I've been a Hulk fan since 1971 or so. I've seen comics, movies and TV shows starring one of my all-time favourite characters in a number of different takes - Smart Hulk, dumb Hulk, 1/2 Hulk, etc. Here we see a semi-smart Hulk without much Banner. Really, it seems to be an updated recreation of the 1990's Hulk cartoon right down to the choppy visuals and childish dialogue.

Let's be clear - Lou Ferrigno was the best, and only live Hulk. (The rest are digitized) The cartoon, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, was the best cartoon version of the Hulk and as well as the rest of the Avengers. The Hulk movies and the Avengers were fine for their time except the Hulk actually talks a lot and he says very little in those movies so the characterizations are slightly off. True, I did like Mark Ruffalo's Hulk better than his Banner but, again, too little dialogue. To rank them I would say that Eric Bana's Banner was good but too buff. Mark Ruffalo was better since he's shorter but he's a better Hulk. Finally, Ed Norton's was the best ever since he looks just like Banner should look and act. Better even than Bill Bixby's.

Everything else done since has one purpose and that is to sell children's merchandise. Which brings us to this cartoon. With the new "Avenger's Assemble" Marvel/Disney has yet again rebooted the Avengers/Hulk franchises. They took interesting characterizations and clear story lines and tossed them out the window for fun in the sun cheese. It's like they are making a sandwich by just picking things out of the fridge that should go together like beef and tomatoes and mayo but didn't cook the beef or slice the tomatoes or spread the mayo like they did in Avengers EMH. It's SuperHero Squad but with slightly more mature visuals. I also dislike the "reality show" popups during the show. Give us a cartoon not a reality show take off, please. What's interesting is that the Avengers: EMH really was more faithful to the Hulk comics than this Hulk show will ever be. Sure, they have great voice actors doing the show. Fred Tatasciore is a great Hulk voice and the rest of the cast are an all-star lineup to be sure. I'm just sorry the dialogue and story lines are so weak. It's like they don't even respect the children enough to give them something meatier than the choppy animation and stop sequences that constantly annoy the viewer because they think children can't appreciate continuity in a storyline. I'm almost sorry Disney bought Marvel after seeing this debacle. I almost wonder if someone slipped something into Kevin Feige's food and then made him watch episode after episode of this and Avenger's Assembly until he finally broke and OKed it ...

Here's my million dollar idea for Disney to bank on - Bring back Earth's Mightiest Heroes and truly honor the late director Boyd Kirkland's memory! Then sell the DVDs one season at a time instead of breaking them up into partial seasons no one wants to buy. I'm just sayin' ...

I really enjoyed this show when it used to be on the TV. But looking back it wasn't really that good to be honest.

I am going to be honest I actually like all of Disney's Marvel animated shows. But looking back at this I think this is probably the weakest.

The reason why I am giving it a 6 is because at least it's not as bad as Teen Titans Go! but still not the best hulk show I have watched. However the stories are pretty dumb down.

But the voice actors are good.

There are some positive things about this series. The show uses characters and villains which have rarely been seen in other cartoons. The show has more of a story line than the Hulk getting mad and saving the day, and there is just the Intelligent Hulk, which means no "Hulk Smash" every 5 minutes. Aside from that, there are numerous problems with the show. There is no character development or attempt to capture the essence of that character. Just a half hour of catch phrases and pointless battles. Although, hearing Seth Green as Rick Jones is probably the only upside to the show. Aside from that, it's watchable, but not much else.

I'm not too familiar with Bruce Banner/The Hulk, I've seen both movies (and yes, I didn't mind them) and know just the basics. The main reason I watched this was because the Avengers Assemble turned out so good that I thought I'd give it a try.

This too was a really good show.

There is no Bruce Banner in this, just all Hulk. It also doesn't seem to be the same Hulk as the one in Avengers Assemble.

