Well Tim, how about the negative comments Criss mentioned about JJ's performance.

Im going to have to say that was setup....
What didn't make sense is all of a sudden Criss challenges Jim and Uri to name whats in an envelope. My question is, WHY NOW? Why during jims experience. Why not any other mentalist on the show. It began its built up by being announced how controversial Jim is! Funny thing is, the only people who will understand what just took place were the audience members who didn't hear the bleeps, and us mentalists/magicians. Jim mentioned how he uses camera tricks, but was bleeped out. .... and then of course Angel plugs himself and his "raising the bar in magic" speach. Well, he didn't say "in magic", so maybe he meant in "video editing." No Live TV = Camera Tricks as Camera Tricks = Criss Angel therefore Criss Angel = No Live TV....LOL Great performances...Angel is still a joke! isn't it strange how they have Angel right there, yet he never performs a thing. No wait.. that was his performance, another fake act. And if my opinion as a mentalist about the fight says nothing.... the 3 laymen sitting next to me started yelling fake before I even opened my mouth. |

J ack just increased his marketability big time. And I am not talking about his performance either. The incident with the biggest name in magic will only make J ack be remembered long after the performance portion has ended.
Win or lose, J ack has already won. You are correct videokideo but is started earlier this week with CA's comments about exposing fakes. Set the stage for sure.

It was NOT staged. Angel called out BOTH JIM AND GELLER. Jim saved Geller from having to confront Angel by doing it first. Jim will only be pushed so far. Those of us who know him know that's TRUE!
Angel tried to set a "WORK A MIRACLE NOW!" scam on both URI and JIM. Did you notice how the crowd BOO'ed Criss when he mentioned Jim.....That's a good indication on where the public puts their favor!

I thought that Jim's performance was at least unique for the show. A Tad overdone for television, would've probably come off much more believable on stage in a live theater show. Perhaps revelation of the object was anti-climactic after the histrionics of the trance. The same performance leading to a more important ending would have been a hit for me.
It'll be interesting to hear what was really said behind the bleeps. That's ALL lay people will remember from this show tomorrow. I'll bet the other competitors are gritting their teeth. - entity

About the laypeople.. true laypeople didn't get it. The 3 sitting with me didn't understand what the fight was about, or anything Jim tried to get acrossed to the people.
They understood Criss called Jim out... but they never even came close to recognizing that jim questioned criss's ability. Not trying to argue, but I really don't think the laymen understood nor cared about the situation. Once again, we care because we know criss's credibility.. laymen don't. |

My Fiance' wants me to get off of the computer so she can vote for Jim...I suggest we all do the same.
Great Show....Much better than last weeks since Criss wasn't allowed to P**s all over it like last week (He was virtually silent for the first 40 minutes..Good move for NBC). Criss is lucky Jim didn't throttle him.

I have to disagree with you Dynamike. With all of the exploitative "reality" shows clogging the airwaves, I don't see how anyone can think that Jim and Criss' spat is going to do anything but increase ratings. Sure, it's sad that our country thrives on exploitation, drama, and negativity in our television shows. But it is what it is, and this "fight" will be the thing that most people who watched the show will remember. Personally, I think that's a bit of a shame (well, not for Jim) because I thought there were some very solid performances tonight which were overshadowed by "the fight".

The show really did not need the fiasco this week IMO.
I thought Angela did really well. She really surprised me with her talented performance and stage prescence. Well done indeed!
