Maitre D’ from the 2019 version of Cats
Like, some bits of the movie were actually pretty good and I loved the added in characters, especially Maitre D’. I just find him to be such a cutie pie and I think it’d be cute to see him and Mistoffelees following Bustopher around during his musical number. Maybe he’s Misto’s father, as Bustopher is always considered to be the magician’s uncle! I just love him so much and would love to him in a future production
Jitterbug!
Chris Traeger and The Tick
I just feel like they’d clash together pretty well and Chris would teach Tick about the healthy things he could eat. He’d probably listen to the Blue Yonder talk about Arthur and they’d share stories about their friends.
And Tick would totally catch on to the last name thing and try it on everybody he knew had a last name

Last night I had a dream where Munkustrap was in a pixelated computer game and he had to defeat Thrakkorzog or something. He shot out electric shocks when you pressed X and coughed up a hairball when you pressed space. “Extra Nerdy” was his big move and it’d put the enemy to sleep for a moment.
It was eventful
Ah. To be a gay boat having a dance party with your broody roommate and his new girlfriend
I still fear for Eddie, even if he isn’t gone YET. Because he is meant to play the lover role to Frank and was the first to see the horrors when Welcome Home WAS Welcome Home.
He could become “scrapped” like Sunny was. Because, you notice the pattern right? Sunny was Frank’s lover before the first update, but then he was scrapped because he found out what was happening. But of course, someone, either Wally or Home, had to make it so no one remembered him, thus leading us to the neighborhood we know today
I love trying different styles and seeing how they work for me. Needless to say, I like the one I used for Victoria a little bit more than Electra’s, but Exotica’s is okay. I’m not keeping these though. I drew them for my aunt, along with several others I won’t be posting because I did use styles from actual artists I looked up and don’t wang to take credit for the work they did that I just redrew.
Reblog if you support a hardworking, bankrobbing, single, lobster monster mom and her children.
Because it doesn’t base the whole film around romance, no! It bases it on brotherly love and I think that’s amazing
What if the tick was actually immortal? What if he was still around when his sidekick got old? What if Arthur died of old age? What would The Tick do then? Imagine, Tick seeing his most favorite person in the world slowly pass away
The upgrade from this
To this
Is absolutely insane
Let me preface this by saying the CEO in charge of Prime Video who greenlit The Tick and was supportive of it was fired before Season 2 was even greenlit. The new CEO then cancelled every developing pilot and show that first guy had greenlit, so everyone was worried he’d cancel the Tick back then but he didn’t. He let season 2 happen. Season 2 got way better reviews than season 1, but that doesn’t seem to matter. I don’t think this new guy even watched it or has any stake in it. He only wants his own shows to do well.
So let’s look at this Amazon Fire ad that cross promotes The Tick season 1 first because it’s been plaguing me for years.
1) You’re cross promoting a show, but you’re making it look like women hate it on sight SO BADLY that the’re willing to leap off the couch rather than sit and give it a chance.
2) The only selling point her friend gives is that the actor completely covered in foam padding is attractive, British, and wearing tight clothes– which are again covered in foam padding and his character doesn’t have his British accent so how is that a selling point.
3) They’re not even watching the show, they’re watching an ad.
4) The show has amazing writing, and is hella funny and silly, which is not acknowledged. You know nothing about the show from this ad.
5) No one in it’s whole 2 seasons you allowed it, has sex, but you’re selling it on it’s sex appeal?
6) This came out in 2017 but in hindsight I don’t think a single network exec bothered to watch this show, so of course they had no idea how to sell it. It got AMAZING reviews for season2 and they cancelled it right away because they didn’t know wtf they had. So sad #SaveTheTick
Again, that was an old ad, but it does show how Amazon is completely incompetent at promoting this show. Back when the show was just a pilot and they were developing the first season, Amazon held a contest called #TICKSAVEMYCITY Now I don’t want to assume they rigged it or something, but I can only find about 3 entries to this contest, which are the top 3 finalists. All 3 of them sound like they know how to talk in front of a camera. Like they have background in stage performance or commercial acting in some way. You judge for yourself.
Contestant 1 Contestant 2 Contestant 3
Here’s the video of the winner getting help for his charity case and I can’t for the life of me figure out what website he claims he found out about the contest on… TONKLE DOT COM?? Wtf is that… I just…? Tongle? Ok I looked in the description and it’s “ Tongal “
Have you ever in your life heard of Tongal.com ? It sounds interesting in theory, a website for people who create stuff– why is that where the massive website AMAZON DOT COM choses to advertise? It boasts 160,000 users. That’s not even a half million. This was a cool idea. I like the cute Tick hats for all the kids but if you haven’t noticed yet, the font they chose for this show is SO FUCKING BORING. White shirts with boring black font. This has been a problem with the marketing team since the show’s inception that never really went away. Even signs at comic con used this shitty visual it looks like it is just basic instructions not a show advertisement. Still it’s nice to know somewhere in Charlotte, North Carolina there is a refugee center with giant Tick antennas painted on the wall for some cancelled streaming show on Amazon Prime.
