| Description: | What comes after life? It is a question that has flustered philosophers, birthed religions and stumped history's greatest minds. Now an answer comes not from a theologian or a scholar but from a baby-faced former ballroom-dance instructor from Long Island, a man who grew up wanting to own his own deli but instead is the host of a cable television show on which he claims to talk to the dead. John Edward, the 31-year-old star of ''Crossing Over With John Edward,'' the hit Sci Fi Channel show that goes into national daytime syndication Aug. 27 (at 3 p.m. on CBS in New York), has been called everything from a charlatan to a messenger from heaven. In the process, he has also managed to unite an unlikely coalition against him, become something of a pop icon and create a whole new genre of television: the psychic talk show. On a recent Tuesday afternoon, Edward is taping two half-hour episodes at the ''Crossing Over'' studio in Manhattan. Slowly pacing the stage, he peers down at the floor for a second, his face fixed in a deep frown, and then points to an area about three rows up in the audience, which is assembled before him, about 80 strong, in a semicircle. ''I'm over here,'' he says, waving his finger back and forth. ''They're telling me to acknowledge that a female figure is coming through. It's got to be somebody above, a mom, a mother figure that's crossed over.'' |
