“The success was so quick and so great, we felt we should pick up as many episodes as we could as quickly as possible,” said Fox alternative honcho Mike Darnell.”At its core it”s a very simple relatable format on a simple relatable topic,” said “5th Grader” exec producer Roy Bank, who”s also head of development and operations for Mark Burnett Prods. “We expected it to come out of the gate really strong, especially with an `Idol” lead-in.
