I watched it as a kid when it originally aired. Decent show for its time period (1970's) obviously a little lacking today.
Not a show I would binge watch, I have watched some of the hulk-outs on YouTube for nostalgia sake.

There was a moral to that series. Watch out for the Gamma radiation!

I always figured the moral was don't make Dr. Banner angry. You won't like it when he gets angry.

Sad end of Bill Bixby (1934-1993), who died from prostate cancer (the monster within) which spread from his man parts to the rest of him.
Good fighting spirit within this guy, just like that Banner guy he portrayed onscreen.
Ironically, at first his cancer treatment had shown promising results through radiotherapy, using a powerful radio-medicine tool called the "Gamma Knife" which makes use of the highest-energy radiation known
-- the infamous Gamma Radiation.
But later the cancer monster came back, and meanwhile the cancer treatments were also weakening his body. So he died.
Each presented its own danger to him, so he was totally f****ed in the end -- stuck between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, both closing in.
So maybe there's another moral to the story -- even if you become the biggest expert onscreen at suffering from a monster within and gamma radiation at the same time, they may still later both show up in real life to tag-team you and clobber you.
