Family Feud is an American television game show created by Mark Goodson. It features two families who compete to name the most popular answers to survey questions. The show has had three separate runs, the first of which started in 1976. The original run from 1976 to 1985 aired on ABC and in syndication, with Richard Dawson as host. In 1999, the series was revived through its first-run syndication with four different hosts: Louie Anderson (1999–2002), Richard Karn (2002–2006), John O'Hurley (2006–2010), and Steve Harvey (2010–present)
