I thought it might be but I haven't found it on any official banned list...

No. If it's not listed on the ban list here then it isn't banned.

Local playgroups may create house rules banning the card, but for official purposes the EDH group I linked is the true source for format information.

Thanks for the official link, I appreciate it. Somebody told me it was and that upset me haha. I'm making a deck based around not paying the casting cost for most/any of my creatures and it seemed that Show and Tell would work fantastically toward that purpose. It already works well in Legacy, and it could be a fun Commander deck to play.

Show and Tell + Hive Mind could lead to some silly games if that's what your after, if your playing more competitively i would cut it

Yeah, I'm looking to put Blightsteel Colossus , Kozilek!, Ulamog, Woodfall Primus into play for basically free early turns. Not so much silly as attempting to make awesome plays
