‘What’s Sexier When It’s in Black’ and Other Funny Moments of Steve Harvey’s ‘Family Feud

In honor of Steve Harvey's 67th birthday, we look back at some of the show's most hilarious answers.

Since 2010, Harvey has been the host of โ€œFamily Feud,โ€ the hilarious game show that asks families to guess the most popular answers to survey questions for the chance to win cash and a new car. And their answers, which can be both hilarious and ridiculous, often go viral on social media. The show, which has spent five consecutive seasons as the number one first-run syndicated show with women 25-54, was just renewed through the 2025-26 season.
