Travis Kelce hosts ‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’: How to watch

Travis Kelce has entered his game show era.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end will return to TV screens in a different capacity as the host of Amazon Prime Video’s new game show “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?”
The 20-episode season premiering Wednesday will feature contestants competing against TV, music, sports and internet stars for a $100,000 prize.
The series serves as a reimagining of the “Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?” show that debuted in 2007 with Jeff Foxworthy as host. In that show, adult contestants were quizzed on subjects taught in elementary school with hopes of winning a large cash prize. In 2019, Nickelodeon briefly revived the series hosted by John Cena.
In this version of the game, players must attempt at correctly answering 11 questions derived from grade school curriculum. If they are ever stuck on a question, they can cheat off the celebrity’s answer.
