The Babin family from Rosaireville, New Brunswick, recently appeared on Family Feud Canada.

After three wins, they never hit the big money, but Joanne Frigault says the experience was worth it

“The funny thing is, our oldest sister, Denise, had applied without us even knowing. When she let us know we were all game for it, of course, but we never thought we’d make it to the show. We had an interview, and they liked us,” Frigault explained.

It was a lengthy process with a lot of forms to fill out. Frigault says they asked a lot of questions, wanted to know information about the sisters and funny things that have happened in our lifetime.

They arrived for the show in August, and they stayed there for four days because it ended up being during the Air Canada strike.

They had a full day to do whatever they wanted before heading into the studio on Saturday and Sunday.

“On the Saturday, we didn’t end up filming, so we just watched the tapings, and we met all the families and on the Sunday. We had watched the show before. I mean, everybody watches Family Feud, but there’s so much editing, and there’s so much prep that you don’t realize that goes on behind the scenes,” Frigault says.

Rosaireville is a small community near Rogersville, New Brunswick. “Everybody was really proud and really supportive. It was an awesome experience,” Frigault says.

“Having to compete against another New Brunswick family on the second day was really nice too.”

She has this advice for anyone considering applying to be on Family Feud Canada, “Just do it. It’s such an awesome experience, and everybody there is so nice, and it’s so fun, and it creates a lot of good memories, especially for my sisters and me. It was really nice to spend time together.”
