It was a good revival of the series. I hope to see more. Cheers.
Alexander White
I don't have a twitter, and I used a free trial of Prime to watch each season. Sorry. Good show though.
Eli Perry
I haven't actually watched this but I've only heard great things on Yea Forums and I love the animated series. I think I'll binge it tomorrow. I hope everything works out man.
I'll help, but I want to see Chairface god damn it.
Brayden Gutierrez
If this is fake, I don't know what game you're playing, but I'm intrigued.
If this is real, for the love of all that is still pure in this world stop! Posting here can be a boon to you, but it can also be like sticking your dick in a hornet's nest and shaking it side to side. Have you learned nothing from the THQ Nordic insolent?!
Andrew Watson
If what you're saying is true, that's impressive. I sadly haven't watched your show (yet) since I don't have Amazon prime.
Best show. The only thing worth watching on Amazon Prime.
William Williams
It's real
he also posted to reddit and joined a fan made discord. The actor who played Arthur went on a bunch of random podcasts without Amazon sending him. The actors love this show and they're trying to support it all in their own time because Amazon is barely promoting it.
Aaron Thomas
This is not fake. I know that It's risky to post this kind of thing on here, but I'm trying my best to gather support for our show.
And yeah I want Chairface too.
Andrew Powell
Sign up for a trial, watch the show, rate it highly.
Julian Myers
Bump
David Cook
Feel free to ask me questions. I'll do my best to answer as many as I can before I go to sleep. I'm also going to post in the TV section when I can.
Benjamin Price
I was afraid of that.
I don't want to see them burned by posting on 4channel, but I guess it could be worse.
Colton Reed
Why isn't this pinned?
Colton Rogers
Joshua, what was the most fun you had on set
Jonathan Morris
Joshua when you go to Yea Forums ignore any posts that have the word "Sneed" in them Trust me
Brayden Jackson
You didn't watch the old Warburton live action Tick? Not to take away anything from this new adaption, but that has some great moments. "His autobiography didn't say anything about him being dead".
Jackson Walker
>I'm also going to post in the TV section when I can. Just a piece of advice, Yea Forums isn't that bad but Yea Forums can be pretty awful at times, so just be warned. Also, will we see some of the more zany Tick villains like Chairface? Or have the Tick finally go at the speed of lint?
Jeremiah Bell
The most fun I had on set S1 was the fight I had with Overkill. Scott and I did the whole fight ourselves and it was crazy fun. It was cut down for time which makes me sad.
S2 has to be my first scene in ep 2. We shot the chair bit a ton of different ways, and I am happy with how it turned out.
Joseph Jenkins
i hope you guys get another season man, give my regards to griffin
Nathan Morgan
Is this show accessible to newcomers? I wasn't even born when the cartoon aired.
Dylan Parker
I feel bad cause i know everyone worked hard on this show but this show is not as good as it could be. I’ll just wait till another tick cartoon comes along. Amazon should hire the guys who make Venture Bros to make a 2D Tick cartoon. They used to work on the tick and they are super good at making parody characters. Please tell amazon this
Nathan Walker
Darn it Frank threw hands and we missed it?? I wish they'd release more deleted stuff.
What do you imagine Frank's relationship to Ramses was like? Best buds? Mentor? Lover?
Jeremiah Jones
I hope The Tick can pull an Expanse and get renewed.
Joseph Martin
Hey Joshua, what kind of prep did you do for the role? Did you go through the Tick tv show or was it more instruction on the part of the writers and director?
Cameron Powell
Mr. Schubart, to directly reply to someone, click on their post number.
Mason Gray
I watched the tick on reruns in the 2000’s and i loved it. The cartoon is better than this show. This show remakes everything from scratch so its not required viewing.
Isaiah Gutierrez
I mean I don’t have Amazon Prime, but as soon as it came out on iTunes I bought the first season, it’s a fucking great series
Cameron Thomas
Yes!
