Timeless Houdini

Back in 2017, Houdini made an appearance on the time-traveling television show Timeless. Houdini was played by Michael Drayer. Now, you can watch one of the Houdini scenes via the YouTube channel Scene City.


This episode was called "The World's Columbian Exposition" and is set during the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. It first aired on Monday, January 16, 2017. Timeless ran for two seasons on NBC.

If you could travel back in time and see Houdini, what would you go to see? I will reveal my own choices in my year-end sign-off post at the end of this week.

  1. I'd go back to see his debut at the Alhambra in London 1900.

    1. Not a bad choice. You'd also get to see Chung Ling Soo as he was on the same opening week bill.

  2. I wanna see him do a bridge jump… and then jump in the water and have him rescue me! 🤣

  3. Okay but in all seriousness, I want to go back in time to see behind the scenes of all his movies! That would be cool!

  4. I would want to see prime Houdini so 1912, at a theatre in NY.

    Alternatively 1904 in London at the Hippodrome. The Mirror challenge!

    Finally, take me back to that day in October 1926 in Montreal so I could intervene to stop the Whitehead punches and enjoy the full evening show that night!

    1. And don’t forget to take Harry to the hospital after the show! 🤣
