Win, Lose or Draw is an American television game show that aired from 1987 to 1990 in syndication and on NBC. It was taped at CBS Television City, often in Studios 31, 33, and 43 at various times. It was co-produced by Burt & Bert Productions (headed by Burt Reynolds and Bert Convy, the original host of the syndicated version) and Kline & Friends for Disney's Buena Vista Television. It has also had two versions on The Disney Channel: Teen Win, Lose or Draw from 1989 to 1992, and a revived version known as Disney's Win, Lose or Draw which premiered in 2014.
The set for the original Win, Lose or Draw was modeled after Burt Reynolds' living room.
A pilot with Bert Convy as host was taped on November 2, 1986 at CBS Television City in Hollywood, California, and featured Loni Anderson, Betty White, Burt Reynolds, and Tony Danza playing the game, with Rod Roddy announcing. The pilot, produced by Reynolds and Convy, garnered the interest of both the NBC network and various local stations nationwide; thus, two separate editions of the program were sold and produced with production beginning in June 1987.
On September 7, 1987, Win, Lose or Draw was launched with Kline and Friends joining Burt & Bert Productions as a second production company.Vicki Lawrence hosted the edition produced for NBC, which aired as part of the network's daytime lineup. The syndicated edition, premiering that same day, was hosted by Bert Convy.Bob Hilton announced for the daytime series, with Gene Wood performing those duties for the syndicated series, with Hilton occasionally filling in on the latter version, and Johnny Gilbert and Dean Goss doing so on the daytime show.
