hulk tv series

This brings back memories. I used to watch this all the time as a kid - pretty sure I've seen every episode.

Classic tv show rip bill Bixby he was such a kind soul and so is Lou ferrigno used to love watching this as a kid

@spacebullseye The pilot episode is the best Lou ever looked in his Hulk make up. His Mr Olympia physique, the prosthetic teeth and cranium all made the Hulk look his most primative and beastial.

bill bixby was the greatest hulk actor ever!!!!!

Hi, the reason Kenneth Johnson named him David Banner is because Marvel Comics wouldn't allow Universal to recreate the exact story. They grabbed enough money for the permissions but insisted it was only based on the original and not the same. hope that helps :)

SOY TERESA DIAZ DE COLOMBIA DEL DEPARTAMENTO DEL QUINDIO ME ENCANTAN ESE Autor de esas películas ni lo cambio por nadie Dios lo bendiga

Ted Cassidy did the narration in the main titles as well as The Hulk's roar -Lurch of course from the Addams Family unfortunately he died early on so the Hulk's roar changed as the series carried on. He was also the voice of Godzilla in the Hanna Barbera cartoon series.

0:05- it looks like Lou is having fun being the Hulk...

Saudades desta época!!!

miss you to this day,:( Rest in peace Bix

BTW, Marc Ruffalo (the new Banner actor) did the mo-cap for Hulk in Avengers, so when Hulk moves, it's actually Ruffalo in that black suit, and they simply put Hulk's 3D textures over his movements. So there, they actually did use someone, and it's the actor himself.

Also cool was that Ted Cassidy (Lurch from the Addams Family) narrated the show's title opening. Ted also provided the "roar" and grunt sounds of the Hulk, not Lou Ferrigno.

Love the small pic at 0:53 that you can see of most of the cast of TIH Returns along with the great Stan Lee.

R.I.P Bill Bixby

@MidnightsFire2099 The producers named him "David" as in reference to "David & Goliath". One of Stan Lee's nickname for Hulk is "The Green Goliath". However, the producers named him David, to avoid Batman campiness, with the comics. It wasn't until the reunion movies, the series acknowledged other "Marvel" heros. Some die hard fans, don't accept the reunion series as canon though. They feel they took place in a "seperate universe".

Thank you so much! Looks like I'm going to have a serious HULK marathon very soon. Sooo looking forward to watching the whole Prometheus episodes :D

buena serie de un gran fisiculturista y gran actor Rip Bill

lo mejor de lo mejor de aquel entonces dejaba todo por ir a ver el hombre increible mi mejor programa

The guy that played demi-hulk, when he was caught halfway between Banner and Hulk, was former professional wrestler Ric Drasin

Como quisiera regresar a estos tiempos

0:01 the song creeps me out

Bill Bixby...R.I.P

Wow! really you learn something new everyday. thanks.

sessão da tarde era imperdivel

I think the piano music was from a song called ' the walking man " or something like that . You're right it was very cool music and very appropriate for the series .

Eu amava esse Hulk

Sucesso na época...molecada pirava

Good serie

Tenía 8 años cuando veía este video y daba miedo

@DC322, To this day, I still regard that as the **BIGGEST** understatement ever made in episodic TV. :)

Today was my 2nd time watching the Avengers and it is my favourite marvel movie ive seen and your right the fight scene with the Hulk and Thor was a lot better than the Hulk vs Thor from the hulk returns tv movie from the 80s i loved the tv series of the hulk i have them all on dvd and it was a lot better than the 3 tv movies of the hulk

Didn't know that Ted Cassidy for the Addams Family was the voice of the Hulk in the series. Awesome.

tempos bons,que saudade.

Yes indeed and as was said before, Kenny Johnson didn't want this to be a comic book series.

Saudades desses anos, que tinha sessão da tarde.

Exactly.

YES HULK AND VILLAIN ARCADE YES

Yes thats right

Love the shows intro. ""...The creature is driven by rage, and pursued by an investigative reporter. The creature is wanted for a murder he didn't commit. David Banner is believed to be dead, and he must let the world think that he is dead, until he can find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him.""

The one with them all with Stan Lee was when they all came back together years later after the series finshed they did 3 reunion movies this was the movie set of The incredible Hulk Returns with Thor in it

Verey nice

Dont make me angry...you wouldnt like me when I,m angry.... We couldn,t wait for the eyes to turn weird,it always seemed to take too long! Us kids always wondered where he got his new sets of clothes after he ripped them apart. Everytime he went hitchhiking towards new adventures he wore brandnew clothes.(?) And the final melody was so melancholic.........such a sad person,our Dr.David Banner......

Yes thats right it does say David Bruce Banner on the grave

demais esta epoca

dave was the name of the directors son. the directors wanted to try and stay way from the comic book stories as much as he could(why?). He even wanted to use a red hulk but at that point stan lee said HELL NO.

@Thebryan6145 Good to see the actors playing Thor and Don Blake in there.

As far as I'm concerned, Lou Ferrigno is & ALWAYS will be the one & only Incredible Hulk! Watching the series as a kid, Lou made the Hulk much more believable than the new movies, & I couldn't wait for the late, great, & still much missed Bill Bixby, to do the thing with the eyes, which always signalled the start of the "Hulk Out"!

