'Celebrity Family Feud' premiered on ABC this week and not surprisingly has sent the viewers into a frenzy. Steve Harvey returned to host Season 6 of the fan-favorite celebrity game show and has got off to an impressive start.

The Queer Eye OGs and new class teams clashed on Episode 1 and it was an hour of entertainment watching two eras slyly take digs at one another. The original cast played for The Trevor Project, an organization founded in 1998 that provides crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to the LGBTQ youth, while the new batch batted for GLSEN, a foundation that was founded by a group of teachers who believe in developing healthy learning environments for the community.

Despite playing for a cause, the guests made sure they had fun and entertained the audience, including Steve, who seemed totally invested in the banters the teams were indulging in every now and then. But that was not the only highlight of the show. The answers to the surveys prompted some genuine laughs, especially the one which was about the "best talk show host ever," in which Steve topped the chart. In all honesty, it wasn't surprising because it's his show and who would want to be called second best or worse, not be on the list, on his own show? 

As one of the guests guessed Alex Trebek could be one of the names from the survey, Steve interrupted, saying Alex was his favorite host but hasn't cracked a joke ever.

Meanwhile, fans have begun to criticize Steve for his hosting skills. "Steve get over your uncomfortableness and do your job as a host #CelebrityFamilyFeud," a fan says, while another shared: "Also, gotta say it... Alex Trebek > Steve Harvey. I know what show I'm watching, but I don't care! #CelebrityFamilyFeud."

"'[Alex Trebek] hasn't told a joke ever.' oh, so Steve and him share something in common #CelebrityFamilyFeud," a viewer commented. "Steve is so awkward, I hate him #CelebrityFamilyFeud," another pointed.

"I’m surprised the Queer Eye guys would go on here because hasn’t Steve said some openly homophobic stuff in the past?" a viewer asked.
