Penn and Teller: Bullshit! – Penn Jillette and his mute partner Teller, from their next five 2003 Showtime programs expose (literally several absolutely naked men and women on the set) sex-enhancement products (pills, pumps, and exercises to increase the size of a penis; hypnosis to fill out female breasts), feng shui (rearrangement of furniture to energize one’s home), the advertised value of bottled water (using New York City tap water in bottles with fancy brand names for taste tests in Candid Camera-like settings), creationism (a serious dispute in which a school board chose religion over science), self-help gurus (Dr Phil, Dr Pat, and others dispensing pep talks, off-the-cuff psychoanalysis, confidence-building sessions of walking on broken glass and hot coals for thousands of dollars to the gullible), and ESP (spoon bending, telepathy with animal – even easier than communicating with the dead, remote viewing – according to Polly Klaas’s father, no missing child has ever been located with the help of ESP) as pure bullshit. Here, drink this bottled water, move some chairs to the other side of the room, let me communicate with your pet, and you’ll have a bigger sex organ or tits in the morning. If not, you’re just a boob anyway.