Chase Gonzalez
Thanks for that advice
Eli Reyes
Did the firing of Joe Lewis make things awkward on set? According to this
Yara Martinez got the role of Lint thanks to Lewis reworking the character for her.
Jason Anderson
Yeah for sure. It is it's own thing, while still living in the world of the old stuff.
Camden Ward
Im being serious. Watch The Venture Bros season 6 in particular. It becomes a show about new york city and its many comical parody super heroes and villains. This show has masterful style, acting, cinematography, and direction. Please tell amazon to make something like that for the Tick
William Rogers
I didn't know it was on iTunes, see? They never advertise it properly!
Leo Morris
Sweet, it's always nice to see actors posting here. What do you do to get in the 'acting mood' for The Tick? Any reference you go off of?
Thomas Stewart
Alright then. I'll scrounge up some pennies and watch it then.
haha It's there in season 1 just really shortened. It's just Frank getting his ass beat in the current edit.
As for the Ramses relationship. They were really close. Like a mentor/father figure.
Ryder Hernandez
You're talking about a show made by virtually the same people as the tick...
Ethan Myers
Well to be honest I've been a life long fan of The Tick. I've watched the cartoon, read the comics, and the original live action. Ben was on set and writing the shows.
Frank is an original character that was pretty much written for me as the show went along. So I just tried to stay as honest as I could to the vision of the current show, while still understanding where the show came from.
Ryder Johnson
Heres a trailer for the venture bros season 6 to better understand my point. This show is just so funny and clever and snappy and well paced. The tick is perfect for something like this. The amazon show is just so dry. It was hard not to fall asleep watching the whole first season. youtu.be/ctlC0x2eeww
Kayden Barnes
Thanks this is my first time using Yea Forums.
Lucas Perry
Please fuck off
Asher Carter
No not really. We briefly talked about it in the beginning of S2, but I'm gonna be totally honest with you here.
Yara is fucking amazing. Like hands down an incredible person and a wonderful talent. I've never working with anyone more giving and in the moment.
I know the media likes to imply shit for their narrative purposes, but Yara got that shit, got upgraded to a series reg based on her talent and merit.
Ethan Phillips
Yeah it was a shock, and As soon as I saw it I purchased it, really hoping for a full on Blu-ray release with Deleted scenes and commentary
Carson Jenkins
I've watched all of the Venture Bros. Love that show.
It's got a ton of the same people behind it as this new Tick.
Yeah I didn't get how they ignored her awesome performance and made her sound like she wouldn't have got the part otherwise or something.
Luis James
Alright i hate to be the bringer of bad news. I just want the tick to actually live on instead of the tick just having a couple of short lived shows that are as stiff as dry wall. Im sorry for being the only tick fan who objects to this show. Im not saying im a comedy or writing expert but this show was like watching paint dry im sorry if that offends anyone. Have fun getting canceled again
Gavin Jackson
That's good. No offense meant to Yara, she definitely kills it.
Ryder Perez
Did you guys actually know you were getting a second season while filming the first? Seems like there was an intentional cliffhanger there
Leo Wilson
I already told you to fuck off, we get it, you don't like it. We do. Go away now. Make a Venture bros thread.
Henry Hill
No we didn't. We ended shooting and waited to get renewed, much like now, only this time we left the end of S2 with a tie in for S3
Isaac Anderson
I mean, not the person your responding to, but it sounds like you have bad taste.
Also this series has a slow burn into the insanity that is Superheroes and plays with that very well. It’s a really good parody of modern Cape shows
William Bennett
Can you do me a favor and punch the writers for copping out with Chairface?
>Introduce villain called the Duke >Keep mentioning that his head was chopped off, and was a master of genetics >Has an obsession with furniture
>Nah jk it's the scientist
I like the show but that almost ruined season 2 for me. They better rectify with some Chairface soon.
