Confirmed from the podcast on the DVD releases:
There will be three DVDs with the episodes spliced together as a movie, with Addition Footage! The DVDs will be release this year. Nothing is confirmed on the season boxset.
On a side-note: Didn't the VIPs confirmed that there were some unseen footage from KP's 4th season? If so, it would be great to see that on the hopfully soon to be release season sets. Fingers crossed.
No word when it will be airing in the UK or other countries.

New Interview with Mary Jane voice actress Vanessa Marshall:
After a brief introduction two weeks ago, popular voiceover artist Vanessa Marshall brings Mary Jane Watson to animated life in the character's first full episode of "The Spectacular Spider-Man" this Saturday, April 26. Entitled "Catalysts," the episode premieres at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on Kids' WB! on The CW.
A veteran voiceover artist with credits ranging from animated films and television to video games and commercials, Marshall has embraced the role of Mary Jane, bringing forth all of the character's autonomous, free spirit.
"I always make sure my choices for Mary Jane are that of an independent thinker, that she's not concerned with what the people around her think, which is an uncommon trait in teenage girls," Marshall says. "There's a distinct confidence about her that I try to emulate."
Marshall earned a Masters Degree in Acting from NYU, however she has spent the majority of her career in the recording booth. While she admits her initial goal was to act on camera, voiceover work has allowed Marshall to have success in the entertainment business without having to endure the endless scrutiny of maintaining the "Hollywood look."
"A lot of the rejection in on-camera work comes because of how you look," explains Marshall, a radiant redhead much like her animated character. "Voiceovers open up a great deal of creative freedom. I've played an African-American boy for 36 episodes of 'Grim & Evil" – so I'm able to cross virtually all racial and gender lines, explore all kinds of new roles, and you just can't do that on camera. I have a passion for acting – and in voiceovers, I get to bring it all to the microphone."
Marshall has crafted an extremely diverse resume, ranging from on-camera and voiceover acting to stand-up comedy, the creation of her own one-woman show, and her current focus on penning a novel. Still, Marshall admits that the fanboy deeply embedded in her psyche leapt for joy when landing the role of Mary Jane.
"I was in the middle of doing a Honda commercial, and my knees went out from under me," Marshall says. "I rarely get to play a woman or a girl – it's always boys. So when my agent Cathey (Lizzio) called, she just said, 'Hello, is this Mary Jane?' Well, my knees fell out and I hyperventilated. The commercial producers were very concerned. I don't think they understood how momentous that was. It's an absolute honor."
Interestingly, "Spider-Man" performances run in the family. Marshall has stepped into the role of Mary Jane Watson, and 20-something years ago, Marshall's mother, actress Joan Van Ark, voiced Spider Woman on the 1980s animated Spidey series. But it was Spidey's original material that initially caught Marshall's eye. An admitted comic book lover, Marshall is well-educated on the history of the character and enjoys keeping that knowledge in mind while giving voice to Mary Jane during her early, formative days.
"Mary Jane's character is incredibly complex," Marshall says. "Her strength plays a major part in Peter's growth and maturation – she really keeps him on the straight and narrow. Even though our characters are still only in high school during this cartoon, and you're not going to get a lot of that character development at this point of the series, I know it's going to be there in the future and so that has an effect on how I play her now."

The Big G! Who the heck is Big G...Green Goblin? Yes, I just referred to him as the 'Big G' for the fun of it you know like the Big Bad Goblin or Gobby, I thought it would be obvious. It's the Green Goblin, the guy is Spidey's arch-foe and all around bada**. This episode is looking great!

