In this case XD is the Channel. Disney XD.

It's apperantly the replacement for Toon Disney. So yay me....One of my fave shows is on a channel I don't have...

Well there's always

The Internet...

Thought seriously it sucks that Spidey's on some obscure cable channel. It and Wolvie and the X-men are great,. and relegated to god knows where networks.

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.

Hey.... it was going to go to Nicktoons. Even less people have Nicktoons than Toon Disney. Too bad CN thinks that it's more important to run movies from 1998-2003 that everyone has seen in some way shape or form by now. It probably would have gone to a GOOD channel, but no one's interested in anything but infomercials now. No one watches them, no one likes them, but they're an easy way to get money they don't deserve.

Well for those who don't wanna wait till March it seems that season 2 will be premiering in Canada on teletoon on Sunday January 11th at 10:30am. Here's the plot descriptions for all 13 eps:

http://marvel.toonzone.net/news.php?...ullnews&id=155

Spoiler:
14 – Blueprints
It’s early December, and the first snow is falling. PETER PARKER has a long “To Do” list – leading off with talking to GWEN STACY about their surprise first kiss. But before he gets the chance, SPIDER-MAN has a run in with the sorcerer MYSTERIO.

15 - Destructive Testing
Both GWEN STACY and LIZ ALLAN like PETER PARKER. So whom should Pete pursue? Meanwhile, KRAVEN THE HUNTER has come to New York to make SPIDER-MAN his prey!

16 - Reinforcement
As Christmas approaches, the SINISTER SIX reconstitutes with SANDMAN, RHINO, VULTURE, ELECTRO and new members MYSTERIO and KRAVEN. All they want for Christmas is SPIDER-MAN – dead. Meanwhile, PETER PARKER finds his wandering eye prevents him from being with GWEN STACY. He’ll have to learn to focus if he wants to get the girl… and if he wants to stay alive.

17 - Shear Strength
It’s New Year’s Eve, and all is not right with world. The MASTER PLANNER and his henchmen are literally planning to take over the world! A highly motivated SPIDER-MAN takes the fight to the Planner’s secret lair. But once he gets there, can he survive?

18 - First Steps
School’s back in session, and things have changed. PETER PARKER’s actually invited to FLASH THOMPSON’s birthday bash. Meanwhile, SPIDER-MAN has to party with SANDMAN, who’s once again looking to make his Big Score. And is that VENOM disappearing into the night?

19 - Growing Pains
VENOM is back and framing SPIDER-MAN. Meanwhile, alien spores infect JOHN JAMESON, increasing his size, strength and mass. J. JONAH JAMESON convinces his son to become a super-hero to capture Spidey…

20 - Identity Crisis
PETER PARKER’s secret identity as SPIDER-MAN has been outted by VENOM, leaving Pete and his loved ones vulnerable to all of Spidey’s enemies.

21 - Accomplices
A gang war looms as SILVER SABLE, HAMMERHEAD and DOCTOR OCTOPUS vie for a prize that could change the balance of power in the New York Underworld…

22 - Probable Cause
Some days, PETER PARKER just can’t win… especially when he winds up on a MIDTOWN HIGH police car ride-along with SALLY AVRIL. As SPIDER-MAN, his luck isn’t any better, facing off against SHOCKER, RICOCHET and OX, i.e. the NEW ENFORCERS.

23 - Gangland
On Valentine’s Day, PETER PARKER jeopardizes his relationship with girlfriend LIZ ALLAN, when TOMBSTONE , DOCTOR OCTOPUS and SILVERMANE call a Valentine’s Day Summit . But when HAMMERHEAD betrays them all in an attempt to become the new Big Man, the summit erupts into a gang war – one only SPIDER-MAN can stop!

24 - Subtext
Determined to be a better boyfriend to LIZ ALLAN, PETER PARKER wishes he could help her brother MARK ALLAN. But when GREEN GOBLIN blackmails Mark into doing his bidding, neither Liz, MARY JANE WATSON nor SPIDER-MAN may be able to save him!

25 - Opening Night
To test security at the VAULT, SPIDER-MAN volunteers to try to escape. But the GREEN GOBLIN has other ideas, trapping Spidey inside RYKER’S amid a sea of felons he put away.

26 - Final Curtain
When PETER PARKER breaks up with LIZ ALLAN to finally be with GWEN STACY, nothing goes as planned. Likewise for SPIDER-MAN, who finally unmasks the GREEN GOBLIN, revealing him to be--No, wait! Stop! I promise I won’t tell a soul!


Edit: Dangit... sorry... hrm...

Dammit, that would have been great!

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.

God, I hope XD is a smash success only if Spidey gets another well deserved season.

That said:

Weren't these supposed to be "movies?" and not kiddy friendly volumes of 3 episodes for 14 bucks?

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.
