I believe that Penn and Teller have stated in several of their shows that they realize the bias and non-objective status of some of their material. Just goes to prove that as hosts of their own show, they have the freedom to call anything B.S. that they want to.Obviously, the main purpose of the show is not to inform the audience of everything they THINK is B.S. But with some things, objectivity can't prove anything, no matter how clean it is (objectivity or not, religion isn't going away).So, I find it a bit harsh to expel this show due to some, repeat, some bias, when I think it would be literally impossible to go on for seven seasons without some of it. Penn and Teller tell us to expect it - so expect it.

This is one of the most brutally honest, entertaining shows i've seen in a long time. Penn is just hilarious, i constantly find myself laughing out loud from his comments. Teller is entertaining as he could be, being silent. With each episode, Penn & Teller delve in to the many contradictions of our society. Granted, they do overdo it just a tad in their interviews by making the subject look preposterous, but it is definitely entertaining enough to bear. While some episodes i might not agree with, they portray a different facet of it which i never thought of. Overall this show is great. I would give 4 out of 5 stars easily

The magicians, Penn and Teller, are very Libertarian in their views and because of this, their political bent is towards smaller government, less intrusive laws and a willingness to attack both Conservatives and Liberals alike. I love this Showtime series--even though occasionally it offends me. That's because 99% of the TV shows out there never think to question much of anything--even though "common knowledge" is often 100% wrong because,...well...people are stupid! As of this date, the show has five seasons behind it and they have attacked many "sacred cows"--such as asserting that recycling is usually a BAD thing, pornography and nudity is GOOD, being fat isn't much of a health risk and religion is for idiots. While I wouldn't agree with them about their views on religion and a few other things, I love that they actually dare to address the topics and are fully exercising their first amendment rights to free speech. Plus, when I see that they are offending people for whom I have little respect, I can't help but shout "amen"! The style of the show is unique because it is a combination of a documentary, humor and crassness (with a heaping spoonful of obscenities). While I can ignore all the profanity (especially the thousands of "f-words") and I can ignore all the gratuitous nudity (which, after all, fits in with the team's Libertarian bent), I really wish they had toned this down and chosen a different title for the show because I would love to be able to show these episodes to the high school teachers I teach. Unfortunately, because of the show's style, that will never happen--or, I'll show an episode and just wait to be fired! Aside from kids, this show SHOULD be watched by everyone. Sure, it's bound to offend you--but it will also make you think and shock you out of complacency. While in the end you may not be convinced (in a couple episodes, I think their logic wasn't quite correct--though usually they were dead on target), you can't help but think and re-assess what you think and why. It's just too bad that practically NOTHING on TV today does that other than PENN & TELLER: BULLSHIT!.

I used the hypnotherapist Kyrah Malan, when she was in Sacramento and got great results with my goals. I went back to her for other goals and it always worked for me. I know it was more than just voodoo because I had tried to loose weight for 20 years before then and nothing had ever worked. She was always really nice and professional. I know that she works on a donation basis and does a lot of charity work not charging people for her services when she feels they really need the help and couldn't otherwise get it. When I found this site and watched the clip I told my friend (who had told me about Kyrah) about this show and she said NONE of the women in the breast enlargement study had to pay a dime. Penn & Teller made it look like they had to pay money. She also said the woman who didn't notice any difference never attended any of the sessions or did the things she was supposed to. I bet they edited the program to make her look bad and so they could make fun of her. If someone is a fake their fair game, but why find a hypnotist who is good and then try to make them look bad? In my eyes that makes them (P&T) the liars and fakes.
