Marvel Studios’ Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Debuts With Rare Rotten Tomatoes Score – CBR

Marvel Studios and the Marvel Cinematic Universe have multiple projects in store for 2025, and it just kicked off the year right. After months of anticipation, its new animation series, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, is out, and it features a rare Rotten Tomatoes score.The animated series is the 12th television series from the MCU, produced by Marvel Studios Animation. Although the new series explores Peter Parker’s origin story and journey to becoming Spider-Man, it is not set in the same timeline as the rest of the films and series, and it changes Peter’s mentor from Tony Stark to Norman Osborn. Following the release of the first two episodes, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man debuted with a perfect 100% score from the critics on Rotten Tomatoes.’You ready to finish this, babe?’ Two lesser-known Spidey characters pop up in a Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man teaser trailer.The series’ debut score is exciting, however, it comes only from seven reviews. This means the final score might be lower as more reviews come in, but having the first reviews align perfectly to a 100% score is rare.Discussing Film’s Jacob Fischer highlighted that, while everyone knows Peter Parker’s origin story, “the writing team on this series manages to add enough unique distinction from the MCU to make this feel like a totally fresh take on the famous web crawler,” highlighting that Season 1 “puts the series onto a solid start.”Fans get tested on when Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man streams.Original Cin’s John Kirk highlights Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man “sets out to successfully … integrate the original Spider-Man story into one with modern trappings.” while Collider’s Mike Thomas called it a “love letter” to the famous web-slinger, while praising the show’s diversity, the vision, and the small twists from the already-known story, which makes it “enough for a fun watch,” a sentiment shared by MovieWeb’s Julian Roman, who also praises the diversity and appeal for tweens and teens.Although most reviewers had the opportunity to watch the entire series before making an opinion as a whole, most of the audience only had two episodes to rate the series. Although the initial debut audience score for Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Season 1 isn’t a perfect rating like the one from the critics, it seems encouraging enough.For now, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man boasts an 80% approval score out of less than 50 ratings, but most of the comments are encouraging. Fans praised the action, the humor, and the premise, as well as the animation. Similar to the reviews, fans also highlighted the team behind the animated series, created by Jeff Trammell, truly understands the character and love Spider-Man and everything about him.The fact that both scores are positive bodes well for the series, which dealt with some fan criticism when it comes to the animation. Creator Trammell defended the animation, noting, “I think our style grows on you. So, I would say ‘give it a chance,'” he said in an interview with TechRadar. At the same time, Peter Parker voice actor Hudson Thames experienced backlash over this reaction to the series. The actor shared his excitement that the series is not “woke,” something that caught fans’ attention online.The first two episodes of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man are available to stream on Disney+, with the streaming service set to release batches of three episodes every Wednesday until its Feb. 19 finale, which consists of two episodes.Source: Rotten TomatoesYour comment has not been savedWe want to hear from you!
