THURSDAY
The stakes are high and the competition fierce on Thursdays this November, when FOX offers up four all-new, all-star hours of the A+ quiz show ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER?, including a special two-hour installment**; two all-new episodes of the karaoke sing-off DON'T FORGET THE LYRICS!; and the World Broadcast Premiere of comedy smash DODGEBALL on Thanksgiving night.
In four all-new, all-star November Sweeps hours of ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER?, host Jeff Foxworthy welcomes new students to the class celebrity contestants Clay Aiken and Regis Philbin during a two-hour episode (Thursday, Nov. 1, 8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT)**; Tony Hawk (Thursday, Nov. 8, 8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT); and Billy Bush and Kellie Pickler (Thursday, Nov. 15, 8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) as the celebs try to prove their smarts, competing for their favorite charities. In this atypical game show that tests these celebs' lack of knowledge as revealed by how much they've forgotten since grammar school they find themselves revisiting the classroom, tackling subjects they've already been taught, from art to geography and math to social studies. When the questions prove to be challenging, the celebrity contestants are not alone; there is a way to "cheat" in this classroom. They can get some elementary help by using a "peek," "copy" or "save" from actual 5th grade classmates to determine the correct a-n-s-w-e-r and graduate toward the top prize.
**EDITOR'S NOTE: If World Series Game #7 is necessary, the baseball game will air live starting at 8:00 PM ET/5:00 PM PT, replacing ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER?, and local programming will air in primetime on the West Coast.
