''It's time to play, Family Feud! This is Joey Fatone from Universal Orlando Resort in sunny Florida! And now, here's the star of our show, give it up for STEVE HARVEY!!!''

(Same words but it got arranged in a different order. When Joey Fatone became the new announcer, he says his name, location and the name of the game show. For Steve Harvey's first year of hosting, Joey Fatone opens the show by saying the name of the game show, his own name and location.)

Steve: Welcome to Family Feud! I'm [your man] Steve Harvey. We got a good one today. It's the (insert family #1), playing against, the (insert family #2)!

2011-present:

''Joey: This is Joey Fatone. It's time to play...Family Feud! Give it up for STEVE HARVEY!!!''

(Steve's opening spiel is the same as 2010 in which he continued to say until June 2012.)

''Steve: Welcome to Family Feud! I'm (your man) Steve Harvey and like always, we got another good one for you today. [Returning for their (x) day, with a total of $XX,XXX;] from [insert city and state] it's the (insert family #1)! And from [insert city and state] it's the (insert family #2)!''

Seen above, this was Steve's opening spiel since September 2012.

A spin-off from Match Game, this show is where two families battle it out by answering surveys to win points. The first to reach a set number of points (mostly 300) gets a chance to play Fast Money for a grand cash prize. Each family has 5 members per team, except from 1994-1995, when there were only 4 members per team.

Face-Off
At the beginning of each round, two members of each family come up to the main podium and play a mini-round for control of the question called "Face-Off". The host announced how many answers are on the board (which are always in order based on popularity), and then read a survey question and the first player to buzz-in gets to answer. The player to give the number one answer or have his/her answer be higher than the other player's answer won control. In case of a tie (both answers with the same number of people who gave it) the player who answered first won control. If neither player gave an answer on the board, the players at the main podiums get a chance to answer for control.

For time reasons, during Louie Anderson's & (some of) Steve Harvey's tenure, if neither player's answer was on the board the question was thrown out, and a new one was played.

During Dawson's first version & the current version, the player that won the Face-Off has a decision to either let his/her family play the question or pass the question to their opponents.

Main Question
The family that won the face-off earns control of the question. The controlling family's job is to reveal the remaining answers hidden on the board with each correct answer adding points to the bank above the board. The answer's value is determined by how many people who gave it. Each player on the controlling team in turn gave an answer and if the answer he/she gave is correct, it is flipped over and revealed. Revealing all the answers on the board won the round (this is classified as a "Clean Sweep"). Giving a wrong answer at any time earned a strike; getting three strikes (one in the final round from 1999-2003) caused the team to lose control of the question, giving the opposing family a chance to steal by giving one correct answer. A successful steal won the round, but an unsuccessful steal gave the round to the first family. The winners of the round took all the points in the bank plus (in the pilot, from 1992-1995, and again from 1999-2003) the value of the correct answer given by the stealing family.

Question Values
The first few questions had its values be worth the number showing. Later on in the game, the values of all the questions would be doubled (the double value round wasn't available from 1999 to 2003); and still later, all the point values would be tripled (in the Dawson era and the first four years of the current version, the triple valued question would be the last question of the game).

Winning
The first family to reach a set number of points won the game. For most versions, the goal is 300 points. In the first season of the Dawson run and pilot episode, the goal was 200 points; but in the final season of the Dawson run, the goal was set to 400 points. (In the original Dawson version and his 1994 comeback, when the game takes too long to reach the 300/400 goal, Richard goes to the controlling family to tell them that each teammate has three seconds to answer once he reads the question to them during the TRIPLE Round. Beginning in 2003, when the 300 goal was restored, Karn only read the question once to both families upon Tripling the point values; though he did read it again after the captain of the stealing family gave an answer. In Karn's final season, whenever he read the question once, home viewers were shown the survey question at the bottom of the screen.) From 1999 to 2003 there was no goal; the team with the most points won the game, even though most families in this period reached the goal of 300 points. In addition, there was only one strike for the team in the triple round (round 4). This created a scenario in which a team could give an incorrect answer and still win if there were not enough points in the bank for the other team to win by a successful steal. Other times when an opposing family already had more points than the bank, if a controlling family gave an incorrect answer, the game would automatically end. Until 1992, dollars were used instead of points.

