There is an interesting discussion on the forum, Greek mentalists about Uri Geller and his show:

But I have heard by my own ears that this time Uri declared in the very beginning of the show:"We don't claim to have any supernatural powers"!

Greek Uri Geller started!
In Greece the show is called:"Ο διάδοχος του Uri Geller".
I really enjoy the perfomance!
Impressive music, background, light and costumes. Charming contestants. Uri is in good shape though too skinny. I wonder do they feed him?
I especially liked act with telepathy (drawing of aeroplane), telekinesis (wooden spoon on the table) and Uri's act with broken watches.
Pedram's act with knives had a big success but for me it was too long.
This act is a little funny in the end.

Minute of Fame with Max Maximov
Yesterday "Minute of Fame" began on the central (1) TV station. There were many good contestants but I especially liked Max Maximov from Latvia who showed tricks with spoons and forks. He bent a lot of them in different ways, rubbing and on distance, he spiraled them and jurors couldn't unbend the spoons. He was so young, charming and self-confident! The perfomance was brilliant.
It is interesting that nobody said even a word about Uri Geller though for me his influence and influence of the show Phenomenon (The Next Uri Geller) were evident, the boy looked exactly like a contestant from the show (sure he could become a winner).
Max had big success, people were amazed and asked how he is doing this and is it a gift or result of training, and Max answered mistily. He works as a metal artist (craftsman) and it seems likes metal a lot!:)
I just think that perfomance like this is not for big audience. Though it looks great on TV screen but even the judges of a contest which were close to the stage couldn't see the tricks well (and Max had to repeat the trick specially for jury just near their table), what to say about other spectators.
Video and photo of Max's perfomance can be found here:

The Greek Uri Geller
24 October 2009 - The Greek Uri Geller starting!
It seems one more "The Next Uri Geller"? I am very curious and excited to watch Greek contestants. Greece is my favourite country, I have been there twice and would be happy to visit it again and again... Greeks are so special people, warm and kind. And some of them are very handsome!:)

Surrealism - Salvador Dali and his successor Uri Geller
I am sorry to say though I am well educated and studied Art I didn't knew this genius well before, at universaty we had too little time for every artist, maybe there was just half an hour for Salvador Dali and he didn't impress me. But when I have seen Uri's paintings I was shocked, it was something very special. I couldn't tear my eyes away from the pics.
Uri said it's a style of Salvador Dali... and I decided to go to Spain and visit museum of Dali. Have you been there? Arhictecture of the building is very original (the eggs:), sculptures near too. Statues of Oscars which Dali dreamt to get...:)
And of course his pictures. They are fantastic. And I do understand this kind of Art, even if it looks so unusual. These are pictures of subconsciousness, pictures of dreams! One thing turns into another, maybe it is strange but all Universe is one whole! It only seems to us that we are different, that the things are apart.
Sure it is very useful to look every day at such pictures to come inside yourself, to contact your own subconsciousness.
I also understood there that Dali had a big influence on Uri Geller! Not only on sketches. I have seen there a lot of tea spoons and Cadillac, and Dali's golden jewellery (shapes of serpents).
As for sketches I have seen them too, on the walls, and yes Uri really paints in Dali's style but Uri's sketches are better! Dali's works are too fast and slipshod.
And Uri's designs of jewellery though he starts from Dali, are more interesting and original too!
I don't speak of pictures because Dali was a real Master, he studied at Academy and perfected himself for years, it would be difficult to excel him but... Uri, as an artist, as a designer is a deserving successor of Dali.
And his famous Cadillac with spoons... is a worthy work of Surrealist Art!
