South African audiences are loving the local version of Family Feud<\/em> and there is no shortage of laughs on this week\u2019s show, which airs on eTV on April 19 as Steve Harvey continues his South African educational journey.<\/p>\n

Family Feud<\/em> host Harvey was taken by surprise when the Mafokwane family, aka The Wolf Pack, howled like wolves during their family introduction.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Although Harvey made fun of them, they had laughs at his expense as he battled to pronounce some of the contestants\u2019 names, calling Thabiso, who works in the food industry, Thabisco.<\/p>\n

The South African accent also bamboozled Harvey when he thought the Mabitsela family were referring to pasta when they were actually saying pastor.<\/p>
