You know, that tv-show with Penn & Teller, what do you think of it?

Are they full of it, or good at what they do?


Personally i love the show, not saying they speak the truth everytime,
but have seen quite a few good points there

They are rather crass, though sometimes they have some good material.

Wow, it showed up again, thought i was the only wiewer there for a moment
Yes they can be crass, thats for sure - but i like the way they cut straight
through to some things

I've only seen some of them on youtube. Their feature on the PETA and the terrorists groups PETA support was interesting. I love animals myself, but not more than people.

Dihydrogen Monoxide was a good feature too.

Most of Penn & Teller's BS episodes are full off pseudo-sceptisism and ad hominem, allthough some of the episodes (take for instance the one about death penalty) are quite good.

they make a lot of good points and they're very entertaining. i don't always agree with what they say, and they occasionally use the same tactics as the people they're featuring, but overall i find it entertaining.

I tend to find what they (or Penn at least) have to say fair and well researched. There is a lot of BS out there and it is great to have someone point it out...and entertain too.
Another nice thing about them is that they don't call people stupid for believing in a fraud.

I've only seen a couple episodes, we rented them from Blockbuster and they were just called "BS" on the box ;D

I thought they were pretty cool...I've always liked P&T.
