Gotta believe we'll see something from Punisher in the TV world at some point in the next couple years. Can't see Marvel just sitting on having him back and not using him for something.

A Spider-Man show would be hard to do because his powers are so fantastic, but I would love a Spider-Man Netflix series that's just one long origin. Like Daredevil -- he's not the full-fledged Daredevil yet, the whole season is an origin story.

You could set up Peter without powers. Have us spend a little more time with Uncle Ben than we would get to in a movie. See Peter's normal life. And after you get to the spider bite, you could show Peter dealing with his new powers and learning to use them. Then you do the wrestling. Put him in the wrestler/makeshift outfit (similar to Tobey's wrestling outfit and Andrew's plain mask with leather jacket and sunglasses). Have him getting involved with small scale, street level crime -- muggers, etc. No big villains with fancy -- expensive -- powers required.

Since they're casting young, they won't have to worry about getting someone "too big" for a Netflix series.

So I would love a Spider-Man Netflix series that focuses only on his origin. He's not technically Spider-Man until the end, and that way we'll only see Spider-Man in the movies.

If the Flash can have a show, with all the superpowers, you can have a show about Peter Parker, er, 'learning to crawl,' as it were. A lot of it can be done practically and without CGI.
While I strongly doubt it will ever happen...I would be very down with this.

A one-off 13 episode season (or even just 8 like Agent Carter) released before the film. Something that enhances the experience of watching the movie but is not necessary to see before the movie.
