Family Feud is an Australian game show based on the American show of the same name. It aired on Network Ten from 14 July 2014 until 22 July 2018 and in August 2020 for a special 10-episode series. The show was hosted by Grant Denyer.[1][2] This was the fourth Australian version of the format, the previous incarnation being Bert's Family Feud hosted by Bert Newton in 2006. Ten became the third network to adapt the format.[1] From 2016, Ten also screened a celebrity edition titled All Star Family Feud.[3] The show was filmed at Global Television Studios in Southbank, Melbourne from 2014 to 2017 and at Network Ten Studios in Pyrmont, Sydney in 2018 & 2020.

Network Ten revived the series for a 12 episode prime-time special series, which premiered on Sunday, 16 August 2020,[4] with contestants being the frontline workers who assisted in the 2019–2020 bushfire crisis & the COVID-19 pandemic and their families. The grand prize for the special series was increased to A$100,000.[5][6]
