WGN Channel 9 - "Season's Greetings From The Hulk" (Long Promo, 1981)
Views: 3333
Here's a goofy holiday greeting/promo featuring The Incredible Hulk running around Chicago holding a giant WGN ball (ornament?). I guess this was supposed to promo the fact that WGN was getting re-runs of the Incredible Hulk show soon.
Playing the part of the Incredible Hulk is Bob Foal.

Produced by Field Communications Corporation. (I still say that ending voiceover sounds like George Takei of ...

Views: 3567
At long last, here is the different version of the opening to Tales of the Unexpected, the creepy British anthology show, when it was syndicated to America in the late-seventies to early eighties.