Ian Ross
Yeah you were right. They are just straight up trolling me right now. lol
Jordan Lee
Honestly didn't even know there was another Tick show after the Warburton one. I'll give it a watch.
Chase Mitchell
I think the show works on its own, but for the full experience I would start with animated, then Warbuton's show, then this one, and read at least a few issues of the comic. You'll get an even better experience.
Gavin Morgan
>Chairface Adding to this, Red Scare and Barry. In fact, bring Patrick Warburton on and have him play Barry. I know he has some producer credits so he'd probably be into it.
Angel Gutierrez
Yea Forums will also from time to time have people make threads similar to this claiming they work at Warner Bros and answer questions. So do not be too surprised if they do not believe anything for a while.
Ian Thomas
lol no the writers are amazing!
I wan't Chairface as well. We will just have to see how we get there.
David Wilson
I follow the official Twitter already. Season two was really good, by the way. I hope you guys get renewed, because I'm enjoying the series so far.
Nathan Powell
Barry could be a perfect character for the show. Make him the Snyder version of a superhero, where he's like the Tick but unnecessarily violent and with twisted morals.
Josiah Torres
Not only a cocktease, but a waste of John Hodgman honestly. Would've been a fine Chairface.
Alexander Ward
Edlund said he wants to get Chairface in the show but at least we got Throkkorzog confirmed so that's something
Lucas Morgan
Okay, I went to a QnA little over a year ago where Griffin Newman said he had a lot of problems with the dogs that played Midnight. And was terrified of one. But he didn't want to elaborate on that at all.
What happened there?
Jace Baker
Poor Josh made the same thread on Yea Forums and it's going exactly as you'd expect. Yea Forums is full of nothing but shitposters. Yea Forums is one of the few nice boards.
Brandon Edwards
Love the show. I have Prime and will send them a message and rate it. Ask for Dinosaur Neil please. Also if you ever see Griffin Newman tell him his opinions about Doom/The FF are 100% correct.
Kevin Ramirez
The Duke was literally the perfect way. There's no way they did that not knowing everyone assumed they set up Chairface.
But before I sound like a retractor I'm a big Tick fan, and your guys' show has been a very good installment. The Tick has always been about touching on certain angles in the superhero fiction, and this show does a good job covering the new ground that has come from the recent trends. You all are great on the show, and the new Tick actor is definitely doing great following up Warburton.
Gavin Phillips
I already, rated it highly after I watch it a while back, been a fan for a while. I'll tweet about it and send the "For your consideration" message. I really hope it helps!
Brandon Wilson
Thanks!
Lincoln Fisher
I'm ashamed at my lack of Tick knowledge and having to be told that was an established character. Still excited for what they'll do with him though.
Tyler Long
Griffin didn't, Scott the guy playing Overkill. The dogs wanted to kill him
Brandon Perez
Yea Forums can be a pretty terrible board, I'm not gonna lie to you. And a lot of people probably won't believe you if you post there. But if you want to, give it a shot anyway. Good luck to you, man. Amazon really don't know how to promote their shows, do they? A shame, because I can tell this show is made with a lot of love by you guys.
Hudson Morgan
hey he said he'd answer questions
Logan Peterson
is Ben nice in real life
Easton Brooks
Making a Q&A on Yea Forums? pretty ballsy if i'm honest with you buddy
Joshua Baker
>the new Tick actor is definitely doing great following up Warburton. This. One of the biggest challenges in getting people to try this show out is people who are too hung up on Warburton not being the Tick or thinking that no one can play him better. I think Peter's doing a great job of making the character his own, while staying true to what makes the Tick tick.
Props to you all, of course!
Anthony Harris
Yeah its not going well over there.Ben is amazing!
Jacob Watson
It's not like it's the first time this happened.
Charles Fisher
What's the weirdest thing you've heard Edlund say?