I had absolutely no idea that the Red Hulk was General Ross and after a little research even found out that his daughter and Bruce Banners love interest, Betty Ross, eventually is the Red She-Hulk.

In addition to The Hulk and Red Hulk; She-Hulk, A-Bomb and Skaar, are actually a pretty good team, but not without their moments.

Like Avengers Assemble, a lot more can be done in this series than in a movie, there is no more explaining who he is, how he got to be the way he is and it just gets on with the story of the show.

It also included appearances but other Marvel superheroes and villains including Spider-Man, The Thing, The Collector, Doctor Strange and The Guardians of the Galaxy.

While I didn't enjoy it, as much as Avengers Assemble, it still would be something I would watch randomly and even tune into the second season.

I recently started watching this show on Netflix and have been enjoying it. I think people are attacking it because it is not just a mindless Hulk full of rage. The point of this show is to show Hulk as a hero. It is a lot better than Avengers 1999-2000 or Wolverine and the X-Men. If you enjoy Ultimate Spider-man you will enjoy this title also. It has all the same fun and offbeat humor of Ultimate Spider-man and takes place in the same universe. I also recommend it to fans of Seth Green and Eliza Dushku. Seth Green is really fun as Rick Jones/A-Bomb. Eliza Dushku is perfect as She-Hulk. I think people should definitely give this show a chance.

What do you picture in your mind when you think of the Hulk?

If you imagined a giant green rage monster, then you, sir, are an idiot.

If you pictured the Hulk being a well spoken fatherly figure, flying spaceships, futuristic cars, and shooting laser weapons from his wrist, and talking about his feelings in a video confessional for a blog, then you are a winner!

Reread the previous paragraph.

Read it again.

Words cant describe how awful this show is. Its almost as if the writers were challenged to cram the most non-Hulkish ideas into a show for a bet... And they succeeded. I don't know if they should be congratulated or executed for crimes against television.

Hulk and the Agents of Smash is a sadly misunderstood show. Some might criticize it for its lack of a central plot, but that would actually ruin this show. Like most kid shows out today, this is mostly not a sequential story that builds upon itself to for an intricate plot. It's a funny cartoon about superheroes who have been left out a lot from the Marvel franchise living together as room-mates trying to save the world. The Hulks are on a mission to be accepted by a world that fears their power, with a bunch of gags and cameos along the way. It's unfair to criticize the show for not having a complicated story when it was never meant to have one. This show is aimed to entertain young children and give them a taste of the Marvel Universe, in a quirky, fresh way. Haven't you noticed all of A-Bomb's cameras? It's a reality show, with super strong super heroes! I think it's a breath of fresh air compared to the milked-to-death Avengers franchise. And don't get me started on how cliché and overdone Spiderman is. Relax and enjoy the hilarity!

More proof that Disney is destroying the Marvel brand. They are turning Marvel into a complete joke. Goofiness abounds. There is nothing serious about this series. There is very little respect paid to the history of Hulk comics. It is obvious that the corporate execs running Disney only think that Marvel cartoon shows should be for kids 10 and under. There is nothing intelligent in the show, and the fighting is so unrealistic and undramatic that it will bore you to sleep. The creators of this show have completely sold out the Marvel Universe. Unfortunately the best Hulk cartoon is still the one from the 1960s--which is a sad statement. After watching a full episode of this one you will want to SMASH alright--SMASH the Disney corporate sellouts who are pumping out this garbage.

I saw this series ONCE....but when you consider that it's broadcast ONLY once a week early on a Sunday morning, even Disney XD doesn't seem to have much confidence in it. I guess it's being produced with hopes of making some cash via DVD sales. I found this series by accident and have seen very little publicity about it. The one episode that I saw showed fairly limited animation and not very impressive scripting.....I hope this isn't an indication of what we can expect from future Disney/Marvel collaborations! It's difficult to write 10 lines about a series that's available on such a limited basis. I'd like to see a few more episodes so that my judgment can be based on a larger sample size but like most people, I like to sleep in a bit on a Sunday morning and haven't been able to catch any others yet.

