I watched this show a lot more when it first came out. There are 5 kids that set at desks and get to come out one at a time to help a contest. So basically the adult can cheet off of one of the kids if they need to. Of course they are picking very bright 5th graders to be on the show but it is kind of interesting how much people don't know. And I wonder how they figure out what questions go in what grade because I am a 2nd grade teacher and there are some things they ask as a 2nd grade question that is something we don't teach so it would be interesting to find that out. It is really show at times...

Are you smarter than a fifth grader? This board game is good entertainment for your family. It plays just like the television game show, with cards set up for each category ranging from first to fifth grade. It really challenges you to revisit your grade school past. I have not been able to win the game yet, unless I have seen the questions before. Some questions make me think back to my early school years, wondering if I was taught this or did it come around in 7th and 8th grades. This game does answer one of the age old questions you may have asked yourself growing up----Why do I need to learn...

I enjoy watching this show and testing my knowlege against those of the contestants. It is a bit humbling though when I get the answer wrong and the kids on the show all get it right. I sometimes find myself jeering the contestants as they play. Sometimes I wonder where they find these people because it seems obvious that school was not something they aspierd to do well at.
There is the occasion that they have a really well rounded contestant and I will cheer them on and try to help them by shouting the correct answer. I feel much more entertained by this type of contestant than the goofballs...

Are you Smarter Than a 5th Grader is a family thing for us.  I guess I particuarly like it because if I played I would be a millionaire a couple of times over, not to mention that I am the smartest in the family.  I do have to admit that I have felt pretty dumb a couple of times.  I wish it was a little faster though.  Great to enjoy with the kids and show them how all of the stuff thay are learning now may come in handy some day.

This is a great show, educational and yet fun to watch both for kids and adults. It brings back memories of our elementary years at school. It is not boring and the kids are wonderful. A great test for even the genius, to see how well they still remember what they learned from their early years at school.

At home, parents and their kids can compete, at the same time have fun.

Are you smarter than a fifth grader has the potential to be a very good show that could be watched by a kids to test their parents. However, it is waaay tooo slooow. It could do without all the drama like " well i remember seeing this in Miss Smiths class but I am not sure I was paying full attention ..."  Without the acting dumb by the contestants it would be much better.

Except for the usual "we'll find out right back after these announcements" the show keeps me entertained.  Seeing the intelligence of the young people I have hope for the future but often have to say are they learning that already if fifth grade?  Jeff Foxworthy keeps the show moving and brings a little comedy into the situations.

This is a really interesting show.  Being 40yo, it's surprising many of the questions that come up as well as the subjects since I never had them in my grade school days.  The kids are cute and pretty smart.  Overall I like the show and tend to learn a few things while enjoying it.

Foxworthy is rarely funny.  The kids can be very annoying.  The contestants are dumb, annoying, or both.  The biggest problem is there is so much filler.  If you record this show, you can watch it in less than 10 minutes.  Believe me, you won't miss anything.

I enjoy this show mostly because I am a Jeff Foxworthy fan.  But it is a fun show to watch with kids because they can do as well or better then I can.  Some of the constantents are a little over the top but otherwise a good show.

I enjoy this show very much. Jeff Foxworthy and the 5th graders are great. I learn things that I forgot from my school days. I graduated High School in 1969 and I have to admit, I am NOT smarter than a fifth grader....lol
