turn a nice blind eye. "Oh, there is no children's TV anymore... I guess that's good. Now I'm going to have to blame the kids my kid hangs out with while I have another appletini with the other privileged soccer moms." Season 2 didn't even START and they've canceled it. Even if the ratings are spectacular there's no hope. You know, if I were Marvel, I'd sue Sony for this. This has to be a breach of contract. And yes, the DVD set will come out either by the time Season 2 airs or as soon as it does. That's usually how it works. |
Wiesman had the whole 65 episode structure set up. It's a real shame. We were going to have one full year told over five "seasons" (legit seasons, as in winter/spring/summer/autum) over five years, then the movies were going to dip into the more mature layers of the series.

Mostly because there's no place to put it. Let's run them down:
Fox is dead.... I don't think 4Kids has the money to negotiate with Sony for the second season. CBS, ABC, NBC- FCC obligatory TV EI- not to mention ABC and NBC just use reruns from other networks they own anyway Cartoon Network is basically turning into the Crappy family films from 5-10 years ago network Nickelodeon, outside of Spongebob, only cares about Teennick and Nick Jr. (apparently there is no Nick 5-10 year olds anymore, go figure) Disney still has bad blood with Marvel over that whole fiasco about who owns the 1990's Marvel cartoons So, basically Nicktoons is all that's left. And if they don't get it, where's it gonna end up? I have to admit, it's pretty naive to think that a cartoon series will even last one full season, let alone 5. Too bad they're too blind to realize that even the reruns are doing great in the ratings... and they've just started airing the Lizard episode for the 10th time. |
On the bright side, we get 26 great episodes on disc when it's all said and done. Maybe Weisman will still be able to do some of the direct to dvd's he was talking about.

Well, ****... Is XD the thing they're replacing ToonDisney with? If so, at least I have that.
|
No, XD is a smiley face. It took me about ten years to realize that. I didn't even know this show was cancelled...what a shame, I enjoyed the episodes I've seen.

A channel hardly anyone has?! Sorry, but no. Toon Disney has a good amount of broadcasting range. On the other hand, Boomerang would be one that doesn't (at the least, not the kind of amount TD does anyway). |

Well, what I meant by that is (far as I've read) XD is just going to be the new name for what currently is Toon Disney. |

Seriously, I find this to be one of the most consistently well written animated shows since TMNT 2k3 and Batman: TAS. It has so much potential--I would have loved to se it last at least as long as the 1990s Christopher Daniel Barnes/John Semper version. And I would have loved a DTV or straight to DVD Batman: Mask of the Phantasm or ROTJ equivalent in this Spidey universe... |
Season two of the series has begun airing in Canada, and the official premiere in the States isnt until March on Disney XD.
Sony and Marvel will only commision a third season if the second is a success. Greg and his crew have all been officially laid off, but Sony are keeping them on standby. |
Toon Disney reran the other Spidey cartoons into the ground so I will be surprised if season 2 doesn't do well.

If there are any Bulgarians around here Season 2 of Spectacular Spider-man is currently airing twice a week on Nova TV. 2 eps every weekend. Check your local listings for the times.
http://www.ntv.bg/program/ So now Bulgaria is ahead of everyone in Spider-Man eps. |
I think I'll check the TV listings here in Blighty.

That said: Weren't these supposed to be "movies?" and not kiddy friendly volumes of 3 episodes for 14 bucks? |
They didnt work out as well as they hoped
|
Could'nt find Spiderman listed on TV here.
I managed to acquire the first three episodes of Season 2 though. I like the amount that has been crammed into just those 3 so far. ===HERO |
Aaand just to piss everyone off Spectactular Spider-man Season 2 won't even be airing till the Summer now.... gee thanks Disney. :roll:
When the series premiers on Disney XD on March 23rd it'll be the first season only. Aint that fun? :P Thank the gods for Canada.... http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stori...2/28/index.htm |
