- Family Feud fans slam show for ‘getting desperate’ and picking families who give ‘idiotic’ answers (mp.newsbreakapp.com)
Local Family Feud fans are questioning the show’s contestant selection process after a recent episode. The Baez family’s answers to a survey question left viewers scratching their heads.
The question posed by host Steve Harvey was, “Name something you say on a date even if you don’t mean it.” While one family member successfully answered “I love you,” the rest of the family struggled.
After choosing to play the round, the Baez family offered up answers like “I’ll pay for dinner,” “I’ll pick you up at 8 o’clock,” and even “I’m married.” None of these were on the survey board.
Online, viewers expressed disbelief at the responses, with some wondering if the show has lowered its standards for contestants. One commenter questioned if there’s a “stupidity test” applicants need to pass. Another found the answers “idiotic.”
The Baez family ultimately struck out, giving the opposing Dinardo family a chance to steal. The Dinardos correctly guessed “I’m having a great time,” securing their victory.
The remaining answers on the board included common date phrases like “See again/Call,” “So interesting,” and “Nice to meet you.” The episode has sparked a debate among local viewers about the quality of contestants on the popular game show.
