谁是达人每个人有他擅长的领域，但有些人对于那些领域不仅是擅长，而且是个极具天赋的达人。观看他人展现才华吸引着许多人，因此电视上的才艺展示节目在近年来大受欢迎。起初，在美国兴起了“美国偶像”(American Idol)和“美国达人秀”(American's Got Talent)。如今，世界各地都有诸如此类的节目，比如说"中国达人秀"。所有这些节目都有一个共同点：他们尽可能地寻找着最达人的达人，例如歌喉最棒的歌手，最具天赋的舞者，最令人兴奋的魔术师和最有趣的地喜剧演员等等。但是谁就说他们是最棒的？每个人都掌握着决定权。当普通的观众观看这些节目的时候，他们也同时充当着决定胜负的裁判。获胜的达人会得到很好的奖赏。
