I've seen Kreskin twice: once on Fox & Friends, and once in person.  In the latter case, he was checking out of a hotel in Halifax as I was checking in for my brother's wedding.  Naturally he predicted a long and happy marriage.  So far, so good. :-)

I saw Kres in person once.

I was a fledgling segment producer at a talk show in DC, at the start of my career. Putting my segment together, an a capella musical group, was a big thrill, and a big challenge for me.

Kreskin was on the same show. Did a trick with the hosts (for clemon : John Curley).  Trick didn't work. He said he could make it work.  Stayed on show a full extra segment to make trick work.  As a result, one later segment got pulled. My segment.

I dont' like the Amazing Kreskin.

LOL...incidentally, he also appeared during the final season of the syndie WML?, as both a panelist and Mystery Guest.

He's a little before your time: the Amazing Kreskin is a "mentalist" whose schtick is having people hold onto one end of a hanky while he holds the other one and telling the person all kinds of seemingly "private" facts about their life. He's an utter sham, basically.

Don't feel bad. The only reason I've ever heard of him is from a brief mention in "Superfudge".

Goodness GRACIOUS, that brings back some memories!