Lollipop Tree (Dawson '76 version only)
Due to Dawson giving away boxes of lollipops to some of the studio audience members, a Lollipop Tree was introduced from March 2, 1983 all the way through June 14, 1985, where a tree of Tootsie pops was placed next to the fifth player on each team. If he/she chose a lollipop, and if it had a black stem on the bottom, the family won a $100 bonus, which did not affect the outcome of the game. (NOTE: Originally, only one Lollipop in each tree had a black stem, but within weeks, there were ten on both trees.)

Bullseye/Bankroll Round & Sudden Death Question
Starting in 1992, Family Feud instituted a new Bullseye round. This was the round that affected the grand prize for either family if and when they make it to Fast Money. In this round, both families started with a bankroll of $5,000 ($2,500 in the first half of the Family Feud Challenge). Five questions were asked to each pair of family members in a Face-Off fashion, and only number one answers counted. The first player to buzz-in with the number one answer added money to their own Fast Money bank; this resulted in a possible $10,000 in the first half or $20,000 in the second half. The syndicated version used this round from 1992-1994, with the doubled values.

Scoring
Here how they scored for each question:

In the first half, each money amount increased in increments of $500. And in the 2nd half, each money amount increased in increments of $1,000.

Fast Money
The winning family went on to play Fast Money for a grand cash prize. The winning family chose which two players will play the game. The first family member stood at center stage while the second family member went off stage to a soundproof area. The first player has 15 seconds (later 20) to answer five Family Feud questions. He/she has to give the most popular answer to each question. When he/she was done, the answers were reveled on a different board followed by the number of people who gave them. After all the answers were revealed and scored, the second player came out and took his/her turn. The second player had 20 seconds (later 25) to answer the same five questions but with one exception: he/she cannot repeat any of the answers previously given by the first player or a double buzzer will sound, at which point the host says, "Try again." The contestant must give a different answer (the second player will also be charged for similar answers or an answer which fits into the same category as the first player's answer). When the second player was done, his/her answers were revealed and scored. The family wins $5 for each point made in the round, but if the two playing players reached 200 points or more, the family wins the grand cash prize.

NOTE: Very rarely, the first contestant from the winning family playing Fast Money would get 200 points and win the big money all by himself/herself. During Ray Combs' tenure, whenever that occurred, he would trick the second player into thinking that the first player did terribly and then ask him/her five phony ridiculous questions.

Grand Cash Prizes
The grand cash prizes were different depending on the series:


 * Daytime Versions (1976-1985, 1988-1992) - $5,000
 * Syndicated Versions (1977-1985, 1988-1992, 1999-2001) - $10,000
 * Current Version (2001-2009, 2010-present) - $20,000
 * CBS Gameshow Marathon Version (2006) - $100,000 for the player's charity (main game win), $50,000 for a home viewer (Fast Money win)
 * NBC Celebrity Version (2008) - $50,000 for a win, $25,000 for a loss (both for charity)

Bullseye/Bankroll
Here are the max values in terms of Bullseye/Bankroll money:


 * Combs Version (1992-1994): 1st Half - $10,000, 2nd Half/Syndicated (1992-1994) - $20,000
 * Dawson Version (1994-1995): 1st Half - $7,000, 2nd Half - $14,000
 * O'Hurley Version (2009-2010): $30,000

Returning Champions
On the ABC run, families retired from the show after winning over $25,000, a limit which had been lifted during the final season to $30,000. On the syndicated series from 1977-1985 and from 1999-2002, two new families competed on each show. From 1988-1992 and from 2002 onward, winning families could return for up to five days. From 1992-1995, families simply continued until defeated. (Similar to Jeopardy!'s rule on continous winning until defeated introduced in September 2003) Starting in September 2009, families who won 5 days in a row won a brand new car (Chrysler 300C from 2009-2010, Ford Taurus from 2010-2012, Ford Edge from 2012-). The color of the Ford Taurus from 2010-2011 was blue and the color of the Ford Taurus from 2011-2012 was in red.

