Shows: Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?
In this new game show from Fox, each contestant must answer ten questions, and each correct answer is worth progressively more money. The first one $1000, the second $2000, and so on, up to $500000. If they answer all ten questions, then they are given the opportunity to answer an eleventh question, worth $1 million.
To make things interesting, the contestants are all regular people, and they are given five "classmates", who are all fifth graders (or of that approximate age). Each of their classmates can help for two questions. If they don't do anything, the classmate has to sit down, and the contestant picks another to stand next to them for the next two questions.
