... i'm not

it's a new game show on the fox network. i have to admit, even though it's a little dumb, it's really funny to see grown adults fumble with grade school questions.

i didn't get some 3rd grade questions. sad.gif

how many teaspoons are in five tablespoons?
true or false: walruses are native in the artic
the big dipper is part of which constellation?

^ Lol impeached? Nixon resigned because of the Watergate scandal. In fact, I believe he was the only president to ever resign presidency.

Tell your teacher to read up.

Yeah, Nixon resigned before getting fully impeached. D:

Haha. Yesterday everyone was arguing about the impeached question in class as well. The show is interesting. I don't see it lasting long at all.

Hate to say it, but I don't know what they're talking about on the show like half the time!

Lol, it's awesome though. I love that they tease all these older people. tongue.gif

OOH. Haha, that show gets me so stressed out. Either I can't answer the question, my mom thinks I can't answer the question, or I answer it and I get frustrated when I know and it's boring. xD

Cute show, though. Love the kids.

I was going to see this show in the live audience.
It was like some promotion how if you go watch this show air then you'd get American Idol audience tickets.

But I decided not to go. My friend says this show is funny. I'll watch it sometime.

Some of the questions aren't even for 5th graders.
I am 100% sure 5th graders don't know what "impeach" means nor they have ever learned the periodic table.

They should make it "Are You Smarter than a 8th Grader?" instead because the questions are ridiculous for 5th graders.

^I knew what impeached meant. shrug.gif They seem pretty cut-and-dry elementary school questions to me.

SEEEEEEEEERIOUSLY, I love this show so much it's gotten, like, ridiculous. I've begun to quiz my friends and teachers to see if they're smarter than a 5th grader. We get most of them, but every now and then a question comes up where it's like "Oh shit. Thanks for making me feel dumb, Kaycee!"

...good times, good times. _smile.gif

I heard about it over the radio station on KIIS FM thats hosted by Ryan Seacrest here in L.A. and I thought it was stupid...even the title isn't creative.

This show is good for a laugh. I've seen two episodes of it. My brother really likes it though, but he's actually in the fifth grade so he mocks the adults when he knows things they don't.

I don't remember learning any of the questions asked in this show.
I think those "5th grade kids" are trained or like preped before the show. It is extremely unlikely for those kid actors to know half the questions asked in the show.
If those questions really are 5th grade questions then "I'm not smarter than a 5h grader". :-(
