This was the epitome of TV action in its time, I used to wait with anticipation every week for this show and I wasn’t a kid 😂. They did such a great job, especially given the special effects that were available at the time.
@@MrFilmMakerNumber2 that always scared me when I was a kid. I have a very vague memory of watching this on TV, maybe the original airing. I had to have been only four at the time.
That was intentional by the producer Rob Johnson. Never wanted Hulk to actually use his fists on anyone. I think the closest he came was the Married episode when he shoves/punches one of the party guys into the bathroom
Notice that they ALWAYS made sure to show them landing on something soft enough to not do permanent damage. They always made sure to SHOW that the person was not badly hurt.
For me that is the awesome part of Lou's body building, watching him throw around stunt doubles as the Hulk. Punching is no fun when you have three times the strength of a regular man. When I was in my 20s and thirties I spent 6 days a week lifting for almost two hours each day. Seeing Lou Ferrigno show case his strength was best part of the The Incredible Hulk TV show.
You know I'm amazed that back in the 60s, marvel managed to skate around the comics code authority in how the US Army could not be represented in a negative light and the big guys most prevailant opponent was always the military. Seeing big Lou here take on a tank was bad ass! This was the hulk that we know from the comics before the CGI and it's just as impressive.
Lmao bozo. The hulk from the comics could easily lift 100 tons like the CGI hulk you old farts keep complaining about. Lou's hulk couldn't even lift a tank Lmao.
@@jermainewright1757 Absolutely not. I mean I don’t know if he could’ve, but nothing he did in the show showed that kind of strength. That tank weighs thirty to forty tons so comics Hulk could curl one with one arm. It’s hard to calculate this Hulk’s strength though because the writing was good enough not to push the special effects into territory they couldn’t handle. This was a smart way to show immense power without looking too hokey.
@@jermainewright1757 There’s another time when he was trapped behind eight inch steel walls and he started punching the wall and someone said that in a few minutes he would get through. He dented eight inch steel. That’s pretty powerful stuff. Those are the two biggest things I remember him doing.
Just brought the complete box set of the incredible hulk from Amazon .....not had chance to watch the DVDs on the hulk but looking forward to watching real soon .... Love the incredible hulk....great viewing 👍
@@Чебуречек_антиквд no he's not. 2003 is the strongest on screen Hulk. 70s Hulk is the weakest, since the showrunner wanted to make him grouded. This hulk is in Spider-man strenght range level at best.
@@lordvastor98oh, brother. Sorry for that comment. I said that because 1977 hulk bent tank gun with more ease than 2003. Also, in the 1990, they improved hulk's strength.
Best series of my childhood growing up. I read the comics to it and especially when David changed it was the best part of it. If they did a remake of the series, it definitely won't be the same in this century. Its better off as it was when i was growing up.
Me too I remember seeing this TV show back in the 80 when I was a kid and now I'm a 43 year old man I still miss my childhood on my favorite TV show back in my days 😢 💔 😞
I thank my old man for introducing me to these as a child 🤙🏾 Freaking Orchestra was always on point , what a classic 🤌🏾💿 Bixby hated those eye contacts so much but his transformation’s were always dope , Lou the bigman always 💚💚.
This and the Prometheus episode was about as close as the TV Hulk ever got to battle the military like his comic book origins. The movies then had him doing this. It’s like an M Night Shyamalan version of Hulk. In Glass the big comic book fight took place in a car park rather than a big city, one car was damaged rather than lots. David Dunn bent the steel pipe to cage the riot Police. Very similar to the situations the TV Hulk got involved in.
@@Zurround It's funny you mentioned that ! In the paralel universe wich i'm from, Swcharznegger is the hulk in this show, and in the last episode of the show, he fights the red hulk, played by non other than Lou Ferrigno himself!
it would have made the show even better if they had some hulk characters in it from the comics and id think this episode would made a lot of people think of ross
The thumbnail looks like the 2003 Hulk fighting the tanks. I also like how to Hulk breaks the gun with his hands because. The Hulk did that in the one the first comics when Igor was stealing Bruce banner's formula.
I agree love the hulk, only thing I'd say he doesn't really have 'super powers', as in Superman or Spiderman etc, he's just immensely strong, but yes he's my favourite.
Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno as Hulk make me remember these episodes as really good to see when I was younger till today. Lou Ferrigno had such a good body and with makeup he looked like the Hulk.
The show was never built around the comic book version. The director and bixby wouldn't have made the show. So they decided to make it more realistic which ultimately made the show a classic.
Man growing up watching this show one thing I always wondered about is just how many shirts,jeans and boots David went through everytime he Hulked out.
@@craigj.davies1983 No, I'm not. I seen the Hulk destroy an entire Army. He tossed a tank, Threw a piece of a sculpture at a Helicopter, and he nearly broke the world.
@@UltimateSpider1385He nearly broke the world? Wait....what? That might had happened in the comic books, which if you ask me is stupid, but that didn't happen in this TV series, also as well, show me the scene where he throws a peice of rock at a helicopter? Why are you lying?
