THE BUMRUSH

As a child of the 1980's, I have fond memories of the TV movie "The Incredible Hulk Returns", which was played on a non-stop loop back in the day. In the movie, Thor makes an appearance as comic relief to the Hulk. Ridiculous? Absolutely. Still, I ate it up at the time as a 10 year old.

There has never been a better intro to a TV show than this. Ok, maybe the A-Team was a little better.

Seriously, words cannot begin to explain...

An interview with Bixby and Lou Ferrigno in 1988 on some local news show called Live Noonday. Worth a view just for Ferrigno ‘s mullet and some sweet daytime news special effects.

As a follow-up to the last Bixby clip, here is another video about David Banner turning into the Hulk for a ridiculous reason...

I DON'T HAVE 25 CENTS!

There are a number of good reasons why David Banner would turn into the Hulk – I remember a lot of the time it would be because he was shot or being beat up or something. But, not always. As the person who posted this video put it:

Usually when Dr David Banner changes into the Hulk, it is because of danger of death, extreme pain or fear. However, there have been some occasions when the transformation is triggered by something mundane we can all identify with, something I personally love...

...something like a traffic jam.

Oh boy, is this clip a find or what. Watch the Incredible Hulk fight a grizzly bear, and make sure to pay close attention at the end to see if you can spot the clever special effect they used.



Technically, Bill Bixby is no where to be found in this clip, but I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to link to this incredible video.

One of the greatest achievements of the Youtube era is the fact that we can now watch full episodes of the Incredible Hulk from the comfort of our own bean bag chairs while digging our meaty paws into another bag of orangey-delicious Cheetos. God bless this world.

In this episode:

"...a mysterious gas cannister on a US army base causes some people, including Banner to go blind and rouge generals try to get it back to cover it up....Then Hulk mayhem ensues!!!"

Some of David Banner’s best hulk outs from season 3 of the Incredible Hulk. They really give you an idea how often producers went dipped into the well of “extreme close-ups” for the hulking out scenes. And you’ve got to feel bad for Banner, he must go through about 200 pairs of boots a year. That can’t good on the old clothing budget.

This should bring back memories: The old introduction to the Incredible Hulk TV show.



Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

The quality of this video is horrible (tracking! tracking!) but it's absolutely worth a watch simply for the towel whips delivered to David Banner. I haven't felt such pain since junior high...

This clip showcases everything that was right with television in the 80's. The synopsis from YouTube:

After a jealous roadie drops some "Orange Sunshine" into his juice, both David Banner and The Hulk have their minds expanded in a not so groovy way.
