Did you watch the game show "Are you smarter than a 5th grader?"

Yes, I have watched it several times this week and thought it was neat and funny how the kids knew more answers than the adults. I do not remember learning all of those things during 5th grade so I think it would be more difficult. Some of the questions are pretty easy. Kids are learning a lot of things at an early age now that adults did not learn back then. Plus many things we do not retain because we never use many of things we learned back then.

Hi. I watched some of the show last night and thought it was really neat. The older I get amd the farther away from the fifth grade I get, the harder some of the questions get. It would be wonderful to get on the show but it would be embarassing to be removed as a contestant because I did not know a question from a third grade book. Wouldn't that ne awful?

yes i watched it, i thought it was cute too. it is weird how you do forget what you learned so many years ago.

I haven't heard of it. What channel and what time, please & thank you.

I watched it for the first time last night and I do like it. It seems like it would be fun to be a contestant. The only thing is, I wonder how they screen the contestants because the way I see it, the questions were really simple to answer and the show’s producers probably don’t want to be paying out $1 million dollars during each episode. So, how do they ensure that the questions asked are difficult enough that a 5th grader could answer but a grown adult may not?....just a thought.

yes we watched it. it was very cute. we are gonna even watch it tonight. the hubby even liked it

I didn't know it was on now! Thanks for informing me! I will have to program my DVR to record it! I heard about it here on myLot...but I hadn't heard that it was actually airing yet! I will be sure to set record tomorrow! Thanks!

I watched it and I thought it was ok. I'll probably watch it tommorrow night too. Its amazing at what we forget being out of school for so long. I worry that it might send the wrong message to kids but I am in a negative kind of mood today.lol.

Yes I did watch it. I'm not as smart as a 5th grader, but I still like the show.

yeah I liike it.

yes i watched it.it was really cute.i just wouldn't want to be a contestant.i bet they fill really dum.lol

I did and recorded it for my daughter! I agree that 8:00 would be a better time, as she goes to bed at 9:00. I did not know it was on again tomorrow. I will try to catch it.

Yes,I watched it with my 5th grader! It wasn't as dumb as I thought it was going to be. We will be watching it again tomorrow. I was at least smarter than the people they had on to night. I was one of those people who didn't like school and would study for a test,just to pass the test and then retain any of the information I was taught?

Yes, me and my 5th grader watched it together and had fun doing so. He really got a big kick out of the "cheating" concept. As dumb as I thought the show was going to be I really liked it too.

I've watched it several times now, and I just love those kids. I've done pretty good at answering many of the questions, but I missed many that I should have been able to answer also. I think "use it or lose it" applies here. I've been out of school for more years than I'd like to admit. However, I honestly feel that I learned some of those things in later years, not in grades 1-5. I'd like to see it on earlier also because I have 5 grandkids who would certainly love to try to answer many of the questions just to show how smart they are. LOL.

I am watching it right now. ^_^ I think these kids are all geniuses. I can't even answer those questions. But it is amazing that they could. I can't remember what I've learned. :( Poor memory. I can't even remember what I did yesterday.

I absolutely loved it! I hope it comes back for more than just 6 episodes. Some of the constestants were just unbelivebale though. Those kids are precious!

Ive watched this show quite a few times and the questions arent as easy as one might think. Sure the questions should be answerable by the people who compete butI hardly think any given 5th grader would know the answer to any of them. The show may be great but i cant get over how much the host patronizes the contestants. Honestly the host seems to be the dumbest guy on stage.

I don't watch the show because I think Jeff Foxworthy is annoying, and I don't think the questions they ask are really representative of what you learn in each grade. So, I see it as slightly unfair.