Unlike his comics counterpart, this version of the Hulk isn't bulletproof. I remember him getting shot on the show as a kid and thinking, "Wait...that's not right..."
In this particular episode the healing factor saved him. Banner and others were affected by a biological weapon which caused blindness. Banner figured out that it worked by slowing the subject's metabolism and a cure would involve accelerating the metabolism to counter it. This enabled scientists to administer a cure for the others. Banner didn't get it but fortunately he had his own built-in metabolism accelerator.
When David keeps stumbling around...setting off the gas grenades. stumbling....coughing and wheezing... .and then the explosive pits... ....which FINALLY trigger the HULK... .. I cannot HELP but LAUGH !! And that music ...the SAME music in the "quarry scene" in "behind the wheel"...SURE ADDS to the scene !!!
I get it’s old but damn this is so bad it’s funny Acting, the growling, the action, the directing. Not what I expected to see looking back on a show people cherish so deeply
I also noticed the green "booties" he was wearing as he pushed back the tank. I can imagine it would have been hard on Lou's feet walking around on a dirt road so I can appreciate why he wore them; it just would have been nice if they used some makeup to better conceal them.
I know one other Marvel character we won't get live action till NetFlix was Banner's cousin Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk they even have the character of Bruce Banner aka the Hulk from the Avengers in it.
If Jack McGee was involved in this adventure he would be surprised to see the Hulk fight the United States Army, but he would tell them that he needs the creature alive.
This was in the late 70s, early 80s, no CGI crap like we have today, i always love that theme when Bill Bixby has those green contacts to turn into the Hulk, such a classic!
@@smithwesson1896 Lol, I can see the charm in these old episodes but there's literally no comparison between this Hulk and the Hulk we see in Avengers 2011 and onward. It's night and day. The only people who will say this Hulk is better are people who watched the series as a kid and because of that have nostalgia towards it. Rose-tinted glasses. You can literally tell this Hulk is just a 6'5 dude in green paint and the scenes where he shows his strength are mediocre at best because they simply didn't have the technology back then to make him seem like an actual freak of nature.
@@Gilded2H Exactly. Don't get me wrong, I loved the old show and the stories they told, but everytime I see someone say "This Hulk would have whipped Thanos" I absolutely roll my eyes.
They never did explain how when he transforms into the Hulk, he destroys all his clothing but somehow the waist of his pants stays intact. Of course, if he more realistically burst the waist of his pants when he transformed, we would have an X-rated Hulk show.
Maybe Netflix or AMC could reboot The Incredible Hulk, Netflix did a good job on the Lost in Space reboot, and if amc does it that means the Hulk would be in the Breaking Bad, NO !!! Smashing Bad universe!!!💪🤢Aaaaaarrgh!!!!!
Just watching this scene seeing the Hulk go up against an Army tank brings back memories of what happened in the movie with Eric Bana where the Hulk grabbed hold of the tank barrel and bent it only in this version he bent it downwards towards the ground instead of where the Tank commander sat and I'm betting this episode is where they got that idea for the movie HULK with Eric Bana and Sam Elliot.
That was the whole premise of the show, that the Army was testing a gas that caused blindness. David is exposed to the gas earlier in the episode and it took transforming into the Hulk for his vision to be healed.
@@glennszydlowski5987 There was a friend in the Army who also got blinded by the same gas. But David had already discovered before his second Hulk-out that briefly heightening one's metabolism would reverse the process, and so was able to find a way to cure him as well without his having to become another Hulk.
Lol... You can see that's its exhaust tubing for a barrel as its got those ripples in the bend and for a moment, you can see exhaust clamps holding the barrel in place. I probably watched this back in the 80s and i never missed an episode. The hulk was my favorite.
They never did explain how David was able to afford to buy new clothes after every hulk out working just menial odd jobs throughout the series. They also never explained that while he grew big enough to burst out of his shirts somehow his pants always still fit albeit with some rips. Of course if they had done a realistic hulk out, the hulk would have been completely naked.
They decided at the time this Hulk wasn't bullet proof. Good thing though is that the gunshot doesn't seem to slow him down, as though he's already healing quickly.
I showed my son this show in 2010 when he was 6 years old and he said "This Hulk is a bum" I'm happy to say that he is doing great with his new family.
I grew up watching the live action Incredible Hulk series and the cartoon series and I too wish they could have put the character of General Ross in the live action series with Bill Bixby or at least someone in the series that was close to the character even though sadly everyone knows we won't get anything live action with the character of General Ross till the 2 live action movies with Eric Bana and Edward Norton came out.
I totally agree, the strength feats shown in your listed episodes were some of the most incredible feats of the entire series. I would also add in the pressure chamber escape scene from the pilot.
I’ve never ever saw this episode before. In the comics, Banner and his alter ego, the Incredible Hulk were pursued by other Super Beings and the United States Army, led a crazy General, whose hell-bent on destroying him with an high tech army of “Hulkbusters.”