All-Star/Gameshow Marathon/Celebrity Family Feud primetime specials
In all versions of the All-Star/Celebrity primetime specials, four celebrity teams (celebrities and their families also in the Al Roker version) competed to win money for their favorite charities.

In the Richard Dawson all-star series, there were three games a show. The first two games were played to 200 points, and the third one was a one question showdown; and the Fast Money round was played after each game; the first two Fast Money rounds were worth $5,000, and the third one was worth $10,000.

In the Ricki Lake Gameshow Marathon episode, finalists Kathy Najimy and Brande Roderick along with their families respectively, competed to score the first to 300 points just like the civilian version. The points doubled in round four and tripled in round five and so on. The Fast Money Money round was also played like the regular civilian version as well, with the first contestant having 20 seconds to answer all five survey questions while the other received 25 seconds. but unlike the civilian version, If one or both teams successfully reached their goal of 200 points or more in total, not only do they win $100,000 for the charity of their choice. but they also get to keep the Gameshow Marathon Championship trophy as well. Also, a home viewer won $50,000 if one or both contestsants in Fast Money were able to reach a score of 200 points or above. (NOTE: Kathy Najimy was the winner of the episode and the whole entire series in general.)

Charity specials
Special-themed weeks have been prominent during "sweeps" weeks through all incarnations of the show's long history. Among them are the following:

1976-1985
1977 - Game show hosts competed for $10,000 in cash for charity.

1988-1995
1988-1993 - The Price is Right & The Young & The Restless competed for $5,000 in the daytime edition and $10,000 in the night time edition.

1999-2002
1999 - Beauty vs. The Beast (Playboy vs. WCW).

1988-1994
The 1988–1994 version carried special tournaments for the four highest winning families from certain periods of time returning for a Winner-Take-All Tournament of Champions. These were rarely held at first for both the CBS and syndicated versions.

The main game rules applied, but if a family reached 200 points in Fast Money, $5,000 went into a jackpot that started at $25,000 and went up to potentially $55,000 on the CBS version. Likewise, on the syndicated version, the jackpot started at $50,000 and went up $10,000 for each time Fast Money was won, up to a possible $110,000. If the score was less than 200, nothing was added to the jackpot, as the $5 a point rule was discarded for the tournament. Each semifinal was the best-of-three games, with the first family in each one to win two games advancing to the finals, which was also a best-of-three match. There was no Fast Money round played during the finals. The scoring was similar to the 1984–1985 season (single-single-single-single-double-triple) or the regular CBS/Syndicated version from late 1989–1990 (single-single-single-double-triple) in the finals, with the first family to reach $400 winning the game instead of $300. The first family to win two out of three games won everything in the jackpot in addition to what they won in the regular game. Again, no Fast Money was played.

No additional tournaments were conducted on the syndicated version after the second season. The CBS version continued conducting them, but in mid-1990, tournaments were held every month, with the top four money-winning families of the previous month returning. The main game point goals for winning a semifinal and a final game were the same, but the match format was changed from the best-of-three to a one-game match for both the semifinals and the finals. Thus, the potential maximum was lowered to $35,000.

2002-present
The current version began doing tournaments in 2002. The first occurred in May 2002 with the Family Circle Tournament of Champions, with eight winning families returning in a single-elimination tournament. The jackpot started at $50,000 and went up $20,000 for each time Fast Money was won, up to a possible $170,000. For this particular tournament only, if Fast Money was not won, $5 per point was added to the jackpot. Each game was played to 300 points except for the finals, which required 500 points to win the game and the jackpot. The winning team for this tournament won a trip to Charleston, South Carolina and tickets to the Family Circle Cup women's tennis tournament in nearby Daniel Island, in addition to the money, which was $112,230. The runners-up for this tournament won a trip to Jamaica.

