* IKnewIt: The synopsis for the episode "The Sinister Six", which, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin introduces the Sinister Six]], describe their members as being Lizard, Rhino, Electro, Kraven, Beetle and "a secret sixth member". Considering that 1) [[spoiler:Dr. Octopus]] is the leader of the group in most incarnations and 2) This version of him [[spoiler: is indirectly responsible for the creation of two of them]], nobody really was surprised when the spoiler images confirmed it was him.

* AscendedFancast: Coming off ''Series/{{Community}}'', Creator/DonaldGlover was a very popular choice for the role of Miles Morales, the ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'', and even actively campaigned for it ahead of ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries''. Though he eventually aged out of playing the role in live action, Glover got the chance to voice Miles in this show.

* ActingForTwo:
** Creator/TomKenny voices Doc Ock, Wizard, Curt Connors (before "The Iron Octopus") and Vulture. "Iron Vulture" even has frequent banter between Ock and Vulture.
** Creator/TaraStrong voices Mary Jane and Thundra. There's even a brief exchange of dialogue between MJ and Thundra during the pilot.
** Matt Lanter voices Flash Thompson and Harry Osborn. The episode "Anti-Venom" milks this trope for all its worth, similar to "Iron Vulture" with Tom Kenny.

Creator/JephLoeb went on to ''confirm'' those rumors. Viewers have pointed out that if Loeb's word becomes true, it would open up a mess of contradictions.

* FanNickname: "Spider-Man and His Ultimate Friends" for the show because when it was first announced, fans expected the show to be an adaptation of the ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' comic book, but the actual show turned out to be a team-up series similar to the earlier ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManAndHisAmazingFriends'' cartoon.

* HostilityOnTheSet: Creator/SteveBlum has [[https://twitter.com/SpiderMumHex/status/957055290909904896?s=20 less than fond memories]] about working with Creator/DrakeBell, as the actor was more focused on his phone and created an uncomfortable tension in the studio.
* IKnewIt: The synopsis for the episode "The Sinister Six", which, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin introduces the Sinister Six]], describe their members as being Lizard, Rhino, Electro, Kraven, Beetle and "a secret sixth member".

