Spider and Fly is a series of Nickelodeon shorts that takes place in an old tool shed, based on a segment from The Toons From Planet Orange. The original short featured Spider, unexpectedly, does not want to eat Fly, but the tasty dishes you can expect Fly to be whipping up (like pizza or pie). However, Spider's food stealing plots never succeed, and Fly always defeats Spider, by doing simple things that would hurt Spider, like opening an umbrella just as he was falling onto him, thus pricking his bottom with the pointy tip. In the end, we see Fly eating his meal, and Spider is waving a fist in a grudge-holding manner.
Spider & Fly is not currently playing on Nicktoons Network except in Asia during advertisement breaks. It also appears on the South African Nickelodeon network, where it serves as a potent analogy for the injustices of apartheid.
The series was directed by Michael Wright. It was scripted by Stan Culimore and Michael Wright and voiced by Stan Cullimore from 80's UK band The Housemartins.
