Who's watchin this game show that's sure gonna be a hit! I've got it Tivo'd tonight! If the person can get eleven 5'th-grade questions correctly, they win a million dollars. Otherwise they are forced to say the words "I am not smarter than a fifth grader" and no, the show isn't as harsh on its contestants as American Idol is. I can't wait to start watchin. It runs after Idol 9:30 EST Tue, Wed & Thu on FOX.

The hell? Is this what game shows in the US have reduced themselves to? Christ, I gotta get on that show then, I'm a guaranteed millionaire. You've gotta be a complete dumbass to not get those questions right. Screw that, I'll watch Jeopardy as always.

I'm pretty sure the contestants on that show go through a background screening before they are allowed on there. Probably keeping off anyone that has finished high school or has a career more prestigious than 3rd shift at the Jack in the Box.
They also probably get the leftover people that weren't deemed bright enough to go on Jerry Springer or Judge Judy's Courtroom as well.

LeDaemon I don't think you could be more correct - there is a huge bias with the school children that appear on the show - until tonight, I believe the children have never been wrong in any of the three nights that 5th Grader aired last week. I like the concept. I like the show, but with the overwhelming ratings from the show, it's too bad it won't be the next Deal or No Deal or Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

The only reason I caught the 1st few episodes was because of one of the contestants, Susan, I believe. She's pretty hot! I am lucky enough to only see the show and not hear it, most of the time I'm at the gym.
