That are you smarter than a fifth grader show is unappealing!

um.....guess the OP answered his or her question...

assuming that they were asking a question....


were they asking a question?😕
 
Ridiculously hard? All the kids answered them correctly....

The appeal is watching some UCLA grad be a doofus and miss the first 4 questions.

***Spoiler Alert *****

I mean, the guy had a 50/50 chance to answer whether polar bears eat penguins and misssed it!

Having witnessed your terrible writing, I really hope this isn't true.

Why would someone need to know if polar bears eat penguins anyway? I'm sure the UCLA could outsmart the creators of the show in practical things that will eventually lead to him making more money than them.

I think the deal here is the UCLA grad is focused on his major, and the fifth grader is focused on being an overly "intelligent" child, and winning. Anyone in fifth grade could remember that polar bears don't eat penguins because of the fact they live in seperate hemispheres. Why? Because it's fun for them. The UCLA grad wants to make his money, not know something that won't apply anywhere else.
 
someone who has just been taught this material is sharper than someone who hasn't seen it in 20 years. amazing

It IS just an entertainment show and not supposed to be taken seriously.

How can something hosted by Jeff Foxworthy NOT be taken seriously? 😉

The show is named "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?"

I'm not watching it....just saw the commercials for it. No interest in wasting my time with it.

You went to a bottom of the barrel public school in a slum some place, right?
