Are you smarter than a fifth grader?

Filed under Entertainment on January 22nd, 2007 by Chris

That’s what Fox wants to know with a new TV show they have in the works. I would hope that the answer to this question for most people would be yes, but sadly, I know it isn’t true. One doesn’t have to look much farther than Jay Leno’s “Jaywalking” segments to see how truly stupid/clueless some people are.

Will I watch it? I don’t know… I suppose it could be funny, but given Fox’s track record… it’ll probably just serve as another way to poke fun at the un- and under-educated people of the U.S.

I’ve been getting a lot of traffic from search engines on this post… If you’re looking for more information on the show, check out the official site for the show on Fox.com: Are you Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?

    It was on Fox last night at 9:30pm, if I am not mistaken. It should be on again tonight and tomorrow night. As for registering to be on the show… my best guess is that you check out the fox.com website for more info…

    I think this show is pretty funny. I really like Jeff Foxworthy. I always watch his show BLUE COLLAR TV. But this show ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A FIFTH GRADER is hilarious. Some of the people on there are pretty,you know what I mean.

    I know what you mean. It is pretty amazing how much adults can forget… Obviously some people are just stupid, but others learn the things that get brought up in this show and have simply forgotten that knowledge… Use it or lose it, right?

    hehe… I don’t know how you get on the show. I imagine you’d need to get in touch with Fox for that information.

    @tgpo ~ You’re sick. You know that?

    @kennedy miller ~ I am not affiliated with the show in any way. I am glad that you’re “adicded” to the show. Perhaps you should consider checking out the Fox website for the show (http://fox.com/areyousmarter/) for more information.

    Why is so difficult to find out how to be on this show? Many of my friends have asked me this same question.

    My daughter is a fifth grade teacher who was intrigued to learn that fifth grade students may submit questions and receive computers for their school if their questions are used. Where can we find information?
