American comedian and TV host Steve Harvey visits South Africa and he’s got something big to launch.
On Monday, Steve announced the launch of an African version of the hit US family game show Family Feud, which he will host.
The game show sees two families compete to give the most popular answers to surveyed questions, often with hilarious results. It has been on air since 1976, with Steve hosting since 2010.
Recording will start in October, with it set to air early next year.
Steve told Sowetan he was excited to be “home” and wanted to open up opportunities on the continent.
“Originally I wanted to come home. I have a home in America, and America has been good to me. It is a land of opportunities. A lot of my family and business is there. But it is not my homeland. Whenever people talk about going home it sounds so cool. And my home is Africa.”
