I've watched a few eps. It's entertaining. I'm amused by how they code talk with the magicians, letting them know they know how it was done but not revealing it to the audience. That culture of magicians fascinates me; kind of like the Wulin, it has its own language. Check out the American Masters documentary on Ricky Jay - that goes deep into that.
I've seen their show at the Warfield. They did a trick that no one on staff could figure out, knowing the stage and watching it from backstage. It was one of those bits where someone appeared in an empty cabinet, but staff saw it from the side and there was no way anyone could have gotten there, and there's no trapdoor on that stage. They played there a few nights and we watched from different non-audience angles and still couldn't figure it out.
Maybe LCF will chime in. If memory serves, she has a P&T tale.
