The Tick

Post by Slaughterhouserock »

Amazon just released the new live action Tick series. It's only six episodes, and they run roughly 22 minutes each, so it is a quick watch. The Tick's suit was really shitty in the first episode, but they made it better after that, though I'm still not a fan of it. I went in with low expectations since the last live action series was absolute garbage, so I was pleasantly surprised when I was laughing at all the goofy shit going on. I definitely recommend watching it if you were a fan of the old cartoon.

As soon as I clicked this thread, a commercial for this series popped up. It just might be in the stars for me to check it out.

Yay! I had so little hope of this being decent. I haven't started watching it yet, but I probably will on my next day off.

Saw it. Excellent little series. Will watch season 2. Good overall fun and a few laugh out loud moments.

Just finished season 2. Good shit. It's getting a bit more wacky like the cartoon now, I just hope they eventually bring in someone from the cartoon. I was fully expecting Sewer Urchin to pop up, but no dice. There was even a moment I thought Thrakkorzog might show up, but again, I was disappointed. Still, this season was a step in the right direction.

I'd kill for a cameo by The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight, though.
