Not in general. In the context of modern tv, particularly on the marvel side. The finale is she hulk complaining to marvel / Disney that the show was becoming a heap of generic spectacle garbage with a big superhero fight even though the premise of the show was light legal comedy. It’s a good observation. Marvel has flubbed the landing on almost every tv series even if the original premises and pilots were good. I don’t think they executed on the bit very well, but props for trying I guess. Edit: I don’t agree with it being better with a green woman though. It did benefit a lot from it clearly being the same actress in both forms. There’s a time and a place for practical effects. That wasn’t it.

> Edit: I don’t agree with it being better with a green woman though. It did benefit a lot from it clearly being the same actress in both forms. I think it should have been done with the same actress. A buff actress can be made to appear more or less buff with clever wardrobe, camera angles, lighting, etc. In some scenes you hide her muscles under loose clothing or flat lighting, and in other scenes you emphasize them. Forced perspective can make her look taller or shorter when needed. Playing with the focal length could change the apparent shape of her face as well. CGI muscles completely ruins the whole deal for me. At the very least they should have done the opposite; hired a buff actress and slimmed down her muscles with CGI when necessary; I think that would look less fake than what they did.

    TIH was a really good show, relatively realistic, and Bill Bixby/Lou Ferrigno yet to be topped. :-p
