Some observations as a Yank watching this: -the set is better than ours; much better, as the Canadian map on the floor makes it stand out, and the colors aren't so drab, they are light and more fitting of a classroom -on a long camera shot, Colin looks a LOT like Peter Mansbridge in a suit -you are quite lovely
I like how relaxed this version seems to be compared to the American version. Colin is my favorite host out of the US AUS and Canadian versions. I love how polite the kids where when she picked the first 1 aswell. Aww Kathrines so cute, shes always the last one to put up her hand caus shes shy.
@sshelget it's part of the show, if the contestants just go straight through the questions without any thought and if they knew what they were doing, the show would be done in about 30 minutes or less
Anyone else notice that nowhere online states why the show was cancelled. I'm assuming it was due to poor ratings, but all information relating to this show has been scrubbed off the internet besides the basic information and brief description of the only 5 episodes. Not much else. I just found this weird because even Wikipedia is lacking on this show. Huge scandal? Or it was just so terrible that the creators don't want any information about it in cyberspace, and would rather the show drift off into obscurity?
it's just because when this show failed, it was an era when there weren't articles about things like that unless the show was hugely well-known, which this one was not.
They only committed to a mini-series. I guess they decided that was enough. They had similar things with deal or no deal canada and who wants to be a millionaire Canadian edition. In the case of millionaire, it was going to get a full series but they changed their minds because they were already airing the US version and were afraid it would be overkill.
She's 29 and a professor already?? Now she's 42 I think? Wow interesting! She looks more like 40 back then!! Jeez...sounds like she isn't that young either...sad
this woman is a prof. and needs to peek at the last answer. sad i am sorry to say. 3 degrees, go back to to school. i knew this off the bat and i have none. speaks volumes about our education system.
I live here in the United States; I was wondering why there are 7 kids in the classroom? In the past three seasons there are 5 kids in the classroom. The syndiacated version is down to 3 kids in the classroom. However there are 9 kids are on the show. The 3 kids alternates.
@darkhypertails Oh, really? I used to go to school with a member of the American version. By that, I mean that he's two years younger than me and I just graduated.
Oh god, that description makes me want to puke, "Watch as her vivacious and charismatic personality emanates through the screen. " Does anybody have a bucket?

Pretty sure this woman just posted a racist comment on Wayne Brady's TikTok account, giving him grief for reciting a Bernie Mac song with the words "black man." Sandra said, "Why can't it just be a man?" ...WTF - White America, enough already.
I hate these shows like all versions of it, mainly due to the fact the kids are cocky little buttmunches only watched this part for Colin Mochrie. The British version is unbearable btw, Dick and dom and Noel Edmonds are hosts *cringe*

He's so absolutely deadpan. I love it.
Something you don't hear on U.S. game shows. "Tax free."
COLIN MOCHRIE? A TV GAME SHOW HOST?! THIS IS PERFECT :D
I like how relaxed this version seems to be compared to the American version. Colin is my favorite host out of the US AUS and Canadian versions. I love how polite the kids where when she picked the first 1 aswell.
Aww Kathrines so cute, shes always the last one to put up her hand caus shes shy.
Seems like a waste of Colin. . Colin is a goldmine for comedy
Yeah some comics are natural hosts but some aren't.
Colin, with the white hair and suit (not a Hawaiian shirt, for a change) looks like he belongs on some kind of political analysis talk show lol
I'm watching this because of Colin too :D
I love Colin Mochrie. He is the only reason why I'm watching this.
Now when will Ryan host something?
you know its a Canadian game show when the prize is 1 million *tax free* dollars, or else its more like 400k after tax
Your stupid ass thinks tax in Canada is 60%??? LMAO
wow these questions are so much easier than the australian version...
0:21 And Now Here's Your Host The Best Teacher Colin... Mochrie!!!
I like how Colin hosts he should host a USA game show!
Colin on a game show that isn't a batshit insane one, damn.
When your one of your favorite actors says your name
colin's brilliant.
and now i like this show better than the american version.
wow Colin being serious!
did they cancel this show? i love the american show but i like this one to!
Yeah... the Canadian version only had this one season.
@sshelget it's part of the show, if the contestants just go straight through the questions without any thought and if they knew what they were doing, the show would be done in about 30 minutes or less
Woot Mississauga Ontario!
LMFAOO, i went to school with the black guy isiah, he won president cuz he said " i was on are u smarter than a 5th grader"
im watching this cuz of colin
Just found out about this a few seconds ago
Same
Same
only reson i am watching it for colin
I think its just so theres more variety rather than with 5 you know almost every episode will have the same kids help out
Could she stand still for 2 seconds at least
I couldn’t😅. I’d be all anxious.
whats funny is im american and i don't know some of these answers lol
im only watching this cause colin mochrie is hosting this xD
9:45. Contestant: wow that wasnt even what i was thinking of.
Asian: -_-

It's good to see that coiln still has work.i liked him better on whoes line
@mah81164 ME TOO! it's so strange watching him as a game show host. whose line has to come back... :(
third question is DRUMHELLER. Holy crap.
Anyone else notice that nowhere online states why the show was cancelled.

There was a time when if asked Are you smarter than a Canadian 5th grader? I would say That's kinda redundant. Now I say OMG COLIN MOCHRIE
COLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BRING WHOSE LINE BACK!!!!
When she said Nathan, I thought she said Naked
Tax free?! Moving to Canada brb.
jeff foxworthy takes like 5 minutes to tell the answer, and after 2 questions its commercials...
@tommorrelo1212 he wasn't born in canada, but he does have canadian parents.
She's 29 and a professor already?? Now she's 42 I think? Wow interesting! She looks more like 40 back then!! Jeez...sounds like she isn't that young either...sad
this woman is a prof. and needs to peek at the last answer. sad i am sorry to say. 3 degrees, go back to to school. i knew this off the bat and i have none. speaks volumes about our education system.
Hahaha! How much sugar do they feed these kids before going on air?!
I thought 1 million Canadian dollars is just $25 US?
WaffleCat 985,000 US
After taxes it'll probably be 25$
i don’t think you’re smarter than a fifth grader
Sadeem Bilal it’s tax free......
did the 2nd question ... in fucking 2.5 seconds
same XD

"I hang out with prostitutes because the price is right!"
-Colin
"I once felt 30, that was a long tim ago". sooo colin. Lmao
@waterwind2266 Sorry. I mean, I just graduated middle school. For some reason, he was one the show as a sixth grader.
Lol those kids aren't even old enough to watch what Colin really does... ( whose line)
@sephiroth051 That's what's wrong with game shows today. Everything is so goddamn dramatic and they make you wait forever.
a canadian fifth grAAder
@darkhypertails Oh, really? I used to go to school with a member of the American version. By that, I mean that he's two years younger than me and I just graduated.
I kinda wish the woman would stop moving around, jeez.
1:00-3:00 = wooooooooooo, woooooooooo, wooooooooo!
@CrimeSceneFairy94 I think most people are although I admit I stumbled onto this because I was lookin for other american 5th grader videos.
Really? The Canadian don't have income tax?
They do, but they don't collect income tax on money won in a contest.
What's the rationale there? You would think this would be an easy target, since taxing regular income would discourage work.
my God... Colin's hair is soooooo white.
Colin Mochrie IS the bomb!!!!
Oh god, that description makes me want to puke, "Watch as her vivacious and charismatic personality emanates through the screen. " Does anybody have a bucket?
I would so rock this how ... damn.. (except for specific local history questions for USA/Canada/N-America).
people are dumb :)
@mah81164 i thought i was the only one who wanted to watch this cus of colin
Britney spears resemblance
@badgal342 Nope, you're not the only one. That's why I'm watching it too! (Because of Colin) ha ha
