Spidey und seine Super-Freunde

Fun animation, but it's a total copy of PJ Masks, where you have three child heroes who go after the same three villains, and one of them always had a lesson to learn. Plus, kids shows nowadays think their audience are a bunch of idiots.

Is it enjoyable for parents to watch? Not really, but do kids love it? Of course, it's Spider-Man. It's not a show that is educational, but it doesn't have a lot of violence or fight scenes like other Spider-Man cartoons will have. It doesn't really fit with the lore or Spider-Man universe, but rather an option for kids to still enjoy the Spider-Man franchise.

I can see a few reviews indicating this show might be for an under 4 yo audience; as a parent of a 3.5 year old I agree but find this to be perfect for us! My son has always had a big interest in spiderman but we've struggled letting him watch it because of how violent or dark the other versions can be. That has surprised me for childrens shows but I understand they're marketed to older kiddos. When we found this show it is the perfect way of letting my son watch something he loves and often asked for but that is age appropriate. I also really appreciate the length of the shows. The cheesiness does not bother me and we actually really appreciate it and use it as a way of teaching our child certain lessons. Would recommend to oparents of 2.5 yo toddlers +.

This is a great show, I love that Gwen Stacy and Ghost Spider are getting more love, she's my son's favorite character. However The Green Goblins nickname in the show "Gobby" is slang for blowjob in Australia. I can't stop laughing while he is trying to watch it. Congratulations.

Starting with this review, I have a new points system. Each show has 5 elements - writing, characters, music, animation, and voice acting. Each element will be graded out of 2. If they all get 2 points, the show gets 10 stars. So let's swing into this review

Summary: Spidey and His Amazing Friends is Spider-Man for the preschool market, which is Disney Junior realizing how profitable Spider-Man and the other lower-deck Marvel characters are. It features Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Gwen Stacy.

Writing: The series has the child characters learning lessons like friendship and teamwork. While it's good for kids to learn these things, these lessons are becoming overused on Disney Junior. Kids aren't going to take away lessons from the show, they're just gonna ask their parents to buy toys. I'm not expecting Oscar-level writing, but at least do something different. Props for creativity with the setting though. And I do have to commend the writers for not putting Peter's backstory for the billonth time 1/2

Characters: Peter, Miles, and Gwen are now young children, and naturally they do childish things because of that - like argue over which ice cream flavor is the best. But they're each unique in their own way, and these differences and flaws contribute to their success. The villains are pretty entertaining because of how cheesy they are. Doc Ock would be far more sinister in any other production, but here she hams it up as a mere schoolyard bully with state of the art technology and I love it. 2/2

Music: I love Fall Out Boy and was pleasantly surprised with Patrick Stump contributing to the soundtrack. The theme song is very catchy and a nice change of pace from other Disney Junior theme songs. 2/2

Animation: The animation isn't the best, as it's rather blocky. I like the character designs and how they're super-deformed. Atomic Cartoons is better at 2D than 3D. That being said, it could've been worse. 1/2

Voice Acting; The voice actors are impeccable despite their age. They infuse energy into these iconic characters and make them seem like real children. Black Panther has a great actor with an African accent, showing us that he's from Wakanda. 2/2

Overall: 8/10.
