Tick Talk

Yay! The Tick lives!

I had lost track of the big blue animated crime-busting lug. The Fox Channel used to have The Tick on Saturday mornings, and it was one of the few things that would get me out of bed before noon on a Saturday. Then it went over to Comedy Central, but after 3 seasons it got cancelled.

But there it was on TV last Thursday night when I was at Rancho Relaxo. It was The Tick vs. The Breadmaster episode, a synopsis of which can be found on this Tick fan page, and which contains some classic Tick-isms, such as "Not baked goods, professorÖBaked Bads!", and "Breadmaster! Your culinary crimewave has crashed against the shores of justice!"

So it looks like the Teletoon channel (Ch.45 in Toronto) is now carrying the show at 11pm Tues-Thursday and at 8:30pm on Sundays.

Spoon!
