Family Feud: Pass or Play? (1 Viewer)

Steve Harvey is the reason I watch the show. Dude is hilarious! Sometimes he tries too hard but that's no worse than Dawson sucking face.

And I agree, the crowd reading the answers is annoying.

My strategy would be to pass every time for 5 or more answers.

no man here should be a fan of steve Harvey. this is the guy who wrote books telling women not to #### their significant others for 3 months or some crap. the guy's man card should've been revoked a long time ago.

It seems the contestants always elect to play, but that doesn't seem very smart to me.

I think I'd pass every time unless there are only four answers, maybe five. Playing with six or seven answers just seems nuts though.

And in those situations where I'd want to pass, I'd make sure not to buzz first and, when you are asked to answer 2nd, make sure wait too long and get buzzed so the other team starts with only one answer instead of two.

So, would you guys pass or play more often?

Anybody know of any extensive research that's been done on this very important topic?

I don't know about Family Feud, but Slate has one for every game on The Price Is Right

What makes Harvey the best Feud host is that the other hosts would pretend that the contestant's utterly stupid answer was in some way good and stood a chance, albeit a small one, to be on the board. Harvey doesn't play this game. Instead he ridicules the contestant as they rightly should be ridiculed. Often he can do expertly do this with just a look.

We played Family Feud at our gigantic family reunion this summer. They made me be the host.

The reason why you play is because you most likely use all the easy answers during your round, or you get them all. Then the other team either comes up with the obscure answer 3 people already missed, or you get the points.

 
I've had most of a week with the flu to do some more research. I've come to a couple of conclusions.

1. This thread was silly, and playing is almost always the best option. I know that was common knowledge to everyone else, but I had to be convinced.

2. Steve Harvey is truly fantastic. Can't compare to Dawson because I just don't remember him too much. It's just a completely different show when it's Harvey vs. Peterman, the tool guy, or Louie.

 
Say what you want about Steve Harvey he's probably making a bigger impact on daytime tv then anyone is on late night. Judge Judy makes double anyone on late-night. Harvey knocking on that door.

You never watched enough of Dawson. He did this all the time and it was so natural and likable.

1. What chance do you have of dating a girl who's a 10?

Seriously, what kind of question is this? And how did the random number "Five" get 31 people to pick it? Why did she guess a number? Wouldn't words like "slim", "none", "never happen" been in the mix?

Girl got screwed that every one of those had one "duh" answer and you'd have to struggle for a second one, and the top picks were all gone.

Edit: video cut out that the full question was "we asked 100 single men, on a scale of 1 to 10..."

Yeah, that's always a bad spot to be in, and she got caught with 5 of them.

"Debt" for the last one was her best hope, but she was pretty frazzled by then.
