Family Feud’s Steve Harvey accused of ‘setting up’ contestants in ‘tough’ round as fans call out glaring error on board

FAMILY Feud host Steve Harvey has been slammed by fans for supposedly setting up contestants to fail.

On Thursday's episode, viewers watched players take on a difficult round of Family Feud, which supposedly included a major error on the board.

Standing at the center stage, Contestant Hayley seemed nervous as she competed for $20,000 during the Fast Money segment.

"We asked 100 women to fill in the blank. When I see something I want, I blank for it," Steve, 67, read the prompt.

Haley froze as she struggled to come up with an answer.

"I...pass..." she said while tightening her eyes.

Steve then asked for "a word that rhymes with wink," then to name "a type of cheese with a funny name," and finally picked "something else that gets caught in a tree besides a cat."

When it was time to reveal the answers on the board, Steve claimed Haley had previously said, "Look," but she passed.

She lost points for the wrong answer anyway.

THE BACKLASH

In an

, critics jumped to the comments section of the YouTube account and pointed out that these were trickily worded questions for the contestant.

"I feel like leading the question off with ‘besides a cat’ is tricky because your mind automatically thinks of an animal," one critic mentioned.

"Those were some really HARD questions..." another critic added.

"This Fast Money was set up to be tough to win," a third critic suggested.

"[Haley] never said, 'Look.' Are they just throwing in a random answer for no reason whatsoever?" a fourth person wrote.

"Fairly hard questions and slow answering contestants. A bad combo for Steve," a commentator chimed.

'SEXY DREAMS'

This past week, the TV host delivered a wild response as contestants shared their raunchy responses.
