Interestingly, though the series aired on CBS (where Ray Combs' version had aired), the focus was instead on the 1976-85 versions hosted by Richard Dawson. Served as the finale to Game$how Marathon, hosted by Ricki Lake, in 2006. This version has managed to outlast the original. It was revived again in 1999, and has had four hosts so far: Louie Anderson, Richard Karn, John O'Hurley and current host Steve Harvey. While a ratings success, Combs never quite caught on with fans and critics like Dawson did, so when ratings dipped (and the show started bringing on B/C-List celebrities and professional wrestlers as contestants as a gimmick) Combs was fired and Dawson came back for one last season before the show was mercifully removed from the airwaves. The CBS show was renamed Family Feud Challenge in 1992, with the syndicated version being renamed New Family Feud later that year. Ray Combs was the host of the first Family Feud revival on CBS and in syndication starting in 1988. Gene Wood was the show's announcer from 1976-85, and 1988-95, reading the consolation prizes before he was Demoted to Extra as the show discarded the consolation prize card and announcer format in favor of pre-taped ads for the 1994-95 season. The original version began in 1976, with a concurrent syndication run starting up a year later both ended in 1985 within a month of each other. Richard Dawson was the original host when the show debuted on ABC with Paul Alter as director of the show. the FAMILY FEUD!"įamily Feud is a Game Show from Mark Goodson Productions in which two families compete to guess the most popular answers to survey questions.

The Badger Family from Buffalo is made up of Nia, Liz, Demario, Jenae, and Moe. Each correct answer is worth a certain amount of points and if a family wins a question and answer round, that family earns the points. The show features a host who manages the show, acts as a moderator, and interacts with the families. The primary idea of the show is pretty basic: two teams of families, each with five (5) members, battles head to head against each other guessing the answers to various survey questions. After its network television run, it entered syndication and has been produced that was since 1999. Originally the show was run on ABC and CBS for 23 years. The game show was created more than 40 years ago by Mark Goodson and has been on American TV since. Since 1976, Family Feud has entertained families all across North America with fun banter and great wholesome fun.
