Funny / Spider-Man: The New Animated Series

• "Royal Scam"
  • The episode in general gives Kingpin a humorous portrayal as a Villainous Glutton. For instance, he threatens a subordinate who gives him a bag of fast food that he'll harm him if a single french fry is missing, causing the underling to insist that he doesn't "eat that crap". Later, Fisk prepares himself a cup of coffee and tops it with an assload of whipped cream.
  • Spidey gets a very good line during one of his fights with the Kingpin.
    Spider-Man: Are you going to send your henchmen to fight me, or did you already eat them?
• "Flash Memory":
  • Spider-Man getting drugged out of his mind on tranquilizer. A special mention goes to his fight with the extremely weakened Biker Twins, which devolves into all of them collapsing on the floor and awkwardly trying to hit each other.
  • Whenever he tries to shoot his webs, he just winds up doing he memetic How Do I Shot Web? phase while his webbing just hits the ground pathetically.
• "The Party":
  • MJ and Harry discuss the titular party:
    MJ: Sigma party tonight, you there?
    Peter: There's a party?
    Harry: (ignoring Peter) Yeah I'm in. You?
    MJ: Oh yeah, I'm definitely party deprived!
    Peter: There's a party?
    MJ: Uh… hello? What's the diff, Pete? Everytime anyone anywhere asks you to do anything, you're like unavailable!
    Peter: Not always!
    Harry: Uh-huh? Okay, "Hey Pete, there's a party tonight at the sigma's, wanna come?"
    Peter: (sigh) I gotta study. (Beat) How about if I come late?
    Harry: He's not coming.
    Peter: I'm serious!
    MJ: He's so not coming.
    Harry: Yeah, unless later means…
    Harry and MJ: (in unison) …Never!
    Peter: Hello? I said I'm coming! What am I? Invisible?
  • Harry later reveals him and MJ have a bet going on whether or not Peter would show up in the party. MJ says Peter would come, while Harry says he won't.
  • This much needed moment of levity in the end of such a dark episode, bear in mind this conversation is taking place near Doug Reisman's grave!
    MJ: …If you could've seen the hate in that… that creature's eyes!
    Peter: (sadly) I-I must've just missed it.
    Harry: Doug sure pissed off a lot of folks but he didn't deserve to get fried. (Double Take) "Just missed it?"
    MJ: You were there?
    Peter: Uh-huh! I got there late, like I said I would. I couldn't find you guys.
    MJ: (to Harry) He showed! You owe me 25 bucks!
    Harry: After all hell broke loose! That doesn't count!
  • Before that, Peter is trying to think whether or not he should go to the party.
    Peter: (walking around) This isn't studying! It should be no big! Why not just go to a party like everyone else? Just cause I'm not like everyone else? (camera pans to reveal Peter is actually walking upside down on the ceiling) I bet the X-Men get to go to parties! (Jumps back to the floor) Would the world like come to an end if Spider-Man took one lousy night off? (Cue people screaming outside) Okay, you made your point.
  • Spider-Man, as usual, provides a lot of funny one-liners during battles.
    (Spider-Man webs Electro's hands, who responds by burning them off)
    Spider-Man: Cute trick! Where were you when we had an energy crisis?