Ok Greg Weisman and Victor Cook, you have been doing great with Spidey thus far now I have to say this episode on a scale of 1-10 it would be an 11!
The episode starts off with Spidey mid fight with the Green Goblin and proceeds to tell the rest of the episode in a flashback. We meet John Jameson son of J. Jonah Jameson and we all know where this is heading to, The Symbiote/Venom arc. Both Jamesons both head of to the party held by L. Thompson Lincohn/Tombstone who is the Big Man(or might not be). Meanwhile Harry is continuing fitting in with the popular crowd and that's when Peter and MJ comes in, Flash will have to dress as a cheerleader for Halloween, Gwen's jealous and Eddie does not seem to please with Peter believing that he lied and ditch Gwen. Harry's night is not going well after Peter stills his thunder with MJ at his arm. Harry loses his date when Glory gets back together with Kenny/Kong(a character from the Ultimate books).
Now here is the interesting part Harry leaves the gym to his locker and drinks a serum...afterwards we are treated to the Goblin. This smells like a red herring but I like it, keep the Green Goblin's indentity a secret. And Gobby kicks all around a**! Peter had to leave MJ after getting a call from the Bugle to take picture of the new Green meanie. MJ handles the crowd great, finally we get the spunky redhead from the books. She isn't faze about Peter having to ditch her...unless she knows that Peter is Spidey.
Trivia: Mary Jane always knew Peter was Spider-Man since the night Uncle Ben was killed. I hope Greg and co. adds this to their version of Mary Jane.
In the end the Goblin gets away and more tease of Gobby being Harry but one other key character is missing, Norman Osborn.
I believe that the serum Harry is taking is a performance enhancer that will subsitute for Harry's drug addiction from the books.
Overall the episode was spectacular(no pun intended)!
Next week we have Doc Ock!

The Green Goblin makes his debut on April 26th. For KP fans an interesting piece of trivia last week's episode The Invisible Hand was directed by Dave Bullock who was storyboard artist on KP for episodes like 'Motor Ed', 'Sick Day', "Bueno Nacho' and 'The Twin Factor'.He's also done storyboarding for Crush, All The News, Sink or Swim, and So The Drama; IMO the last two contain the best storyboarding he's ever done on the show. He also was a storyboard artist for 1 episode last season, sadly his great storyboarding talents were wasted on Homecoming Upset. Personally I've always been of the opinion that David(or Dave) Bullock was the finest storyboard artist that worked on KP. Dave is one of few storyboard artists on the planet that's good at just about anything he does. Whether it be action, acting, etc. There's something about Bullock's cartoonish storyboarding that nobody else can touch. I do wonder if the VIP's tried to get Bullock to storyboard more than just 1 episode last season. Considering how hard David Bullock is to get for storyboarding it's understandable. Personally I wish he could've worked a little more on season 4, like say with the Graduation two parter. What could've been. Anyways I'm glad to see he's a director now. As he earned that right a long time ago.

Studio Conducted Interview with Peter MacNicol “Doc Ock” The next time you drop the "I'm too busy" excuse for some undone deed, consider the career of Peter MacNicol.
Over the past year, MacNicol could be found pulling the unheard-of simultaneous double duty as a core cast member in two hit primetime television series – "24" and "Numb3rs" – and was still able to devote an afternoon every other week to creating the voice of Dr. Otto Octavius and his villainous flipside, Doctor Octopus (aka Doc Ock), for the breakout animated series, "The Spectacular Spider-Man."
Now THAT'S busy.
While Dr. Octavius has had a submissive role in the first seven episodes of the series, Doc Ock makes his explosive debut this Saturday, May 3 in an all-new episode entitled "Reaction." The episode premieres at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on Kids' WB! on The CW.
MacNicol has crafted an extremely diverse and successful career, balancing primetime series starring roles (the aforementioned following the likes of "Ally McBeal" and "Chicago Hope") with numerous guest performances ("Boston Legal," "Cheers," "Tales From The Crypt"), not to mention feature film appearances ("Ghostbusters II," "Sophie's Choice") and, of course, his first starring role as Galen in the fan favorite, "Dragonslayer."
Despite all the on-camera work, MacNicol maintains a steady flow of voiceover roles in animated television series and movies, as well as being very popular in the books-on-CD arena. MacNicol's animated voiceovers cover a wide range – from lighter series like "The Wild Thornberrys," "Olive, the Other Reindeer" and "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" to the super hero-laden "Justice League," "The Batman" and now, "The Spectacular Spider-Man."
"Cartoon work is pure recreation for me, pure playtime," said MacNicol. "But 'Books-on-CD' – now that's work! Keeping even the minor characters straight in my head, giving each bit-part his/her/its own voice, working for days in that airless chamber of the recording booth, with my eyes playing tricks on me as the hours drag by, and the pages I'm narrating, which must be noiselessly turned, and the sheer whiteness of those pages, which begins to create a kind of snow-blindness by mid-afternoon.
"Once for an epic fantasy series, I had to voice literally dozens of elves, fairies, and ogres, all of different ages, sexes, and from many lands – with the hill dwarves needing to sound different from the valley dwarves. Had there been a window I would have jumped out of it."
Still, there is joy for MacNicol within the world of animation voiceovers. "My favorite moment on the job is that magic instant when you've got the voice just right and you can let go of the steering wheel and let the character drive."
MacNicol has found great pleasure in bringing villains to animated life – Doc Ock follows his previous portrayals of Chronos and Manbat ("I was very proud of the possibly-too-piercing shriek I devised for him"). For Doc Ock, MacNicol opted to channel the persona of a classic actor far outside the reference points for most Spidey fans.
"The voice I chose for Dr. Octopus was something of an homage to Laird Cregar, one of Hollywood's greatest 'heavies,' and I do mean 'heavies,' " MacNicol explained. "Throughout his brief 1940s career, Cregar waged a war to the death against his own obesity, ultimately losing too many pounds too quickly; he was barely 30 when he died. In his two greatest movies, 'Hangover Square' and 'The Lodger,' he seemed so haunted and hulking, and I loved that soft menacing voice of his. Still, I'm no mimic and it was Cregar's quality rather than his voice which gave me my model."
MacNicol admits he enjoys devouring the role of a villain, pointing out the extreme texture the dark side adds to any story – particularly in super hero tales.
"It's all relative – this business of hero or villain," MacNicol said. "After all, villains are somebody's hero – certainly they've won the devotion of their cronies, their parents, and perverse fans like myself who actually prefer them over the title characters. Yep, it would be a pretty dull universe if we didn't have Rhino, Sandman and Doc Ock trying to destroy it."
Dr. Octopus makes his explosive debut this Saturday, May 3rd, in an all-new The Spectacular Spider-Man episode entitled "Reaction." The episode premieres at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on Kids' WB! on The CW.

Interview with writer, Randy Jandt on this week's episode: Writer Randy Jandt makes his "The Spectacular Spider-Man" debut with a tight, exciting, frequently funny script that offers Doctor Octopus entrée into the series this Saturday, May 3 in the all-new episode, "Reaction." The episode, directed by Jennifer Coyle, premieres at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on Kids' WB! on The CW.
In the episode, the nebbishy Dr. Otto Octavius is painfully transformed – by the meddling hands of the Green Goblin – into the menacing Doctor Octopus. The newest villain to hit town, Doc Ock releases his initial anger on Norman Osborne before turning his attention toward Spider-Man as the pair battle for the ultimate power source to Doc Ock's extended limbs.
Jandt took a few moments this week to answer three quick questions regarding his thought process in penning the script for the episode.
Question: This was both your first script for the series AND the series debut of a character that has been so well-defined in comics and then received even greater fame in the second Spidey film. Was there any level of intimidation writing this episode?
Randy Jandt: The opportunity to write for Spider-Man was both thrilling and a bit daunting, primarily because of the elevated expectations of such a high-profile, established franchise. In addition, because such industry-respected stalwarts like Greg Weisman and Vic Cook were at the helm, there was pressure (which I put on myself) to make sure the work was up to their high standards. The flip-side of this pressure, however, was the privilege to be a part of something very innovative and exciting. BECAUSE of what Greg and Vic bring to the show, they truly are taking something old, and making it new and really fresh again. The show's ratings speak volumes. "
(NOTE: "The Spectacular Spider-Man" earned some of its best ratings of the season for last Saturday's debut of the Green Goblin. The episode swept all of its key demographics for its timeslot and was one of the highest rated kids broadcast network shows of the morning).
Question: What were the obstacles for you in introducing Doc Ock into the series?
Interestingly, Randy Jandt: The challenge to writing this episode and specifically, introducing Doctor Octopus, was to keep in mind the expectations and history with a show/character like this – so my approach was rather simple: be mindful of the history, listen to the direction and guidance of Greg Weisman, and then write an episode with a good, entertaining story that is packed with as much action and humor as 22 minutes will allow.
Question: Knowing all that has come before in the comics, and being aware of the storyline of Spider-Man 2, what did you seek to do with the characters – particularly Doc Ock – within this episode?
Randy Jandt: In terms of deviating or staying true to character and story from the comics, the show's creators didn't think there was need to reinvent the wheel, but rather take and use all the elements that made Spider-Man such a fan favorite and then expand on it. However, with that said, the fact that Greg chose to NOT start out the show with Spider-Man/Peter Parker as an adult, but as a 16-year-old kid, was brilliant and liberating on a variety of levels. That fresh perspective of a young Spider-Man/Peter Parker translated to the entire spirit of the show. Doctor Octopus was challenging because he had such a range of character. From weak and meek genius, Otto Octavius to Megalomaniacal Doctor Octopus — that's an amazing jump, filled with chances to create great drama … and humor!. When you add the techy bells and whistles of his arms/harness, bringing this iconic character to life was extraordinarily fun to do.

"Reaction" rating: 8/10
A great episode, the best part of the episode is it's villain Dr. Octopus. Plenty of nods to Spider-Man 2 in this episode. I figure that Peter was going on a date on Coney Island just didn't figure that it was Liz. Flash seems to want to put the moves on MJ inviting her to the game and spending time with her on Coney Island where his girlfriend Liz is with Pete. It was Liz that invited Peter to tag along. Flash breaks up with Liz at this episodes end. Now Gwen, sweet Gwen is concern over Harry after seeing him taking a concrete nap at school. Harry brushes it off as being tired out after the game(where he display amazing agility). No proper interaction between Gwen and MJ yet, though during Ock's attack MJ tries to help Gwen only having Spidey save them. Now the fun part is trying to guess who IS the Green Goblin...is it Norman or Harry? Continuing our little red herring from last episode we still see Harry taking the goublin green formula and he is apparently getting addicted to it. Norman after being absent for last episode(maybe not if he is the one under the mask), makes an appearance. Hints is that Norman or Harry could be the Goblin are thrown at us at the end where Harry is home drinkng the formula again and Norman giving a evil grin after being inform that Big Man's territories are being attack by the Goblin. The Fights with Spidey and Ock were the highlight of the episode and Gobby(still not knowing who is behind the mask) makes a cameo being the one responsible for Otto transformation. John Jameson is launch into space, and we know what he is bringing back.....
Next Week's episode full on Green Goblin again and John Jameson returns from his mission bringing back the symbiote.

Greg Weisman has confirmed that the DVD releases will be this year with addition footage that was cut put back in. Promo Pics for this week's episode: Hammerhead(John DiMaggio) and the Green Goblin(Steve Blum) MJ dressed as vamp, and checking out Peter. Gwen looks POed. " The Uncertainty Principle," this Saturday's premiering episode at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on Kids' WB!/The CW, presents a number of perplexing situations for Peter Parker and Spider-Man as they both try to find clarity amid the masks, mysteries and menace of Halloween. While Colonel John Jameson struggles to land his damaged space shuttle, Spider-Man continues his ongoing battle with Green Goblin, who also threatens Hammerhead and Tombstone. Still, Peter's greatest challenge will be facing the awful truth when he finally learns the Goblin's "true" identity. "The Uncertainty Principle" is written by Kevin Hopps and directed by David Bullock. The episode will follow a repeat airing at 9:30 a.m. ET/PT of the episode "Catalysts," which features villains Green Goblin and Tombstone. Great that David Bullock will be directing this episode as the direction for 'The Invisible Hand' was spectacular!