* InMemoriam:
** "Out of ComicBook/DamageControl" is dedicated to Creator/DwayneMcDuffie, the man responsible for creating ''ComicBook/DamageControl'', and the CEO of Damage Control in the show is modeled after him.
** "ComicBook/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy" is dedicated to Creator/MichaelClarkeDuncan, who voiced Groot in that episode.
* TheOtherDarrin:
** Curt Connors being voiced by Creator/DeeBradleyBaker from "Iron Octopus" on, after having previously been voiced by Creator/TomKenny.
** Creator/PhilLaMarr and the late Creator/MichaelClarkeDuncan are replaced in the respective role of J.A.R.V.I.S. and Groot by the characters' respective voice actors on ''WesternAnimation/AvengersAssemble'', Creator/DavidKaye and Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson.
** Creator/TrevorDevall fills in as Rocket Raccoon from "The Return of the Guardians of the Galaxy", onward in [[WesternAnimation/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy his own series]].
** After being voiced by Creator/JackColeman in the first and third seasons, Creator/LiamOBrien took over as Doctor Strange beginning in the fourth season, also taking over the role in ''WesternAnimation/AvengersAssemble'' for its third season.
** Season 4 sees Creator/EricBauza and Ogie Banks replace Dante Basco and Donald Glover as Scorpion and Miles Morales.
* OutOfOrder: While not as bad as one of its [[WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries predecessors]] , this trope has taken affect at times. For example, in production order, the last 6 episodes of season 3 are the Halloween episode, the Christmas episode, and the 4 part Contest Of Champions finale. The former two aired on October and December 2014, while the finale aired in October 2015, over ''10 months'' later, with episodes taking place before the Halloween episode airing between the Christmas episode and the finale.
* PlayingAgainstType:
** Creator/TomKenny voices the aforementioned Doctor Octopus, who's incredibly quiet and menacing in this incarnation.
** Creator/WillFriedle, who normally plays the hero, as the crazy and psychotic Deadpool.
** Creator/ChristopherDanielBarnes, who's best known for voicing [[WesternAnimation/SpidermanTheAnimatedSeries Spider-Man himself]], as Electro and Wolf Spider.
* RecursiveAdaptation: The show has a comic adaptation called ''Marvel Universe: Ultimate Spider-Man'' that started in April 2012.
* RecycledScript: Both ''Freaky'' and ''The Incredible Spider-Hulk'' involve Spider-Man's mind getting swapped with that of another superhero's; Wolverine in the first episode, the Hulk in the second. Both times it's due to Mesmero, and someone else - Sabretooth and the Thing - attacks Spider-Man, adding extra complications.
* RelationshipVoiceActor: Who knew that Nova [[Series/ImInTheBand was in the band]], or that White Tiger was his childhood best friend?
* RoleReprise:
** The voice of J. Jonah Jameson is done by none other than Creator/JKSimmons, who previously played Jameson throughout the Film/SpiderManTrilogy directed by Creator/SamRaimi.
** Agent Coulson is voiced by Creator/ClarkGregg, who played the character in the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse.
** Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons are voiced by Iain De Caestecker and Elizabeth Henstridge, the actors who played them on ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD''.
** The episode "Flight of the Iron Spider" ended with the Living Laser ending up in the universe of ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperheroSquadShow'' and being attacked by the ''Super Hero Squad'' incarnation of Thor. The scene had Creator/DaveBoat reprise his role as Thor from that show (itself another case of this, as he first voiced Thor in the ''WesternAnimation/UltimateAvengers'' duology).
** Though initially voiced by Tom Kenny, starting with "The Iron Octopus", Dee Bradley Baker reprises the role of Curt Connors/The Lizard from ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan''. He likewise returns to voice Carnage.
** In "Return to the Spider-Verse: Part 2", Seth Green reprises his role of Howard the Duck from ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy''.
** In season 4, Ogie Banks reprises his ''VideoGame/MarvelHeroes'' role as Miles Morales.
** In the French dub, Nick Fury, Hulk, and Thor are voiced by Erwin Grünspan, Claudio Dos Santos, and Mathieu Moreau respectively, all of them reprising their roles from ''WesternAnimation/TheAvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes''. Also, Wolverine is voiced by Robert Dubois, reprising his role from ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution''.
* ShortRunInPeru: The UK Creator/DisneyXD gets the episodes before its Us counterpart airs them.
* TalkingToHimself:
** Creator/TomKenny voices Doc Ock, Wizard, Curt Connors (before "The Iron Octopus") and Vulture.
*** "Iron Vulture" has frequent banter between Ock and Vulture.
** Creator/TaraStrong voices Mary Jane and Thundra. There's even a brief exchange of dialogue between MJ and Thundra during the pilot.
** Matt Lanter voices Flash Thompson and Harry Osborn. The episode "Anti-Venom" milks this trope for all its worth, similar to "Iron Vulture" with Tom Kenny.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Creator/JoshKeaton, Creator/RobbieDaymond, and Creator/YuriLowenthal auditioned for the role of [[Comicbook/SpiderMan Peter Parker]] before the casting of Creator/DrakeBell. Daymond would eventually go on to voice the titular character in ''WesternAnimation/MarvelsSpiderMan'', while Lowenthal would voice him in ''[[WesternAnimation/TheSuperheroSquadShow The Super Hero Squad Show]]'' [[LicensedGame video game]] and ''VideoGame/SpiderManPS4''.
** An early promo poster showed Shroud (the costumed identity used by Kitty Pryde in the ''Ultimate Spider-Man'' comics) as part of the team instead of White Tiger.
