“It was just like before any sporting event,” Tatum said. We had a little banter back and forth,” Tommy said. “I didn’t feel star-struck at all when Steve Harvey came out. “They treated us like royalty,” Tommy added.Īnd as soon as the game started, this family of athletes said they got in a zone. “Steve was ready to go, super excited to be there. They had to change from California to Georgia. I was really, really impressed with them and their attitudes. “They went above and beyond to make us feel as comfortable as we could. “I was just really impressed with the staff of Family Feud,” Tatum said.
(During the pandemic, only a certain number of people could be at the studio at one time.) Those who were not on stage were the audience for the other games. Producers made several episodes with different families. In fact, the Schroeder family was in awe of how they were treated. Producers also brought out a chair for Tenielle, who was pregnant at the time, during breaks. I had my own make-up person to keep powdering me down during breaks.” They gave me a fan to carry around because I was sweating so bad. It was the first game since COVID, in fact. The Shroeders were picked to be in the first game filmed. Definitely a different experience,” Tyra said. Normally, he’s up close and giving hugs and high fives. We had to stay 6-feet away from Steve Harvey. Still, it was not like anything they had seen on TV. The Schroeders got there, had to take COVID tests, then were cleared to go to the studio. The producers called the Schroeder family and asked them to come to Atlanta in early August. In the months of shutdown, Steve Harvey and Family Feud moved production to Georgia, to Tyler Perry’s studios. Producers would talk to each family during breaks. The Schroeder family of Camas said it took more than an hour to record a 20-minute game show. “We were back in the waiting game again,” Tommy said. The family was booked, with flights and hotel, for April of 2020. But this would be in California, in studio. Sure enough, they made it to the next stage. But they don’t send anything if the family did not make the next cut. Producers would contact the family if it made it to the next level. “It really was a waiting game from there,” Tatum said. They felt the audition went well but they did not get much feedback. Tyra said she can sing with her mouth closed. Teague proudly claimed she can catch grapes in her mouth, a “professional grape catcher.” Tatum noted she is a former Miss Washington USA contestant, a nod to the fact that Steve Harvey had a YouTube moment of his own when he hosted the Miss USA contest. Tenielle Shenae talked about her workshops on self worth for girls. Tommy noted he had been married for 35 years and was a former state champion coach at Camas. From there, they had to introduce themselves in front of a camera, share a little something about themselves.
The producers put the Schroeders through a mock Family Feud, filmed it to see how they would do on camera. “The gal turned back and said, ‘I guess we saved the best for last.’” ‘The next family will be the Schroeders.’ We jumped up and we were so loud,” Tommy said. The Schroeders waited and waited and waited to be called. Organizers put roughly 80 families in three separate ballrooms.
The Schroeders were asked to go to an audition in Portland. It would be Tommy and their daughters making up the five-person team. She dedicated most of the essay to her husband, father of four daughters, and their togetherness. It was Teresa who submitted the application to try out for the game show. They can talk about the experience, though. Game show rules insist that contestants do not share much of what happens during the competition until after an episode airs. The Schroeder family cannot get into too many specifics. The Schroeder family of Camas will be on the game show Family Feud this week: Tommy, Tenielle, Tatum, Teague, and Tyra.
In Clark County, the Schroeders believe it will be the 5 p.m. The Schroeder Family of Camas made it to the game show after an extra long waiting period, and their debut episode is expected to air Thursday. Well, rumor has it, a Camas family just might see itself on YouTube one day for such a blunder.īut in order to give a wacky answer on the Family Feud, one must be on Family Feud. Host Steve Harvey is famous for telling the family that ‘you might see yourself on YouTube for that one.’ There are plenty of videos floating around the internet featuring the worst or craziest answers to questions from the game show Family Feud. The enthusiastic Schroeders had the time of their lives while competing in Georgia
