Twelve celebrities are going to Summer school on Fox this July for a competition show that is unlike anything we have seen on US television.
Nation’s Dumbest, a proven format across multiple international territories, channels celebrities’ inner school spirit as they head back to summer school, facing a mix of brain-teasing tasks, fast-paced physical challenges, and long-buried classroom knowledge. Each week, the ‘smartest’ celebrity graduates, narrowing the field until a high-stakes final exam determines who will be left standing with the distinction no one wants – the title of The Nation’s Dumbest.
Enrolled in this season’s all-star class are television personality Hilaria Baldwin, actress and model Carmen Electra, actor Anthony Michael Hall, actor Jon Heder, musician and actor Chase Hudson, rapper and actor Ice-T, singer-songwriter Elle King, former NFL quarterback Matt Leinart, television personality Dr. Drew Pinsky, stunt performer and comedian Steve-O, singer and performer JoJo Siwa, and entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Andrew Yang.
“I can confidently say we have the absolute dumbest television format in the world – and for once, that’s by design, said Ryan O’Dowd, President of Unscripted, BBC Studios. “Nation’s Dumbest celebrates humor, humility, and the universal experience of not always getting it right. With Jack Whitehall leading the chaos and a cast fully in on the joke, it’s a bold, irreverent series packed with big laughs and real surprises.”
Class is in session on July 15th. Be there, or be square.
