Well, I can see your point about M.J. and some of the villains, such as Doc Ock, Shocker, Rhino, etc., but there were some elements that diverged away from mainstream but in a good way. Kraven the Hunter is a great example of what I'm talking about. In TAS, he was only concerned about protecting Mariah Crawford and nothing else, and his character, I felt, was very looked into. Also, Seasons 4 to 5 are the most emotional moments of the series. I loved the depression and dilemma that Spidey went through when he lost M.J. to the Green Goblin at the end of Season 3, only to find her, then lose her again when he found out she was a clone. The second part of The Return of Hydro Man had probably the most emotional moment of the whole series when Spidey broke down in tears when M.J.'s clone died.

All in all, I do see where you stand on Spectacular, but you have to take into consideration the fact that it only lasted for 2 seasons. TAS lasted for 5. And I'm aware of the fact that Spectacular wasn't renewed for it's intentional 65 episode limit because of the deal between Disney and Marvel, but that doesn't change the fact that TAS was the most enduring Spider-Man show to ever air.
