Season 1 should have been released in it's entirity 2 years ago instead of that dumb "best of" box set

Don't make me angry again Universal. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry

About time! The best of box set was dumb. This should have been done years ago, but am glad it's finally getting done.

Glad I passed on the best of set. I'll be getting season 1 on release day.

Universal? TV on DVD? DVD-18 discs...uh-oh. Think I'll pass.

I'll wait until we get it here in r2, on sensible DVD-9 discs that actually play properly.

Yeah I've been waiting for this for years. I bought the best of box and the singles. It'll be nice to have them in season sets now. Too Universal long enough!

Season sets of The Incredible Hulk are believed to be dead, and they must let the world think that they are dead...

I'll be buying.

Oh ya! This is great news.

I hope Universal will release this set with a "lenticular" cover. If there ever was a title that it would be perfect for, this would be it. I have posted a cover design I created at:

It would be cool holding the cover and watching Bixby "transform" into The Hulk -- and back again. A lenticular cover would be so appropriate for this show, rather than just a packaging gimmick.

I e-mailed the cover to HULK creator Kenneth Johnson. The good news: Kenny replied minutes later saying he thinks the cover is cool. The bad news: when asked if he's involved with the set, he said "I have offered my services (to Universal), but they have yet to respond".

Typical Universal. Hopefully, there's still time for Kenny -- and Lou Ferrigno -- to become involved. Universal really needs to be bombarded with e-mails and letters encouraging them to make this a great release.

Same here.

Release date is July 18.

DDD now has this for preorder---7/18/06. Same day as Amazing Stories.

Do any of these episodes overlap with the Best Of set? I'm trying to decide if I want to sell it now or not.

Depending on how well the first season set sells and Universal's willingness to continue to the rest of the season sets, you might want to hold on to the best-of collection for now. Some of my favorite episodes, like "Prometheus" and "The First" are from the fourth season.

The only episode from the first season on the best-of set is "747."

Agreed. Since the first season was only ten episodes, plus the two pilots, there was a lesser chance for duplication. I'm hanging on to my Ultimate set until all its episodes are available in regular season sets -- assuming Universal releases them all.

Looks like Universal finally may be getting the picture.
