Why We Rated This on for Ages 8 and Up

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    Teams are obviously competitive and want to win the money, but this series isn't as greed-focused as Deal or No Deal or as mean-spirited as 1 vs 100 can get.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence & scariness:

    Not an issue.

  • Sexy stuff:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Not an issue.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

What Parents Need to Know

About The Rich List

Parents need to know that this entertaining game show offers family-friendly content that begs to be shared by those at home. Both parents and kids will love testing their smarts on a wide range of topics -- against the contestants and against each other (though younger grade-schoolers may not have the knowledge base to participate in a lot of the categories). The show's contagious energy and absence of questionable content make it a great choice for families to enjoy together. The odd-couple contestant pairs (a Harvard grad and a waitress, for example) are strangers, but they must strategize together and trust each other's judgment to move ahead in the game.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about competition and teamwork. Why do people compete? What can you gain by taking on a challenge and doing your best? What does it mean to be a sore loser or a boastful winner? Why is good sportsmanship important? What traits are important in a good teammate? How do teammates learn to work together? How well do you think you'd do on this show?
