Fox really wants you to get smarter.Following the success of the quiz show “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”
Fox decided to order least four more episodes, extending the show’s run through mid-April.
The series premiere of “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” broke records as Fox’s highest-rated series premiere in 13 years and the highest-rated series premiere on any network in more than five years among Adults 18-49 (11.2/26), and in eight years among Total Viewers (26.6 Mil.).

“Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”, hosted by comedian Jeff Foxworthy, is an atypical game show measuring adults lack of knowledge as revealed by how much they’ve forgotten since grammar school. Grownup contestants find themselves in a classroom setting, revisiting their youth, as they tackle subjects they’ve already been taught, ranging from art to geography and math to social studies. However, the players are not alone and there is a way for contestants to cheat in this classroom. The adults have the opportunity to get some help in the form of elementary advice from real grade-schoolers who have hit the books.
