Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader is a game show that originally premiered on FOX back in 2007. After a hiatus, the show returned for a second season in 2019, hosted by John Cena.

Episode 201 of the second season of Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader sees five new contestants taking on the challenge of answering questions from elementary school curriculum. The stakes are high, as the contestants have the chance to win up to $100,000 if they can prove that they are indeed smarter than fifth graders.

In the first round, the contestants must choose a category and answer a question from that subject. The subjects include Science, Spelling, Health, Geography, English, and Mathematics. For each correct answer, the contestants move on to the next subject and increase their prize money. However, if they get a question wrong, they can either drop out or use one of their cheat options.

The cheat options available to the contestants are "Peek," "Copy," and "Save." "Peek" allows the contestant to look at one of their fifth-grade classmates' answers before committing to their own. "Copy" allows the contestant to use their classmate's answer as their own. "Save" allows the contestant to skip the question entirely and move on to the next subject without penalty.

As the rounds progress, the questions become more difficult, and the contestants must rely more heavily on their cheat options. The fifth-grade contestants are also given the opportunity to earn extra credit by answering bonus questions that are not part of the regular curriculum. If they answer correctly, the extra credit is added to the total prize money the contestant can win.

The final round of the episode sees the remaining contestant facing off against their fifth-grade classmates in a head-to-head battle. The contestant must answer six questions correctly in one minute in order to win the grand prize of $100,000. If they are unable to answer all six questions, they will still receive their accumulated prize money up to that point.

Throughout the episode, John Cena provides comedic commentary and interacts with both the contestants and the fifth-grade classmates. The contestants also share funny stories and interesting tidbits about their lives, adding a personal element to the show.

Overall, Episode 201 of Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader is an entertaining game show that combines education and humor. The show proves that even adults can struggle with elementary school curriculum and that fifth-grade students can be surprisingly intelligent.