EMBRACE YOUR DESTINY NC REFUGEES! TICK HAS EMBRACED HIS, THAT HE IS DOOMED TO BE CANCELLED BY AMAZON’S SHITTY MARKETING TEAM!
They tried to not even have a panel for the upcoming season 2 at comic con, then they tried to squeeze one in to a tiny room before allowing a larger one last minute. It was becoming obvious that they were setting up season 2 for failure. The Dangerboat Experience at comic con promoting season 1, was the biggest and best booth at comic con that year [2017 I believe]. Season 2 comes around and suddenly nothing.
They only seemed to promote season 2 at conventions and a few of the largest cities in the USA, and no where else. As a result, even though season 2 got a 100% critic rating, which is fucking unheard of, and a 97% audience score, which is also rare, it’s possible the show didn’t get as many eyeballs this season as it should have– because no one knew season 2 had dropped!
The star of the show took to the internet asking if anyone would like to interview him– because Amazon did not send him out to do press in promotion of season 2. He had to do it on his own time and on his own dime. Because he gives a shit about the show doing well. In fact most of the show’s actors have been very vocal about caring about this show and worrying over it.
And then Amazon cancelled it, without giving any explanation. I assume the excuse is that not enough people saw it or are talking about it– which is by design. They did the bare minimum in getting the word out, because they never watched the show and didn’t care that it was critically acclaimed or well liked. The cancellation had to be announced through Tick’s creator on twitter, because Amazon certainly isn’t going to tell you about it. And thankfully, there’s a chance to #SaveTheTick , he is allowed the opportunity to bring the show to another network. Fantastic- but it needs fan support. Who wants a show no one is talking about? Why was no one talking about it? THEY DIDN’T EVEN KNOW SEASON 2 DROPPED LET ALONE THAT IT WAS CANCELED RIGHT AFTER because no Amazon promotion.
So again the actors saved the day by running to reddit, podcasts, twitter, instagram, even 4Chan of all places just to let people know how they can help #SaveTheTick and it’s working [I can’t specify what I know but I hear good things], suddenly there’s a huge influx of fans tweeting about it. Because the show is ACTUALLY GOOD. And if you just promote it a little, people will watch it and realize that it’s worth saving. The actor who plays Frank of the Pyramid Gang, in particular had a big hand in this influx of eyeballs. He campaigns for the show day and night across every platform he can, I believe he even made the subreddit about the cancellation and how to help save the show. He even joined our fan Discord and I kinda coached him through how to post on 4Chan when he suddenly jumped on there, until about 2am when the board banned him because he was technically advertising. [Oops, lesson learned]
We have tweets from celebrities and verious Twitter blue checkmark holders including Mark Hamill, Misha Collins, even Guillermo Del Toro showing the support this show and asking people to #SaveTheTick . So now we’re all tweeting day and night for at least another week or so to show that we do care, there is a lot of us, and we will follow this show to whatever channel will accept it.
There is even a fan created petition directed at Netflix to pick up the show, as I’m typing this it’s at 4,709+ signatures but it’s climbing all the time. https://www.change.org/p/netflix-save-the-tick
I just hope enough people give it a chance that it looks good enough to be picked up by somebody. And I hope whatever network that is is accessible enough that it will continue to have eyeballs on it for more seasons to come.
*~**~*~ Now it’s the fan’s turn to promote the show. Word of mouth, social media, please do whatever you can, WE ARE HELPING I promise! ~**~*~*

I think Valastor (Valentino x Alastor) is one of the funniest ships I’ve seen (this is not meant to be insulting). I mean, it’s an aroace and aromantic man with a literal pimp!
Meet Persephone: The only Platoria kitten there is and ever will be that is biologically theirs. Once Victoria gave birth to this cutie, her owners had her spayed so it didn’t happen again. Plato is honestly dissapointed at this, but that doesn’t mean they can’t adopt more. He loves his beautiful girl and is very protective of her.
Persephone adores both her parents and cuddles up between them every night to bed, but she really likes her uncle Mistoffelees. He’s just so cool with his magic and she’s jealous she doesn’t have any like him. Her uncle Tugger is okay…ish. She doesn’t like HIM very much.
EEEEEEEEEEEEE 🐬
