Aww damnit.

I wonder if it had anything to do with MTV playing the episodes completely out-of-order?

I remember seeing 1 episode when that guy became Electro & apparently died, then in the next weeks episode he was alive again, but it was a new episode (Example: Played episode B before episode A).

Hey, now that's not too shabby. How many episodes where there anyways? Did MTV even air all of the ones they made?

Thanks for the info Mikey!

That new Spider-Man show should have been on Cartoon Network and not the uber-lame MTV.

::nods:: Yeah, I agree, I have NO idea why they put it on MTV over Cartoon Network, I mean, they're both cable channels so it's not an issue of alienating some people.

I'm a long tme Spider-Man fan, I have been reading the comics for 10 years, but after 3 episodes of the MTV show I was too disgusted to watch anymore. Every character act WAY off character, the VA's were doing a pretty bad job [except Neil Patrick Harris] the Backround music was terible techno/whatever, and atleast for the first 3 episodes the writing, dialogue and story were really below PAR. It seems they targeted the teens that watch MTV everyday, unfortunately that is not the same audience who reads the comic book, and therefore it was impossible for them to catch the Spider-Man feel. But that's no excuse for bad writing or VA's.

There was something good though, I really liked the animation in it, and the fact that people could really die. To me the series is the Next Mutation of Spider-man so I couldn't watch it anymore. But from what I have heard, it did not get any better, so I have no regrets.
