a great idea, long over due, there is so much rubbish on tv about paranormal nonsense, a good dose of reality is what is most needed to try to counteract some of the wooly headed content, such as colin fry’s program, and john edwards. to name but a few.
for instance the population at large would do well to know how cold reading works. this would go a goodway to preventing a lot of vunerable and often still greiving people from being defrauded and misled.

The TV networks are full of shows about the paranormal and the supernatural, it seems only fair to have a show looking at the world from the stand point of a critical thinker/skeptic. Critical thinking skills seem to be on the wane, and any TV show which seeks to highlight this problem should be strongly encouraged. Television is also badly lacking in originality, I strongly believe the Skeptologists will provide something different and exciting.
