Trivia
The last act of this two hour movie takes place during a hurricane. Because the filmmakers knew they were going to incorporate grainy stock footage of actual bad weather, they purposely degraded the new footage of David, Carolyn and the Hulk to make it match the stock.

Goofs
When David returns from shopping, he finds the report papers scattered on the floor, however they are spread out in an organized way instead of falling randomly and out of order.

Quotes
Dr. David Bruce Banner: I once heard a story about a man being chased by a tiger. He came to a cliff. He fell, but he grabbed a branch, and he just hung there, just out of reach of the tiger. And he looked down. You know what he saw? Another Tiger. Waiting for him to drop. And then he felt that the branch he was clinging to was coming out of the cliff by the roots. Now while all this was happening, he noticed something: he noticed, growing in a cleft bedside him, a single wild strawberry. And with his free hand he reached out and picked it. And he ate it. And he tought to himself: what a wonderful strawberry.
Dr. Caroline Fields: Oh God. I love you David.
Dr. David Bruce Banner: I love you, Caroline.

Domestic Hulk

David Banner (Bixby) finds himself enamoured by the vulnerable Mariette Hartley in this two-part episode, whose terminally ill and ultimately destined to leave him alone, but perhaps not before discovering the antidote to this affliction. The Hulk is depicted more as the inner demon metaphor in this episode, a character-flaw rather than a muscle-bound green behemoth, and Hartley is sensitive and caring toward her troubled partner, seeking to heal his curse, while struggling with her own debilitation.

Hartley certainly brings a prestige to proceedings and there's some great Hulk moments here (the scene in which he destroys the mezzanine level of a playboy shack while the studs and their intoxicated party guest cower in the corner is a cracker), but it's a love story wrapped in the green enigma, so may not be every Hulk fan's cup of green tea.
