Dicky Tick has hosted several shows on Sesame Street, demonstrating opposites or directional concepts through glamorous lifestyle shows. His series have included "Lifestyles of the Big and Little" (EKA: Episode 2580) and "Dicky Tick's In, On and Under" (EKA: Episode 2970) (with a pink nose).

He closes his broadcasts with his catchphrase, "I'm Dicky Tick saying, 'Ciao, bambinos.'"

Tick is a spoof of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous host Robin Leach.
