The Secret - a worldwide TV event

Oh, mere mortals, be amazed at the secret, because on February 16th you will witness something which was so incredibly awesome that nobody ever heard about it. It's... The Secret (d'uh).

Anyways, on February 16th "the secret to the world" will be revealed. Now, telly has told us a lot of things, so I don't really expect this to be anything really awesome. Besides, if it was, there would be more ads and stuff around. All I could find was a website, which tells us all sorts of things.

No, what really interests me is the fact that it's worldwide. I'll just watch it for the sake of seeing what you see at the same time, just because I can.

So, does anyone actually expect something good? Or do you already know that it's crap?

I've not heard of this before, so thanks. I'll probably be tuning in upon airing if I can remember to.

I did a little bit of searching and I'm fairly sure it's nothing in the slightest academic or all that secretive. I suspect it's nothing more than a vehicle for a recent release of the Master Key System book by Charles K. Haanel. That's the guy they show in one of the trailors when they say "in 1909 this man knew about the secret, as did many before him."

But whatever it is they're selling, this whole "secret" thing is a pretty slick marketing ploy. It seems they're relying entirely on the public's fascination with the esoteric and word of mouth.

So officially, I vote bullsh*t.

Hmm... I'm inclined to agree with damnhooligian... this sounds like ******** to me.

Its probably some sort of marketing ploy, the ultimate "secret" for long-lasting fame and success will be released to the public!

Imagine everyone being a star... Not only would it ruin the concept of stardom but it would also mean that we get even more crap on TV. Argh!

So a secret that a bunch of people in history uncovered??? Hmm....The Illuminati perhaps?

Im definatly intrigued but this is the first I've heard of it... maybe the secret is that we're not alone?

If this is supposed to be a world wide phenomenon then how come I haven't seen the adds for it?

If anyone got that, then you're my new best friend.

Have you been playing with your Mood Organ again, Cerpin?

I think they are going to tell us something about a mysterious secret to happines, prosperity, wealth and health or something. Of course, this is bollocks, but then again, I don't get to see the same thing as you do at the same time as you see it that often.

Two days after The Secret...

Worldwide? Worldwide my ass!!! Nobody even bothered showing it over here. Great. So, was it on TV in your place? And was it as big a thing as they told us?

I"m thinking its either a movie or a mini-series... it talks about getting the midas touch, or alladin's lamp, the holy grail...

So.. I"m thinking this is Nothing REALLY huge. Just a really fancy promo for a TV show that's coming up.

...I DO like the music tho.. very nice.

I don't think any TV stations had planned to air it. This ground-breaking worldwide event probably exists no further than the confines of ye olde internet. And if it ever does get broadcast, it'll probably run as an informercial late at 3am on cable TV. Or on PAX.

But after a bit of hunting, the premier has been delayed supposedly due to "an explosion of interest", so in it's place they just uploaded another clue.
