I've seen 3 or 4 episodes of The Family Feud in which Steve Harvey introduces a family and states they are returning to the show due to "technical difficulties." Does anyone know what these technical difficulties could be? I've sporadically watched previous versions of Family Feud and don't remember that being said before.

It could mean anything but it's probably due to a complaint made by the family in regards to an answer they gave that the judges didn't accept and after further review decided that the complaint was valid and brought them back. I believe Jeopardy has done the same with some of their contestants.

It's a standard procedure for any game show if there's a mistake on the production end. It's also a good move because the contestants get a second shot.
