The lead could use a little expansion, it should cover all main aspects of the article, including the production, the reception and possibly the merchandising.

Good news: image checks out for fair use licence.

Great! --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 13:39, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

When submitting an answer, is it multiple choice or are they writing stuff down?

Any chance of a real example of these questions?

Bonus Round, why not Smart Money Round in the heading if that's what it's called?

" answer five Idiotests " okay, you need to say earlier on that that's how they refer to the questions, as "Idiotests".

" with five second penalties" five-second

"with five second penalties on wrong answers" for wrong answers, not "on" wrong answers.

You haven't explained what GSN stands for anywhere.

Done in the lead. --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 13:39, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"announced at GSN's 2014–15 upfront presentation on March 18, 2014. At the presentation, GSN announced" repetitive.

"which began airing April 1, 2015.[7]" so 68 isn't the current total...? Is it weekly?

There are two new episodes a week; I've added a note in the infobox. --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 13:39, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"has generally received" is generally needed here?

Media Life Magazine is a work and should be italicised.

"Users who answer a certain amount of questions correctly" clumsy writing.

Publisher in ref 10 appears to be in parentheses while the publisher in ref 12 does not. Consistency please.

That's it, nothing major, but some issues with some of the prose and some more content could be added to enhance the reader's understanding of the show's main concepts. I'll put it on hold for a week. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:15, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@The Rambling Man: Okay, I think it's Done, let me know if there is anything else. Thanks, --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 13:39, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, a lightweight article but one that nevertheless meets my interpretation of the criteria and isn't obviously defective in any critical section. Promoted. Good work. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:56, 2 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
