This movie was actually intended to be a Pilot episode for a potential "Daredevil" TV series. Unfortunately though, just as they did with the potential "Thor" series, the executives at CBS did not want to be known as the "Superhero Network" and did not allow the TV show to be made.
This movie was actually intended to be a Pilot episode for a potential "Thor" TV series. The use of the hulk was more for ratings than telling another hulk story. The idea of pitting Hulk against another Marvel Comics hero had floated around the hulk set a bit before the original show's cancellation, but never happened. The producers of this movie thought this would be a great opportunity to make that idea come true and get enough ratings to get Thor his own series. In a way it was a "two-birds-one-stone" theory: Bringing back Hulk and continuing his story and making an all new adventure for him would certainly please and bring back Hulk fans plus let them be aware of Thor and see if they liked it the character enough to get the new series started. The plan worked and ratings were high enough to get a Thor series started plus make more Hulk movies in the future. Unfortunetly though, the executives at CBS did NOT want to be known as the "Superhero Network" (Obviously proved by the cancellation of other Marvel Comics' shows in the 70's. ex. Spider-Man, Flash, etc.) so the did not allow a Thor series to be made and thus, this is the only time The Mighty Thor or Donald Blake have appeared in the media, live-action.

Goof: During the fight between the two Hulks it is obvious that a stuntman is standing in for Lou Feringo when the bad Hulk throws him against the computer console.
Hulk and Lou Ferrigno are on stage staring at each other and you can see the old split screen between them and Hulk standing on a higher platform to look taller.
