Spider-Man: The Animated Series Pulled From Disney+

Quote:

We’ve heard reports today from Disney+ subscribers in the US, Canada and the UK that the 1994 Spider–Man: The Animated Series has been removed from Disney+.

It’s not entirely uncommon for titles to be removed from Disney+. Typically this happens at the beginning of the month and is usually just for one region (mostly the US) due to existing contracts in that location. This removal is definitely out of the ordinary as it’s been removed from so many different regions.

The removal came as a bit of a surprise since Disney+ does not announce which titles will be leaving every month as Netflix and Hulu does. It’s unknown if the series was pulled to due a contractual issue or even just a technical issue. If it does turn out to be a technical issue, the series could be back on Disney+ within the next few days.

No details on if and when the series might return to Disney+ have been announced at this time. Stay tuned!

Update: The series has also been removed in Latin America. We think this is likely a technical issue rather than contractual meaning the series should return shortly. No official word from Disney at this time.

I don't understand why they would do that, they own the series as of the FOX merger, they've owned the Spider-Man characters since the Marvel merger and they recently come to an agreement with Sony to have all the Spider-Man movies on there.

Sounds like just some kind of a mistake.

A representative from Disney+ has responded to the issue.

It makes me glad I got it on blu-ray earlier this month after it's mysterious lack of proper release.

The entire series was released internationally on DVD, though that too is a rare find these days.

The series is back up on Disney Plus

I started watching X-Men The Animated series again and I'm enjoying the hell out of it. I definitely adored it all the way up until high school, but then got the idea in my head that it wouldn't hold up anymore. Maybe I watched a couple stinker episodes or something and wrote it off.

But man, I'm really enjoying it now. I find there to be a very strange quality to the show. It has a strangeness to it - think MTV'S" Aeon Flux" animated series, but, admittedly, toned way down. Anyone else pick up on that? It's just sort of has a bizarre tone that I find very entertaining and easy to sink into.

The serialization is also pretty rewarding.

In comparison, I don't see myself re-watching Spider-Man The Animated series. I have love for it, but it definitely doesn't have that same quality that I find so entertaining with X-Men. It generally feels a bit blase' or cookie-cutter in tone. I don't feel like I'm mildy tripping when I watch it, as opposed to X-Men.
Yes, that's what it is.
