    i'll say its contrived

    Lots of blinking lights to mystify you but no substance ...then jack mcgee just walks right into a classified area without challenge yet alone clearance ... but then, the big green man isn't realistic either so who cares right .. this is garbage in garbage out at best

    The Meteor

    David Banner(Bill Bixby) is fishing near a dam in a national forest when it opens suddenly, trapping a young woman that David rescues. Her name is Katie Maxwell(played by Laurie Prange) who lives in a nearby cabin that David accompanies her to, then discovering to his surprise that she is blind. By a cosmic coincidence, a meteor crashes nearby that emits a peculiar radiation the traps David in mid-transformation after an encounter with some bees. Alarmed at this condition, David and Katie both leave the meteor but are intercepted by a military team who end up capturing them both in a re-enforced dome... Exciting start to the fourth season is a real welcome change of pace, though the plot is quite contrived.

    • Trivia
      For the fourth season, a new version of the theme tune was composed. However, for the opening two-parter, Prometheus, the original music is used.
    • Goofs
      Around 26mins into the episode David has transformed into the 'Hulk' and he's curious about the crashed object/meteor, the Hulk throws a small tree to the left, you can clearly see a rope/line attached to the tree, which is obviously used to pull it away.
