Um have you seen Jeff McBride’s mullet??
I’m sure he could sport a couple of “hair horns” without people batting an eye.

[...] or two items we wanted and walk out again? How about the prevalence of magic on TV with shows like Celebracadabra, showing how Celebrities can learn magic quickly? *Surely* that’s to blame for the downfall [...]

so i posted some criticism a few days ago and it is removed. haha. Now I have to repost it.

WHO CARES ABOUT MAX MAVENS HAIRSTYLE??? Talk about counter productive to the art of magic.

And, I’m sorry, but these are such D-List celebrities that I have to agree with the Variety review. Calling them celebrities is a bit of a stretch. Show doesn’t do anything but cheapen the art of magic.

Seriously people, have you seen the layman reactions to it? There is absolutely nothing wrong with this show.

A few days after the first episode, people were talking about it in my first history class. I preform magic for them a lot, but they were NOT saying “oh, so it’s that easy! Anyone can do it!”. They were saying “How the heck does [insert trick name here] work??? That was so cool!” Or “Wow they learned that fast? Cool!”.
I think your overreacting.

“If anyone can name a magician who could carry off that hairstyle as well as Max, I’ll buy them a beer (Courtesy of the Kim Wyatt school of beer bottle management)

And some magician’s wax.”

Is it true? Hehehehe. I’ll name it. In Indonesia, there is a popular magician (mentalist to be precise) that have the same hairstyle as Max Maven. It’s Deddy Corbuzier.

I thought it was a good 1st show and look forward to seeing the rest of it. The magic didn’t look cheap at all as one other person said.

It would be cool to see ellusionist put together another show after this one but this time in search of new talent in the world of Street and Stage Magic! You could start with 8-12 and then have the judges and audience vote also who will be sent home after each week!