It's a fun show with diverse characters. It doesn't take itself too seriously and you'll see that for yourself. It's got elements of an older 70's comic cartoon in the beginning with Seth Green's character but then evolves into a better more unique action cartoon that allows you to relate to the characters on a personal level. Whereas most portrayals of Hulk show him as a grunting monster that cannot think and only fights bad guys because he's been trained to by his team of avengers. This cartoon shows hulks fighting with internal conflict along with struggles of his team all while dealing with big time marvel villains. So far it hasn't wasted time with episode after episode of cliffhangers, it gets right to the point and the action and animation looks good for what it needs to be. I give it a 9 because I'm a huge marvel fan and an adult or your kids could enjoy this just the same.

My one critique of this show is that Hulk (being the leader of the team) does act a little .. Motherly sometimes? A lot of people know him as this drooling monster. It gives him human traits without having to turn into Bruce Banner to debate those things as a human.

The show has action, humor, emotion, cameos from big hitter marvel characters and ones that aren't as appreciated in the MCU or surrounding shows they air. I like it and I hope they make a 3rd season!

The basic plot is what you would get a team of marvel heroes facing galactic villains see the biggest problem this show could of been a templet for a fantastic 4 series but we get the hulk family in it place I will say that is what drags this series down but the chactors are a lack of something of archetype's not the heroes that comic book fans would know but what I like to say most of the episodes could be expanded to 2 parters which again the fast pace speed for this series hold it down with out developing its heroes and the plot points but I do fell like the only chactors that has developing is hulk and not showcasing the other heroes again if series can't handel good story telling I don't think this series would last any longer with that all said I will end this review with this not only bad shows can only try hard if there not trying any hard without quality then quantine

A really great & funny show! I really liked all the humorous scenes, the characters were great and had a lot of good chemistry! The storyline is also so cool!

Yet again another "masterpiece" produced by Marvel/Disney! No wonder it didnt get more than 2 seasons. In fact even 2 season for this dumpster fire of a show is too much! The plot is dumb, the stories are lacking, the characters suck and overall everything about this show sucks! There really isnt anything good about this show. Just another quick cash grab for Marvel/Disney. They didnt put any passion into the show and it really shows. Over the years Marvel have produced plenty of stupid cartoons but this one takes the cake! They were bad before Disney bought them and after they got bought, things got even worse for them. Long story short - Dont waste your time on this bland and boring cartoon.

Show is put together by Paul Dini Co- creator of Batman The Animated Series, great voice cast and storys all told within the ultimate hulk universe.mind I was a fan of the 90's cartoon so cartoons aren't as hardcore as they used to be but this has more action and good dialogue between the cast only problem is the 4th wall like Spider man but this is clever about it they're not deadpool knowing they are a cartoon, the cameras follow them and is broadcast online to show they're still human. Minus the 4th wall jokes which are quick and don't impede on the action. You have good characters represented well good villain like The leader as the main protagonist but also get story with The Abomination and The Red Hulk origins, Dormamu,Sauron, . We get Dr.Doom & galactus as well switching off his herald each appearance. we get more famous rogues with good set ups and team ups. doctor strange,a good fantastic 4 makes u wish they had there own series, Blade and his commandos and the list goes on. This show suffers the stigma of being in the universe of that terrible spider man show but is a separate show with good comic adapted characters, good story and the comedy is usually based of A-Bomb being seth green well being seth green so it could have been worse the comedy Is very light on the show which makes it enjoyable to watch. Or the hulk and sometimes the gang pulling hijinks on Red Hulk who deserves it for all the years of being a jerk to hulk ,it's torture he has to live with everyday Hulk Out.

I liked the character designs and the idea of the show's story, but there are some parts where some characters are too much of goody-two-shoes.
