Great reviews, low ratings. Low ratings = low advertising revenue. It's a shame, it was a great show.
Now, what I want to know is why...WHY did Fox cancel The Tick without giving it a chance to suceed. They kept changing the time it was on and the day it was on with little to no promotion. Before wacking it, give it a shot on a Tuesday or Sunday and see if people will watch. You can do that between sweeps months. But when you're up against the Friends run-off and Survivor without any regularity or promotion, you're screwed. Bastards!
