Maybe no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public. But we know at least two people who are going to get rich by proving just how stupid the American public can be. Are You Stupid? -- the new hit game show from the makers of The Weakest Link -- looks to crown the Stupidest Man and Woman in America, with a series of questions so simple, even a child could answer them.

The Search Begins

From coast to coast, thousands of hopefuls have gathered in recent weeks for the chance to be one of our Stupidest finalists. Talent, personality and strategy were not required -- just a dull mind and slow wits. Participants from each part of the country compete to tally the greatest number of incorrect answers, under the watchful eyes of our panel of experts (Charlie Rose, Robert Waller, Dr. Laura Schlesinger and Dr. Martin Fleischmann). Answer too many questions correctly -- or get lost on the way to the studio -- and you're eliminated!

Play Along at Home

Each week, you'll get to join other viewers in voting off one of our idiotic contenders. Just dial the special Are You Stupid? 800-number to vote off the dolt who doesn't measure up to standards of stupidity we've set for the show. Are You Stupid? contestants are not allowed to participate in phone voting, though we doubt that will stop them from trying!

The Prize

Once we've found our two Stupid winners, we'll present them with the grand prize -- $1 million worth of pogs, buttons and string.

Stupid is as stupid does -- and we're rounding up contestants who do things very stupidly indeed!
