What’s This TV Show About?
A magic competition series airing on the The CW television network, the Penn & Teller: Fool Us TV show is hosted by Brooke Burke (replacing Alyson Hannigan) and is judged by comedic illusionists Penn Jillette and Teller. In each episode, aspiring magicians are invited to perform their best trick to try and fool the world-famous team. Anyone who succeeds wins the right to perform with Penn and Teller in their celebrated show at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. The live studio audience and the TV audience watch along with Penn & Teller as they try to figure out the secrets. The master magicians see the trick only once and have to try to immediately figure out how it was done. The live studio audience knows there are no camera tricks, secret edits, or helpful camera cuts — just real magic. Magicians in season ten include Moxie Jillette, Daxien, The Cosmic Romantics & David Schwartz, Cash, Aleš Hrdlička, Henry & Klauss, Jonah Babins & Ben Train, Alexandra, Artem, Anthony Dempsey, Rune Carlsen, Solange Kardinaly, Christian Engblom, Antonio Martinez, and Ari Novick.

Telly’s Take
Will The CW cancel or renew Penn & Teller: Fool Us for season 11? The show has become a staple of the network’s weekend schedule and is likely inexpensive to produce. As long as the headliners want to continue and they don’t have a better show to put in the timeslot, I think it will be renewed. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
