Oh, man, there's another Tick fan on FR besides us and I can't remember who it is. Stu, is it you? Someone last month had "Gravity is a harsh mistress" as a tagline.

I'd have to opt for Arthur as better sidekick, because Little Wooden Boy doesn't have the credit rating or the rental history Arthur does.

I would open my comic book store a half hour early on Saturday morning so that the loyal regulars and I could watch The Tick and Life With Louie, we would just sit and laugh our butts off for a cool hour. Great way to start the workday...JFK

Yep I'm a Tick fan from all the way back to the early days of the FIRST comic book series. Second day I spent with my wife (we weren't into dates per se, we just hung out together) was spent on my beanbag chair reading Tick aloud.

I hope the animated series comes out on DVD, neither TV show truly matched the beauty of the books (shhh, we're a hedge) but the did an excellent job.

Oh yea Arthur is a better sidekick for many reasons but I have to give props to Little Wooden Boy for not being a whiny little bitch. ;)

You know what show really grew on me (and I don't know whether it's started its new season) ... Dead Like Me. It is so offbeat and so original, and intelligently written and acted.