Whoever wrote this episode more than likely had that in mind and had a sly sense of humor, but probably could not include General Ross for legal reasons.
I always wondered how David supported himself with room and board as he travelled around the country trying to find a cure. He always used fake personas to get the job he has in each episode but how does he get hired with no driver's license, social security card or other identification. I guess in the 70s it was easier to get a job where the employer couldn't check your credentials.
@@Najae-k7g He got rammed in the leg from behind by a forklift once too, and several times stone walls have collapsed on him. So yeah you'd think he be at least resistant to small arms fire but nope. Imo they nerfed him much too much. I can't forget the one where a second Hulk-like creature he was fighting was shot to death by some Podunk sheriff with a mere handgun. Should have at least required a rifle or an AK-47. Would imo have been more realistic rather than less.
This was the epitome of TV action in its time, I used to wait with anticipation every week for this show and I wasn’t a kid 😂. They did such a great job, especially given the special effects that were available at the time.
This is the closest the Hulk ever got to the comics in the TV series. Bending the tank barrel was awesome.
This and Promethus. Yep, as far as Kenneth Johnson and Bill Bixby were concerned that's the most comic booky this show was gonna get lol.
Every time Banner transforms, it give me chills of excitement as if I was 8 years old again. Love these clips...great memories, great show!
Me too, 1 of my favorite series
It was that sound tone when his eyes change and bust outta his clothes.
@@MrFilmMakerNumber2 that always scared me when I was a kid. I have a very vague memory of watching this on TV, maybe the original airing. I had to have been only four at the time.
Exactly! The eyes glowing first is the most epic transformation that's missing from the new movies!
Yeah..gives chills on my balls
Don't make me angry. I like Hulk's tone. It gives me courage
“This can’t be happening!” Responds : “well it is!” Pure writing genius gold I Tell ya!
Kind of brings new meaning to the saying we have an army, we have a hulk Doesn't it?
Always loved that this Hulk never really punched anyone. He just threw them like rag dolls.
That was intentional by the producer Rob Johnson. Never wanted Hulk to actually use his fists on anyone. I think the closest he came was the Married episode when he shoves/punches one of the party guys into the bathroom
A punch from the Hulk could be fatal to a regular person.

Bill and Lou were the best in this series.
Yes he is such a wimp I could beat him up easily. The Hulk's human persona should be a total wimp.
The best!

I grew up watching the live action Incredible Hulk series and the cartoon series and I too wish they could have put the character of General Ross in the live action series with Bill Bixby or at least someone in the series that was close to the character even though sadly everyone knows we won't get anything live action with the character of General Ross till the 2 live action movies with Eric Bana and Edward Norton came out.
Where the hell was General Thaddeus E. "Thunderbolt" Ross in all this?
General Thunderbolt Ross is gonna be so fucking pissed to see his men down
Man I wish we got more of this and Prometheus in the show with the Classic Hulk cast
I totally agree, the strength feats shown in your listed episodes were some of the most incredible feats of the entire series. I would also add in the pressure chamber escape scene from the pilot.
I remember watching this as a kid
Hulk : "Leave me alone.. HUUUUAAAA!!!! "
I’ve never ever saw this episode before. In the comics, Banner and his alter ego, the Incredible Hulk were pursued by other Super Beings and the United States Army, led a crazy General, whose hell-bent on destroying him with an high tech army of “Hulkbusters.”
Whoever wrote this episode more than likely had that in mind and had a sly sense of humor, but probably could not include General Ross for legal reasons.
This Hulk finish thanos in one punch 😂😂
Before CGI there was Lou
Hulk bleeding from a bullet lmao
Doesn't David have a normal job like I do? Always in trouble
Yes. He has several normal jobs throughout the series. That’s how he supports himself in between Hulk outs/ adventures
I always wondered how David supported himself with room and board as he travelled around the country trying to find a cure. He always used fake personas to get the job he has in each episode but how does he get hired with no driver's license, social security card or other identification. I guess in the 70s it was easier to get a job where the employer couldn't check your credentials.
@@glennszydlowski5987 It was much easier, although not as much easier as shows like this or the vaguely similar 1960s The Fugitive would imply.
Sorry! Isn’t Hulk supposed to be bullet proof?! 😂😂😂
The show nerfed his durability to be only immune to punches and bats and something else but not bullets he still has decent durability tho
@@Najae-k7g He got rammed in the leg from behind by a forklift once too, and several times stone walls have collapsed on him. So yeah you'd think he be at least resistant to small arms fire but nope. Imo they nerfed him much too much. I can't forget the one where a second Hulk-like creature he was fighting was shot to death by some Podunk sheriff with a mere handgun. Should have at least required a rifle or an AK-47. Would imo have been more realistic rather than less.
@jasontoddman7265 when did all that stuff happen I watched the whole series but after a few years I forgot most of hulks durability feats?
