Is this animated or live-action? (I'm assuming the latter..)

There were 8. They could easilly fit on to one DVD, but then they couldn't charge so much, could they?

I'd rather have it on 2 discs than one. Cramming 9 22-minute-long episodes on one disc could be a bit much, especially if there are extras. 2 discs should give them a lot of room for a high bitrate, and it's not as if studios even charge more for 2-disc sets these days anyway.

I believe Disney owns the animated series. I believe Disney acquired the Saban catalogue when they bought Fox Family and changed it to ABC Family. In any case, Columbia/Tri-Star's release of the live-action "Tick" series in no way affects any possible future release of the animated series. It's not as if one corporate entity made a "one or the other" decision. If anything, should Columbia/Tri-Star's live-action "Tick" release prove successful, Disney may just decide to release the animated version based on the live-action version's success.

Unless it's the animated series, I'll pass.

I like both shows. The animated version is better then the live-action, but Patrick Warburton is the best human-Tick.

well, not that I dont trust the information - but I dont trust the information. Do we have external confirmation yet? IGN? Digital Bits? TV shows on DVD? Anybody?

I dont want to get worked up on what may turn out to be just a date someone pulled out of the air.

I was hoping so much for the animated series. Maybe if this does well it will help get the animated series released soon.

By the way, this is the live action "Tick".

Hey, don't get defensive man. I'm just saying without citing some source of information, it's not better any better than any other random rumor - or worse. I mean would you trust me if I said "Here's a tidbit: The Empire Strikes Back this fall for sure!" Probably not - you don't know me from a hole in the ground without something to back it up.

But Mao works for this site, you don't. I'd think his posts would hold slightly more weight.

i recently watched the live action series because it came with the set of VCDs i bought of the animated series and i was pleasantly surprised with it. i watched it once on TV and i couldnt get into it but i now find it to be quite funny and i will definately pick this set up, while i continue to wish for the animated series to be released in season sets.

oh ya, SPOOOON!

I must be in the minority. I loved the live action show and am looking forward to this set.

I can't believe this garnered more votes than "Action."

Don't get me wrong, I really like live-action Tick, but Action was genius.

cultshock, I am gladly a member of your minority. Nothing against the animated series, it's just the humor of the live action series is really, really good. This has got to be my most favorite short lives series since Police Squad!

I was really hoping for both "Action" (would looooooooooooove to see it uncensored) and "Parker Lewis Can't Lose" - which was like a Ferris Bueller's Day Off television show that was better than the Ferris Bueller's Day Off television show.

There are 9.

Air Date Order

1. Pilot
2. The Funeral
3. Couples
4. The License
5. Arthur Needs Space (a.k.a. Arthur Needs His Space)
6. The Big Leagues
7. The Tick Vs. Justice
8. Arthur, Interrupted

UNAIRED The Terror

Production Order

100 Pilot
101 The Terror
102 Arthur, Interrupted
103 The License
104 Arthur Needs Space (a.k.a. Arthur Needs His Space)
105 Couples
106 The Funeral
107 The Tick Vs. Justice
108 The Big Leagues

There are TECHNICALLY *two* different cuts of 'The Terror'. One version was meant to be shows as the 1st episode (takes place right after the PILOT). The 'unaired' version was re-cut as a 'flashback' episode to mark Tick and Authur's 1st year together.

There is also an extended/different cut of 'Arthur, Interrupted' that FOX objected to and a lot of Dave Foley was cut.

In theory, they could it as the 8 aired, the original "Terror", the re-cut "Terror", the extended "Authur, Interrupted" and outtakes, commercials, etc.. etc.. etc...

Now, why won't they do this for Greg the Bunny??