Bill looks so much like Hugh Jackman!

I've heard many times from Ken Johnson himself that the main reason was to distance the series from the comics and not playing the alliteration cliche comic book character name, like Clark Kent, Peter Parker or Lex Luthor.

Sure, he's all CGI now and doesn't look as realistic (he still looked nice in Avengers) as a green bodybuilder, but at least he now looks like Hulk. Not a single human being, no matter how tall, could portray Hulk correctly anyway. Watch the Avengers, and pay attention to every fight scene with Hulk in it. There's one scene where he beats the crap out of Loki in a funny way. It just wouldn't be the same with a green bodybuilder.

Actually his name was 'Robert Bruce Banner', don't know where the TV show got 'David' from.

Pra mim dos melhore filme

i was checking his out and my girl pointed it out. funny shit. lol

Bill Bixby was the first choice for David Banner, no one else could have done the role. I prefer the TV series then the movies.

thanks love :)

ainda sou seu fã cara,abraços.

Ok good

@MidnightsFire2099 From the Wiki: According to Kenneth Johnson (the developer and producer), the name change was made because he didn't want the series to be perceived as a comic book series, where major characters often had alliterative names (eg. Peter Parker, Lois Lane). According to Lou Ferrigno, the name was changed because CBS thought the name Bruce sounded "too gay-ish." Kenneth Johnson also says that naming him David was a way to honor his own son David.

Apparently, Kenneth Johnson, the Hulk series creator, didn't like comic book names like Bruce Banner, Peter Parker, Matt Murdoch and Clark Kent which is partly why he changed his name to David.

Yes I see it myself now that you mention it he does look a bit like Ben Stiller

@MidnightsFire2099 Yeah thats right it was Robert Bruce Banner dont know why at the time they named him David but the tv series was a classic anyway

Don't get me ANGRY Don't get me ANGRY have some behavior, have some behavior, Don't get me ANGRY , Don't get me ANGRY, show some respect y'all show some respect y'all

I heard the same.

Kool

Hola a todos. Dios los cuide

I didn't see at first my self until my girlfriend pointed it out.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏

@Thebryan6145 ....I saw an interview with Stan Lee, and he said he didnt care for Bruce, it sounded a little on the, not so manly side. He wanted to keep "bruce" in there, but went with David in the Series. And yes Theo, now one else would have done a better job than Bill Bixby. I am glad they went with Lou instead of the guy from the James bond movies.....

So, the picture at 0:05 -- Bix is on the left, Lou's on the right....who's the chump in the middle? Kenny Johnson??

@theo1973r Yes he sure was

@kevico2 It is Bruce Banner on everything else the movies cartoons & Comics but only in the tv series he was David and his middle name was Bruce

Lou Ferrigno, el mejor. Fisiculturista que haya existido., En Hulk, fue un genio....

@a7xbff Yeah me as well i wish he was still alive Bill Bixby was great R.I.P

The scene at 0:42 that you are talking about was the Prometheus 2 part episode

Imagine instead of green he turned pink

@MidnightsFire2099 the director thought Bruce was too gay sounding so they used his middle name of david.but on the tombstone it read David Bruce Banner.He never used Robert in the comic either.

omg I hope someone is able to help me with this. The scene at 0:42 mid transformation. Is this from the episode where he was trapped between stages of transformation, and what is the name of the episode?

Um dos meus Maiores medos da minha INFÂNCIA !!!!!!!! Kkkkkkkkkkkkk

Pensa no medo que eu tinha kkkkk

Sessão da tarde.

For the 3 people that dislike this video ive uploaded i would love to see you do better come on why are you watching this in the first place not true hulk tv series fans in my opion

I think Dr. Banner should have been more concerned about the effects of 'hulking out' in public and releasing massive doses of gamma radiation. Just look at him start glowing green when he changes, you know that's not going to turn out well for little Ricky, who later on probably turned into The Inedible Bulk or something..

1970s rock

É 0 melhor filme do mundo

@havelockify IT'S ON THE EPISODE CALLED THE FIRST

ياريت ينزلوا ذاالفلم مترجم

Hulk

@Banner1979 Yeah i like that picture as well

i like to no how mod the incredible the tv show wold you till me i like tono wit doit to Amy jo

@amazingvoicekid Don't tell that to Batman: Bruce Wayne LOL!

but at the beginning of the show , it shows a grave that says David Bruce Banner on it doesnt it ? I may be wrong , I could look and see I suppose but i dont feel like it .

0:40 is it just me or do he look like Ben Stiller?

Prometheus

Yeah i dont why they name his first name david when it was Robert

@kevico2 yeah sounds familiar. But it was David. Bruce may sound familiar for something else that you and i forgotb already!!

David Banner? I thought it was Bruce Banner!...(???)

The reason why they did not want to call him Bruce was it was a bit gay that's what I heard ages ago i know its daft lol because they called him David Bruce Banner in the TV Series and in the 80s Cartoon it was Robert Bruce Banner

@moozecan lol....sure looks like him.

they changed the 1st abd middle names so as to not be so close to the comics

@MidnightsFire2099 Kenneth Johnson felt it sounded too comic booky and wanted to get as far away from that as possible when he developed the series.
