Family Feud (New Zealand game show)
Family Feud was a New Zealand game show based on the American show of the same name. It began airing on Three on 15 February 2016. It is hosted by comedian Dai Henwood, and aired Mondays to Fridays at 5:30pm. The set, logo, and format are almost identical to the 2014 Australian version; it is filmed in Epsom. The winning family plays Fast Money for $5,000, and winners of five nights in a row win a brand new car. Thirteen families managed to accomplish the latter.

On All-Star Family Feud, six rounds would be played with the fourth and fifth questions being worth double points and the last question being worth triple points. Each team's charity or charities would receive a donation of $2,000. Each Fast Money point donated $10 and scoring 200 points still added $5,000 to any money won.
On 8 December 2017 it was announced the show had been cancelled as the host, Dai Henwood, would be too busy hosting a renewed season of Dancing with the Stars in 2018.[1][2]
