I saw the original pilot. It didn't work, then I watched the series based on some recommendations. The first episode borrowed form the Pilot, but it was much improved. Sharper and faster paced. The Pilot - (now Episode 0), 4 out of 10. The series, so far (I'm 4 episodes in), 8 out of 10. It's worth giving a try for any tick fan. More lively than the Warburton version and much better villains. Worth a look.

Just finished season two. It's a nice continuation of the tick. The cartoon was classic and funny. Cartoons and funny sometimes go together. It was a favorite of mine on Saturday morning TV. The first TV series - the entire half season of it, well, they tried but I didn't feel like it worked. Some silly than funny, not as good as the Cartoon.

This Amazon version is a little darker, a little more vivid and sharp but the characters are the same. Less humor, more plot but it's fast paced and it's an entertaining watch. Yes, it's not as funny and yes, it's not classic tick, but I think the story telling adds more than what's lost. Fun show. Some fun tributes to the original. Some cool twists. I'm sorry there won't be a season 3. Season 1 - 8 stars. Season 2 - 9. They did this one right.
