CBS Daytime: June 15, 1992 - March 26 [September 10], 1993

After close to four years, it was decided that the daytime Family Feud would be expanded to an hour with a slightly modified format: two families compete in the first half-hour, with the winners facing the returning champs in the second half. The big change was to the scoring: the game was now played for points, with the teams building up Fast Money banks through Bullseye.

The addition of Bullseye also resulted in another change: the display at the top of the survey board expanded from three to four digits. Apparently, this was because the board itself was supposed to be used for Bullseye with said display showing the different amounts up for grabs before they opted to make Bullseye a separate prop.

In the end, I think Family Feud Challenge feels like an evolution of the format rather than a last-ditch attempt, even though some stations (including WWMT in Michigan) only aired the second half. GSN aired repeats from about December 9, 1996-October 1997 (weekdays at 4:00 PM, weekends at 4:00 AM), and yet...this version's so hard to find. Hm.

 * [Lopez family is a different one from the Hooker/Sauder/Lopez show. One partial promo is for the CBS Schoolbreak Special Love Off Limits (teens fighting against censorship), first aired January 19, 1993. It's possible this promo is for a repeat, but the promo at the end is for a new episode of In the Heat of the Night, aired January 20.]
