En la victoria o en la derrota

Fresh and relevant take on kids entertainment from Disney. Characters are awesome and each perspective brings them more depth. We loved how each family dynamic is different and not just the standard molecular family. Also very diverse group which was really cool too. Disney is highlighting mental health as an underlying theme within this series which doesn't get brought up often in cartoons and it's great the kids are seeing and understanding the stressors of what could be really effecting kids of that age group. We binged the first 6; kids got to stay up late that night. It was equally entertaining for adults as well. Anxiously awaiting the next drop.

Im going to be honest here to me Pixar has kinda fallen off in terms of production. This is coming from a guy who grew up in the age of Monster Inc, Wall-E, incredibles some of the ealry project pixar hit straight out of the park with. But this series i think has brought a little faith back with Pixar.

First the story telling Each episode having a different component is probably the best decision pixar made with this series in mind. Each episode having a separate focus allows us the viewer to see the every day chaos that a simple middle school softball team can have. It truly shows how not every has the same perception in life, not everyone sees things or hears things the same as others bits get left out, things get forgotten, and actions seem grander or more minimal. Like for example without spoiling you get a perspective of a mother and daughter, you first see the daughters POV and you end up hating on the mother then you watch the moms POV and you feel bad because now you see why she was doing all the stuff the daughter took for granted. It shows that perspective can change so much about how you see a person. And that in the game of life you can either win or loose.

Its a phenomenal series and i hope pixar makes more

I want to give it a 9/10 but some things like the final episode and marketing put it at a solid 8/10.

Pixar's newest show "Win or Lose" is a refreshing breath of fresh air from the recent other projects from Pixar such as Toy Story 4, Elemental and Lightyear, but Win or Lose brought back a sense of Pixar's old creativity and skills at making good stories.

The whole little show was a beautiful and masterful tale of several characters on a softball team. They're an unlikely bunch, but putting their differences aside they work so well together. Splitting the series so that every episode follows a single character was a brilliant idea. It's even better when you can see events from other episodes unfolding in the background. The attention to detail and how well the story wraps itself together was simply excellent. By the end of the show everything seemed to have been in a much better place than they were before. The actual ending of the Championship is unknown whether the team won or not was possibly a nod to the title as we're left to decide whether the team won or lost.

The animation was gorgeous and was further enhanced by superb voice acting from Will Forte, Rosa Salazar and Josh Thompson. The majority of the cast were children, and for the most part they were actually pretty good.

Overall, this show delves deep into sensitives themes such as mental health, stress and pressure. It amounts to a neat and well rounded little show that's definitely worth your time to watch.

I've seen a lot of reviews saying Win or Lose is unsuitable for children. While the themes are certainly more mature, the animation is fantastic, and much of the deeper context will likely go over younger viewers' heads. That said, the show does an incredible job of visualising emotions in a way that younger audiences can understand and relate to.

As a young adult, I really struggled with rage. I had no idea where it came from and found it hard to articulate. Seeing something like this when I was 12 or 13 could have made a huge difference in my life.

I love that Pixar is creating stories that help young people understand and express their emotions, offering visuals that make these complex feelings more accessible. It's a wonderful thing, and I truly believe this show will help a new generation not only process their own emotions but also develop compassion for the adults in their lives.

It's a beautiful show-heartbreaking at times-but ultimately delivers an important and necessary message.

Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Pixar's Win or Lose has officially hit Disney+, and it's safe to say this series has hit a home run in terms of storytelling, heart, and innovation. Known for its stunning animations and emotional depth, Pixar brings a fresh perspective to TV with Win or Lose, an eight-episode series that follows a middle school co-ed softball team in the days leading up to their big championship game.

What's most intriguing about Win or Lose is how it tells the same story from the eyes of different characters. Each episode focuses on a different member of the team, the storytelling structure isn't just clever-it's an invitation to truly understand the varied emotions, conflicts, and motivations each character brings to the game, offering a deeper connection with each of them.

The animation is, of course, top-tier. Pixar's signature warmth and expressiveness shine through, creating a vibrant, relatable world for viewers of all ages. From the colors of the playing field to the subtle emotional cues in the characters' faces, there's a consistency of excellence that's become synonymous with Pixar's name.

But it's not just about the animation. Win or Lose really stands out because of its heart. The show doesn't shy away from exploring the complexities of friendships, growing up, and finding one's identity-all through the lens of a seemingly simple sports story. It's funny, emotional, and sometimes raw in a way that feels refreshingly honest. Whether it's dealing with the stress of winning, managing disappointment, or navigating personal struggles, the series feels grounded and real.

In terms of tone, Win or Lose strikes the perfect balance between humor and emotion. It doesn't shy away from serious moments but also knows when to lighten the mood with playful gags or light-hearted interactions. The voice cast, including Will Forte as Coach Dan and a talented ensemble, bring their characters to life with such authenticity that it's impossible not to care about their journeys.

Ultimately, Win or Lose feels like the kind of series that could easily become a Pixar classic. It's a bit different from what we've come to expect from the animation studio, but it proves that Pixar can still hit home runs, even in uncharted territory. With its innovative narrative structure, lovable characters, and heartfelt exploration of personal growth, Win or Lose is a series that's not just for kids, it's for anyone who's ever had to face the pressure of winning, the sting of losing, and the messy middle ground in between.
