I tuned in quite by accident and thought I'd check it out....the "dumb" part, in my estimation, was certainly not the level of intelligence it took to answer the subject matter correctly in 5 seconds, and the academic qualifications of the contestants was impressive, but rather the basic format..as far as making it a "light show" - over dramatic background music, and how the contestants actually competed/ answering questions. Along with a few additional bits of real intelligent information, I "learned" not to watch this program again.........
