The Incredible Hulk is a superhero television series that aired on UPN from 1996 to 1998. The show was based on the Marvel Comics character, the Hulk and it was produced by Universal Television. The series starred Neal McDonough as Dr. Bruce Banner, Lou Ferrigno as the Hulk, Luke Perry as Rick Jones and Genie Francis as Betty Ross.

The series follows Dr. Bruce Banner, a scientist who is exposed to gamma radiation during an experiment gone wrong. As a result, he transforms into a powerful, green-skinned creature called the Hulk whenever he becomes angry or emotional. Dr. Banner struggles to keep his powerful alter ego under control while attempting to cure himself of the gamma radiation.

Lou Ferrigno has reprised his role as the Hulk from the original 1970s television series, where he was known for his distinctive roar and massive physique. Ferrigno's appearance in the series is a nostalgic nod to the original series that captured the hearts of viewers around the world.

Neal McDonough delivers an outstanding performance as Dr. Bruce Banner. He plays the character with the right amount of intelligence, compassion and inner turmoil that is required to portray the complex personality of a scientist struggling to contain a powerful monster within.

Luke Perry's portrayal of Rick Jones, the Hulk's sidekick, is also noteworthy. Perry brings a youthful energy to the character and has a great chemistry with McDonough. The dynamic between the two characters is one of the highlights of the show.

Genie Francis plays Betty Ross, Banner's love interest, and the daughter of his nemesis, General Ross. Francis plays her character with empathy and emotional depth, bringing a sense of realism to the show.

The Incredible Hulk series adopts a darker tone than the original series, which was more light-hearted and campy. The show incorporates more serious themes such as loss, grief and trauma, making it more mature and relatable to a modern audience.

The visual effects used to bring the Hulk to life are impressive, and the transformation scenes are top-notch. The show blends CGI with practical effects seamlessly, creating a believable and terrifying creature that is frightening to behold.

Each episode follows Banner as he tries to control the Hulk, who is constantly being hunted by the military. Along with this, he and his small group of friends attempt to cure him while helping others in need. The stories range from medical malpractice, corporate greed, domestic abuse, and supernatural elements, offering a rich variety to the show's character arcs.

Overall, The Incredible Hulk is a captivating and exciting series that is a must-watch for fans of a good superhero story. The amazing performances by the cast, the powerful storytelling, and the incredible visual effects make this show a true masterpiece.
