Beginning Monday, Sept. 20, CMT's "ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5TH GRADER?" will kick-off new episodes with a special country music-themed week featuring country stars Joe Nichols, Josh Turner, Laura Bell Bundy, Trailer Choir and Craig Morgan. Hosted by Jeff Foxworthy, contestants will tackle subjects ranging from geography to social studies in each half-hour episode. (It will be interesting to see if anyone is dumber than Kellie Pickler (above), who famously competed on the show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqi0DwNLJdM )
CMT will also present two specials in November â "40 GREATEST SONGS OF THE DECADE" and "CMA RED CARPET SPECIAL 2010." Combining interviews, music videos and archival footage, the all-new two-hour special "40 GREATEST SONGS OF THE DECADE" celebrates the most successful and influential songs released between 2000 and 2010. Country music's biggest stars will be on hand, along with other famous faces, to tell the stories behind the songs while counting down to number one.
The "CMA RED CARPET SPECIAL 2010" will air Wednesday, Nov. 10 and highlight country music's biggest stars on the red carpet as they step out for the 44th Annual CMA Awards.
