My impression of modern Family Feud is that they just ask bait questions that intentionally elicit suggestive/gross answers just so Steve Harvey can pretend to have a conniption whenever a contestant guesses one of those answers and gets it right.

These day time game shows used to be so mild and the kind of thing my grandpa would watch. Now daytime shows are just as trashy as Jerry Springer was back in the day

There was an old maybe 70s or 80s game show with couples. Like the newlywed or match maker games. I remember a “what’s the strangest place you made whoopie?” And the lady was like “umm in the butt.”

Yeah, used to enjoy the show, but can’t stand it since Harvey took hold. Nothing (much) against the guy, but the schtick quickly grew extremely old - you’ve seen one ep, you’ve seen 'em all. But I guess I’m too old to be the target demographic anymore.

I don’t pay him enough attention to know, but I did say that I didn’t have much against him. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a far worse person than I care to know, all things considered. Unfortunately, there’s WAY too many of them to keep track of nowadays - my brain’s already past capacity at this point.

Bait questions are not new to the show or the genre
