While doing chores around the house the other day, I generally leave the TV on as background noise. Well, I stumbled across some excellent noise when I saw that the Esquire Network was airing a day-long block of the old Incredible Hulk TV show. I can't tell you the last time that I saw any of these episodes and they were airing some of the ones I remembered liking the most.
There was that two-parter, I forget the actual set-up, but it had to do with meteorites, a blind woman, and the Hulk being captured and imprisoned deep underground in a military base (ala NORAD). McGee was there, sneaking into the base, trying to uncover secrets and where the Hulk was at.
The other one was, I think, another two-parter, where Banner encounters the old man scientist, who's able to turn into the mean, skinny Hulk. The ending was intense, where Banner had the cure, was about to administer it to the old man, causing the old man to freak out, turn green, and he ended up destroying the cure. Which, of course, made Banner angry so he freaked out. But it was just his cries of frustration over the loss of the cure as he changed that really made the scene more intense.
It brought back some good memories and I think the show still holds up well today. Also, I've met Lou Ferrigno once, at a con, HUGE man, yikes!

Aside trivia, Marvel Boy: name your favorite and least favorite house chores. (And, wouldn´t it be great to have the Flash or Doctor Fate´s powers while you´re at it....?) Magicallywise, in this case I chose Fate over Strange ´cause Fate, having been an agent of the Lords of ORDER during most of his career, would be more of a natural to impose order in an unruly household... .

Hm, favorite house chore, well, it's not inside the house technically, but I'd have to say mowing the yard. With the steady rumbling of the lawn mower engine and especially if it's a nice day outside, I find that it can get rather meditative in it's own way. (Of course, once finished, you have to slap the mower into 5th gear and take your well-deserved victory lap around the yard) Least favorite is easy, cleaning the cat's litter box. Ew. :lol: A Lord of Order would certainly be beneficial, but would Strange have to use any magic for I would think that Wong would handle most of the household chores in the Sanctum Santorum. That'd be a messy job though, not only doing the daily cleaning but then having to clean up any leftover demon ash, remove burn marks from the walls, making sure there's enough candles on hand for all the rituals, etc.
