‘Dodgeball Thunderdome’ will take place on a specially constructed site, and will bring together top competitors as well as first-time athletes.

The series will premiere on Wednesday, August 19th, at 9 P.M. It is produced by Lionsgate’s Pilgrim Media Group.

Scott Lewers, executive vice president of multiplatform programming, factual and head of content at Science at Discovery, noted: “Fun is at the heart of this show and now more than ever is the time for totally relatable, laugh-out-loud viewing experiences for the entire family. The competition is hilariously driven by Dobrik’s infectious energy, Lim’s strong on-camera presentation, and Hawkins’ expert play-by-play skills.”
