Fox is going back to the drawing board. Jerry O’Connell is set to host "Pictionary", a new game show based on the popular Mattel game that will get a four-week tryout on select Fox stations next month.

The broadcast version of "Pictionary" will follow the rules of at-home play of the game launched in 1985. Two teams of three will consist of two players led by a celebrity captain. One player from the team will draw images that depict a word or phrase found on a card chosen at random, in an effort to have their fellow teammates guess the correct word or phrase on the card. The grand prize winner will receive a trip to an exotic destination.

“Ever since my failed drawing of a koala bear, lost my mom and me our household Pictionary crown, I’ve wanted to prove myself on the Pictionary stage,” O’Connell said. “I’m so happy to be working with this team from Fox and CBS. Sharpen your pencils, it’s going to be a fun summer.”

Distributed by CBS Media Ventures, the half-hour show will air weekdays starting July 12 on Fox outlets including KTTV Los Angeles and WNYW New York.

Pictionary is a game I have disliked ever since my teacher and I tried to play it once at a school Halloween party when I was young and we couldn't figure it out so we played Boggle instead but I believe that this Pictionary game show will be the third Pictionary game show in history. Because if you remember the first Pictionary game show debuted in the 80's with Head Of The Class star Brian Robbins as host and then a second Pictionary game show aired in the 90's with the late Alan Thicke as host. But if this Pictionary game show does well Jerry O'Connell just might add game show host to his resume and be successful

Jerry O'Connell, really? Odds are he will be a terrible game show host.
