I can understand that, really. I just feels like I read too many complaints focused about it not being Spectacular.
That's not to say that I haven't seen issues related to the series proper and that the series doesn't have plenty of flaws, though.

I like ultimate...

I'm grateful that the existence of Ultimate allowed us to have Lego Spider-man toys, and gave us Lego fans our first Doctor Doom.

I can see why people would like Spectacular Spiderman: they did a good job of writing banter, and a fantastic job of making spidey look agile.

Having gone through this situation with the transition from Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes into Avengers: Assemble, I can understand how a lot of Spectacular Spiderman fans felt when that happened to them.

But honestly? I think Spectacular is an overhyped series. It's good, but it's not THAT good, and I'm starting to get a little bit sick of everyone talking about how it's not around any more.

My main complaint with the fact that The Spectacular Spider-Man no longer airing new episodes (a complaint shared by many) is the fact that it never got a proper ending. The series was intended to run for 65 episodes, but we only got 26. Because of this, we were left with a bunch of plot threads that were ultimately unresolved, chiefly Norman Osborn being alive after all; the Symbiote still crawling around New York; Gwen and Harry still being together despite the fact that Gwen loves Peter; and Miles Warren being in charge of Doctor Connors' lab. Also given the legalities surrounding the series, it seems like we will never get any resolution for this series.

If only this was a full length feature…

I think Spectacular deserves the hype, if you can get past the weird animation style. It's certainly a lot better than the 90s show, my how that has aged horribly.

The theme song still kicks ass, but yeah it's kinda hard to sit through even with nostalgia goggles on.

Yeah the theme is GREAT. But no punching, all lasers, "mercy bullets" and just the really low budget animation... it's not good.

I had completely forgotten about the all CG MTV Spider-Man but now you've reminded me of it, I remember actually liking that show.

You forgot we can't kill anyone so let's instead send them into another dimension.

And the fact that they changed blood for plasma...
