Phenome-nobody cares.

This is the "finals." Not the final show, unfortunately; that's next week. The girl and the guy with the spiky blond hair are performing first. There's a third "guaranteed" contestant (I don' tknow what that means) who will be announced later in the show. I'm guessing it'll be Guy Bavli.

The girl did a birthday and name revelation. The birthday was revealed by selecting a birthstone. The name was revealed in a Polaroid. It was not awful, but not very entertaining.

The guy ("Mike") did a prediction. The three celebrity guests spray painting things, then they were revealed both in words and in the form of a motorcycle. Then for the stinger, the license plate on the motorcycle was the same number as one generated by three audience members. It was actually original and he has a good personality.

The last "guaranteed" spot (I still don't know what that means) when to... not Guy Bavli. Ah, I see. The remaining two get to "face off" for a spot in the finals, and only Criss and Uri get to pick which will stay.

Ugh. There was seriously an astrology commercial.

The third contestant was Aaron Raven. He kind of looks like a young, not as awesome Max Maven. he's the one with the "guaranteed" spot. He was blindfolded. He then avoided stepping into a thing full of broken glass, razor blades and scorpions before avoiding falling on a bed of nails. It was... not death defying in any way.

Guy Bavli performed fourth. He bent silverware. Uri looked kind of pissed. (Bavli, remember, does not claim to have real super powers. Unlike Uri, who made his name by fucking up some flatware. Why is bending silverware so impressive to people?) Then he threw in an interesting twist and bent a pole with a stop sign on the end, which is like a big fork except with better leverage. It was not Banachek, but it was not bad. (Banachek, incidentally, is a consultant on Phenomenon.)

Gerry McCambridge performed last. He's the guy who did the paint ball trick last week. I like him. He laid out a bunch of cards. The one chosen by the celebrity assistant was the only one with anything written on the back. It was also a postcard for Paris, and the second celebrity assistant had drawn a picture of the Eiffel Tower. The stinger was that a bunch of cards drawn on by audience members, when combined all stadium style, also had a picture of the Eiffel tower.

Guy Bavli gets to move on. That's the show.

I think I'm going to go download Derren Brown's scifi show off of iTunes (That's right. Check it out.) to see some really good magic. Peace.
