Mark Goodson was inspired to create "Family Feud" by a segment of the game show "The Match Game," on which Richard Dawson was a regular panelist. The interactive and family-oriented format of "The Match Game" influenced Goodson's concept for "Family Feud," which debuted in 1976. Dawson later became the original host of "Family Feud," further connecting the two shows.
