STAS: Peter and MJ's Wedding!
The Superhero Show Show #584STAS: Peter and MJ's Wedding!The Superhero Show Show: Chaos at Peter and MJ's Wedding
This week on The Superhero Show Show, the hosts pop the champagne—then immediately spill it—as they break down one of the most anticipated episodes of Spider-Man: The Animated Series: Peter and MJ's Wedding. In Season 5, Episode 1, “The Wedding,” Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson are finally ready to say “I do.” But this ceremony is anything but ordinary. With supervillains crashing the party and the Kingpin secretly funding the festivities, the hosts dive into a chaotic, emotional, and unforgettable episode.
A Love Worth Fighting ForThe episode begins with a quiet sense of hope. Peter and Mary Jane prepare for their big day, and the hosts take a moment to appreciate the journey that led here. Over the past four seasons, their relationship has endured twists, heartbreak, and danger. Now, fans get the romantic payoff they’ve been waiting for.
Although Peter’s usually seen in a mask, this time he’s donning a tuxedo. The team enjoys the rare chance to see Spider-Man chase something personal, not just another villain.
Suddenly, the celebration takes a dark turn. The Green Goblin crashes the ceremony in a truly unhinged entrance. Even worse, he demands to marry Mary Jane himself. The hosts are stunned by this villainous twist and the sheer absurdity of the moment.
Moreover, they dive into the Goblin’s obsession with MJ. It adds a disturbing edge to his character and transforms the episode from romantic drama to psychological thriller. This wasn’t just an attack—it was deeply personal.
Then comes another shocking reveal: Wilson Fisk is paying for the wedding. The team debates his motives. Is he trying to manipulate Spider-Man, or does he see this as a way to polish his public image?
Either way, it’s unsettling. Having the Kingpin involved in any celebration instantly taints it. The hosts note how this decision adds moral complexity to what should have been a joyous day.
Just when things couldn’t get worse, they do. The Scorpion kidnaps Aunt May during the chaos. This unexpected twist increases the emotional stakes. Peter now faces a choice—fight for his loved ones or finally get his happy ending.
The hosts discuss how this moment reflects Peter’s core struggle. Even during major life events, he can’t escape the responsibility of being a hero.
Despite the madness, there are quiet moments of beauty. MJ stands by Peter through it all. Their bond feels real and resilient.
Eventually, the ceremony continues. Peter and Mary Jane finally exchange vows. Their kiss seals more than just a marriage—it marks a turning point in the series.
The hosts agree: this episode is a rollercoaster. Between the Green Goblin’s shocking demand, Kingpin’s financial involvement, and the Scorpion’s kidnapping of Aunt May, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Yet, Peter and MJ’s Wedding still delivers powerful emotion, earned character development, and a love story that shines through the chaos.
