After His Wife Gave A Questionable Answer, A 'Family Feud' Contestant Almost Walked Off The Show
It seems one of the best parts of watching live TV, especially game shows, is watching some of those unexpected moments that take everyone off-guard. Viewers also love playing along with the guests to see how well they might do on certain game shows.
While appearing on Family Feud, one woman gave an answer that seemed to almost cause her husband to walk off the show. It appeared he was just kidding, and probably trying to get a few more laughs - which he did.
According to Good Housekeeping, the category was: "name a reason a woman might not want her husband on her team for Family Feud." The Harris family was answering.
Their first two responses were incorrect: "he likes the spotlight too much", and "he sleeps too much". After this it was up to Cynthia Harris to guess the correct answer.
With two strikes against her team staring Cynthia Harris down in the form of two red Xs, she said the first thing that she could think of. In front of her husband, Michael, Harris said, "She's embarrassed by the way he looks."
Her husband's response was immediate. He began walking away as though he was so angry he was walking off the show. But after he walked a little ways, he turned around and came back to stand with the rest of his family, smiling.
Host Steve Harvey, shocked by her answer, was speechless at first. Then he said, "Yeah, Mike. Yeah, yeah." The other family, the Crums, then had a chance and correctly guessed "because he's too competitive."
The other correct answers in the category were: "cheats at games", "too smart", "too racy", "doesn't listen" and "blabs/secrets".
Fans Love Steve Harvey's Reactions, But Sometimes Think He Goes Too Far
There are several game shows that have been around for decades with the same host. These shows, such as Jeopardy! and The Price is Right, have continued even after the retirement of their incredibly popular hosts, because they are loved by millions of fans.
People enjoy watching to guess the answers and to see how the contestants will respond to questions. Fans also enjoy seeing how hosts respond to certain answers. Steve Harvey rarely disappoints viewers with his reactions to some of the guesses given on Family Feud.
However, as much as fans love Harvey's humorous reactions, apparently sometimes they think he takes things a little too far. For example, according to Meaww, one contestant on the show was asked "when people fall asleep at night, tell me something they're still clutching in their hands."
The contestant, Tracy, paused for a little bit before saying, "I really don't want to say it... but, 'themselves.'" Hearing her response, Harvey commented, "People watch this in the daytime," before it was then revealed her answer was correct.
"Appendage" showed up on the board as one of the answers, and the host asked Tracy, "What is appendage?" Fans didn't seem to like how Harvey had joked about her response. Some viewers also commented about how the questions are formed.
On social media, one person commented, "U ask this type of question n still say it's Family Feud." Another fan wrote, "Wait when did it become a family show?"
Another viewer wrote, "A few days ago, the Family Feud Instagram posted a clip of Steve asking 'Something that starts with 'P' that somebody might do to your bottom?'"
However, fans have loved watching Steve Harvey host Family Feud over the years, including his hilarious reactions to some of the funnier answers. Viewers watching the show will probably be treated to even more surprising answers as they continue watching Family Feud.
