The evil David Banner
29 June 2008 | by (Iceland) – See all my reviews

One of David's self experiments goes wrong while he's boarding with a family with it's fair share of problems and he inadvertently triggers the primitive side of his brain. Now if David gets mad he'll unleash a powerful Hulk that's ready to kill and good ol' David is pretty nasty himself.

Solid episode, could have been even better but it's still very entertaining. Bixby obviously has fun with playing a meaner version of David Banner but top credits go to Ferrigno who makes the Hulk here look very scary.

The Hulk scene at the bar is great and the buildup to it is fantastic (with David jokingly "warning" a few guys that they won't like him when he gets angry). I just feel it could have been a little better, the conclusion is not satisfying and Bixby overdoes the mad laughter thing a bit. Still, for a fan of the series it's great entertainment.
