If so, what did you think of it?
I personally thought it seemed very fake, like it was a bunch of actors up there. It was entertaining, though. Some of the things were pretty funny.

I agree with a lot of you. Some of those questions were really stupid though.

TOTALLY! I was hoping someone else noticed. I saw one other ? on here about this too.
They got the white collar, glasses wearing nerdy, history major guy kicked of in 2 or 3 ?'s (with a history ?), and then "Lakisha" who claimed to go to the "li-berry" often, appeared to pull all the answers out of her ***. Looked TOTALLY rigged. Im glad someone else noticed.
Its a shame too, i thought that was a really good i dea for a show, but it ended up being difficult to watch due to the poor acting on the part of the actor that played the contestant...
Im SO glad someone else noticed this and that we are not as dumb as FOX would think we are

Yeah, I think the concept is cute. Jeff Foxworthy was WAY better than I thought he would be, even though he is kinda funny as a comedian, I wasn't sure how that would translate to being a host.
It was so funny when that first man didn't answer one question, but the kids got him 5 grand anyway.
I'm in Canada so some of the US questions are hard anyway - not necessarily the history, but government ones are hard for me. And I was a teacher! It is funny how much kids learn in primary and middle school!

I liked the premise, how u forget a lot of what you learn as a child. And because of Jeff Foxworthy (of "Redneck" fame), I expected it to be a hoot.
But I found that it wasn't as exciting to watch as I had expected. Interesting but not exciting.
The structure of the game is also disappointing. You win the first 5000 or so based on the kids answers which is kinda boring. I expected something more like 1 vs 100.

I watched it. It was pretty good. It would be better if they'd have sped it up a little. It took 30 minutes to ask 5 questions. I was disappointed because the people did seem pretty fake. It's not a show that I will become hooked on.

Yeah, I don't know what to think of it. It's entertaining, but do we really need to point out how stupid most of us are? Just goes to show how much we forget and can get by without know who the first President to be impeached was. Hopefully it doesn't give those kids a big ego, but like I said it was entertaining - not so much to watch the people but to quiz myself.

I watched most of it last night. And I agree with you in that it looked like they had actors up there. I think they might have let the kids read the answers before the show started. But I don't know.

I hated each second of it. Have in simple terms lately placed my 10 month previous female right into a nursery, and it really is made me very frightened. in simple terms hoping the united kingdom nurseries they confirmed are the very worst, and not at all a wide-spread mirrored image. If someone dealt with my little female like that i'd heavily do some thing i'd (or would no longer) sense sorry about.

Yea, I was depressed with how little I know. I got the Mayflower question and the polar bears eating penguins question...but that was it. This show just proves that everything you learn in grade school is worthless in the real world. Who needs to know who was the first president to be impeached or how many sides a trapezoid has??

i watched the show.
is it me, the 5th grade girl in the back, wasn't she in the sarah silverman show last week, which led me to think most of these kids seem familiar and if the kids are all actors do they know all the answers before hand or just the ones they are ''strong'' in.
i saw this show when it was called ''Hollywood squares.''
can they jam anymore commercials into a half-hour show.

How could a UCLA graduate who majored in U.S. history NOT know who was the 1st president to be impeached? And I didn't care for the "Who wants to be a millionaire" way of pausing for dramatic effect before the answer is revealed. It's wastes playing time.
