Did you like it Zig Forums? Did it deserve another season?

I liked it, but I felt like it was losing steam by the second season. I think Peter Sfoakwjkzavich was a great casting choice but I was kind of "meh" on the guy playing Arthur. The best part of second season was actually Overkill and Dot. Ms. Lint was pretty great, too.

I loved it, Overkill was the best

>we lose this but get Ennis' edgy trash

God I wish they'd kept making this instead of fuckin' The Boys.

Valorie Curry is pretty cute. As always.

Yes and yes. Next question.

Yep shame we didn't see what The Terror was right about.

Overkill and Dangerboat stole the show on more than one occasion. Although I will admit that 90% of Dangerboat's appeal was Alan Tudyk's acting. If they had anyone else doing it I think the gags would have fell flat.
I wish streaming services would abandon the typical network model and try other release formats. I think shows like The Tick could survive longer if they didn't have to crank out a complete "season" of 30-60 minute episodes. Something like shorter serials of 3-4 episodes released periodically. They could distribute budgeting more effectively instead of running of cash by the last few episodes and it would avoid a lot of filler/fluff.

Yes and yes. It seems like The Tick is always doomed to cancellation.

The Tick is magical, vague it seems that every adaptation of it is good. The animated show? Good. The 2000 live action show? Good. this one? A good show.

I liked it, I never got into The Boys because it looked like edgelord trash whereas this was simple and fun.

>Game of Thrones but Superheroes
>ennisfags jerk off while edgelords swallow it by the gallon
>people call me immature because I watch shit like amphibia or infinity train instead of live action

Honestly, no. The swearing was overkill and the debate as to if Arthur was just imagining everything was intensely stupid when they establish that superheroes actually exist.

Whoever wrote this should have been fired and told to take his Kickass The Movie script elsewhere.

The debate didn't even last that long. Only in the first episode and the early part of the second episode they make Arthur think Tick is a figment of his imagination but then Dot says she sees him, too.

None of the adaptations stick around long enough to wear out their welcome or submit to creative inertia. Personally I think that's the way the Tick should be, an occasional poke in the eye of the current superhero trends.

>Did you like it Zig Forums?
No. It didn't have Patrick Warburton in the lead.
>Did it deserve another season?
No, because it didn't have Patrick Warburton in the lead.

Absolutely loved it. I think it's the best live action pastiche of super heroes to come out of of late. I guess it wasn't quite cynical enough for a modern audience though.

Yes and yes, it was fantastic.

>the debate as to if Arthur was just imagining everything
That was literally just a red herring in the pilot. And it was played for laughs.

One of the best live action superhero things I've seen.

Then they alluded that the Tick might have been an energy being that he only saw as a child which led to him being a pn over medicated wreck in the first place.

Had they not dumped a ton into the LOTR boondoggle and their new programming head scrapping whole parts of the production pipeline they could have likely had a good method for that periodic release. Similar to Netflix Quarterly launching I guess.

I think some execs are still clinging to the idea that some day these shows will be syndicated on regular TV to make more so they try to keep it close to broadcast format. Also I'm sure the back end structure of production, cast contracting, etc is still heavily tied up in the TV-style way of scheduling things.

>energy being
huh?

Yea they crippled everything and are trying to limp along like an old style studio. With a lot less success and much slower.

Hell its been four years since they started the Skybound Deal.

Arthur Flashback showed his nightlight reacting and "speaking" to him as The Tick.

Also neat thing when he did that with the Terror the poster of Straight Shooter changed between cuts.

There have been several hints that Arthur is a category and The Tick is his power.

>that Arthur is a category and The Tick is his power.

What's a category? I think I missed that part.

kind of, maybe.

So The Tick was like Arthur's tulpa or something, right?

Anyone with powers.

He was his stand.
