The Top Moments From Season 6 of Family Feud Canada
What were the best moments from last season of Family Feud Canada? Survey says: Too many to count. But that doesn't mean we can't try! In a season full of great families, hilarious answers, ridiculous questions and more, we did our best to pick a few of our favourite moments. Gerry For Mayor "Let's Keep Dildo Canadian, eh?" What started as a joke became a reality as the residents of Dildo, Newfoundland (Yes, that's the town's real name) petitioned to oust honorary mayor Jimmy Kimmel and replace him with Canada's own Gerry Dee. Jimmy, why aren't you returning our calls? Redemption Week We've had countless incredible families compete on the show over the years, and we kicked off the season with a shot at a redemption tournament with a few of our favourites. Sadly, there were no more on-air proposals, but we were pleased to find out that the Woodman family have expanded their love for gummies beyond a viral moment and into a business! Meet Gerry's Replacement Canada's Make-a-Wish Canada made a 13-year-old superfans dream of becoming a gameshow host a reality when Christos took over hosting duties for Gerry Dee for a special taping of Family Feud Canada. And what did Gerry have to say about his replacement? "I can't believe CBC would do that to me. Bring in my replacement, right before my eyes. The scary thing is, he was actually really good. I'm glad he's not old enough to have the job. Otherwise, I think I would be in big trouble." William Shatner Puts A Debate to Rest Is the sun a planet? Apparently so according to one of our favourite viral moments that has caused much debate. Well, we finally decided to consult an expert to answer the question. And who better to weigh in on the subject than Captain Kirk himself. Canadian legend William Shatner had some insightful (and hilarious) thoughts to help finally put the debate to rest.

13-year-old superfan co-hosts Family Feud Canada with Gerry Dee
There's a new game show host in town! Meet Christos, aged 13, from Quebec who took over hosting duties for Gerry Dee on the set of Family Feud Canada for a special taping earlier this year. Christos loves streaming game shows on his computer while holding cards and pretending to be a host. "From a young age, Christos liked to pretend he was on TV. It all started with a Greek show and then he moved on to Family Feud and never stopped," says his mom Marianna. Christos's fantasy became a reality thanks to Canada's Make-a-Wish Foundation. "We thought that being a Family Feud Canada host alongside Gerry Dee would make for the perfect day for Christos," says the foundation's Melissa Perri. "A wish offers a much-needed break from treatments and hospital visits, allowing the child and their family to find strength, resilience and a sense of normalcy in an otherwise difficult time." Christos brought his outsized personality and sense of humour to Family Feud Canada. The production team made the experience special with VIP access to the studio, time to hang out with Gerry and a seat next to the director during taping. Gerry's stylist, Tara Williams, even arranged for a new suit — just like the one Gerry wears on the show — from made2measure clothing. "The best part of the day was being able to see his dream come true: to be on camera in front of a live audience," says Marianna, "having everyone's attention on him, clapping for him, laughing with him and of course being able to interact with Gerry Dee." Says Dee, "I can't believe CBC would do that to me. Bring in my replacement, right before my eyes. The scary thing is, he was actually really good. I'm glad he's not old enough to have the job. Otherwise, I think I would be in big trouble."