This version, however, did not do tournaments on an occasional basis until May 2005. Again, eight families were brought back, but this time, they consisted of either families who previously lost their first game for the tournament that was held in May 2005 and May 2006, or previously winning families, but not necessarily focusing on the higher winning families of the past for the tournament held in February 2006. The differences at this point for the tournaments were that the jackpot started with nothing, except for the February 2006 Tournament of Champions, which began at $10,000 and went up $20,000 for each time Fast Money was won, up to a possible $130,000. Losses in Fast Money did not add anything to the jackpot, as in the 1988–1994 version, and the championship game was played to 400 points and used the 4 singles-double-triple round format (with Sudden Death if applicable). Trips were sometimes awarded to the jackpot-winning family, including Hawaii during the February 2006 tournament and Mexico during the May 2006 tournament. Again, no Fast Money was played in the finals.

There was an opening phrase for Family Feud's Big Money Tournament which was: "This is Joey Fatone, it's time for Family Feud's Big Money Tournament presented by Publisher's Clearing House. Give it up for Steve Harvey!". The tournament format did not return again until 2013, where the jackpot started at $40,000 and could get as high as $160,000 and was sponsored by Publishers Clearing House. The Fast Money round was won 6 times in a row and had it built up to $160,000. As before, there was no Fast Money round that played in the finals, and the first team to reach 400 points won the jackpot of $160,000 and the runners-up received $20,000.

The Original Board
For a span of the first 20 years, Family Feud used a trilon game board. Two sides of the board had twelve flip panels (six in each column) used for revealing answers during the main game (though no question ever had 12 answers, the most was 10), one of those sides was covered up by the show's logo during the opening and was taken down backstage when the opening was finished, and the words "double" & "triple" were placed on both sides of the main game board to indicate that the values were either doubled or tripled, and the third was a digital board which displayed the show's title and was used for Fast Money. During the opening and sometimes closing of the show, the digital board had an animated light pattern: The original Dawson series had its board light up/turn off one row at a time, while the 1988-1994 series had their board light up/turn off in a "four square-like" manner. This was not used for the closing, but was used for the closing of the 1994-1995 series. For most of the series, the digital board in neutral title mode was displayed in yellow on black, but in the pilot and in the early episodes of the Combs run, the board displayed black on yellow.

Alterations
All Versions: In the 1975 pilot, the trilon board was housed in a box-like shape, with all three numerical displays (the bank & family's scores) up top. Under the board were three little boxes which were used to display the strikes. The number sides of the flip panels had the numbers sandwiched between 2 triangles. They were similar to that of Match Game the show that gave us Family Feud, and the unplayed panels were tan with a pale blue circle in them. When the show became a series in 1976 and lasting until 1994, the trilon board was now housed inside the now familiar blue oval with rectangles sticking out of either side to make room for the family's scoreboards (the bank was still at the top as it had always been; plus, the strikes were now superimposed). The oval board has chasing lights which lit up from the center to the ends; one of the top sides would light up when a family won the round and the entire side would light up when a family has won the game. While the Dawson shows always had their lights turned off, the Combs shows turned on theirs when it was time to play Fast Money and continued to have them turned on during the final segment of the show.

Today's Board
When the show returned in 1999 after a four year hiatus and to keep up with the times, the trilon/digital board was replaced with a single TV monitor which like the digital board in the 1994-1995 run did all jobs. The bank display returned to holding three digits until 2010, when all displays became computerized. The main game board still held eight answers and the number sides still had the same look from before. The unplayed slots were the same, but they just don't have numbers on them; from 1999-2010, the bottom two slots were replaced with one large slot with the word "DOUBLE" or "TRIPLE" on it to indicate affection of the values; these days only the sudden death question had the large "TRIPLE" slot below since there was only one answer needed to be given. The Fast Money board is completely computer-animated: it has ten black slots to house the answers & ten black squares on the right to house the point scores (the scores next to the right side answers on the original versions used to be on the left), and one additional slot for the total scores. For individual reveals, a red square was used to reveal the answers and ending up in the point square and it accompanies the now familiar reveal sound; the square disappeared when the value was revealed. While the face-off podium was seen for the entire show in the past, for the current era, it would be removed for the remainder of the show.

