A superhero comedy based on Edlund’s long-running comic, The Tick stars Peter Serafinowicz, Griffin Newman, Valorie Curry, Brendan Hines, Yara Martinez, Scott Speiser, and Jackie Earle Haley. The story unfolds in place in a world where superheroes have been real for many many years and follows a nervous accountant, Arthur Everest (Newman), and a strange (sometimes clueless) blue superhero named The Tick (Serafinowicz). Together, they begin an adventure that’s filled with crazy super villains, dangerous vigilantes, and freakish superheroes.
The pilot of The Tick was released in August 2016 and the 11 additional episodes of the first season were released in two batches, in August 2017 and February 2018. The 10 episodes of season two were unveiled on April 5th of this year.
Edlund revealed that The Tick had been cancelled by Amazon via a Twitter post:
I'm sorry to say Amazon has chosen not to proceed with @TheTickTV I'm not sorry to say I love this show, its cast, its story, and its message. Destiny demands that my compatriots and I now seek a new home for this series.

Yes we need a Tick season 3!
I need another season!!!! Just tell me which network I need to go to!!!
Season 3 a must.
Say it ain’t so, chum!
Fingers crossed it gets picked up elsewhere. It’s so good!
Sorry folks. It’s my bad. I loved the show, so it was bound to get cancelled. Happens to every show I get attached to.
I did not think I would like the Tick but after hearing good things, I decided to watch it for 10 minutes and of course I got completely hooked. I love the acting, the storylines, the characters and the humor. It’s simply a delight to watch and one of the few shows worth watching more than once. I will definitely subscribe to anyone that picks up Season 3.
I freaking love this show! Why do you all the best shows get canceled? Please please please let the show find another home!
I freaking LOVE The Tick! Please let I think find another home. All the good shows get cancelled.
