The show featured ten contestants competing to become the next great mentalist, to be determined by viewers voting by phone and online. The contestants performed their effects on celebrity guests each week. The winner of Phenomenon would win $250,000.
On October 30, 2007, during an interview with Larry King about the show, Angel said "No one has the ability, that I'm aware of, to do anything supernatural, psychic, talk to the dead. And that was what I said I was going to do with Phenomenon. If somebody goes on that show and claims to have supernatural psychic ability, I'm going to bust them live and on television."
The winner of the first season was Mike Super.
The series was cancelled on April 2, 2008, after NBC announced its 2008–2009 schedule.

Among the buyers featured are "The Legend," Joe Pauletich, a shrewd veteran of 20-plus years on the auction scene; "The Hustler," Mike Braiotta, a Bronx-born tough-talker who looks for dependable items that he can quickly sell; and the tag team of Candy Olsen ("The Flame") and Courtney Wagner ("The Firecracker"), co-owners of a vintage clothing shop.
