Title: your favorite screwball Family Feud answer
Post by: Superballer on June 13, 2013, 09:19:04 PM
By now it's a safe bet many if not most of us have seen all the crazy Feud answers on the various compilation shows; of all of them, encompassing all the shows, which ones would you call your own personal favorite?  My own choice would be the guy who thought a famous Willie would have to be "Willie the Pooh."

"During what month of pregnancy does a woman begin to look pregnant?"
"September."

That's the all time classic, and it was enough to make Richard Dawson lose it completely.

In a 1985 episode, Richard asked "Name something you might talk about with a stranger."  The contestant said "mutual friends" and Richard cracked a joke at it at first, but when the next face-off came around, he broke down laughing at the thought of having a conversation about someone one thinks a complete stranger also knows.

"Tell me how old you think Ronald Reagan looks."

"Eighty."

I wonder if Ronnie even knew that was going on...

But, it makes semi-sense. If you're at a party where you only know the host and possibly a few others, you could say "How do you know the host?" I understand that it still isn't that great of an answer, but still, there's been much worse.

One of my favorites would have to be "Name a yellow fruit": "Orange".  :oldlol: Also, the whole "How old are you?" moment was definitely hilarious, but that was multiple dumb answers.  :P

"Peter."

"Name an article of clothing children always lose."
"Their pants."
"The price of a dozen roses"
"$1.75."
"Besides a bird, name something in a birdcage."
"Hamster."
(timer stops)
(beat) "Make a note of this show."

"Tell me a man's name that starts with the letter K."
"Kentucky Fried Chicken."

"Name something you bury in the backyard."
"Placenta."

"We asked 100 men...name a body part that's bigger than it was when you were 16."
"Your penis."

"Name something a burglar doesn't want to see when he enters a house."

"Naked Grandma!!"

And it was actually on the survey (Gun/Occupant)..........Even Steve Harvey was flabbergasted to notice that it was on there. Though that contestant didn't really have to say that, I thought that it was a very funny screwball answer.

My favorite "They accepted that?" reaction was when they accepted "Porn star" for "Actor".

How about when "Nookie" was given for "A word that rhymes with Cookie"? That got 23 points in Fast Money.

There was a question where Richard Dawson said "Name something made of leather....", which wasn't the complete question, and the contestant buzzed in and said "a purse". Richard said he would be slightly embarrassed when he finished the question, which was "Name something made of leather that a cowboy uses".  :oldlol:

Today's rerun of Family Feud had another award-winning answer:

"Fill in the blank:  When I was a kid, we didn't have ____."

The contestant buzzed in and said "s***".  (It was on the survey as "any money".)

Old, sweet grandma: ... b!tch.
Max: b!tch? How can you call b!tch for money?
Old, sweet grandma: ... mommy?
Max: No, not mommy. Money!

"September."

I think that one is pretty up there along with the time a family member was asked "give me a time someone goes to bed." And the contestant said "night". Then to add insult to injury they were asked "give me a time someone gets up out of bed." And they said "morning".

Then to add insult to injury they were asked "give me a time someone gets up out of bed." And they said "morning".

But that one actually scored points! 

EDIT:  Actually, I think those were the other way around.  He got 2 points for "night".

Contestant: Anus

"We asked 100 women, name something your husband is holding when he falls asleep on the chair"
Contestant: Himself

"Name an animal that can describe a person."

The last two scored points!!

One of my favorite Ray Combs moments, from a daytime Family Feud Challenge:

One of the fast money questions was "Name a liquid you drink when you're sick."  The contestant said "Vicks" and the judge didn't hear what the contestant's answer was.  Ray then did a great improvised buildup to the reveal, "He said 'Vicks,' they drink Vicks VapoRub on your chest, it's lethal, judge.  He said he drinks Vicks, and if anyone at home tries it, please be sure to call the number on the bottom of the jar."  The contestant scored no points, but it was a fun reveal.

From across the pond:

"Name a way of toasting someone."
"Over a fire."
"I'll tell you what, if it's there, I'll give you the money meself!"

(Turns out, it's at the bottom of the survey for 12 pounds.)

Another one from around that era (I think it was New Family Feud, though, not sure):

Combs: Describe the weather with a word or phrase that could also describe your wife.
Contestant: Wet.
Combs: (to audience) "Wet." (audience erupts)

Post by: crash1984 on July 01, 2013, 07:23:14 PM
My favorite Family Feud dumb answer bit went like this.

Name an animal with three letters in its name-Frog
Something found in the refridgerator-Milk
A brand of gasoline-Regular
Something that comes with a summer storm-Snow

Of those answers only Milk was the good one. When the next person comes up Richard says "You can't and don't want to duplicate his answers"

Name an animal with three letters in its name-Alligator
Something found in the refirdgerator-Ice
A brand of gasoline-Ethyl
Something that comes with a summer storm-Rain
A sport with an all star game-football

Also there was the time the question was "Name a question such as how old are you that people may lie about the answer" and everyone thought the question was "Name a lie someone may give to the question how old are you". From that point on they reworded the question to something along the lines of "How old are you is a question people may lie about the answer, name another question where people may lie about the answer"

Also from Family Fortunes:
"Name something associated with The X-Files." After a brief pause, Les Dennis went, "We could show a clip of it, you know."
"It's on television!"
