''Celebrity Deathmatch'' is a claymation television show that depicted celebrities fighting each other to the death in a wrestling ring, ending in the loser's gruesome death. It was known for its various power-ups, different abilities, various stats, all amounts of different weapons, the brutality and fatality of the different attacks, excessive amounts of blood, large amounts of blood losses and exaggerated physical injuries (e.g., one person cuts off a participant's foot, living through decapitations, impalement, etc.) used and permitted in every match. The series was created by Eric Fogel, with the pilots airing on MTV on January 1 and 25 1998. The initial series ran from May 14, 1998 to October 20, 2002, and lasted for a 75-episode run. There was one special that did not contribute to the final episode total, entitled "Celebrity Deathmatch Hits Germany", which aired on June 21, 2001. Professional wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin gave voice to his animated form as the guest commentator. Early in 2003, a film based on the series was announced by MTV to be in the making, but the project was canceled by the end of that year. For a brief period in 2001, episodes of ''Celebrity Deathmatch'' aired on broadcast network UPN, immediately following episodes of fellow stop motion series ''Gary & Mike''.〔(Awn.com )〕 In 2005, MTV2 announced the revival of the show as part of their "Sic 'Em Friday" programming block.
