If you're a fan of animation, comedy, and sport with a twist of satire, then Celebrity Deathmatch is a must-add to your BetaSeries account. This unique television series redefines sport and event coverage by pitting today's hottest celebrities against each other in no-holds-barred fantasy fights. Complete with pre- and post-battle activities, one-on-one interviews, press conferences, and behind-the-scenes locker room moments that parody the worlds of film, television, music, and politics.

Celebrity Deathmatch is an adult stop-motion claymated series created by Eric Fogel for MTV. The show parodies sports entertainment programs by depicting various celebrities engaging in highly stylized professional wrestling matches. These matches are known for their large amount of gory violence as combatants use different abilities and weapons to deliver brutal attacks resulting in exaggerated physical injuries. The sarcastic commentary from announcers Johnny Gomez and Nick Diamond adds another layer of humor to the already hilarious scenarios.

The show had a total of six seasons with 92 episodes during its run from 1998 to 2007. It was briefly revived with German shorts 'Celebrity Deathmatch Hits Germany' in 2001 but did not gain much traction among fans. However, the fifth and sixth seasons produced by Cuppa Coffee Studios drew over 2.5 million viewers making it MTV2's highest-rated season premiere.
