I'm actually a bit surprised by all the bemoaning of how the FF questions have changed. If you've been watching closely since this incarnation began in 1999, it's slowly been coming on, just far more so in the past few years. To be fair to FF, they're hardly an anomaly.
The original "Wheel" puzzles were amazingly simple by comparison, the "Jeopardy" clues of the 1970's were bare boned and simple, so for "Feud" a question of "Name a famous George" just wouldn't cut it in 2015. Now for "Wheel" and "Jeopardy", it's obvious how you keep up with the times, the puzzles are a long way removed from "Judy Garland" for a Person and "I Shall Return" for a phrase. "Jeopardy" has clues which are far longer then they were, and they can keep up with history and new events. A game that relies on the less defined "correct answer" will inevitably wind up going down this road. Look at the precedent, it's called "Match Game", questions like "name a type of muffin" didn't bring in the ratings.
The viewers have spoken, and this is your FF for 2015. My last thought, shows like this that come on so strong, and get such heavy (over) exposure so fast, burn out very quickly. "Family Feud" is today what Howard Stern was in 1997, a hot commodity that you saw absolutely everywhere. But, once you can't push the limit any further, the audience slowly gets tired of it.
