Spot on. And as soon as someone tells Steve Harvey that, the show might become watchable again.

In Steve's defense, how much of that is his fault? It's no secret the producers want viral moments, no matter how manufactured. But from the clips I've seen from LMAD and TPiR, I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't encouraged by The Powers That Be at Fremantle. Once you realize all three shows are loose enough to where these moments could easily happen organically, it kinda makes you wonder why go through so much extra work.
To answer the original question, the only moment I can think of involved two husbands at the faceoff podium. They were asked to name a phrase that could describe their wife or something, and neither wanted to hit the buzzer. When the cameras cut to them, they both shook their heads rapidly because they weren't trying to end up in the doghouse.

Well, when I feel like I could say that about damn near ANY Steve Harvey show and it would be no less accurate, I kinda have to go with the common bond, there. Which aren't the producers, unless the producer is Harvey, and then, well, yeah.

Point taken.

Steve has major input being the star of Family Feud, right? (Even though his name is in the credits like Wayne Brady, who is Co-EP of LMAD)
