The Amazing Spiez () is an animated television series developed by Vincent Chalvon-Demersay and David Michel. This show is a spin-off of Totally Spies!, jointly produced by Marathon Media, Image Entertainment Corporation, and Canal J. It first aired on TF1 in France on April 1, 2009, and wrapped up its run on May 25, 2012.

The storyline follows four siblings—Lee, Marc, Megan, and Tony Clark—who are recruited by the W.O.O.H.P (World Organization Of Human Protection) to serve as international spies. The plot weaves together their covert operations with the typical challenges of everyday family life.

Characters

  • Lee Clark (French voice by Donald Reignoux, English voice by Andrew Sabiston) is the eldest sibling at 13 years old (later 14) and serves as the group's strongest operative. Athletic and robust, he fulfills both big brother and paternal roles, always placing his siblings' safety first. His spy suit and MPCom feature a red color scheme. Lee pilots the jet and has claustrophobia. He also exhibits a tendency toward romantic pursuits reminiscent of Clover’s boy-crazed behavior. His appearance includes auburn flat-top hair, pale blue eyes, and fair skin. His typical outfit consists of a red shirt emblazoned with a white "W," burgundy trousers, red-and-white footwear, and a matching wristband.
  • Marc Clark (voiced by Alexandre N'Guyen in French and Peter Cugno in English) is the 12-year-old (later 13) intellectual of the team who proudly identifies as the 'Family Geek.' He possesses extensive knowledge across numerous fields but encounters difficulties in social situations. His spy suit and MPCom are blue. Occasionally, he takes over piloting duties from Lee or Megan. Marc has ginger hair, brown eyes, and fair skin, dressing in a blue two-tone hoodie layered over a white shirt, dark green cargo pants, and blue-and-white shoes. He shares his mother's hair color and skin tone with Lee.
  • Megan Clark (voiced by Caroline Mozzone in French and Alyson Court in English) is Marc's fraternal twin sister and a spirited 12-year-old girl (later 13). She is environmentally aware and highly competitive but often underestimated by her brothers. Her spy suit and MPCom are pink. Megan occasionally pilots the jet as well. Her look resembles Alex from Totally Spies! with black swept-back hair, green eyes, and darker skin likely inherited from her aunt Trudy. She typically wears a pink zip-up hoodie exposing her midriff, a pink skirt paired with white leggings, and pink shoes adorned with fuchsia pom-poms.
  • Tony Clark (voiced by Céline Ronté in French and Julie Lemieux in English) is the youngest sibling at age 11 (later 12), known for his hyperactive and impulsive personality. His yellow spy suit and MPCom reflect his energetic demeanor; his favorite gadget is the Freezdiscs. Tony shares a bedroom with Marc. Like Megan, he sports black hair styled distinctively, green eyes, dark skin, a yellow long-sleeved shirt beneath a blue jacket, blue pants, yellow-and-white shoes, and a grey belt.
  • Jerry Lewis (voiced by Jean-Claude Donda in French and Adrian Truss in English) serves as WOOHP’s founder and administrator. A formal British gentleman, he assigns missions to the Spiez, provides their gadgets, and offers operational support. His age and baldness often make him the target of lighthearted teasing.
  • Tami (voiced by Delphine Braillon in French and Sugar Lyn Beard in English) is a popular 13-year-old rival attending the same school as the Spiez. Spoiled and somewhat arrogant, she frequently irritates the team—especially Megan—and bears resemblance to Mandy from Totally Spies! without being overtly malicious. In "Operation: Scary Jerry Part 2," she inadvertently assists Jerry’s scheme before having her memory erased. Throughout the series, Tami is seen wearing various outfits.
  • Cal Clark (voiced by Emmanuel Garijo in French and Dan Petronijevic in English) is Karen's husband and father to the Spiez children. A former OOPSIE agent who once defeated Alpha and Omega alongside Karen, Cal now owns a sports store and emphasizes discipline within his household. He remains unaware of his children’s involvement with WOOHP.
  • Karen Clark (voiced by Alexandra Garijo in French and Liz Ramos in English) is Cal’s wife, sister to Aunt Trudy, mother of the Spiez siblings, and also an ex-OOPSIE agent unaware of her children’s secret spy activities.
  • Trudy Vanderhoug is the Clark children’s aunt—Karen’s sister—known for her inquisitive nature. Her surname was disclosed in “Operation: Nano Spiez.”
  • Recurring figures include Sam, Clover, Alex, Britney from Totally Spies!, along with antagonists introduced during its fifth season who make occasional appearances.

Broadcast

The Amazing Spiez was broadcast on Cartoon Network across the United States, on MBC 3 throughout the Arab region, and on India's Discovery Kids. Starting from April 16, 2022, fresh episodes have been released every Saturday via the official Totally Spies! YouTube channel. Additionally, the series operates its own dedicated YouTube channel, established in 2013, which showcases selected episode clips.

Reception

Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media provided a balanced critique, awarding the show a rating of 3 out of 5 stars. She highlighted the program’s emphasis on action and adventure but characterized much of its content as unremarkable, recommending it as a safe yet unexceptional option for children's entertainment.
