The wonderful Jackie Earle Haley is back as The Terror, who has captured Arthur and utilizes Alexa. Also back are Miss Lint, Overkill and Arthur’s concerned sister Dot. Superion doesn’t return until episode eight, which establishes that the Uber-riding Overkill boasts equipment that differs from The Punisher’s. In episode nine we learn the origin of The Tick’s famed battle cry. If you can start watching without finishing these six new episodes, you’re a stronger human being than I. I find Steve The DangerBoat hilarious. I find Arthur’s stepdad Walter hilarious. In case you need reminding, “The Tick” is one hilarious show.
The premiere of “Bachelor Winter Games” did poorly last Thursday, drawing lower ratings than repeats of three CBS sitcoms and a new episode of “20/20.”
