With new technology and video games, kids today are turning to small screens for their entertainment. But not so long ago you'll recall a time when board games were all the rage.
It's no secret that I am a huge fan of Family Feud, and its original host Richard Dawson. I thought I knew everything about him and the show, but since his passing a week ago I have learned much more.
So, here we go with some interesting facts you may not have known. "Top 9 answers on the board... Name a reason that Richard Dawson is a true legend." See what the survey says after the jump!
I got the sad news this morning that Richard Dawson passed away Saturday after losing his battle with esophageal cancer. Born Colin Lionel Emm, he was an English-born American actor, comedian, game show panelist and iconic game show host in America. He was known for his role as Peter Newkirk on Hogan's Heroes, and was a regular panelist on the classic 70s game show Match Game from 1973 to 1978. But he was best known for being the original host of Family Feud from 1976–1985 and 1994–1995.
In honor of the new season of TV Land's "Hot In Cleveland," we are giving away Season 2 on DVD all this week.

Rod & Erin were on the road this morning at Financial Plus for the "Whatchamacallit," a food drive that benefits the Old Newsboys and the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan.
During the broadcast, we played Cars 108 Match Game, and no one could believe Erin's answer to the first question. Listen to the audio and win some Passenger Rewards points after the jump!
This morning, Rod & Erin were out collecting toys for kids in our area. Unfortunately, 43% of Genesee County families are at or below the poverty level. The Salvation Army will distribute those toys to needy children.
While they were out, Rod & Erin played a few rounds of Cars 108's Match Game. It's a radio version of the classic 70s game show hosted by Gene Rayburn. You can play along and win some Passenger Rewards Points after the jump!
As many of you know, I am a huge game show fan, my favorite being "Family Feud." Coming in at a very close second is "Match Game" with host Gene Rayburn.
Every episode of this game was a party consisting of two contestants and six panelists. It's safe to say, they don't make game shows like this anymore. Check out some of the chaos after the jump!
Thirty-five years after it's debut in 1976, classic game show "Family Feud" celebrates it's 35th Anniversary today!
Originally hosted by Richard Dawson, the Feud has gone through several changes, including hosts, sets, and even rules. Despite the variations over the years, the basics of the show have been the same.
