| Paul Potts' first performance on Britain's Got Talent | Wanna see the metamorphosis to swan? Enjoy this "Rocky-like" clip. Get your handkerchief ready. | It's everywhere, but Try Here |
Mind Control with Derren Brown |
This guy blows my mind. He played chess SIMULTANEOUSLY with 9 grandmasters and masters and beat all but 1 of them. This, and countless other demonstrations show the real power of a creative thinker with a great mind. | |
The Closer |
I only recently caught onto this phenomenon, but now I can’t miss it. Kyra Sedgwick is great as a strategist. | |
House, MD |
A pop-media polymath, you’ll enjoy Dr. House once you get past his acerbic personality. | |
Prison Break |
I enjoy watching these fellas strategize and navigate the tumultuous interpersonal relationships that are “prison.” | |
Lincoln at Cooper Union |
This re-enactment by Sam Waterston of “the speech that made Lincoln president” is one of the finest speeches I’ve ever heard, read about, or witnessed. | Good luck. This is a rare find. |