Alterations
Louie's Era: When Louie Anderson was the host, the monitor was a projection TV housed inside a oval-like square with chase lights on it. It was located on a wall which doubled as an opening for host Anderson to go through. Not only that, the bank was now in blue eggcrate mode (the toteboards used to be in a Ferranti-Packer font), while the family's scoring displays in the same font were now shown on their podiums. For the final season of this run and continuing into Karn's run, the show's logo would be seen on the floor, similar to Combs' run.

Sounds
The strike buzzer, the correct answer clang and the win bells were recycled from a previous ABC Goodson-Todman game show, Showoffs.

The Face-Off buzzer sound was used in a few other Goodson-Todman shows such as Child's Play, Classic Concentration, Trivia Trap & Chuck Henry's Now You See It.

Spin-Offs
Gameshow Marathon - Family Feud was the finale of the 7 games.

¿Que Dice la Gente? - The short-lived Spanish language revival that aired on Telefutura from 2006 to 2008.

Celebrity Family Feud - A nighttime hour-long six-episode summer series that aired on NBC in 2008 with teams of celebrities playing for charity. All but one episode aired. The new graphics and music this show had were incorporated into the current syndicated version.

2003 (Unused) - John Lewis Parker, based on the 1988 theme by Edd Kalehoff

The 1976 main was originally a prize cue by Walt Levinsky on The Price is Right and when Mark Goodson heard it, it inspired him to create this show.

The last few notes of the 1976 theme are currently being used on The Price is Right as the introduction to Grand Game; they were also used for a brief period as the intro to Plinko. Trivia Trap also used these notes for getting all the wrong answers eliminated. For a brief time in the 1990s, the 1988 theme's end notes replaced those from the 1976 theme in the aforementioned Grand Game introduction.

The 1994 opening vamps as well the unused main themes from the 1994 version were recycled into the daytime and 1994 versions of The Price is Right as showcase cues.

Although the 2003 main is unused, replaced with the 1988 main, the face-off cue was still used on the show.

From 1999-2006, the main theme song had a hip-hop music style that used electric guitars or saxophones.

From 2006-2008, the main theme song had a remix of the hip-hop music style with a disco music style. The winning cues were recycled from 2002-2006.

Trivia
When Richard Dawson, Ray Combs, Richard Karn, and John O'Hurley goes to the controlling family after the face-off question, they sometimes don't use the word "Name" when asking the same question to the family member.

When Richard Dawson and Ray Combs start asking the 5 questions in the fast money round, they don't use the word "Name" for the 2nd-5th questions. Richard Karn would do that sometimes during the fast money round, too.

Example: "Name something that has buttons", (player gives answer), "an animal that eats plants", (player gives 2nd answer), "something specific that melts", (player gives 3rd answer), "a sport that's played indoors", (player gives 4th answer), "something you see in the summer time", (player gives 5th answer).

The famous "Blip" sound effect from the Fast Money round when an answer was revealed on its Ferranti-Packard (1976-1995) and Visually-styled (1999-present) board, made its debut in the 1988-1994 Combs version and has been used since then. However, out of all the previous incarnations of the show, it was never used in the original 1976-1985 Dawson version.

The buttons on the face-off podium in the original 1976-1985 Dawson version were always colored yellow. as they were never red until the 1988-1994 Combs version and all of the other previous incarnations since then. In the 2006 "Feud" episode of Gameshow Marathon, the buttons on the face-off podium were also colored red as well.

This is the 2nd game show where John O'Hurley and Burton Richardson both worked together from 2006-2010. The 1st game show they worked together on was the 2000-2002 revival of To Tell the Truth.

Both the Combs and Dawson '94 versions of the show were the only two incarnations of the franchise to nix The "Play or Pass/Pass or Play" option for which after a contestant in the Face-Off guessed the top answer or if the opposing contestant guessed a better answer than the one before. His/Her family are then forced to play the question out until they get three strikes. However, Four years later, the "Play or Pass/Pass or Play" option returned in the 1999-2002 version with Louie Anderson at the helm and all other previous incarnations since then.

