Marvel Bringing X-Men, Spider-Man TV Shows From Streaming to Cable (For a Limited Time)

Disney+ exclusives X-Men ’97 and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man are airing on cable, but only for a short time. 

In the 1990s — before the era of on-demand streaming services — Fox Kids network was where fans could tune in to Saturday morning cartoons like X-Men: The Animated Series (1992-97) and Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994-98). These days, where the Fox Kids block is a thing of the past and TV Guides are a relic of a bygone era, those beloved ’90s cartoons can be streamed anytime on Disney+ alongside the new Marvel Animation series X-Men ’97 (2024) and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (2025).

After launching Hits & Heroes, an always-on channel on Disney+ that featured throwbacks like the X-Men and Spider-Man animated series in cable-style programming before it was discontinued in May, The Walt Disney Company is bringing Disney+ exclusives X-Men ’97 and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man to cable.

Both of the Marvel Studios Animation series will join the line up of Disney-owned cable channel FXX starting today (June 30). The entire 10-episode first seasons of X-Men ’97 and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man are scheduled to air throughout the week, concluding with their respective season finales on Friday, July 4.

See the listings below for the airing schedule, which has sandwiched X-Men and Spider-Man between episodes of 20th Television animated series The Simpsons, King of the Hill, Futurama, Family Guy, and Bob’s Burgers.

X-Men ’97 — a decades-later revival of 1992’s X-Men: The Animated Series, which picks up where the original show left off in 1997 — premiered on Disney+ in 2024 as the first X-Men project produced by Marvel Studios. Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, a new animated Disney+ series set in a parallel timeline inspired by the MCU, swung onto the streaming platform earlier this year with Hudson Thames (Marvel’s What If…?) voicing the web-slinger. Both shows have sophomore seasons in the works at Disney+.
