Just like the cartoon itself, it pokes fun with the superhero genre while still being an amazingly creative thing of it's own. I feel like it walked so other stuff being made into comics at the time like The Boys and Marc Miller kind of comics could run today
After three seasons, The Tick's final episode aired November 24, 1996 and was rerun from April 19 until April 26, 1997, although the Christmas episode "The Tick Loves Santa!" was repeated on December 25, 1997. The following year, in 1997, FOX began talks with Sunbow Entertainment about producing a prime time Tick special, and the possibility still exists that Fox Kids will renew the half-hour show for another season, but this never came to fruition. Comedy Central syndicated The Tick during this time from September 22, 1996 to December 27, 1999 on Sunday Evenings at 7:00pm and 11:00pm, Wednesday Nights at 9:00pm and 3:00am and Saturdays at 11:00pm, and subsequently helped make it a cult hit with adults.
When I found out about the live action remake on Amazon Prime I remembered I used to watch this show so much when I was a kid, I couldn't remember the villains or the stories, but those 2 superheroes, they unforgettable.
I'm an 82s baby as well. I miss all the old toons like , thundercats,dungeons and dragons, johnny quest, the autobots ,carebears , the wuzzles and paw paw bears lol. We had so many awesome toons back in the day with the catchiest theme songs lol I still know the gummie bears theme song lol.
@@Johnlindsey289 yes I do lol loved those too. Cartoons seem to really suck nowadays. Atleast the older ones taught us lessons in a way that we never even knew we were being taught , heman was good for that. Bought a couple DVDs I found so my girls could see them plus some old looney toons and thundercats.
@@Victoria-sl7ky There is some i enjoy these days like Regular Show (love the 80s and 90s nostalgia with the references and music) Avatar, the CGI Nicktoon NInja Turtles, Gravity Falls, Transformers prime, My Little Pony FIM (i was never a MLP fan before until now and it does teach lessons too), Thundercats 2011, Animaniacs reboot, GI Joe Resolute, Young Justice, Green Eggs and Ham etc. Even adult ones i enjoy like Primal, Undone, Bojack Horseman, Invincible, Disenchanted, etc. which all remind me of the 90s adult animations like Duckman, classic Simpsons (before it became a zombie starting with season 12 to now), Futurama, King of the Hill, The Maxx, The Head, Dr Katz, MTV's Liquid TV, Spawn, Cowboy Bebop etc.
I remember this 1990s cartoon. I used to watch it when I was a kid. It was shown on the TCC (The Children's Channel), BBC as a part of their children's block CBBC and RTÉ 2 in the 1990s. I always loved that superhero cartoon.
I've always loved Saturday morning and weekday cartoons when I went to school rather than learn but I didn't want to he addicted to more and more new cartoons forever if there's gonna be maturity one day eventually
I remember loving this show as a kid in the late 90s but I don't remember anything I watched. Even this intro seems new to me. I'm sure watching a few episodes will jog my memory.

Fun fact that will blow your mind: The Tick was written & overall made by the same guys that...wait for it...MADE THE VENTURE BROTHERS!!!! HOW GREAT IS THIS?!
I don't think I ever came across this show as a kid, yet there's something familiar about it. I keep thinking of ice cream bars though. Was Tick an ice cream character at some point?
@@alchemistofsteel8099 I get it now lol (especially since I used headphones to listen this time), I think there was another person on here saying the same thing, and it just sounded so funny to me. I do remember how generally tinny its sound was.
![Thundercats opening [HD]](/img/n.gif)
The Tick's speeches are like sandwiches.
Hammy and cheesy, but satisfying at the same time.
Just like the cartoon itself, it pokes fun with the superhero genre while still being an amazingly creative thing of it's own. I feel like it walked so other stuff being made into comics at the time like The Boys and Marc Miller kind of comics could run today
@@nickirmen6671yes exactly
It was great being a kid in the 90's!
2000s too!
Word
Hell, I had 2 kids in the 90s and this was about as good as it got.
bring the show the tick back on tv
I was an adult and loved this shit
The way they synced up Mister Mental yelling in The Tick's ear with the song's "Aaaaaaaaah!" is Chef Kiss worthy!
Agreed! It cracks me up every time!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tick: "I've been janitor to the apocalypse and it's a comin this way." 😂Still cracks me up. Loved this show as a kid.
The Tick was the original One Punch Man. Lol
Underrated cartoon man. Should have lasted longer
Same with the HBO Spawn one.
Heard it was cancelled because the creator was taking time to make the episodes good and the studio just wanted to churn them out.
@@cledgefenrir5681 Sounds like vintage Fox Kids.
@@cledgefenrir5681 same thing happen to the boondocks
Way ahead of its time! The show was very adult oriented. It should have aired in Comedy Central.
It did show on comedy central around it's final season.
It did in the late 90s and early 2000s reruns aired on Comedy Central
I think Cartoon Network should put it in Adult Swim.
I'm convinced Fox just took three jazz scatters off the street, showed them the opening sequence and the background music, and said 'Go.'
Dub dwee dah dub dub dwee dah

