Featured review
"Eight Is Enough" vs. "Family" is my first review of an all-star "Family Feud"
When Richard Dawson came on he went to this joke: "They may issue a stamp of W.C. Fields. When you lick it, it may taste of martini. If the Rams get one, it may taste of defeat. And one of Billy Carter's may have no taste at all." You may have to read about Pres. Jimmy Carter's brother to get that last one. Anyway, it's the cast of "Eight Is Enough" (Dick Van Patten, Susan Richardson, Willie Aames, Laurie Walters, Dianne Kay) vs. that of "Family" (John Rubinstein, Meredith Baxter-Birney, David Birney, Quinn Cummings, Louise Foley). Kay's upcoming movie 1941 is mentioned as well as Cummings' Oscar nomination (for The Goodbye Girl). After all the questions are answered, it's "Family" in the Fast Money round with Meredith answering mostly No. 1 replies. In fact, it only takes two of John's answers to get past the 200 points required to get whatever large amount goal needed for the charity they're donating to. As always, Richard kisses the pretty female contestants though only Meredith (in deference to husband David) and kid Quinn get it on the cheeks with the others on the lips. A great episode of an all star "Family Feud". I'm going back to YouTube to watch another...
