Extreme Dodgeball is an American game show based on the game of dodgeball that aired between 2004 and 2005 on the Game Show Network. The series ran for three seasons, each of which featured six to eight teams of five to seven players.[1] The first series followed gimmick teams, such as sumo wrestlers and jockeys,[2] which changed over time into the third series with franchise-like teams representing cities.[3] All three series are presented by Bil Dwyer and Zach Selwyn.[2]

The series was created by Rich Cronin and produced by Mindless Entertainment and made to accompany the Rawson Marshall Thurber movie Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.[4]
