After Googling, if the board game for "A Kin to Win" was even somewhat like the actual show, then the only thing it had in common with Family Feud was family teams.[/quote]
After...um...actually looking at my copy of the board game, I'd have to agree with you.
Periodically, I've asked around for anybody north of the border to tell me anything about the TV show, but none of our Great White Friends seems to remember much about it. But no, it was no more the progenitor to Family Feud than Keep It In the Family or probably several other family-based shows that came before it.
This claim of Knoxville (where I am right now, as a matter of fact) being the third-biggest producer of cable television hours is an interesting one, but possible a little suspect. I think people would be surprised at how much is produced here (Knoxville is home base for several DIY channels) but it's still a small market as TV goes and I have to think several others top it. It also, of course, depends on how you define your terms. One of the top producers of original cable content is probably Bristol, Connecticut.
