The award-winning game show Family Feud is celebrating its 800th episode on 15 August with a heartwarming reunion of one of the most iconic barkadas in Philippine TV history.

In this special offering, the studio lights up with nostalgia, as the cast of the 1990s youth-oriented Kapuso series T.G.I.S. (Thank God It’s Sabado) returns for a barkadahan showdown.

As fans cheer for their favorites, the episode also serves as a touching tribute to the late Red Sternberg, one of the show’s well-loved cast members.
