One of the nation’s longest-running and most popular game shows is coming to Orlando this summer.

Famous for the phrase, “survey says”… Family Feud is moving its production studio from Las Angeles to a new home at Universal Orlando Resort. In addition to the change in venue, the show will also welcome a new host in entertainer Steve Harvey.

The game show is expected to film 165 episodes from July thru September on Sound Stage 19 at Universal Orlando Resort. The episodes will be staged on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Family Feud will produce four to eight episodes a day.

You don’t have to be a theme park guest to watch the tapings. Currently, there are 22 taping dates scheduled between July and September, 2010. Access to the studio will be available through Universal CityWalk for those not visiting the theme park.

Family Feud is one of the most familiar game shows since Richard Dawson originally hosted it in the 1970s. The current version of the show has been running 11 years in syndication and airs weekdays at 10 a.m. ET.

Universal Orlando will play up Family Feud in promotions to bring more guests to the resort, said Pamela Tuscany, vice president of production.
