In light of its upcoming Disney Channel revival (rechristened Disney Win, Lose or Draw), Im going to give you the Inside Scoop on my absolute favorite game show of all time growing up.

Its name: Teen Win, Lose or Draw.

Teen Win, Lose or Draw was a Disney Channel original Game Show telecast from April 29, 1989 - September 26, 1992.

Hosted by Marc Price, the game had 2 teams, each composed of a celebrity teen guest and 2 civilian teen contestants, compete in a Boys vs. Girls game where each team had to guess certain words, names, and/or phrases by drawing pictures (no letters, unless the letters are part of a word).

Each game began with a Clue Puzzle Round, where the teams had 60 seconds to get as many clues as possible leading up to a well-known subject; this was followed by a Phrase Round, where the teams had 60 seconds or less to communicate a phrase.

Each game ended with a 90-second Speed Round, and the team with the most points at the end of each game won a prize e.g. a Balloon Ride, Konica Cameras, and/or Nintendo NES Games.

In all honesty, I LOVE this show, and watched it EVERY DAY after School as a 7-year-old, before The Disney Channel took it off.

Some of my favorite episodes have included (that Ive seen) the following shows that I either regretfully taped over or the tape wore out years ago.

1. 1989: Celebrities are Alicia Goranson (Roseanne) & Brice Beckham (Mr. Belvedere)
2. 1990: Celebrities are Candace Cameron (Full House) & Brian Green (Beverly Hills 90210)
3. 1990: Celebrities are Tina Yothers (Family Ties) & Alexander Polinsky (Charles in Charge)
4. 1989: Celebrities are Tannis Vallely (Head of the Class) & Josh Saviano (The Wonder Years)
5. 1990: Celebrities are Josie Davis (Charles in Charge) & Scott Weinger (Full House)
6. 1990: Celebrities are Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster) & Leonardo DiCaprio (Growing Pains)

Of those 6 episodes I listed, the only one I own presently is the episode featuring Soleil Moon Frye & a VERY YOUNG Leonardo DiCaprio (then on TVs Growing Pains), and I ripped that from YouTube as soon as Yarnel Nicholas (http://youtube.com/user/videosurferynx) uploaded it. Thanks Yarnel!

Earlier this afternoon, I wrote on SHOUT! Factory Message Board to Brian Ward, CEO of SHOUT! Factory, suggesting that Teen Win, Lose or Draw be released on DVD next April.

Here is what I said in the letter:



Dear Brian,

I have a proposal for SHOUT! Factory: to make a deal with Buena Vista Television for SHOUT! to release a brand-new DVD Compilation titled The Best of Teen Win, Lose or Draw, a 3-disc collection showcasing 24 episodes (8 per disc) of the hit 1989-1992 TV game show Teen Win, Lose or Draw.

In case you arent familiar with it, Brian: Teen Win, Lose or Draw was a TV game show that aired from April 29, 1989 - September 26, 1992; hosted by Marc Price, each game had 2 teams, each composed of a teen celebrity guest of the era and 2 civilian teen contestants, compete in a Boys vs. Girls game.

The object of the game was for the teams to get certain words, names, & phrases by drawing pictures, no letters or numbers aloud.

Each game began with a Clue Puzzle Round where the teams had 60 seconds to get a series of clues leading up to a well-known subject; this was followed by a Phrase Round, where the teams had 60 seconds or less to communicate a phrase.

Each game ended with a Speed Round where the teams had 90 seconds to communicate as many words as possible; the team with the most points at the end of that round won the game and a prize e.g. a Balloon Ride, while the runners-up also won a prize e.g. a Mountain Bike.

Each episode requested for the DVD shall be shown complete, uncut, & unedited, as originally broadcast on the Disney Channel Television Network.

Tentatively, SHOUT! Factory shall release The Best of Teen Win, Lose or Draw on Tuesday, April 29, 2014 (the day of the 25th anniversary of its debut) at a cost of only $29.99 wherever DVDs are sold.

Without further ado, Brian, here are episodes Im requesting be included on the DVD.
