The first time I saw this it was a little tedious and immature, so I kind of looked the other way. But for some reason, unknown to me, I tuned in again the following day, just to confirm my disliking of the show. Little did I know...IT'S THE GREATEST SPORTS SHOW EVER!! Man, what a laugh. Not only have you got some psychotic losers pummelling the crap out of each other, there are several amazing honeys in the delectable forms of Kimberly Estrada and Tanya Fenderbosch, and several others flying around too.It was great in the first season, and the second season managed to slightly up the ante with some full on blood spilling and a few new, unusual rule changes.Non the less, this is by far one of the greatest shows ever, I much prefer it over the film that Stiller and Vaughn made out of the sport. And, the best part of it all...? BIL DWYER! BIL DWYER! BIL DWYER! The guy from Ski School 2 playing the ad-libbing, wisecracking host and commentator, along with a worthy pupil in the form of Zach Selwyn, both verbal geniuses creating new and astonishingly smart gags approximately every 5 seconds.All in all, a great show and a masterstroke on the part of the organisers bringing together great sportsmen and women and two fantastic hosts all into such a widely underrated sports event.Check this show out now, or risk dying of uncultured boredom!!!

*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Dateline: First National Memorial Field Coliseum at the Veterans Dome Stadium Complex. (Remind me how I memorized all of that.) Eight teams--forty of the best dodgeballers have come together in an attempt to win the first ever Extreme Dodgeball championship. Each team consisted of five people who somewhat fit the description of a characteristic team who either rocked the court or sucked. The teams in attendance were Certified Public Assassins, Sumo Storm, Stallion Batallion, Curves of Steel, Armed Response, Ink Incorporated, Silent But Deadly Mimes, and Barbell Mafia. Five games from each team later, the regular season ends and the playoffs begin. In the end, Certified Public Assassins remained undefeated to become the first ever Extreme Dodgeball champion, beating Barbell Mafia in two games.Four teams stayed on board for a second season: Certified Public Assassins, Barbell Mafia, Ink Incorporated, and Armed Response. Taking over the other four spots in the league were Bling, Delta Force, Mutually Assured Destruction, and Reef Sharks. They were separated into two divisions: Classic (teams returning) and Expansion (new teams). Each team was characteristic, but this time the action was more fast-paced than the action of the first season. Gone were the Halloween-type outfits and in came more professional uniforms. Yet they entered the playing field with appropriate removable costumes on. This season was different from the first because each team now played ten games each and only the top three from each division would move on the playoffs. Armed Response avenged all of the teams to take the championship from the hands of Certified Public Assassins after defeating them in the Classic Division championship match. Once in the finals, they beat out Delta Force to win it all.And then...everything changed.Season three was by far the most professional season of them all. Out went the characteristic teams in in came more professional names: Philadelphia Benjamins, Los Angeles Armed Response, New York Bling, Detroit Spoilers, Chicago Hit men, and Denver Hurlers. Each team was led by a celebrity captain and now had six other members on that team. Action went from fast-paced to extreme with a point system and four quarters. And every win pocketed cash for the teams. So every game counted. Gone went the divisions, and it was basically every team for itself with the top four teams moving onto the playoffs. (For the second time in the show's history, one team went winless.) With the playoffs came bragging rights, and Tyrone Rush...who had made it to the finals in the very first season with Barbell Mafia...helped out his own cause by becoming a champion with the New York Bling.Even though the action has changed throughout the past three seasons, this has still been one of my favorite shows. There haven't been a lot of players who have been around since the start, but it's been worth it. Take it from a fan: This has been the fastest, deadliest, and most ferocious sport on Earth. Guaranteed.

This show has to be the worst sport show ever made.Its so rubbish.The only good thing about the episode i liked was when it ended.The thing i hate about it is the teams. They have a team called the sumo storms and how is that entertaining. Another team is the Barbell Mafia,Reef Sharks,CPAs, Silent But Deadly Mimes and Armed Response and it just goes on. Armed Response are police men and they should be doing some thing different with there lives. These are grown men playing little American kids sports.The winner of the series was the CPAs who lost one game. Another thing were the commentators, all they did were tell you who had the ball and say hell. I hope this has helped you and you wont watch extreme dodge ball again.

Hey, I started watching Extreme DodgeBall on GSN when I heard that Mario Lopez was starring on there with his own team. He Looks a bit more fit then when he did Pet Star, but still has a great, shape. I wish he would take off even more on Pet Star, like wear nice shorts or something. He's soo FINE, almost my age! LOL wow, huh? I hope he does the sitcom "10 years SLater" NBC Entertainment and finished that soccerr movie he's staring in this sitcom where he's the high school football coach dealing with some students thinking that he is gay (although I think he would make a great gay, or bi, guy). He's also commentating on a sports show on ESPN2, but looks too conservative there buecase he always has on a nice suite and sports coat. he's got a nice package in there though.
