Which version of The Hulk did you like best? (Lou Ferrigno's or one of the movie versions)
And who do you think played the best Bruce Banner? (Bill Bixby, Eric Bana, Edward Norton or Mark Ruffalo)
For me, the best Hulk was the original Hulk, Lou Ferrigno. I can see some people disliking his Hulk because it was a departure from the comic book version, but his Hulk was something the movie versions weren't, legitimitely scary. When I watched the TV show as a kid, I used to hide behind my couch or exit the room whenever David Banner turned into The Hulk cause I was frightened by his Hulk, unless I was watching it with my siblings then I stuck around, so I wouldn't let them know I was scared. I'm not a fan of the CGI Hulk's although I know they are closer to the comic book version's appearance. I thought the TV show did a better job with Hulk's look and metamorphosis, Ferrigno's Hulk was more realistic. I also think he was better than the movie versions when it came to showing emotions.
Here's a cute scene where he picks up a bunny and strokes it, making him smile and taking his anger away, turning him back into Bruce.

And another scene where he rescues this women and she tries to protect him by telling him to hide in a bush, but he doesn't understand at first and just looks at her with a poor confused look on his face, before walking away into the bushes with his head down, like his heart has just been broken.

As for Bruce Banner, again The Incredible Hulk version played by Bill Bixby is my favourite. His story on the TV show was a sad one, faking his death and having to travel to different cities in every episode, trying to find a cure, while Jack McGee is after his Hulk. Bixby with his superb acting, makes you take pity and feel so sorry for his Bruce Banner, especially with the iconic "lonely man walking away" ending that plays to the sad piano music.
