There are very many countries producing "Family Feud" since 1976. 7 of them are from Southeast Asia, including my country, Vietnam. It is my one of my favourite game show franchise. But honestly, what is your "WORST" international version and their studio of Family Feud ?
Feel free to give me some interesting suggestions.

As much as it pains my heart to say it, I rank our version of the game as one of the worst in the format. Compared to some of the more popular versions of the show, the studio of our version is poor in terms of design, the presenter (Tsvetomir Ivanov) behaves super frivolously, the rating of the show is low, and the questions asked to the participants are sometimes discriminatory. For example: "IF YOU ARE AN UGLY WOMAN, WHAT PROFESSION WOULD YOU CHOOSE TO NOT MEET MEN?"
Until now, the show is being broadcast at 18:00 EET on NOVA, and in the fall "The Chase" will start in its place. For the last 6 years, it has been produced by "Bluebox Entertainment", whose owner is the former host of "Deal or Not Deal" - Rumen Lukanov.
UPDATE: There will be a new season, starting September 9th, but this time at 17:00 EET, every Friday.

My turn. I have much of pity and I'm very sorry to Vietnamese citizens to say that our version is among one of the worst of Family Feud. Because what ? Oh yeah, I'd talk about the set mainly. Although it had changed many times over the years since 2004, but still didn't have any dramatic changes. The best example is there was no LED screens but static backgrounds at the teams section, except for the single TV monitor but very obsolete graphics. The last edition (2015-16) was looked like the US ver., but it was still poor. I don't know if they were lack of budgets or creativity or something else if compared to other local gameshows. Maybe my impression is the very first set of the Vietnamese version, which it looked like the one of the Anderson and Karn era. Also, the music was obsolete too, because they used the old Australian-style 1988 and they kept using that. Obviously I say, compared to some versions from Southeast Asia, my nation's version is the worst one in that area.
Sadly for many citizens in Vietnam, this show was come to the end in 2016, ending the run of 12 years.
Anyway, another impression is the host. I like how they hosted the show, starting from the long-hosting Tạ Minh Tâm, the handsome Bình Minh and finally the hilarious duos, including Trường Giang.

Same opinion, but I don't like Family Feud very much. It was pretty good at first but gradually it got more and more boring.  |

Funny enough, I was actually thinking of calling out the set from the Anderson version of the show, even though it doesn't count as "international". It almost felt like it belonged in a convenience store, not on a game show, while the Karn set felt like a game show set to me. (I'm not a fan of the 1-1-1-3 scoring system either, so I'm glad that was also changed.) |

Also, in Vietnamese version "Family Feud", they just had the only sound effect of each type and used them many times in a whole show. To make it easier, lemme show you examples: firstly, listen carefully a sound effect like canned applause, and later, you can hear that same sound again. Or, when the camera points to the audiences, you could see that they don't clap while the applause sound is still used. That doesn't make sense, does it ? And this method is used for some local gameshows without having the LIVE audiences, too. This is just my experience of watching gameshows, not to complain.

The British graphics style used between 2000 and 2001 were abysmal... they tried to be modern at the start of the intro, but they used old-style text for the logo!  Then, there was the attempt at changing the music... that ended horribly. |

) I guess the next on will be Poland then...
