Seems like a bit of a demotion.

Well - he could consider it a "transfer".. lol

Or better yet, in Fremantle terms - a great new promotional tool..

Wonder if Fremantle will offer Karn a shot at hosting Family Feud Live, which starts Sunday at Showboat-Atlantic City and eventually might turn up in Vegas or wherever? As per the At The Shore newspaper serving South Jersey, AC is the first venue for Feud live.

Do you really think a show, set for a premiere Sunday, doesn't have a host slotted yet?

And if Fremantle wanted Karn to stay in the family that badly, either they would have mentioned the 'transfer' in the peeahr release, or would have had OHurley 'practice' in AC before switching...

Well, I was certainly shocked when I heard the news. In fact, I first heard about it on "The Tony Danza Show" this morning.

I'm probably in the minority who likes Richard Karn and while I hate to see him go, I look forward to seeing John O' Hurley host the Feud. In fact, I remember a commercial he did with Louie Anderson back in September 2000 as they were promoting both the new season of "Family Feud" and the Premiere of "To Tell The Truth." An HOUR of POWER! (For those of you who remember the promo :) )

How many times are they going to change the set?? It seems like they change something every season. I like the current set.

Finally, I agree with most of you. I would love to hear Randy West announce The Feud! He's one of my favorite announcers :)

Randy would kick arse announcing the Feud, I'll agree.  Perhaps Mr. West could shed some light on something for us.

The posed question to Randy is actually relating to the live show in A.C., with the dueling shows in A.C. (Price & Feud, of course) is it reasonable to presume that you would announce one of the two shows while Daniel Rosen announces the other?  And/or...is there going to be a new announcer thrown into the mix?

I'm actually really happy about this change.  Karn, while he did try, just was not a good host for Feud.  Maybe for something not involving comedy he would be good, but not for this.  Louie wasn't a great host, but he had some comedy.  If they could combine Karn's ability to host and Anderson's comedy talent, they would be great.  I think O'Hurley could do it.  I never saw him on Truth, so I won't comment on that, but he was very good on the Spelling bee show that FOX aired.  The new set interests me also.  Wonder what they will go with.  Well, looks like I'll be able to stomach Feud again.  Karn is gone, hooray.

I almost had the privilege of meeting him (taping schedule was tight as he had to do something with his kid), but did see him briefly in the hallway at Feud. He seemed to be a nice guy from what I've heard. But a new host & set change can't hurt. Wouldn't it be nice if they changed the survey board?

As for Burton, I'd be surprised if they let him go. He's lasted through 1 host change. But stranger things have happened.

Should be interesting.

My father chatted with him a bit between commercial breaks, as we where standing right behind the director and an assistant we had gotten to know.    He definetly seemed like a nice guy, and didn't mind chatting with a curious audience member..  I even asked the guy we met on another shows green room if he might have any 8X10's around to autograph,  but sadly by that time when he went to find Karn, he had gone right to lunch, and it was our last show of the day..

The ONLY thing I found really annoying about Karns fued, was the 'I'm going to DOUBLE the points!'.....and audience cheers.....I really hope that dosn't make it to the new version.... But the staff also seemed to laugh at most of his comments during tape, so they must have liked him enough too..  I love watching the behind the scenes stuff during show tape, as you can see the s how if you miss a segment on TV later ;)
