Is this like spinning a square wheel on a round game show?

A person can have average or above average intelligence and choose not to indulge it. People who are known to be intelligent at work argue the merits of one superhero over the other, which actor portrayed a villain better, fantasy sports teams, all of the time. I sit there listening to them thinking, How can someone so smart be so stupid?

They should have the same warning for every “reality” show.

And most of the ‘news’ shows. Amazing how much the interpretation of one event can vary so much.

Intelligence does not automatically mean you make good decisions.

It is a 20 hour series on why exercise is bad for you.

I wonder how intelligent someone is who sits in front a TV without their glasses on! ;o]

After living in the UK for many years and now living in Canada, I am amazed at the dearth of intelligent game shows in North America. The only one I watch regularly is Jeopardy and even that is quite mild compared to shows like University Challenge or Mastermind.

I never tell anyone that I watch shows that start with “Viewer Discretion Advised.” I mean, I can be discrete.

must be a press conference

^Maybe a White House press briefing.

Dang it! I should’ve paid more attention to those warnings before getting invested in reality shows!

Honesty is the best policy.

Oh, he’s just making that up!

You ain’t just a-whistlin’ “Dixie”!

Must be one of the better channels. 200 of the channels we get seem to be an offense to an average baboon’s intelligence.
