The Tick vs. The Terror

The Tick vs. The Terror was originally filmed with the intent to air it as episode #2, but Fox and the producers were unhappy with the original version of it and asked that it be rewritten and filmed and thus aired later in the series. This is unfortunate for three reasons; first and foremost because by being moved to the end of the run The Tick vs. The Terror was never actually aired in the United States at all. Secondly, airing The Funeral was never intended to air second in the show; and when it did many people pointed out continuity problems that arose because this episode wasn't in between. Finally, the real shame is that we'll probably never see the original version of this episode; we'll only see the toned-down version that was finally aired overseas. *sigh*

This is, in my opinion, the funniest of the Live Tick episodes. The Tick is clueless as always, but in this episode it works in a way that is absent in most of these episodes. Although Armin Shimerman wasn't tall and thin like The Terror from the comics and cartoon, his portrayal was actually pretty good; I was pleasantly surprised.

Arthur is broken!
