The Tick Premieres Tonight on FOX

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the spooooooooooooon dept.

abde writes "The Tick finally premieres this Thursday on FOX at 7:30 PM CST. Looks like Patrick Warburton finally gets to spread some creamy Justice on our toast!" Here's hoping that this show comes close to it's source materials. It's in a tough time slot, so I really hope it sticks around long enough to find a footing. Good luck to you Ben (I know you're reading!) In other TV news, Salon reviewed The buffy musical which aired on tuesday. Since my local basic cable doesn't provide UPN, I haven't seen it. I've been loving FX syndicating what is easily among my favorite shows: hot chicks, sharp humor, and monster killing. It may be the perfect show. I just wish TV was available via FTP.

    Family Guy is back on the air as well and airs right before The Tick

    Taco you post a story about Morpheus and then bitch about not being able to get the Buffy Musical. Let's think about that huh?

    I downloaded the entire episode less than an hour after it had aired.

    Not to mention that all of the songs have been mp3ed are on Morpheus too.

    Happy hunting

    It's tragic, but nobody forced them to make a musical...

    I know I will probably be moderated down by being off-topic, but why didn't (or don't, as it is still time :) slashdot post anything about 24?
    Not only it's been spected to be the greatest serie of this season, but they also had the guts to show a 747 being exploded for terrorism reasons (I'm surprised I din't see any criticism about that yet).
    Don't take me wrong: I don't have anything about posting a story about The Tick (much the opposite, I'm expecting it to be a great show too), I just think 24 deserved a review/post too.

    PS: BTW, 24 will be aired again tomorrow night

    >> The idea of writing is to communicate. If a write "There goes a kat" it would be incorrect spelling, however, I still convey my meaning."

    ...and I guess you could communicate your homosexuality by parting my cheeks and tossing my salad while I sip a Mochachino at the local Starbucks. Such behavior doesn't make public rimming any more acceptable than 5th grade writing by a professional journalist.
