Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?

I really wanted to like this show but Travis Kelsey is so dry. It is almost unwatchable. I'm not sure who made the decision to pick him as the host but he is just unbearable. The show itself could use some work as well. The celebrities are not really even featured. I had a hard time getting through even three episodes. And I don't think I left a single time. I can't even remember smiling a single time. For the show to be successful they need to have better celebrities, or more entertaining celebrities for that matter. A better host. And all around better content. It has potential but this is not it.

Probably our favorite show to turn on when we just want to have a good time, interact with each other, and laugh. A pure joy. Can't wait for more episodes. We usually watch 3 or 4 at a time.

So, I am not from the US. Fortunately. The contestants are really ignorant. And I mean shockingly. The level of ignorance displayed is fascinating even with "educated" contestants. The bar of the correct answer is so low, that even a mispronounced answer that is then written incorrectly is taken as correct. Celebs are even more ignorant than the contestants. The whole quiz is tragedy of US educational system at display. And people involved are actually excited...

The hype up done by everyone involved is sad. I don't know the mental level of the person who would actually match it at home. If you're kid, I could understand.

There are actually two celebs that know their stuff. The female comedian and the footballer with the beard. The rest of them are barely useful or completely useless.

Travis is a great host. He was made to be a cheesy (in the best way) game show host. I was impressed by him. Very charismatic. While I didn't know of some of the celebrities before watching the show, they were are all fun and have good chemistry. I left a fan of all of them. It's a good and light hearted watch for the whole family. It's fun to play along and you end up rooting for a lot of the contestants. They did a good job picking a variety of contestants with varying levels of knowledge and personality. I loved the original Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader and I love this version even more.

We tried, but after about ten minutes of the first episode we turned it off. Every question somehow gets a sorry. It's like Slumdog Millionaire but instead of flashbacks, the contestant talks about how he can relate to the question and how he knows the answer. Just answer the question and move on! I guess it takes a lot of monologuing to fill a 30 minute game show.

Travis Kelce is fine as a host, and the celebrities make sense for a show like this, but it seriously took way too long to get to the first question, and by the se one lengthy question segment we were done.if they need more to fill in the blank spaces, just add more questions.
