Fine for kids of all ages.
This show is fine for kids of all ages, but does get boring after a while. I don't watch it anymore.

This show is so awesome! It's fun to try to answer the questions, and funny when the adults can't get them. They have real 5th graders there, which is also cool.

The Grade Levels are Misleading
I just saw this show today, and there were several questions, that I had huge issues with. First of all, chemistry is not a 3rd grade subject. The question asked something like "What element is the chemical symbol Na on the periodic table." I was like, WTF??? How could they expect 3rd graders to know that? I didn't know that until I was in middle school, and that's because I watched Jimmy Neutron talk about "sodium chloride" which I later found was table salt. So many of the questions are like this, where they are not grade appropriate at all. Sorry.

Awesom Family Game Show
A great show for people of all ages. It's funny to see adults answering questions that I mostly know the answers to, before they even start to narrow down the answers. I especially like the celebrity edition.
