Today....When a Feud was born.
By now you know, Family Feud is turning 40 years old today. So we start out with the first host of Feud after I return.

Right now, what did you think of Super Password? A lot of you said the cashword segment, because of the toaster. If you watched the very last episode, Betty White crushes it to smithereens, but let's get back to Richard Dawson.
(Song stops)
Born In England, Richard gained fame in the television show Hogan's Heroes as Cpl. Peter Newkirk from 1965 to 1971. He was also a regular on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In from 1971–73, and became a regular on The New Dick Van Dyke Show (1973–74). He portrayed a theatre director in the first season of McCloud and was a panelist on the 1972–73 syndicated revival of I've Got a Secret. He played himself on an episode of The Odd Couple.
After Laugh-In was cancelled in 1973, game show pioneer Mark Goodson signed Dawson to appear as a regular on Match Game '73, alongside Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly and host Gene Rayburn. Dawson, who had already served a year as panelist for Goodson's revival of I've Got a Secret, proved to be a solid and funny player and was the frequent choice of contestants for the "Head-To-Head Match" portion of the show's "Super-Match" bonus round, in which, after winning prize money in the "Audience Match" portion, the contestant and Dawson (or any celebrity the contestant chose) had to obtain an exact match to the requested fill-in-the-blank. During his time on Match Game he would occupy the bottom center seat.
From 1976 to 1985, he hosted Family Feud and became the very 1st one. Dawson parodied his TV persona in 1987 in The Running Man, in which he portrayed the evil, egotistical game-show host Damon Killian. Of Dawson's performance film critic Roger Ebert (who gave the film itself thumbs down) wrote, "Playing a character who always seems three-quarters drunk, he chain-smokes his way through backstage planning sessions and then pops up in front of the cameras as a cauldron of false jollity. Working the audience, milking the laughs and the tears, he is not really much different than most genuine game show hosts – and that's the film's private joke."
Richard revived the Feud for one season in 1994 in its 60-minute edition, but died in 2012. But.....
The Buzzr Beater question wants you to know, what's the best thing about Richard? I'll give you a week to decide on it.
