Bill Bixby and Brenda Benet had been married...it's a long story - they later broke up, but out of that marriage had a little boy, who one day took ill and died from a stomach ailment, & Brenda committed suicide.

[Lordismyportion]

Bill and Brenda divorced in 1980. Their six year-old son Christopher, died of complications of a throat infection in 1981. Brenda committed suicide the following year.

[Lordismyportion]

She committed suicide...shot herself in the head. Very tragic.

[atisaseret]

OK - I stand corrected about what the Boy died of - but he did indeed suffer from stomach problems. And I never stated that they were married when Brenda killed herself - I said - they HAD been married.

My elaboration is for the benefit of those who are not aware of the facts.

her dad grew up watching the show in the

70's and how he learned very valuable lessons

in compassion and sentimentalism.

Hey, love the video. I actually reponded with a video I did myself. It might not be your cup of tea; it's a little heavy. Great job on this video, makes me sad :(

[elspings]

Great vid, well done AGAIN!

It's sad how good chemistry can go bad! Such tragic lives, yet both so talented.

More Bix vid's please, could we maybe have happy ones? XX

@Juliaflo - well, be that as it may - it was reported at the time that it was due to stomach complications, but I stand corrected. See my comment below from 2 YEARS AGO.

@atisaseret Actually, Bill Bixby's son died from a throat infection called epiglottitis.

This is great editing, to capture the feelings of the Incredible Hulk - as it was on an older television series - the emotion of the character, his love interest, the beat, and how it happened are all present - its amazing.... I'm glad to have seen and shared this with people - and Its very moving. Utilizing the actor Bill Bixby allow those of us who are older to identify with our dads or all American males who make mistakes and deal with burden of pressure in their lives and our own. This is :)

@mitch6225 'Search'...? Wasn't that a short lived Hugh O'Brian(& Doug McClure...) show about operatives of an organization called 'PROBE'?

[fucheduck]

no one puts so much soul into acting like B.B./B.B.

This is such a touching tribute and the song so appropriate. I knew the story of Bill Bixby's ex-wife but knew very little about her. After I saw this tribute I watched the referenced episode of The Hulk 3xs and was struck by the subject matter in the story line and what ultimately happened with Brenda Benet..she was so beautiful. Bill Bixby is a man I've always admired and remains the best Incredible Hulk every. Thank you Lordismyportion for this.
