Entertainment Weekly reports that John O’Hurley will be replaced as host of the long-running game show “Family Feud” by comedian and actor Steve Harvey, who is best known for his sitcom “The Steve Harvey Show.”

O’Hurley, who is leaving to perform and travel with the cast of the musical “Chicago,” has been the “Family Feud” host for the past four years. The show itself is currently in its eleventh season, with Harvey becoming host number six.

Most of the Twitterverse seems quite enthusiastic to see Harvey on board, with some former viewers even saying that once he begins his hosting duties they will start watching the show again:
