This wasn’t on my bingo card for 2026. The first live-action Spider-Man TV series since the 1970s stars 62-year-old Nicolas Cage in 1930s New York, doing a Humphrey Bogart impression. The show is available in both black-and-white and color, and it kicks off with “Step Into My Office,” introducing Ben Reilly as a down-on-his-luck private investigator who has retired his superhero identity, The Spider, after his fiancée’s passing. Naturally, the series doesn’t plan on letting him stay retired for long. On the podcast, we break down the pilot, discuss our favorite and least favorite parts, decide whether black-and-white or color is the way to go, and land on our ultimate rating. Tune in.
