    I rate this title iffy for age 10 and give it 3.0
    • My concerns are:
    • Negative message

    DISCLAIMER: It is wrong to Cheat.

    the fact that a contestant can CHEAT as a means to further their goal, sets a bad example for kids. It is an indirect way of endorsing cheating. Children know that cheating is wrong, and for a show to imply that it is acceptable in any situation may lead some of them to carry out the act. Parents will need to make a clear distinction for their children about the entertainment value of cheating, and its inefficacy in everyday life. Otherwise, the show is educational and gives children a positive attitude towards knowledge.

    I rate this title on and give it 4.0

    So far, I've only watched the first 2 episodes, but I think it's a cute show. I like the fact that I can watch it with my kids (ages 5&7) & not have to worry about bad language, sex, violence, etc. My 7 year-old/2nd grader loved watching it, because he knew some of the answers, but my 5 year-old/Kindergartner was a little bored. I'm not sure why it is on so late, but, luckily, we have a DVR & can watch it when we want. I think it is a pretty harmless & fun show.

    A Howard Stern Rippoff

    This show is a rip off of what Howard Stern used to do on his show. It was never approached to him that his then skit is now going to become a full blown out show. Dont watch anything on FOX, espeacially this

    I think this program shows how little adults actually know about things outside their careers. I am surprised about the lack of knowledge of US geography and history from some of the contestants. Know wonder our kids don't think that we know much as adults. The show is wonderful and I think the kids are adorable.

    a must see show for 15 year olds because adults seem dumb

    i love this show because it makes kid from the ages of 8 to 17 feel smart and people with kids (like adults) seem dumb. for a change you tell them in stead of them telling you haha>

    some questionable jokes

    The show is ok for the most part. But I took offence to the homeschooling joke he said on this weeks show. My child is homeschooled and she is 12 grade leval and above on all her subjects and she is only in 12 years old. So when Jeff told the women she must have been homeschooled and must have homeschooled herself because she missed several questions I and my child were very offerded. He needs to go to school and learn what homeschoolers know before her opens his mouth and inserts his foot again. Joke or no JOKE.

    it's great

    This is a great show. It's suprising to see what they are teaching kids nowadays. It's also nice that you can learn a lot from it. So not only is it enjoyable too see the adults clueless sometimes, it teaches too.
