    Garbage

    "America's Psychic Challenge" is a reality TV show that claims to test the abilities of self-proclaimed psychics. However, after watching the show, I found it to be utterly unconvincing and, frankly, a waste of time.

    The supposed "psychics" on the show appear to rely entirely on guesswork and vague statements that could apply to almost anyone. Their "predictions" and "readings" are often so general that they could be interpreted to fit a wide range of scenarios. When they do make specific claims, they frequently miss the mark entirely.

    In my opinion, "America's Psychic Challenge" does more to disprove the existence of psychic powers than to validate them. The contestants' frequent misses and reliance on cold reading techniques demonstrate that there's no real supernatural ability at play. Instead, the show seems to exploit people's desire to believe in the extraordinary, offering entertainment value at the cost of promoting pseudoscience.

    I found "America's Psychic Challenge" to be a disappointing and misleading show that fails to provide any credible evidence for psychic abilities. Viewers would be better served by programs that promote critical thinking and scientific understanding rather than this exercise in wishful thinking.

    Greatness- Very bad in the best possible way!

    This so reminds me of a show that would have aired on cable access TV in Austin in the early '90s. (Yes, I know it's from 2007.) Also shares some production vibes of early America's Most Wanted if you took out the re-enactments.

    Very bad in the best possible way. Super low budget and unproduced. It's even better when they're wrong because they have to try and explain what went wrong. It's fantastic!

    Voodoo Jackie from New Orleans is nuts and high entertainment. She's my favorite contestant. Think I'll look her up next time I visit Nola. Most of them shine in their own ways. They are all characters.

    If you assume a few of them aren't being fed information off screen at each challenge, some of them get a lot right but that's entirely beside the point for me. So glad I happened upon it. I'm just disappointed that there's only one season.

    FYI- There's one semifinal show missing and the editing around the original commercial breaks is really bad in the later episodes. I feel like I'm missing out on some quality cheesiness.

    A Fun Show!

    I just finished watching the series and I found it very enjoyable. I like the way that they take separate groups of people to take on challenges and then choose the two highest scorers to go on to semi-finals while the others are eliminated. I enjoyed the different challenges that they had placed before each person and it was fun to watch to see how well they did. I especially appreciated the crime scene challenges. I was pleased with who the of the season was, and I certainly hope that they consider coming out with another season of this even though it's been several years. Maybe a reboot would be good?
