I'm a sucker for Family Feud, and the celebrity angle gives me hope they won't fool with the formula too much... no need for silly million dollar rounds or any other unnecessary gameplay changes.

God help me, but it sounds interesting enough for me to watch at least once. In spite of the bland mediocrity of Al Roker.
Since the show is still on the air, I don't think they'll change it all that much.
And I prefer Ray Combs. Dawson always came across like an arrogant douche.

The first two hosts were my favorites, in that order too.
I don't see myself watching this 'celebrity' nonsense though.
Very sad about Ray Combs' life after the Feud.

And where else are you going to see the annoying girl from the later years of The Cosby Show face off against The Adventures of Ford Fairlane's homicidal record mogul?

I couldn't resist mentioning that. "GO WIT CHRIST!"
Dog better spray bear mace in Kathie Lee Gifford's face.
This show sounds horrific, but in the best possible way.
And Richard Dawson is awesome. However, Bill Murray as Richard Dawson > Richard Dawson.

Ray Combs is my choice.
In order of preference:
Ray Combs
Richard Dawson
Richard Karn
John O'Hurly
Louie Anderson.
And the only reason Louie is on the list is because he was actually on the show, though I could not stand to watch any of his episodes all the way through. Worst. Host. Ever.

His name shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as those other competent hosts, and it's a wonder the new Family Feud has survived considering what Louie brought to the table.

Karn really had some good comebacks to stupid answers and thought quick on his feet with the contestants. Why did he leave? What is he doing now that is any better?

I'm curious to see if the Larry the Cable Guy family is a group of actors playing a "family" since his schtick is put-on and he rarely leaves character.
