Yeah, not a fan of the double scheduling of Family Feud US for Thursdays & Fridays, wonder if they could air classic eps of Neighbours in that slot or literally anything else really.
If the American version of Family Feud rates ok, could you see 10 reviving the show again?
Not as a 5 nights a week format, maybe for a series of specials. Doubt any commission would come off the back of the relatively small daytime ratings for the US version.
They tried bringing it back with specials in 2020 and it got low 200k metro. It ainât coming back
Surprised 10 doesnât get the UK Family Fortunes (same show, diff name) as Australian daytime audiences clearly like the UK gameshows.
The issue with Family Fortunes is that itâs a Prime Time game show in the UK, not a Daytime one like The Chase, Tipping Point and Lingo.
Still about 40 episodes they could air over the next few months.
Do you think the reason why Family Feud always got bad ratings because the show was on three channels for a long time and never recovered?
That and the obvious which is the 6pm slot. I remember saying a few years ago the show wouldâve done a little better had it been on an hour later. Itâs also what I am saying now with another game show Channel 10 is now airing.
7 Weeks if Channel 10 were to air UK Family Fortunes Mon-Fri during the day.
The US Family Feud is a weekday show for syndication with hundreds of episodes hence why they chose to air that instead.
