Source-derived summary

Celebrity Family Feud is a broadcast network spin-off of the syndicated American game show Family Feud. The show first aired on NBC from June 24 to July 29, 2008, and began airing on ABC on June 21, 2015. Like the primetime All-Star Specials aired during the late 1970s and early 1980s by the show's then-network home ABC, the episodes feature celebrities and their real families, or teams of celebrities playing as a 'family' for charity, rather than the regular format of ordinary families playing for cash and prizes.