New instudio interview with Kevin Hopps Acclaimed animation writer Kevin Hopps offers his third script of the "The Spectacular Spider-Man" season in "The Uncertainty Principle," an all-new episode premiering Saturday, May 10 at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on Kids' WB!/The CW. Hopps has worked in the animated realm for nearly two decades, amassing a lengthy list of writing credits that ranges from "Darkwing Duck," "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" and "Loonatics Unleashed" to the "Justice League," "Hellboy: Blood & Iron" and "Transformers: Animated." He has drafted four scripts for the first season of "The Spectacular Spider-Man" – "Interactions" featuring the debut of Electro; "Competition," which introduced Sandman; "The Uncertainty Principle," the Green Goblin's second starring role; and the series' first season finale. Hopps took time away from his work on several second-season scripts to discuss his work in the first season and, in particular, this weekend's "The Uncertainty Principle." "The Uncertainty Principle" is the third episode you've written this season. Does it get easier as the season progresses, or more complicated as the "web" continues to grow?It gets easier now that I've seen some of the episodes animated and heard the characters' voices, but new characters and new plot lines always bring new challenges. Fortunately, 'The Spectacular Spider-Man' is a spectacularly fun series to write for. Thus far this season, you've written for three villains -- Electro, Sandman, and now you get to expand upon Green Goblin. How did you approach each, and do you have a writing preference among the villains?Before I began writing any of the villains, I re-read all the comics I could get my hands on that featured Electro, Sandman and Green Goblin. As to preference – I love all the villains I've been lucky enough to include in my scripts. They each bring something new to the series – their motivations are different and, therefore, they interact with Spider-Man is different in their own special ways. I like the humanity of Electro – here's a person who didn't ask to be a villain, but found himself thrust into that role. I love the ordinary-ness of the motivation for Sandman – he's just basically a crook who suddenly finds himself with super powers. Then there's Goblin – you might consider him crazed, but he's truly brilliant and has thought things out far in advance. He's always several steps ahead of where you think he is. So while I'm writing Goblin, I'm always trying to keep in mind where he's going next. I'm not allowed to say what I'm writing for second season, but I can say that sometimes it gets a little harder when you write a character a second time because you have to top what you did the first time. A good example for this season is Spider-Man's battle with the Green Goblin in the episode coming this weekend. I had to pay special attention to the battles from the episode that aired two weeks ago, and concentrate on how we could make it different and really up the stakes. You have a lengthy history of writing for comics/super hero animation. What's your personal satisfaction working in that realm?I just love this genre – both in live-action and in animation. I started out in comedy, writing sitcoms, then animation comedies – but I realized the movies and TV shows I mostly watched were action adventure. And so, whenever possible, that's what I try to write. Of course, I like to think I'm able to add a good deal of humor to the action I write. It's fun to write a variety of characters, too – both in terms of jumping from show to show, and from heroes to villains. Spider-Man and Hellboy present that kind of variety. The key differences come in their age and their motivation – those factors help give them distinctly different personalities and attitudes. Even though he has all this teen angst, Spidey still really has fun with being a super hero, and he lets it show. Hellboy is older and more mature – he keeps his emotions more in check. I don't really have favorites, but I guess if I was creating a character of my own, it would probably be Spidey – between the character's comedy, action and humanity, he all the elements I like to write. Is there a super hero you haven't written for yet that you still wish to work on, and why?To paraphrase, and lay ruin to, a famous quote: I never met a super hero I wouldn't write. Spider-Man, however, is ideal since he combines super hero heroics with teenage real-life problems (and a healthy dose of humor combined with action). As for super villains, well, after the Green Goblin, I'm writing another classic Spidey villain – but I guess you'll just have to keep watching to find out who that is. Is there another genre that you would like to explore?I never know what next is in store. I've done a lot of comedy and even a fair amount of pre-school programs. They all flex different writing muscles. And I love combining the comedy and action when I can. Even while writing one of the Hellboy animated movies, I was able to add a little comedy to the more adult-themed action. Oh, and one more thing: Hi Mom! Promo Pics:

Well Green Goblin is looking good. I await when we see who it is under the mask. (Will they pull a fast and have the son start before the father?)
Have to say wish the tv I watched at the time had the CW come in better. Dang analog tv.

Have to say wish the tv I watched at the time had the CW come in better. Dang analog tv. I personally think Harry is a red herring to throw off the audience. The formula is basically an easier way to bypass the censors to adapt Harry's drug addiction storyline from the books. In the end I believe Norman will be reveal as the Goblin and will suffer amneisa just like in Amzing Spider-Man #39.

The Uncertainty Principle
10/10
A great episode, and Harry is reveal to be the Goblin. I find that to be all too obvious. Last episode we saw Norman giving off that evil grin and in this episode him coming out of a secret area in his own home. I expected Harry under the mask(even though I wanted it to be Norman) but I feel Norman is pulling strings here. Await season 2 to continue the Goblin mystery. Nothing is obvious on this show at all. Overall it was a great episode and handled very well and yes next episode kick starts the symbiote/Venom storyline.