In the 1994-1995 Dawson version, (excluding the original Dawson '76 and Combs versions) the original team size was reduced from five to four. Three years later, the original size returned in the 1999-2002 Anderson version and all the other incarnations have kept it since then.

For the 1976-1985 Dawson version, in order to boost the show's sagging ratings for both the ABC daytime and syndicated versions in the 1984-1985 season, they extended the amount of points needed in order to win the game from 300 to 400. Sadly, the ratings for both versions were being hammered-in by the likes of The Price is Right on CBS and Wheel of Fortune in syndication. However, the 400 point format later returned in the "Tournament of Champions" finale (for which the Fast Money round was excluded in the episode) of the Combs, Karn, O'Hurley and Harvey versions since then.

It takes at least 3 rounds to reach 300 points, but normally it took 4 rounds to reach 300 points.

Fast Money got played early 4 times. It happened at least 3 times with Richard Karn and once with John O'Hurley and the 3 family teams that won at least 300 points in just 3 rounds won $20,000 in Fast Money.

After the 1st run of Fast Money, Richard Karn would bring out the 2nd Fast Money contestant after the 4th commercial break while John O'Hurley brought out the 2nd Fast Money contestant before the 4th commercial break.

The Cunnigham family was the very first team to win a brand new car in 2009.

"So, the Mackins were our final winning family, and they've won $5,504, and I'm proud of 'em. I've had the most incredible luck in my career. I've done lots and lots of jobs, and I've never, ever had a job like Family Feud. I've never dreamed I would ever have a job where so many people could touch me and I could touch them (Audience laughing). And it is...a great magic about this show that I've never seen on any other show. I want to publicly acknowledge Howard Felsher, who's our executive producer. He was a producer in the beginning of the show, and he helped steer and guide the way that we went. and he and I fall a lot of times, but I tell you that he is important and I should acknowledge him, because he was the one, with me, that, we said, "Let anybody come on this show, anyone that could play this game, no matter what color or creed, no matter if they're in a wheelchair or they have no sight!" And we had everybody on this show, and he was very, very important in that I acknowledge and thank him for it. I thanked my crew, and I thanked my director already. I had the best staff you've ever dreamed of. You can't...but you don't have to dream of them, 'cause I'm gonna take them with me. Even if I never work again, they'll just be near me (Audience laughing) They are so special and wonderful. ABC - Jackie Smith, Wally Weltmen, Joe C. Albott - they kept us on the air probably a year more than they should have, 'cause were weren't really helping them. You know, our ratings weren't that good. and they were so great. They buried themselves carrying us, and I love them for that. not that I wanted to hurt 'em, but I...'cause I love 'em. They were good people. There were people I know that got upset that I kiss people; I kiss them for luck and love, that's all. That's what my mother did to me. There were people upset that I would embrace or hug someone of a different color. (smacks lips) The first time I ever saw people of any color was when D-Day left from my hometown in England, to go and free Europe from the war. And there was every color you could imagine, and I'd not seen that in England. And I asked my mother about it; I said, "Is there something wrong?" she said, "God...God makes people. you understand that don't you?" And I said, "Yeah!" She said, "Who makes a rainbow?" I said, "God." She said, "I never presumed to tell anyone who could make a rainbow what color to make children!" and she changed my whole life with that statement. All I can tell you is, this has been a very special nine years of my life! If I never do another thing, I've met the good, sweet people of the world. So I leave you with love, and for the little girl, that, nine years ago I first signed to - I guess she's 13 now - I'll think of you everyday (camera snapshot). God bless all the little children in the world. Thank You." - Richard Dawson (from his emotional farewell speech from the 1985 season finale.)

You thought I was a loser until you walked up here. You made me feel like a man. Tim, give me your hand." - Ray Combs (on the Tran family only getting 77 points in Fast Money and left the stage after signing off in the 1994 season finale.)
