Short description
Battle of the Psychics (Bitva Extrasenov) is a Russian-language TNT TV show based on Britain’s Psychic Challenge. Each season starts with 8-13 participants selected for their superior psychic abilities, but tries to expose them as frauds. Tasks in the beginning of the series are relatively simple, such as revealing the contents of a sealed box or what lies behind an impenetrable screen, and progressively become more difficult. One participant judged to be worst is eliminated each week, but all participants advance to the next round if the panel is unable to come to a decision.

What's left behind the scenes
- Filming each episode took nearly two days. First, the filmmakers prepared a so-called "character profile" describing the people who had sought help. After that, the competitions themselves began. Filming lasted from 18 hours up to a full day. Scenes were reshot extremely rarely, and second takes were not planned. This was followed by editing, where the filmmakers decided which pieces of the recorded footage to show and which to cut.
- The editors received a vast number of letters from viewers, around 1,000 per day. Each letter was carefully studied to select material that would subsequently serve as the basis for filming.
