Amazon Cancels ‘The Tick’ After Two Seasons

All good things must come to an end.

Amazon has canceled The Tick after two seasons, series creator Ben Edlund made the announcement on twitter, he said:

I’m sorry to say Amazon has chosen not to proceed with [‘The Tick’]. I’m not sorry to say I love this show, its cast, its story, and its message. Destiny demands that my compatriots and I now seek a new home for this series.

The series centered on the often quite clueless but very powerful Tick, played by Peter Serefinowicz. With Newman’s Arthur (Griffin Newman) as the Tick’s often unwilling sidekick, the show took place in a world where superheroes are an everyday occurrence but real super villains are thought to be the stuff of legend -until The Terror (played by Jackie Earle Haley) who had been long thought dead – showed up.
