History YMMV / SpiderMan1967

* MagnificentBastard: [[TricksterTwins The Human Fly Twins]] are a pair of circus [[LeParkour arcobats]] who turned to crime. One of the twins makes Spider-Man follow him on a wild goose chase, while the other one is free to commit robberies. Spider-Man captures the twins, but they are later patrolled. The twins go back to crime and commit robberies dressed up as Spider-Man and [[FrameUp frame him for their crimes]]. The twins later place a [[TrackingDevice fly tracer]] on Spider-Man, in order to track his movements, so they could frame him for more crimes and make Spider-Man look like a fool.

** "[[Recap/SpiderMan1967S03E10RevoltInTheFifthDimension Revolt in the Fifth Dimension]]": [[DimensionLord Infinata]] is the evil ruler of the alternate dimension Dementia-Five. Discovering that the people of the planet of Gorth have learned his secrets and put them into their digital library, Infinata destroys Gorth in retaliation. A scientist escapes Gorth and goes to Earth, makes contact with Spider-Man, and gives the library. Infinata learns Spider-Man has the library and summons him to Dementia-Five, [[MindRape tormenting him with illusions]] to make him give up the library.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUjmh3x3HmQ The theme song]] is shamelessly corny and energetic, much like Spidey himself, and has more or less been [[BootstrappedTheme adopted as the theme song for the entire franchise]]. It's the one that ''always'' plays when there's a Spider-Man balloon in the [[UsefulNotes/MacysThanksgivingDayParade Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade,]] and everyone instantly recognizes it. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br1qIyKWFp0 An orchestrated version]] has even been used as the theme for the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse version of the character starting with ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming''.

* NightmareFuel: "Revolt in the Fifth Dimension," an episode intended for the final season, was never aired by ABC (which aired the Season 1 episode "Sting of the Scorpion/Trick or Treachery" in its place) due to the network considering it to be too creepy for kids. They weren't too far off the mark; the episode itself is [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs one]] ''[[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs hell]]'' [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs of a trip]] and features an entire world getting destroyed.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: The show was meant for a young audience, but a few times, death was actually mentioned, and someone actually was allowed to spout the word "Hell" at least once.
* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: With the second season's vast dependence on stock footage taken from a completely different science fiction cartoon, the plots became ''very'' strange, involving mole men, aliens trying to escape the Earth, and NYC's skyline constantly depicted as being filled with menacing purple clouds.

** A screenshot showing Spider-Man pointing at an imposter is a common meme, often found with HypocriticalHumor screenshots. ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' [[spoiler:spoofs this scene after the credits, with Spider-Man 2099 as the "imposter", drawn in the same style as the '67 cartoon]]. ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' would also spoof the scene but with ''three'' Spider-Men!
