Win, Lose or Draw is a Disney Channel game show that premiered on the network on January 17, 2014. In April 2013, the Disney Channel announced a new version of Win, Lose or Draw (which originally ran on NBC from 1987 to 1989, with a concurrent syndicated run until 1990, and a Teen edition that also ran on the Disney Channel from 1989 to 1992; all versions were a co-production of Burt & Bert Productions (Burt Reynolds and host of the syndicated edition Bert Convy), Kline & Friends (headed by Richard S. Kline, and composed of former staffers from Barry & Enright Productions), and Buena Vista Television; Stone-Stanley Productions co-produced the Teen version), to be hosted by Justin Willman. As with Teen Win, Lose or Draw, the two teams on each program are made up of two young contestants plus a teenage celebrity (this time, from a Disney Channel or Disney XD program). New motion-control technology is featured.
It was the last show to use the 2002 Disney Channel logo before switching to a newer one.
Challenges[]
The 2014 version featured the following rounds (all 90 seconds):
1. Get a Clue – For each word, Willman announces a clue, leading to the answer, with additional clues provided every 10 seconds. Each correct answer is worth 10 points, with team members alternating after each word is either guessed or passed.
2. Draw-obstacle Course – The clue givers endured a variety of challenges while drawing, such as using an over-sized stylus, drawing on a spinning touch-screen board, the current drawing disappearing if the clue giver lifts his/her finger, or drawing while standing on a vibrating stool. The challenges rotated from episode to episode, and three were presented per round. As before, correct answers were worth 10 points.
3. Fill in the Blank – Adapted from the original final round, Willman read a pun-styled clue with a blank, with the clue-giver drawing the word that filled in the blank. As in all previous versions, the team that was trailing went first (or the team that went first in round one going first if the score was tied), and clues were worth 20 points, with as many clues played as possible within the time limit.
