Celebrity 'Feuds' You Skip Over

[The Pyramids]

From 1999 to the present, what is your pick for the most dull/least interesting celebrity week of 'Family Feud'? For me its NBA players & their mothers from either O'Hurley's second or third year.

[PYLdude]

All of them.

[TLEberle]

I haven't watched the show regularly in so long that none come to mind. It was annoying that if the people on the teams chafed that I'd have to wait a week to get back to normal folks, but that Feuding Families would be off after one loss.

The one that simply made me uncomfortable was the Al Roker-hosted version that had Ed McMahon's family. I saw it on that holiday FF marathon and it was just painful to see Ed McMahon barely able to move around.

The faceoffs with McMahon were just cringe-worthy.

[BrandonFG]

I found the entire Al Roker run pretty unwatchable. I think the one with the cast from My Name is Earl was probably the worst one.

The Muppets vs. Dixie Chicks week from Louie's final season was pretty weird too.

Was that the one where they basically play in character, and got "Celebrity Hot Potato/Paula Poundstone" levels of not caring about the game? 

Now, the whole "in character" thing, if done right, can be entertaining...see: the weeks on Password Plus when they did it; also, truthfully, Jon Bauman was a decent game player in Bowzer get-up. 

As for which one I'd skip?  How about the most recent one (I won't dignify it by naming the teams...actually, seeing that That and wrestling have been the only celeb weeks on Harvey Feud re-enforces its "white trashy" image...)

They needed the "remote" buzzer they used on the week Gilligan's Island's team was on, and they had one for Jim Backus.

Why not? It would be helpful to those of us know have no idea what you're going on about.

[Steve Gavazzi]

I won't dignify it by naming the teams...

Maybe you should, since I have no idea what you're talking about.

Honey Boo Boo v. Cake Boss, I assume.

Honey Boo Boo v. Cake Boss, I assume.

Yep, that is totally the logical leap I would have made without a single ounce of context to go on.

I thought the times Vicki Lawrence played Thelma Harper on Bergeron's Hollywood Squares (were there other shows she did that on?) were amusing, although simply calling her "Mama" felt a bit out-of-place.

As for Password Plus, I thought the in-character weeks felt a bit awkward. (Thumbs up for creativity and to whoever came up with the idea, though.)

Why?

[WarioBarker]

...Why what? If you're referring to

although simply calling her "Mama" felt a bit out-of-place.

I said that because the character does have an actual name, but to my knowledge was almost never (if not outright never) used for her appearances post-Mama's Family. I have no idea why that is (could be legal issues, or perhaps just the sake of familiarity given the show's title), but it always felt odd to me that she was just called "Mama".

Ok folks, tell me if I'm getting the Benfield game rules...

This was a poat that added nothing but he proved that he knew a TV character's name?
