If Steven Seagal can be a policeman on a reality TV series, why not Penn & Teller.

Though the fact that Teller doesn't speak in front of an audience might lead to some odd interactions with criminals.

I can totally see you point.
The Steven Seagal show is OK.

I can imagine the level of uncomfortability
of Teller not speaking and just either staring
or making faces.
