The Incredible Hulk - The Complete
Fourth Season
Editorial Review:
Description:
Thundering onto DVD
for the first time ever is the complete Fourth Season of The
Incredible Hulk! Primetime Emmy® Award Nominee Bill Bixby
returns as the mild-mannered scientist David Banner who
uncontrollably morphs into the enraged Hulk (Lou Ferrigno).
While searching for a cure, he encounters a variety of
characters played by impressive guest stars such as Dick
Durock (Swamp Thing), Dick O'Neill (Cagney and Lacey) and Lou
Ferrigno in a different role! This 4-disc set includes all 18
action-packed episodes and all-new exclusive bonus content
featuring show creator Kenneth Johnson. Even though Banner
proclaims "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry," take home
Season Four of The Incredible Hulk today, and you won't be
sorry!
Amazon.com:
Not even the awesome
power of The Incredible Hulk could prevent the 1980
Writers Guild strike from delaying the debut of its fourth
season, or from reducing the number of episodes in the season
from 23 to 18, but fans still found enough excitement and
drama in the lonely adventures of Dr. David Banner (Bill
Bixby) and his powerful, green-skinned alter ego (Lou
Ferrigno). It's unfortunate that the fourth season wasn't
allowed to air its complete run of episodes, since the ones
that were broadcast were among the series' best. Season opener
"Prometheus" finds Banner stuck in mid-transformation after
encountering a meteor, while "The First" introduces him to
another individual who has his own Hulk-like side. The fourth
season also shows the program's writing and production staff
continuing to deliver fresh takes on Banner's dilemma; in
"Deep Shock," he develops the ability to see into the future
after the Hulk is electrocuted in a power plant, while "The
Harder They Fall" finds Banner forced to embrace his
uncontrollable side as a means of curing his paralysis after
an accident. Jack Colvin's Jack McGee also gets a fine
showcase in "Interview with the Hulk," and Ferrigno is
featured sans makeup and wig as an aspiring bodybuilder in
"King of the Beach." Unfortunately, the truncated 4th season
was also the beginning of the end for the show; cost-cutting
measures put a halt to the fifth season after only 7 episodes,
leaving fans wanting more of the quality adventures they saw
in the fourth and final full season.
All 18 episodes
of the Hulk's fourth season are included on this
four-disc set, which also offers creator Kenneth Johnson's
scene specific commentary on "Prometheus." Johnson also weighs
in on the 10-minute featurette "Creating an Iconic Character:
The Hulk," which explores the challenges of casting the title
character (actor Richard Kiel was briefly considered) and the
producers' fond memories of working with Ferrigno, who is
oddly absent from the extra. A short gallery of production
photos from "Prometheus" and the same promotional featurette
for the Incredible Hulk theatrical release round out
the supplemental features. -- Paul
