Good answer: Guests and non-guests can see Family Feud at Universal

UPDATE: Here’s the Sentinel’s Family Feud trivia quiz.

As our TV Guy Hal Boedeker reported, Family Feud is moving its production to Universal Orlando. Episodes with new host Steve Harvey will be taped on a Universal Studios theme park soundstage beginning July 10.

You don’t have to be a theme-park guest to watch the taping, but you might exercise caution before striking out for an afternoon of game show watching.

First of all, tape times will vary. Universal suggests calling 407-224-6000 for the latest info. And the tapings won’t happen every day. Universal has 22 taping dates posted between July and September.

Theme park guests will follow signs within the park to the tapings or visit the Studio Audience Center for information.

But non-guests can go too. Park in the Universal mega-garage (bet on them charging you there). Go through Universal CityWalk and walk toward the Sharp Aquos Theater (home of Blue Man Group). Bear right at the theater (you’ll be in the shadow of Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit ) and follow the Family Feud signs.

More cautionary tales: Seating is first-come, first-served, and it’s recommended you arrive an hour early. This is posted at the Universal/Feud site, along with info about auditioning.
