The
Tick live action was cancelled. Its' 8 episodes ran from November
8, 2001 to January 24, 2002 (though I've been told it is currently
(May 2003) running in Australia).
In all, I
thought Live Tick was interesting and pretty funny, though not
as good as the cartoon. All of the episodes had a few moments
of true hilarity, and the new characters Batmanuel
and Captain Liberty
were very good. Arthur was
about the same as always; in many cases he was the center of the
story as Tick is simply Tick
and he's not prone to many problems that make for good plots.
Unfortunately, the Tick himself fared poorly in this iteration,
becoming overly stupid and simple.
The show was crippled from the start with poor
support from Fox, though, and low budgets meant few villains
and no combat scenes. I really wish that the series had some more
time to evolve; I felt that even with its shortcomings it could
have developed into something great.
