Summary: It was okay...
Comment: To be honest, what got me to buy this item were the reviews saying that this is a stellar series. I hadn't seen any of the episodes proir to the purchase, and have only dabbled in the comics. I love Todd McFarlane's work, and find it very good for the most part. Not that this is BAD, it just isn't as great as everyone has made it out to be. The animation is very slick for the time it was made, but is slightly outdated for the picky viewers. The dialogue and plot pretty much follow the general idea of the comics, but stray a bit (as is necessary to do in order to keep a coherent story). The voice-overs were pretty good (except for the old wizard guy, Cogliostro, who made it feel like I was watching a discovery channel show on Spawn rather than an action series) and the story flowed nicely from episode to episode, often times making it difficult to tell when one episode ends and the other begins. They also reused several shots a few too many times. It's okay to recycle shots to save money, but when it is noticeable to the veiwer, then there is a problem. For the most part the series was entertaining, but it's nothing I would record on my Tivo. It was just okay for me, and there was no huge dissappointment when it ended, like others have said, because, honestly, I didn't care that terribly about the characters. This is a show I would watch if it was on, but wouldn't go out of my way to make sure I saw every episode. It was just okay for me...

Summary: A keeper to pass on to the next generation in animation
Comment: Love the Series, but why did they stop making it? Great storyline throughout the series didn't stray away from the comics stuck with it and the artwork amazing. Todd McFarlane at his best since spider man. Great adult action lots of violence and vulgarity but what do you expect from the mind of Mc Farlane dancing teddy bears and flying horses. Spawn was and is his best creation and nothing can replace this series. I will never get sick of watching this. You rock McFarlane and spawn

Summary: Wish it continued....
Comment: This series is definitely for the mature. Very dark and not at all happy, fairly depressing. But I really really liked the third season. Would love to see where they were taking this series.

Summary: I remember this being a lot better
Comment: I watched this series when it first aired. I thought it was great.
I watched it again last night...I thought it was kind of bad.

The animation is very cheap. They use the same animation over and over to save money. But even the artwork is cheaply done.

The story is as good as ever. But the voice acting helps to bring it down. Everybody is on one note through the entire thing. Which gets old and boring fast.

Bad animation and bad voice acting really hurt this series. I wish they'd redo it.

Summary: The Original Mofo!
Comment: Ok, the movie wasn't THAT bad, but nothing compares to the HBO Original Series, animated version of Spawn. The movie could have been so much better had they stuck to this format, but I understand you wanna clean things up so the kiddies can come along too and make that extra money.

This was well worth the money.
