More of this man - Please

I really like this show and Chris Crudelli is like a breath of fresh air. He has a particular style that I think belongs in a James Bond movie. Although the show has a violent content it is portrayed in a manner that I have no hesitation in allowing my children to watch. They also enjoy the show (especially my daughters who think he is 'fit' - in their words).

Chris himself is quite prepared to show his more vulnerable side and doesn't act the big I am - he reminds me of Shaun Connery and Roger Moore all rolled into one. He has no hesitation in having a good laugh at himself and although I watched the show by chance one night - I have followed it ever since.

I would love to see him doing a spoof of the Milk Tray man with a bit of Kungfoo thrown in for good measure. I don't think we have anyone like him in the UK and I would like to see a lot more of him - PLEASE.

Don't be put off by the terrible title

Writer and host Chris Crudelli, himself a martial arts expert, travels the world assessing the validity of miraculous claims and people and despite the ill-advised title this series has a lot going for it.

Throughout the course of the series Crudelli visits various Eastern cultures in an effort to either explain or be amazed by endurance feats, 'miracles', and martial arts, some of which are stunning others of which may make viewers wince.

One thing viewers may notice is Crudelli's unusual style, he tends to bring his brand of terminology (exemplified by the title)to situations which demand a more intellectual approach. Having said this his enthusiam for the series and the subject is very apparent making an already exciting premise more interesting still.
