Perkins on the Incredible Hulk
It's nice to know there are other people out there who either remember Sheriff Lobo or are fans. I am a definite Sheriff Lobo fan and I remember watching it on Tuesday nights when I was a kid. It wasn't until I was 11 or 12 when it played with BJ and the Bear in syndication that I discovered the series was a spinoff of BJ and the Bear.
Oddly enough, my all time favorite TV show is the Incredible Hulk w/ Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno. 1 year before the pilot of BJ and the Bear aired on NBC,
Mills Watson appeared in the second pilot movie of the Hulk in November of 1977 before the Hulk became a series. He played the Sheriff of Everett County. And believe it or not, he was wearing the exact same or almost the same uniform that he would wear on Sheriff Lobo. He spoke in his regular voice and for the most part, he was a straight, serious version of Perkins. My little joke is, if Perkins had an identical twin brother somewhere, Lobo was probably kicking himself for not getting Perkins brother for his deputy and had to settle for Perkins himself.
I've heard that Sheriff Lobo is playing on a channel called RTN. I wish we had it. So far, I've only seen a couple of episodes. And I haven't even seen the Atlanta second season shows on there yet. Just the intro.
Cheers
