The NCIS alum slammed the ABC game show, tweeting: "Dear @FamilyFeudABC I love @SteveHarveyFM and I love game shows. WHY DO YOU MAKE YOU PROGRAM SO FILTHY? Even with child players? No reason ... I’m a sociologist, love @FamilyFeudABC but WHY WHY are all the questions now filthy and sex questions? There’s so much more to humans. Cmon."

So true.

Harvey Feud is perverted and disgusting.

DJM77 · 08-16-2018, 05:45 AM

She's right. I can't make myself watch Harvey Feud.

Willbo · 08-16-2018, 08:58 AM

I have to agree. Tired of the smut. It should be renamed The Feud.

Torgo · 08-16-2018, 01:45 PM

I was never a fan of Steve Harvey, so I never watched his version to begin with.

Edward216 · 08-17-2018, 05:52 AM

She's absolutely right. I haven't watched it in years, it's basically become game show porn.

Unfortunately there is some idiot somewhere who would think the show is great. I am too turned off by foolishness like this. Most of my tv quiz/game show watching is on Buzzr of shows 40+ years ago where the hosts were gentlemen.

I do agree the questions on the current incarnation of Family Feud have become more raunchier. But look at it this way. Steve Harvey is the right host for the show, saving it from cancellation. To me, he does what great hosts like Bill Cullen, Bob Barker and Bob Eubanks do well, listen and react. Harvey's very funny reactions have been the key to the resurgence of one of the best game show formats ever invented.

Coffeecup · 08-17-2018, 10:36 AM

Howilu I disagree. I say having a gentlemen host is far more important then having a game show host that encouraged smutty answers. This show brings in the lowest IQ level. I am surprised after 4o some odd years it is still on the air. If it brings in great ratings. one of the viewers isn't me.

No he isn't. Richard Karn and John O'Hurley were my favorite hosts, and it was still a generally family friendly show then. But Harvey has ruined it, Feud would have been better off cancelled rather than him taking over. And GSN might still be a better network if his Feud hadn't taken up way too much of it.

I really liked Karn and O'Hurley, too....Karn a little more.

As far as classic Feud, I like Dawson and Combs.

The host I prefer over Dawson or Combs would have to be Richard Dawson. Haven't seen the Karn version yet though.
