Delete[edit]

  1. Hasn't been updated since 2007. Nothing about the article tells us why it is missional, shows about people performing magic tricks isn't enough to establish missionality otherwise we'd have pages on The Carbonaro Effect and Fool Us. It's not helped by the page just being a recap, and for only two episodes no less. Hell, I'm not sure if it even is enough to count as that, since I still have no idea what is going on in the show besides people doing magic tricks. Is there some kind of other hook here? If not, easy delete. Plutocow (talk) 06:40, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
  2. Apparently it was even stinker of a show for the credulous, "Thankfully this will never see the light of day on DVD. If you missed it, be happy you did."[1] Bongolian (talk) 07:58, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
  3. Show was canceled in 2008, doesn't seem interesting based on what I've seen from a quick Googling. (Although the apparent screaming match between Criss Angel and "paranormalist" Jim Callahan in episode two sounds pretty funny.)

  4. Even though it features some crank purveyors, this show appears be a nothing burger. Usually the real missional ones are those that have enough success to start fooling its fans into the woo rabbit hole, and its pretty clear nobody gives a rat's ass about this show, not even as meme material. And like said already, nobody's properly updated this shite since 2007 anyway. -- DangerousTomaccoUser (talk) 14:53, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
  5. It's a listicle with no citations and no indication of why anyone should give a shit about it. It looks like an unfinished draft. From what I can gather, it's another stupid reality television/game show hybrid that was mercifully canceled after a single season. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 16:41, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

  1. Okay, I looked up the Criss Angel vs Jim Callahan incident and it's actually extremely funny. If nothing else, please watch this video:
