June 20, 2003. That was the release date of Ang Lee's The Hulk. Now, I didn't google release dates to find this out. I know this because at the time I was BEYOND excited. I counted down months, weeks, days until June 20, 2003. See, I'm a little biased. I'm a DIE HARD Hulk fan.

From his early days doing stand-up comedy -- appearing on Star Search and the groundbreaking HBO series Def Comedy Jam -- right up until 2008, Martin Lawrence has been making people laugh. Sure, his audience may have changed over the last 20 years, but he's still starring in #1 movies (look no further than last year's Wild Hogs).
There wasn't much in the way of good auditions last night, but the bad auditions are vastly unworthy of comment, and so I'll just introduce you to the gold ticket holders you may or may not catch a glimpse of in the Top 200.

We open this week with Lloyd Robertson's audition. Yes, that Lloyd Robertson. THE Lloyd Robertson. He gets a gold ticket.
Jakob Dylan Seeing Things (Amazon)
This is the first solo album from ex-Wallflowers frontman Jakob Dylan. It was produced and recorded by Rick Rubin in a home studio throughout 2007.
Very, very quickly, Greek wraps up its first season, starting in just a few minutes, and Dirty Jobs and Jon and Kate Plus Eight are new tonight, as well, airing at nine Eastern time. And my TCM pick is Broadway Melody of 1938, mostly because Eleanor Powell is fantastic. It also features Judy Garland in a very early role. It airs at six tomorrow morning.
