hahahahahahahahaha Joking.

As a Spider-Man fan I was really disappointed that no villians (of the comic books) showed up but then I realize that it was the seventies. They did a pretty good job given their budget (which was a lack of). I think this show was pretty okay. Not fantastic but just okay. I would have liked to see more of the comic arcs in the series but whatever. It is what it is. The guy playing Jonah wasn't as aggressive as in the comics and felt that they missed a huge part of the character with him but I could go.

This series deserves a DVD release and so does a English subtitled version of the Japanese Spider-Man series. I seriously wanna add to my collection ahahhhaahahhaahahha What I loved about this show was the retro feeling you get just by watching it.

I remember watching this when it was on back in the seventies. I loved spiderman so much I would watch it but it was pretty boring until the spiderman scenes. Even then it was sorta lame. Always loved the original cartoon, gotta love rhino man

I used to hate this series as a kid but now it's one of my favorite things ever.. such a 70s corporate take on Spidey, you just know nobody involved with the production has ever read a comic book in their life.

I only ever watched 2 episodes and I thought they were both stupid. Like the one where Peer is cloned and the clone ends up dying because he accidentally swings into an electrical box on a telephone pole.
Or the one where he chases after some badguys in a warehouse full of tobacco and he's allergic to it.

When the Story Lady tells us about the naughty boy who blew up his goldfish.

They could have at least done Kraven or Kingpin

I just started to think about this. Was there any conceivable way that you could've had Spidey's comic book rogues gallery (Green Goblin, Dr. Octopus, Vulture, Sandman, Mysterio, Electro, Lizard, Rhino, Scorpion, etc.) appear on a 1970s TV budget?
