Whiz Kid Auditions

#1 Post by MarleysGh0st » Sun Aug 24, 2014 6:38 pm

A new post on the official SyndieBAM web site (also promoted on their Facebook feed):

http://millionairetv.dadt.com/whiz-kid-auditions/
Do you know America’s smartest kid?

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire is currently seeking exceptionally intelligent children between the ages of 11 and 16. They will be showcased in an upcoming specialty week where the best and the brightest get a chance to test their trivia skills and win $1,000,000 on Millionaire!

If you are the parent or guardian of a smart kid and would like to submit an application for them to be considered for the show, please download the application here. Complete the application, have a parent sign it, then submit a scanned copy to millionairespecials@abctv.com.
Exceptionally intelligent...with over-the-top personalities? Or will the kids get a chance that boring MAWGs never do?

I think this may be the first time I've ever seen Marley miss an on-topic announcement :shock:

Oops.

Well, Bob was confused by the lack of context in the OP, too.



And, as an on-topic post, it got so much interest here on the Bored. :|

Here's a video clip Millionaire just posted on FB:



A bright kid, with a personality that's neither over-the-top nor obnoxious, and a Plus One who's also a bright kid. And they're not afraid to go against the audience. I hope the rest of Kids' Week is as good as this highlight.

That's a good clip!

I'm still waiting to see what his hook is. Terry said something about him being smarter than 99% of everyone else, so I'm guessing he scored well on some IQ test.

Sounds like he's in Mensa. --Bob
