What Parents Need to Know
About Spider Riders
Parents need to know that although this series focuses on an ongoing war between the Spider Riders and evil mutant insects called the Invectid, it's all lighthearted fun. The teenage warriors model positive behavior by taking on the huge responsibility of defending their land -- and working together to do so -- and the evil characters are non-threatening to the point of being comical at times. Obviously, there are plenty of insects, so it might not be the best choice for bug-phobic kids.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the changes Hunter must deal with as he adjusts to his new life as a Spider Rider. How does he react to becoming a Spider Rider? Is he daunted by the prospect or excited? Do you think he really knows what's involved, or is he in for some big surprises? How does he handle his new powers? How would you feel if you were suddenly thrown into a strange land and had to adjust to a whole new life -- and, on top of that, were given special powers to help defend the land?

Poorly Executed
I watched the premiere with my son. This is a pretty derivative, unimaginative show. And although some of the backgrounds looked pretty nice, the execution is poor. The voices of the spiders don't have any quality that differentiates them from humans. We were pretty bored by it.