Charles White
I heard the biggest challenge was that there just are not that many people in the world who can actually play the tick. Needs to be a mix of very tall, built, comedic, and can run through his insane monologues and still look generally confused at everything while he does it.
Dylan Ward
Been a fan of every incarnation solid show will give it the support that I can.
Been such a nice show to watch that I've been punching up a spec script to use as a writers submission.
Will boost as much as I can on the twitter.
Great to see good Villain and Hench writing.
Leo White
Tick wishlist
>Chariface Chippendale >Dinosaur Neil >Barry >The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight >Deadly Bulb >Sewer Urchin
Adam Foster
Is there a studio reason they changed the Tick costumes several times in the show? Budget, or camera issues, something?
Alexander Campbell
I like that Arthur gets more into the hero business in this adaption. Maybe it's been a while, but I remember his bumbling reluctance being a bit too singular, and encompassing the entire character in other versions. In this he plans, has relevant hero knowledge and helps establish those connections for Tick, gets to have a one on one fight. They even go an extra few steps further by getting his entire family involved in the action. Though that could be a bit much, if there are more episodes. I'd have to see where they go with it.
Grayson Butler
Gotta do what I can. Uh. It's not weird it's just Ben. If that makes sense. He's a genius so you just go along for the ride. Thanks. I feel the same. The writing is so good.
Julian Reed
Didn't Shatner post here at one point?
Jackson Barnes
I think we got the giant guy instead of Dinosaur Neil, and the Break room sort of works for the Superhero club so doubtful there will be a Midnight Bomber episode.
Yeah, Yea Forums is easily one of the worst boards, but if you really want them to lose their shit you could try bane posting. Not sure if other anons would recommend it though.
As a follow up, can you list some of your favorite superhero movies like Shazam and what not?
Jayden Price
Yea we get drop ins on occasion. Used to have a good run of industry folks. Still do I'd wager but they keep it anonymous.
Isaiah Clark
Are the mods gonna sticky this?
Matthew Murphy
Vampires and Ticks both suck blood so I have to ask, are you looking forward to Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines 2?
Who knows if he's even here anymore, he didn't use a tripcode.
Hudson Hall
Go back to Yea Forums
Ryder Hernandez
If some Yea Forums mod does not think he's a larper and bans him or something
Brayden Flores
Mods, can you sticky this?
Rolling in fresh baked bread
Joseph Rodriguez
>Amazon has a Tick show That's the second show from Amazon I'll be watching. I'll have to tell my dad, he was the one who was big on the Tick cartoon. Hope you get renewed, Frank!
Alexander Myers
>savethetick Why the fuck isn't it doing well?
William Allen
>he didn't use a tripcode. That's not gonna end well, I'm already seeing the ramifications on Yea Forums
Julian Gutierrez
Tick looked flirty in that scene
Logan Ramirez
Still its something that's worth promoting. Given that only this and Doom Patrol are carrying really good comic books shows right now.
Last I heard Doom Patrol was in danger due to AT&T wanting to assume more control and not have the DC streaming service as its own thing.
Hope the whole New York Amazon HQ fallout doesn't end things
Eli Thompson
it's getting real on Yea Forums right now so
Luis Harris
He can post on twitter if he uses a code or not, so that at least makes that easy.
Benjamin Gonzalez
New CEO. also no one watches Prime and they barely advertised season 2.
Jace Turner
He's posting on Yea Forums right now. It's actually kind of funny, dude just said he'd fuck the Shad edit of live action Sonic
Oliver Smith
As much as I loved The Tick as a kid, I can't believe I forgot Amazon has a revival. I legitimately hope it gets renewed, even if the show ends up being "meh" to me, The Tick deserves more success. The lovable blue retard.
Gavin Jenkins
Pretty sure that's one of the larpers
Levi Brooks
The Tick is very niche comic stuff not super visible like the other hero properties.
And Amazon doesn't handle Prime very well anyway. Which complicates things.
