(Amazon)

It seems Prime subscribers can’t kick The Tick. The Tick TV show has been renewed for season two on Amazon. Production is set for this year, with an eye toward as 2019 release date. Based on the Ben Edlund comics of the same name, The Tick pilot was introduced as part of Amazon’s pilot season, back in 2016, and the first half of season one debuted on August 25, 2017. The second half of the first season will be released on February 23, 2018.

An Amazon Prime Video original series, The Tick stars Peter Serafinowicz, Griffin Newman, Valorie Curry, Brendan Hines, Yara Martinez, Scott Speiser, Jackie Earle Haley, Ryan Woodle, Kahlil Ashanti, Paul Moon, John Pirkis, and Joshua Schubart. Unfolding in a world where superheroes have long existed, the story begins as a nervous, nebbishy accountant, Arthur Everest (Newman), theorizes that The City is being secretly run by a super villain known as The Terror (Haley). As Arthur searches for evidence that The Terror lives, he teams up with an oddball, blue superhero named The Tick (Serafinowicz). Together, they begin an adventure that’s filled with crazy super villains, dangerous vigilantes, and freakish superheroes.

Earlier this month, Amazon announced that The Tick was among its top series for Prime globally, as well as one of its most streamed series in the U.S.
