    By HollyTurnerHe, 3 days ago Report Abuse
    Although i enjoy the show, i remember when Family Feud was actually a "family" show. As i watch it today, i am very disappointed that the show now has a sexual content to most questions...It's to where it's not appropriate for my son to watch!!! I wish those who create the show will see that and adjust its content. There are even children on the show having to answer such questions...It's terrible!!! Very disappointing!!!!moreless

    Continuing my little story: "The show starts with it's catchy music and freindly, smiling people. So, then the host comes on, and is about to ask a question. The kids get excited and say they are going to answer it right, and the parents laugh. Suddenly, the host begins to ask the question. The whole family gets quiet and listens. The host asks: "What are 5 things you would ask someone at a strip club?" The kids look puzzled and the parents switch the channel to jepordy."
    Did you like my story? Well, this event could be true. Today's Family Fued episodes are not for the family anymore, no there for people who want to learn about sex. -__- Here's the problems.
    Problem #1 The Host- I don't know his name, but this new host is very annoying. He talks and talks and talks to the contestants like he's drunk or something, and doesn't get to the game. Also, he constantly brings up or hints suggestive themes, that kids don't need to know about. Sometimes, the things he says arent even inappropriate, he just won't shuttup about it! Watch some old Family Feuds with your family on DVD or something.
    Problem #2 The New Questions- Almost all of these questions now are more steered toward adults. Questions include, "What would you ask someone at a strip club?" "How many years older do you look each morning?" and other very strange questions. Kids can't have fun watching this show anymore! They need to fix this.
    There is one compliment with this show.
    Compliment #1 Main Game- Now, this right here, regardless of the host or questions, is the reason this show keeps getting a 10 be reveiwers. It's because this show's gameplay is very intriquing and fun. It's always entertaining to see the most popular answers and just have fun. That's why I still watch this show. Because the show's game is amazingly clever and entertaining. Maybe one day they'll actually read this reveiw and fire the host and change the questions, and then I can give this show a 10!
