This is one of my all-time favorite series. It holds up pretty well today, some dated fashions notwithstanding. The stories were adult and treated the audience with a fair amount of respect. My favorite is "Prometheus", unquestionably. Each of the two-parters had something special about them; one part I especially like is when Banner regains his memory in "Mystery Man", and that along with his memory comes th eremembering of all the hardship he'd gone through. Another good one was "Dark Side"-the image of a psychotic Banner goading some guys to beat him up to release the Hulk is scary indeed.

I was disappointed in each of the reunion films, the last one especially. It really felt like Bixby almost didn't realize or understand what made the original series so enjoyable. His Banner was the same, but so much of the feeling otherwise was missing. Something that should have been addressed in one of them was the idea that the Hulk was wanted for the murder of two people. In fact, a script had been written about that for the original series, but the show got cancelled before it was produced (I think there's three or four unproduced scripts out there).

At least the show is getting complete season sets released. Can anyone explain to me why Universal is putting an episode from the next season as an extra on the current season? Season one had a second season episode as an extra, then season 2 had one from three. I'd rather there be some interviews with Bixby as extras, or even the Mr. Roger's Neighborhood episode that went behind the scenes on the set during the filming of "Homecoming."

Professor X, although I understand what you're saying, the presence of the Hulk is pretty obligatory in order to reinforce the plight of Banner's condition. If you look at the Hulk as his own, distinct character, then his appearances fit in much more naturally. The Hulk had his own personality and motivations and the best episodes had his actions being central to the plot.

There had been talk during one of the seasons that Universal really wanted to cut back the budget. To do this, they would have given Banner some type of a partner/fellow traveller, and have them drive around in an RV; that way, they could save on all the location work. Oh, and have only one Hulk-out per episode. This was considered a bad idea all around and thankfully never came to pass.