Chase Rodriguez
This is the only post stood out to me because it's pleb central. Bosch is amazing.
Adam Jones
what if we just spam Jeff Bezos' twitter account with Tick memes?
Chase Bell
God Yea Forums is literally söy central. Everyone pretending to care about some side character in a failing amazon show.
You're right, just did a mass response. Josh, in case you come back here, I'm posting this for your sake
>How do I use a "tripcode"? >Tripcodes can help verify a user's identity to others, and are a type of pseudo-registration. To use a normal tripcode, place a hash mark ("#") followed by a word or short phrase after what you've entered into the [Name] field (ex. "User#password"). Upon submission, the server will generate the hash unique to that particular word or phrase. The previous example would display "User !ozOtJW9BFA" after being posted.
Henry Jenkins
Didn't think rating would do anything, but I'll be sure to do that. Also, gotta say that watching this version of the Tick has been one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had watching a superhero show in a while.
Ayden Miller
Thanks
Joshua Torres
They most likely never believed it was him on Yea Forums. They do get a lot of threads from LARPers that they just don't believe in anything anymore
Jason Reed
>Wanting attention this hard
Does mom not give you enough?
Justin Collins
Hey of all people shouldn't a real actor be using a tripcode? Somebody teach him how to make one.
Schubert, a tripcode would be like creating a screen name so people would know it's you and not a rando jackass posting using your name.
Also ignore assholes here. Like, don't respond at all.
Okay tripcode up just figuring this whole thing out. It's on twitter now.
Justin Cooper
You also should post a timestamp in this thread >(a "timestamp" being a picture you take of yourself holding up a piece of paper with the current time/date written on it and a message saying something along the lines of 'hello Yea Forums this is Joshua Shubart' to prove you are actually here).
There are just the typical requirements to be take seriously on this site.
Nolan King
Hey Josh, I haven't seen your show yet but I'll be sure to check it out tomorrow afternoon. You seem like a nice guy and I hope the show is good, and that Amazon gives you another season and stuff
It's really cool that you're doing this, and I want to wish you good luck and good health.
Once they knew it was really him they got worse, but as soon as he left someone took his screen name and started impersonating him
Jose Murphy
Put # or better ## after whatever in the Name field e.g. Anonymous##moot
moot is like your password, use whatever
Joseph Green
For what it's worth I've been considering watching the Tick, bit just haven't gotten to it. With a real dude risking this idiot sites exaggerated reputation, I'll knock a few episodes out by the weekend.
Wyatt Morgan
They're still pretending to impersonate him
James Johnson
Yeah, he used to come here sometimes, maybe still does. Andrew WK did a Q and A here too. There's probably all sorts who have come here out of curiosity, and maybe even posted on user.
>you could be posting with Shatner right now
Elijah Moore
He did, he figured it out.
Isaiah Ward
Yea Forums was never good, but man has it gotten bad.
Anthony Jones
>all of these faggots treating Yea Forums like leddit
You have to go back.
Josh my dude, we ain't your personal army, please don't come here and assume you can mobilize us like a fucking social media platform, we don't exist for you media stooges to manipulate and weaponize, it's anonymous for a reason.
James Nelson
imma do it. just to spite this faggot and letting him know he can't do anything but cry.
James Edwards
>le edgy Yea Forums it's one thread, relax, i doubt you're anal about other content on the board
David Bennett
Were you a fan of the tick comics before you got the role on the show? And what do you think of it now?
Joseph Gutierrez
I'd rather have an actor from a Yea Forums property come by and bumble his way into learning board culture than see sneedshit for the 1000th time in a row.
Gavin Phillips
Dude isn't asking for, or doing anything nuts. Calm down. Not everything should be an epic user sneaky mask meme moment.
Brody Phillips
>Yea Forums related creator comes to talk his show >you tell him to fuck off For what purpose?