You really done your homework I'm impressed. Not many know it was on comedy central.
@@slanetroyard92 same with duckman
@@kaiser1963 both were great shows.

Loved watching this on Fox kids. God I miss the 90s at times. So many great cartoons back then.
This show was hysterical. Great memories.
The Tick was one of my favorites as a kid.. Im still hooked on Talespin to this day.
When I found out about the live action remake on Amazon Prime I remembered I used to watch this show so much when I was a kid, I couldn't remember the villains or the stories, but those 2 superheroes, they unforgettable.
This is better than the whole marvel and dc universe.
I always loved watching this with my dad, he loves this shows.
Same dude. I even remember my dad having an old tick dart board
It's amazing how shows from the 90's had the catchiest theme tunes. I should know, because I was born in that decade (January 25, 1995 to be exact).☮
Born 1982 and i loved this show since i was 12 and dug the comics too

This was stuck in my head all day! I own a copy of season one, thankfully...
If you want to see the rest it's on Hulu
0:38 this part of the song just sounds so…perfect.
That part literally was playing in my head and that why i looked this video up in the first place lol
DAAAHHH!
Oh, that's my favourite part of the theme, too! 😁
I was so glad I found this on Hulu. The writers of this show is legendary.
Jameson: How do you know about stuff like this?
Spider-Man: Hey, who do I look like, the Tick?
If Edgar wright did a Tick movie it would be incredible
I think Tim Miller (the guy who directed Deadpool) would be a better choice.
+sparkshark789 he'd be a good choice but I feel like Edgar wright has a bit more craziness for this
Man. It was AWESOME to be a kid in the 90s. I was born in '87
man i miss watching this cartoon as kid!.
I'll be interviewing The Tick himself, Townsend Coleman THIS SUNDAY: Twitch.TV/PhilMachi
Such a grand I finally watch it all recently
90's really was the golden Era ❤
There is only one word that can do this intro right...
"SPOOOOOON!"
You'll never remember the lyrics, "Sokin no do da", but you'll remember the theme.
SPOON!!!
I remember this 1990s cartoon. I used to watch it when I was a kid. It was shown on the TCC (The Children's Channel), BBC as a part of their children's block CBBC and RTÉ 2 in the 1990s.

I've always loved Saturday morning and weekday cartoons when I went to school rather than learn but I didn't want to he addicted to more and more new cartoons forever if there's gonna be maturity one day eventually
My dads best friend created the tick
Still my favorite
"He has super-strength, nigh-invulnerability, and a teeny-tiny brain!"
~Thrakkorzogg
Such an awesome and underrated show
If they ever remade this series in animated form...I would love to see George Lowe voice The Tick
The tick is so funny I hope they bring him back.
American one punch man series😂
Popeye actually beat the Tick to the punch
@@NashTheBlade Yeah right. :P
He's much more like Bobobo, he's even a big guy and confuses the fuck out of his enemies.
I remember loving this show as a kid in the late 90s but I don't remember anything I watched. Even this intro seems new to me. I'm sure watching a few episodes will jog my memory.

