I have read every book I can find on Harry Houdini. He was, since I was 7 years old, my hero. Someone who came from so little to obtain so much was just a great story. I have little doubt, Mr. Houdini would agree, when this show was made, magic was getting old and stagnant.
Some traditions are, to this day, hundreds if not thousands of years later, still observed. Others, are outdated and so absurd, we question our sanity that we ever followed them and exercised them for so long. Now, another tradition falls to the weight of history. The so-called "magicians code". An out of date concept which was used to create a sort of secret society meant only for the special, actually it was used to prevent people from competing with other magicians. The "CLAIM" magicians never reveal their secret is an absolute B. S. as clearly demonstrated by the prolific Magic Books these so-called SECRET KEEPERS sell to anyone that will buy.
This show was LONG overdue and will FORCE all those "HACKS" using 100-year-old tricks to up their game and maybe create some of their OWN new and exciting tricks and illusions. When I say "HACKS" you know who I am talking about, RIGHT CRISS?
