The show sucked. I won't miss it.

Hi everyone! I've been lurking for a while and decided to join.

It didn't help that some of these "secret" talents weren't so secret. Sasha Cohen was a gymnast before going into figure skating, so becoming a contortist wasn't difficult. And Mya studied under Savion Glover for a while.

Not that I watched the show, but it would have helped if the talent on display was something that almost no one knew about beforehand.

Reminds me of Winona Ryder's ping-pong ball trick

Yeah, you have a good point there and I didn't even think of that. However, throwing out Jericho as some beacon of quality programming seemed somewhat ridiculous to me. I personally would rather watch almost any scripted show than anything reality-based, but there is a reason Jericho struggled to stay on the air almost from day one.

I'm surprised the show didn't do better ratings like Dancing with the Stars.
Flair's secret talent is salsa dancing. So there still hope that he appears in Dancing with the Stars.
