Mentalist Uri Geller and "mindfreaking" illusionist Criss Angel put 10 carefully screened contestants through a series of demonstrations in a search to find the next world-class professional mentalist. In each episode, the contestants demonstrate their talents before a series of celebrity guests and a studio audience. Geller and Angel assess the performances each week, but the ultimate winner of the $250,000 cash prize is selected by the home viewing audience.
