Another offering from [[Marathon Media]], the studio behind ''[[Totally Spies!]]'' and ''[[Martin Mystery]]'', originally created for [[Disney Channel]] Asia, later imported into the [[Cartoon Network]]. The series, a sort of [[Spiritual Successor]] to ''Totally Spies'' featuring [[Spinoff Babies|much younger protagonists]], is about the adventures of four young siblings (Tony, Marc, Megan, and Lee Clark) who must balance their lives in middle school with their secret lives as spies working for WOOHP, the World Organization of Human Protection. Though Jerry appears once more as a coordinator and parent figure for the young heroes, [[Totally Spies!|Sam, Alex, and Clover]] do not return but have made at least one appearance.

While ''Totally Spies'' drew inspiration from [[Shoujo]] manga, ''The Amazing Spiez'' is also inspired by western [[Comic Books]].

* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Most of the same college-aged males who perved over ''[[Totally Spies!]]'' ''hate'' this show, but preteen girls are lapping it up. Their favorite is almost unanimously [[Nerds Are Sexy|Marc]].
* [[Evil Brit]]: Jerry's sister Sherry.
