Just to be clear, in my "real life" people usually come to me with hard questions to have answered, and that will require some Google Fu to get answered. I am a pretty prodigious user of the search engine.

Thus, having already tried your suggestion I retried it. Not saying it isn't there...just that I didn't see it.

Many years ago i saw a video where a psychic, maybe Uri Gellar, was on an old black and white talk show (maybe Ed Sullivan). The psychic gets up, walks to the camera, and looks into the camera. Just as he does that, it flashes to the street in front of the studio. The psychic was "channeling" what it looked like out front, like a remote view.

I only saw this once, and would really like to get a copy of the video. Anyone here at ATS know what the hell I am talking about?

Well, if that was an Ed Sullivan B&W show, then this is probably not Uri Gellar, as its career really started to grown up at the very beginning of the 70's, and as the show was in B&W format from 1948 to 1965.

Another possiblity is that this wasn't at the Ed Sullivan show but another English-speaking show.
In his
biography, we learn that "His 1973 appearance on David Dimbleby's Talk-In brought him overnight fame in Britain, which spread, immediately throughout the world. So we can reasonably guess that its first TV show occurred after this BBC show.

Here's a list of TV shows appearances of Uri Gellar, between 1973 and 1995 in the USA (source: Gellar's bios):
Among his appearances in the United States were Sixty Minutes with Mike Wallace, Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, as well as 20/20 and a number of specials. He has been a guest of Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas, Phil Donahue, Tom Snyder, Barbara Walters, Oprah Winfrey, Leeza, Larry King, CNN, and NBC Dateline.

The problem is that all the TV shows were broadcasted in color in 1973 in USA: "By the early 1970s though, color sets had become standard, and the completion of total colorcasting was achieved when the last of the daytime programs converted to color and joined with primetime in the first all-color season in 1972.

So I guess that, most likely, it wasn't Uri Gellar.

Great stuff.

I get the feeling that it was a Russian, actually.

But I wonder if the old Leonard Nimoy versions of In Search Of might have some information that would make it easier to identify which show it was (name, season, episode, etc).

Why i think it was "In Search Of" is because i saw it at my uncles house, which would have only happened around 1999 (when i would be at his house long enough to watch TV there, right after his motorcycle wreck). History Channel aired the show in the late 90's, ending the run in 2000, so that makes sense

I believe it to be from Season 1, Episode 13: Learning ESP. I found it on several video sites, and will watch it shortly Right now my 13 year old needs a foot in his butt. Once i do that, then convince him i still love him, I will watch the video and report back.

Sorry, I could not help as much as I didn't and still don't watch those kind of programmes.
I suggested this as I have found a lot of old TV shows on youtube and use it to show hubby what I am talking about.

Namasté
