[TMC]

The Incredible Hulk is an American television series that ran for 5 seasons starting in 1978 based on the Marvel Comics character The Hulk. The series aired on the CBS television network and starred Bill Bixby as Dr. David Bruce Banner and Lou Ferrigno as the Hulk.

While there are many differences between the comic and the TV show, the series was still wildly popular in its own right and forged it's own path into pop culture.

In this history of the Incredible Hulk TV series video, I take a detailed look at the show, its actors, its comic book origins from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, as well as fun trivia surrounding this classic Marvel Comics TV superhero television show starring Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno.

I take a look at the voices of the Hulk like Ted Cassidy and Charles Napier. We'll take a look back at the TV history of Bill Bixby in shows like My Favorite Martian and the body building career of Lou Ferrigno.

Finally, at the end, I show you a few fun technical goofs and bloopers from the Incredible Hulk TV show from the '70s and '80s.

In this video we take a look at the history and story of the Incredible Hulk’s determined antagonist, Jack McGee from the popular TV series starring Jack Colvin as McGee, Bill Bixby as David Banner, and Lou Ferrigno as the Incredible Hulk. What was his motivation? Did he really want to help the Hulk or the man who becomes the creature or was it all just about McGee’s career? Should David Banner have trusted him?

I follow McGee’s biggest highlights from the pilot episode and until the end including the times McGee came the closest to discovering David Banner was still alive.

Jack McGee worked for the newspaper the National Register and hounded the Hulk most of the series even appearing on the first TV movie the Return of the Incredible Hulk before disappearing from the TV movies to follow.

I also talk a little bit about the connection between the Six Million Dollar Man and the Incredible Hulk series including Jack Colvin's past connection to the show a connection shared by Hulk series developer Kenneth Johnson.
