When Universal did their older masters, they did syndication versions that had cuts for time/content. Knight Rider, Airwolf, and others have missing scenes because of that.

Also saw TIH S02 over the summer. Excellent!! It's worth noting this was the first full-length season, given that S01 only had 10 episodes. As with S01, I find this to be another excellent season, with no bad episodes.

Some S02 episode reviews:

"Married" and "Bride of the Incredible Hulk": Banner travels to Hawaii to seek the help of psychologist Dr. Carolyn Fields (Mariette Hartley) - who may be able to help him control his Hulk transformations. However, Dr. Fields is suffering from an incurable illness, and David tries to help her find a cure. In the process of her doing an experiment on David, he does turn into the Hulk....which she witnesses. Not that surprisingly, they fall in love & have a brief marriage.

[Show spoiler]The ending was expected, but tragic. I especially liked the poignant conversation that David has on the beach at the very end of the episode (with a child he had earlier saved from drowning).


These are definitely two of the best episodes in the series. Very poignant. These are two of the few episodes I remember seeing as a kid during their initial broadcast.

"Ricky": David is working on a race-track in NM, and befriends a young disabled man named Ricky. Ricky is coerced into driving a defective race-car, and the Hulk has to save him.

It seems obvious that the Ricky character here is based on "Rick Jones", the teen that Bruce Banner saves from the Gamma Radiation test - in the initial Hulk comic origin story.

"Haunted": David helps a woman who is convinced her large ancestral home is inhabited by ghost(s). Creepy episode.

"Mystery Man - Parts I-II": David's face is bandaged after a bad accident. And, after meeting the bandaged David in a hospital, reporter Jack McGee offers to help him go to a specialist in L.A. While flying there on a small plane, David & McGee crash-land in the mountains. They are the only survivors, and have to rely on each other to stay alive.
