Any chance you could do an in-depth video/video series on "love connection"? That one was a heavyweight in syndication throughout the 80s until the mid 90s as well, which was followed by a short-lived second run in syndication in 1998/99, a proposed revival for syndication in 2015 which ultimately fell through and and approximately two year run on Fox from the summer of 2017 until the winter/spring of 2019. Another few suggestions for future videos… The US versions of "weakest link," who wants to be a millionaire" and the subsequent million dollar game show craze, the various runs of "Hollywood squares" and "match game," and, for a complete change of course (though I have no doubt you could pull this one off also,) the CBS prime time reality based show, "rescue 911".

Look, Steve Harvey is a great host, but I don’t watch it now because the questions just fish way too much for dirty answers to dirty survey questions. Also, a new wrinkle to the Anderson version was that if a family successfully got the steal on a question, they didn’t just get the points the other family had already put into the “bank” (for lack of a better term), they also got the additional points from a correct answer. Example: Family ‘A’ gets 87 points before getting their third strike. Family ‘B’ is given the obligatory chance to steal and does so, giving an answer worth 10 points. Instead of only being awarded 87 points, as would have happened in the versions from 1976-1995, the additional points were awarded, and the family got 97 points in this example. I always really liked that subtle little change.

A note about Doug Davidson: He was probably the most veritable celebrity Feud player up until that point. He appeared on every incarnation of the show, with Richard Dawson and Ray Combs, and he would make subsequent appearances during the Louie Anderson and Richard Karn eras. He also hosted the stage version of the show, Family Feud Live!, where I think, he is a better fit for this format than he was on the syndicated Price is Right in 1994-95.

Excellent job...it's times where I forget the current version's been on the air 23 years. It feels like there should've been a gap around 2008 or so, but nope...one continuous run. However, in that era between Richard Karn and Steve Harvey's first year or so, it felt like a generic daytime game show. Filler material. Taking advantage of social media and centering the show around Steve's humor was the best decision they made. I'm not a fan of the writing or the euphemisms on the survey board (i.e. Dong Sarong for Condom), but I respect the cultural relevance its had in the last decade.

Interesting series, thank you for producing it. What's overlooked in your praise of the current run is that its success depended on completely abandoning the good-hearted kernel at Family Feud's core. At the peak of the original run, Family Feud brought people in from all over the country. Families from tertiary media markets packed their Sunday best, got on a plane (for many, a rare or unique experience!), and competed in a setting where they knew they would have each other's backs and nothing terrible would happen to them. Yes, Dawson could be harsh at times, but his saltiest barbs were usually reserved for select outsized characters making multi-day appearances on ABC. Nobody on the original run had to be afraid to show weakness or fault. Dawson would even request the tiniest of strike sound effects if someone was clearly vapor-locked and struggling. The current run inverts that formula. "How *dare* these families have the *audacity* to come onto this television show and try to win money?" it asks. "We will be sure that, by time we're done with them, they've been taken down a peg or two." The seeds were there long before Harvey took over, of course. Combs would sometimes pick on someone just because he needed a stooge for a punchline, and families started taunting each other with strike sound effects and symbols. But it's a shame that the show's formula for ratings success was to embrace a jaded, cynical attitude. The show was at its best when it was a positive environment for ten people to play a good-hearted guessing game about what 100 people they'd never met might be thinking.

I also enjoyed Combs (RIP), and Anderson (RIP). I used to watch Harvey before FF, he was a comedic natural, what a talent. He has the ability to make fun of the contestants without viewer complaints (I hope). However, the audience has changed, that is also important. The general format/objective of FF hasn't changed. Again, this was a very informative, respectful, and professional video. Thank you.

These Family Feud episodes are good, Will you cover other Gameshows, like The Price is Right, or Match Game among others?

Great video by the way. Thanks for finally posting it. Long time comin. I always wondered for yrs why Karn left the show? I pretty.much already knew why Louie and John left but u confirmed that for me. Thanks

Same here. I very much liked Karn as host and was surprised to see John O'Hurley just suddenly take on the role of host. I did warm up to John O'Hurley. I think that was because he has the perfect tone/voice for a game show host.

I liked both the Louie Anderson and Richard Karn versions of FF. I'm glad that Returning Champions returned in the 1st season of the Karn version. And, then 1st to 300 points rule returned in the 2nd Karn season. There were episodes in which families would get 300 points in the double point question. When this happened, Fast Money was split into 2 parts. The 1st part was where the Triple question would be. And, the 2nd part is where normal Fast Money would be. In the final (4th) Karn season, Karn didn't read the triple point question only once. He read the question to the family members who gave an answer. I wished Karn did host FF for a 5th year instead of replacing him with John O'Hurley. At least NBC did air a version of FF considering they passed on the show when it was in the development stages back in the mid-1970s (Fast Company). I like Steve Harvey FF. He makes it so relatable to everybody.

Very well done! I appreciate the time and the research that you have put into this. Family feud has always been one of my favorite game shows, though my most vivid memories of it are of the Combs era.

Of this iteration I loved the Richard Karn era. He had a great personality that fit the game perfectly. I think they hit their stride with the point structure and rules too during his run, especially that triple score caveat of reading the question once. It was a shame he didn’t stay on. I commend JOH for trying, but I think the show got stale by then and there was nothing he could do to save it.

I mean no disrespect to Steve Harvey. I think he's brilliant. One of the greatest stand-ups ever. But his version of FF, despite being popular, I think is abhorrent. Every single question is about sex, something sexual, or something that forces a sexual answer. And it's pure filth. This isn't a show you can watch with your parents anymore. And they try to pass this off as a family show.

The show became "raunchy" before Steve took over as host. That's why John O'Hurley chose not to host anymore as the video says at 48:44. So, it's not Steve's fault it went in that direction. Blame the producers/writers, etc

@@neetrab because the show is isn't enjoyable for me anymore. Richard Dawson was the best era. It should be Cinemax, not daytime TV.

Connor, I enjoyed your videos regarding the history of "Family Feud"! I think you can do a great job on doing something similar on the history of Dick Clark's "American Bandstand" from it's early Philadelphia years in 1952 up until the show went off the air in 1989!

The other two aside from Louie and Harvey, I completely forgot they existed as people. Their faces, names, voices, everything about them I had literally completely forgotten they existed. Like not even a semblance in someone random, or a passing thought. These people actually mattered so little to me, I forgot their existence in this Universe completely. Makes me wonder who else I've forgotten.

The Millionaire set looked like it had two large toothbrushes.Louie wanted Richard Dawson to be on the first show, but he politely declined.Can you blame Mr.Dawson? It's also strange to see John O' Hurley with dark hair and a clean shaven Richard Karn.If Steve Harvey didn't take the Feud gig, Cedric would have been a great host as he has experience in game show hosting,as he hosted Millionaire in 2014.
