And yes, it moves much too slowly.

YES! I knew I wasn't crazy. I remember the libraries back home using the "F-Author" notation.

Yeah, definitely too slow. I won't bother watching it again.

Its a cute show with a cute premise - and definitely makes you think about all the stuff we've forgotten!

But yes, it is too slooooowwwww -- they asked one question & got the answer and asked the next question & went to commercial. So you average 1.5 questions per segment, so 5 sounds about right.

I HATE how every freaking show has played off of Ryan Seacrest with the "after the break" - Howie on DOND is the most aggrivating but Jeff Foxworthy is catching up!
