Family Feud contestant ‘names something that has to be licked”

Dec 17, 2014

Steve Harvey’s run on Family Feud has brought the show from feel-good 70’s to the hilariously awkward fun time it is today. Part of that success must be the way he reacts to answers like this one.

In response to the prompt “something that has to be licked,” contestant Gene responded, “a woman.” His wife, standing beside him, cheered, shouted, “Good answer!” and high-fived her husband.

“Miss Debbie, did you just turn around and high-five Gene?” Harvey asked, laughing.

When the answer did not show up on the board, Harvey shook his head and said, “Folks, I can’t tell you how many good answers don’t show up on that board.”
