Review of The Tick

The Tick (2001–2002)
10/10
Just too good for TV
13 April 2019
Not only did I miss this show I didnt know it existed for years until a friend told me about it.

And I thought he was talking about the cartoon series.

The Tick was just too good for TV to allow to live which is sad as every episode is comedy gold.

Patrick Warburton plays the Tick as almost an inocent child determined to stop evil wherever it raises its head, even evil vending machines will feel the wrath of THE TICK!

Despite the comedy the show often puts the spotlight on many real world issues & problems. The episode where the Tick learns of and deals with the concept of death is glorius to see:

-"Everyone dies tick"

-"Even Horses?"

As the general said as he stopped soldiers from arresting The Tick "I'm starting to like the cut of this mans gibberish"

Seriously though, they canceled this show?????????

This is why studios need at least a token number of artists amongst the bean counters that make up their executives. Yes business is a bigger word than show but if there is no art at all then there goes your business.