Camden Lewis
You know, being on Yea Forums doesn't mean a group of people can't mutually like something or want to see something good happen. We're not a "personal army", but as individuals we can say "fuck that, let's try to get something we like to keep going".
Yeah, why have a thread about a comic book related show when we can whine about the womens ruining comics for the umpteenth time?
Benjamin Sanchez
Oh hey, an immigrant from the Yea Forums thread. How's it going?
Connor Butler
Answered my dude.
Jonathan Collins
He's just looking to let people know. If you don't like the show don't help. It's not that deep
Michael Gonzalez
This has to do objectively with the things that differentiate us as a community and site from social media sites that exist to be pandered to and led in support of projects that make people money. I don't want Yea Forums to be a landing place for media industry shills and neither should anyone who likes it here.
Zachary Hernandez
Ignoring the shitposting, I have never interacted with a Tick property. What's your show like and why should I watch it?
Isaiah Brown
I am a big fan of the comics. My fav was the animated series, but that might be because It was a big part of my life growing up.
I love this version. I feel like it sits well in the modern landscape that we have today.
I may be a though biased because I'm on the show, but I really do love it.
Hudson Davis
the only way Yea Forums will become this terrifying nightmare of yours is with substantial changes from Hiro. An actor publicly coming to Yea Forums will not be the death of the site's culture. Relax.
Isaac Gutierrez
This board so goddamn pozzed, why aren't you niggers on reddit
Nolan Allen
have you ever had an idea for an episode, or some other kind of writing idea, and you're like "oh I should bring this to the writers"
Joshua Morris
Are there plans in the work to give LGBTQ and PoC better representation on this mostly straight average white guy show?
Daniel Bennett
Shut the fuck up. You can still be epic user shitposter king here, can't you? Nothing is being sanitized because an actor is chatting here.
Hell, it's the real reason we have tripcodes.
Elijah Campbell
Go back to Yea Forums and or Jr high
Jordan Smith
The Tick is an IP that is truly trying to poke fun at other super hero IP's. It's a breath of fresh air in a landscape that is wildly saturated at the moment.
Not only that but it promotes love, friendship, positive male interactions, and talks about metal health in a real way.
It's also a shit ton of fun.
Eli Brown
user, this is part of why 4channel exists
Chase Thompson
>he doesn't know
Noah Lewis
There are plenty of sites with more traffic that are designed to utilize their user base as a publicity commodity for the use of commercial enterprises whether officially or otherwise. This ain't that, chief, it's just another astroturf on a chan hurting from them.
Daniel Adams
Lieber, Filyaw and Sugar were posting here long before you, filthy /pol/ secondary. AMAs are shit and the stupid Tick show is horrible cheap garbage, but drop this "us" shit when you're clearly a post 2012 tourist.
Jacob Cruz
Maybe we are.
Wwwwwooooopooo spooky.
Levi Price
Can you imagine being this much of a whiny faggot
Elijah Howard
>Overkill >Sage >Ms. Lint >Dangerboat
Brayden Hill

Luis Rivera
Go have a nap now.
Jeremiah Rogers
Is Valorie Curry a nice person? Does she smell nice?
Also have you played DMC5 yet? It's a good game you should play it if you like action games.
No he isn't answering questions on Yea Forums. I wanna know!
Isaiah Myers
Fuck off you bitter cunt. Go get some fucking friends instead of stewing away your day in a fucking trailer in the middle of nowhere.
Sebastian Foster
I've been here on and off since 2004 but not much on Yea Forums since the comics community developed terminal cancer and this board developed an umbilical cord to Reddit.
Nobody gives a shit about literally who self inserting webcomic artists, this is an industry shill from a major streaming service project who is just trying to drum up views for his contrived remake series.
Aiden Gray
Yeah, I get what you mean, man. How he's doing it is kinda against what's allowed here, but I'm conflicted since I'm genuinely concerned about a show I really like. To his credit, this is more from Josh's ignorance than anything else.
