Title: The Smiths have 100, the Jones' are at 150...

Is it me or are families on 'Family Feud' given a dress code today? All women wear are black slacks & a blouse while all men wear a shirt & tie but no jackett.

Seriously, one aspect of Louie's '7:30 show' (to quote ex-producer Micheal Cantor) that is still around is the practice of going to a commerical before the fourth and often final round.

I used to dislike it because that not how Goodson did it but now I admit it does make you want to stay tuned, esp. when a family has just taken a lead. Any thoughts?

My personal belief is that it's better to take a break when a family is trailing.