I loved this show as a kid
This whole show feels like a fever dream but it actually happened 🤣
This was one of my favorites as a kid it was satire of popular superheroes I remember it came on Fox Kids then it moved to Comedy Central
Smells like Saturday morning
hahaha probably the most wicked superhero ever :)) xD
Ah back when this comment was made everything was better
I'm imagining this as a live action movie trilogy. And no, it will NOT be directed by Michael Bay. I want Tim Miller (the guy who directed Deadpool).
CaptainChameleon I think it would be better as an animated movie.
It have a live action series now on Amazon Prime Video :D
Y'all never watch the old sitcom?
Well its on Amazon but its really good
I want to see Patrick Warburton play the Tick again
When I was a kid, I thought Die Fledermaus was called "Deflater Mouse". XD
The Tick is a true, he wakes up earlier than I do.
SPOOOOON!
I'll be interviewing The Tick himself, Townsend Coleman THIS SUNDAY: Twitch.TV/PhilMachi
Best comment! Made me laugh
Two words, Tick: Chick....Magnet!
0:37 BAAAAAH!!
0:39 WHOOOOAAAAA
I Love The Tick💪! ☺️❤️💯🇩🇰
He was so funny. I couldn't stop lauhging. And what'wierder? I was reading the comic!
This song gonna get stuck inside your head
Yes I remember watching this on tv when I was just 7 years old.
And the thing is, I was born in '91.
Hahaha I love this show 🤣
This, Freakazoid, and Earthworm Jim were the funniest, most insane toons!
Yeah but not in 2020
I love this cartoon so much 😂😂😂
Good old days...
I never gave this show a chance as a kid. After seeing it when I got older I realized what a fool I was for doing that.
Aww I saw this when I was 16 & it was funny with 2 words, action & comedy
Spoon!!!!
“You can’t fight evil with a macaroni duck!”
This was pretty much a spoof of marvel and dc characters.
We 90s kids were the best.
Hey now, let's not lord it over anyone now.
The only cartoon I know of to feature a scat intro.
I love the villains. Chairface Chippendale
0:25 T-Rex's roar from Jurassic Park?!

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Does anybody think that The Tick looks like Bananaman as he's wearing the same blue suit as him?
The Bananaman I know wheres a trenchcoat ans is an enemy in Maka-Maka LOL
@@hitkid2456 So you haven't heard of the cartoon Bananaman and him from the Dandy comic.
Ah, yes. The Tick's greatest enemy:
Mike The Evil Living Building!
Wicked bad guy's YOU FACE THE TICK😂
spoooooon
Arthur has a secret identity but "The Tick" doesn't
I watch this when I was a kid but I can't remember any episode or maybe I just watch it but don't finish it
Before All Might, there was the Tick.
THE TICK deveria se juntar com o FREAKAZOID HEHEHE 8)
The precursor for Jackson Publick & Doc Hammer's Venture Bros.
Memories
Good times good times
da dweee da da da dwee dao
Release history of The Tick:
9/19/1994-4/26/1997 Fox
1996 Comedy Central
Arthur and "The Tick" bonded together makes them bugs
He's not the hero we deserve but he's the one we got.
Fun fact that will blow your mind: The Tick was written & overall made by the same guys that...wait for it...MADE THE VENTURE BROTHERS!!!! HOW GREAT IS THIS?!
no shit?!
Not entirely correct, but this comment is so pure omg
Anyone have the lyrics?
Eyerleth not so much lyrics as it is scatting.
*insert "That's The Joke" gif*
I don't think I ever came across this show as a kid, yet there's something familiar about it. I keep thinking of ice cream bars though. Was Tick an ice cream character at some point?

This guy along with SpaceGhost have to be the most popular super heroes ever in hero history even more so than superdick or spiderman
The live action adaption was so cool too. The og cartoon and the live action both got shut down far too soon.
I thought this was an adult swim show because the first time I saw it was at like two in the morning after squidbillies
i may have only seen 2 episodes of this show. never really got into it
It sounds like a GBA game
Say what? You probably know your GBA better than I do haha but idk if I hear it.
@@hitkid2456 I'm talking about the crustyness. GBA could get lyrical songs on it but it would be compressed beyond belief
