C-list celebrities competing to become...magicians...
sadly, I was watching VH1 this past weekend and saw an advertisement for a show that looked like a bad Saturday Night Live sketch...so just had to check out the first episode...yikes...

At least now i know what C. Thomas Howell is up to these days...

and Hal Sparks needs to fire his agent...

I guess it's a play on that old saying if you want to be in show business and have no talent become a magician.

yup, or a mime...
would likely apply to ventriloquists as well...

Scraping the barrel me thinks
