'The Incredible Hulk is an American television series based on the Marvel Comics character The Hulk. The series aired on the CBS television network and starred Bill Bixby as David Banner, Lou Ferrigno as the Hulk, and Jack Colvin as Jack McGee. #TheHulk #DocuGods In the TV series, Dr. David Banner, a widowed physician and scientist, who is presumed dead, travels across America under assumed names. In times of extreme anger or stress, he transforms into a huge, incredibly strong green creature, who has been named \"The Hulk\". In his travels, Banner earns money by working temporary jobs while searching for a way to either control or cure his condition. After the series ended, the fate of David Banner was unknown. In 1988, filming rights were purchased from CBS by rival NBC. They produced three television films. David Bruce Banner, M.D., Ph.D., is a physician and scientist employed at the Culver Institute who is traumatized by the car accident that killed his beloved wife, Laura (played by Lara Parker). After months of work, the only two significant common factors they can find between the subjects are extreme emotional commitments and an abnormally high percentage of the adenine/thymine combination in their DNA. Working late one night, Banner hypothesizes that high levels of gamma radiation from sunspots contribute to the subjects\' increase in strength. Impatient to test his theory, Dr. Banner conducts an unsupervised experiment in the lab, bombarding his own body with gamma radiation. Driving home in a heavy rainstorm, Dr. Banner\'s frustration peaks when his car has a flat tire and he injures himself with a tire iron trying to change it. This triggers his transformation into the Incredible Hulk, a 7-foot-tall (2.1 m), 330-pound (150 kg), green-skinned savage creature, with a sub-human mind and superhuman strength. The Hulk destroys Banner\'s car and wanders off into the nearby woods. As the sun rises, the Hulk stumbles upon a girl and her father camping. In the ensuing confusion, the Hulk is shot by the girl\'s father, and responds by breaking his rifle and throwing him into the pond. Leaving the area, the Hulk eventually transforms back into Dr. Banner, with no memory of his time as the Hulk and little memory of the events immediately before or after. Wounded and confused, he visits Dr. Marks. Her amazement at Dr. Banner\'s healing powers (his gunshot wound is nearly healed) is replaced by shock and horror when Dr. Banner tells her that he bombarded himself with gamma radiation. Bill Bixby as David Bruce Banner, physician and scientist, based on the comic book character Bruce Banner. Lou Ferrigno as Hulk, a large, green, muscular creature that is the mindless angry alter-ego to David Banner Jack Colvin as Jack McGee, a reporter tracking the Hulk\'s trail Ted Cassidy as the narrator and the voice of the Hulk Charles Napier as the voice of the Hulk (after Cassidy\'s death in 1979) Johnson made several changes from the comic book, in part to translate it into a live-action show that was more believable and acceptable to a wide audience, and in part because he disliked comics and thus felt it best that the show was as different from the source material as possible. In the character\'s origin story, rather than being exposed to gamma rays during a botched atomic testing explosion, Banner is gamma-irradiated in a more low-key laboratory mishap during a test on himself. Another change was Banner\'s occupation, from physicist to medical researcher/physician. Although the comic book Hulk\'s degree of speaking ability has varied over the years, the television Hulk did not speak at all—he merely growled and roared. Hulk co-creator Stan Lee later recounted, \"When we started the television show, Ken said to me, \'You know, Stan, I don\'t think the Hulk should talk.\' The minute he said it, I knew he was right. [In the comics,] I had the Hulk talking like this: \'Hulk crush! Hulk get him!\' I could get away with it in a comic, but that would have sounded so silly if he spoke that way in a television show.\" Tags: \"The Incredible Hulk\", Incredible, Hulk, American, television, series, Marvel Comics, character, The Hulk, CBS television network, Bill Bixby, comic, book, Bruce Banner, Lou Ferrigno, large, green, muscular, creature, mindless, angry, alter-ego, Jack Colvin, Ted Cassidy, Charles Napier, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby,'
