Question about Family Feud

[Particleman]

My feeling has been if you pass, yes, the other family can do the work and come up with that one last question, with plenty of time to deliberate with the whole family.  That works unless you have one of those questions with only one very obscure answer no one can guess.  The pass-always stragegy can work but it all depends on what question you get.

I suppose we'll never know which one actually works the best.

There was a recent episode where the only reasonable choice was to pass. I admit it's an unusual, possibly unique occurrance, but the left player buzzed in and got a strike. The right player then accidentally said *two* answers, and the second was very obviously going to be #1. In that position, the only possible way to win the question is to pass.
