The Statlers' bass singer Harold Reid plays the host in a goofy parody of the late Richard Dawson as Richie Kissy who hits on the Mandrell sisters excessively by kissing them at each and every turn and tilted the game ridiculously in their favor while treating the other three Statler brothers as "butt monkeys".
NOTE: Thirteen years later, both the Mandrells and the Statlers actually appeared on the show hosted by the late Ray Combs during a special week in Opryland in 1993.

The story does not end happily, however; the Ericksons ultimately lose to their opponents on (largely) her answer to the question "Name Something You Use Scouring Powder on", "Windows". The remaining answer in fact was "Toilet".
NOTE: Much of that same episode ultimately resurfaced on YouTube and as a result the unidentifiable opposing family was finally identified as The Dolvens.

Starting with the top three answers on the board Peaches didn't finish reading the question due to Heffer's interruptions by ringing-in and answering "Sea Monkeys" which failed to make the survey. Then Heffo says "poopourri!" which again also didn't make the survey as well but Heffer says the show's actual catchphrase to his made up wife Heffo "Good Answer!". Peaches (in frustration) screams "SILENCE! You will wait until I read the..." as both Heffo and Heffa ring-in and say again at the same time "Sea Monkeys!" and of course that didn't make it on the board as well. In the end, Heffer shouts "On to the next round, come on Peaches." as Heff's made up family disappears as Peaches smacks his face with his hand.

In a 2015 episode (originally April 28, 2015) of The Nostalgia Critic (Doug Walker) reviewing the action/adventure 2005 film The Legend of Zorro, in the scene where Zorro and Elena Montero (played by Antonio Banderas and Catherine-Zeta Jones respectively) fight against the bad guys. Both Zorro and Elena, at one point, use their swords to carve out their first letters on a guy's pants by his butt cheeks. The critic then shouts the show's actual catchphrase "Survey Says..." as it briefly cuts to a survey board from the current Harvey era with the top six answers on it showing the top answer on the board only that says "Pretty Lame" (with no people agreeing in the survey) as the Critic says that particular scene in general was "Pretty lame, that was pretty lame".
Since September 2015, a game show channel Buzzr has their annual marathon called "Lost & Found" where in the promo, the 1988-94 face-off podium from the Combs era can be briefly seen as "Behind an abandoned podium".
NOTE:
"The phantom door #4" from Let's Make a Deal can also be seen in the promo.
In 2017, rapper JAY-Z (a.k.a. HOVA & JIGGA) had a brand new rap song called "ironically enough" Family Feud (which can be heard on his album 4:44) featuring his wife Beyonce (doing vocals of course) who also had a brief reference to its current host who claims that "But my stash can't fit into Steve Harvey's suit".
On a April 10, 2019 episode of The Goldbergs called I Lost on Jeopardy!, a clip of Feud (Dawson) can be briefly seen on television.
NOTES: Other game shows that were seen in the montage were: The New Newlywed Game, Pyramid, Wheel of Fortune, The Joker's Wild, Tic Tac Dough (Martindale), Press Your Luck and of course Jeopardy!
On the October 4, 2019 episode of Teen Titans Go! called "Cartoon Feud", the Teen Titans (Robin, Cyborg, Beast Boy, Starfire and Raven) go on the Feud to face off against the Scooby gang (Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy and Scooby-Doo). The Titan's nemesis Control Freak is the host of the show, though it uses the Dawson era-style set and the current theme song.
An April 10, 2020 episode of The Annoying Orange had Orange, Pear, Midget Apple, Grandpa Lemon and Grapefruit all competing on a parody of the Feud called "Family Food" (not to be confused with the Sesame Street parody from 1981 or the Burger King promotion from 2012 respectively). The host was a knife named Steve Carvey, who is a parody of Steve Harvey. Instead of $20,000 being the grand prize, the prize on this version was a motorboat, which Orange does a lot of with his mouth. The fruits face off against the vegetables (a broccoli, a squash, a carrot, a cucumber and a red pepper). The fruits wound up winning the game, despite Orange's annoying antics. However, the giant motorboat lands on the vegetables and Carvey once the game ends. Orange then replies "Holy Ship!" (a reference to the actual profane word "Holy S*it") and laughs, much to the annoyance of his friends.
In 2021, the third season of the remake of 80s cult-classic game show Press Your Luck (2019 version) on ABC hosted by Elizabeth Banks has a short Whammy animation where their was a brief parody of the show under the name Whamily Feud where a whammy portraying as current host Steve Harvey asks a survey question to his two contestants: "Top answer's on the board, what are you?". The female contestant Whammy rings in as she answers "Broke!" the Harvey Whammy then replies with the old catch phrase "Survey says..." as the board flips around with the message "You're Broke!" as the three whammies say in unison that "You're Broke!" to the contestant and laughs at there expense.
NOTES:
The actual Feud theme plays during the animation.
Both shows are own by its parent company Fremantle.
