}} | past_members = | website = | footnotes = | module = }}Million Dollar Extreme (MDE) is an American sketch comedy troupe.[1] They are known for their online videos, anti-comedy, and public pranks.[2] The members are Sam Hyde, {{not a typo|Charls}} Carroll, and Nick Rochefort.[3] World Peace{{Main|Million Dollar Extreme Presents: World Peace}}On May 7, 2015, it was announced that MDE were slated to have their own live action 15-minute sketch show on the cable network Adult Swim.[2] It was to be set in a post-apocalyptic nightmare world that satirizes the current political climate.[3] Titled World Peace, the series premiered on August 5, 2016.[4] World Peace was subject to internal controversy at Adult Swim due to MDE's documented ties[5][6][7] to the alt-right. Three weeks later, it was announced that the show would not be renewed for a second season.[8] The troupe has run into various issues with online terms of service violations due to their content and fanbase. On May 4, 2018, the MDE channel was permanently removed from YouTube for a violation of the community guidelines.[9] On September 10th, 2018, the group's subreddit on Reddit was permanently removed for violations of their policy regarding violent content.[10] Critical receptionChristian Williams of The A.V. Club describes them: "Some videos borrow Wonder Showzen{{'}}s toolkit, wielding subliminal blips and eye-straining text in service of subversive ends. Some make use of the Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! aesthetic, and some are surprisingly slick, with excellent, eardrum-shredding music courtesy of talented mystery-men like Orangy and Vaervaf."[11] In the view of Philly Mag's Andrew Thompson: "The mission of Million Dollar Extreme has always seemed a spin on afflicting the comfortable, except its targets usually aren’t the comfortably powerful. To the extent that satire exists in MDEs comedy, it feels like more of rationalization than a reason for the shock itself."[1] Robert Mariani wrote at The Federalist that the group's comedy style is an example of post-irony: "Figuring out the intentions of the ironist is easy: whatever is being shown is being mocked. But the post-ironist folds over on his own sincerity with exaggeration, using the ironic not just to ridicule, but also to enjoy the absurdities of what he genuinely appreciates."[12] References1. ^1 {{cite web|last1=Thompson|first1=Andrew|title=WATCH: TEDx Drexel Got Pranked This Weekend|url=http://www.phillymag.com/news/2013/10/06/tedx-prank-philadelphia-drexel-sam-hyde/|publisher=Philly Mag|date=October 6, 2013}} {{US-comedian-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|last1=Stanhope|first1=Kate|title=Adult Swim Upfront Slate Includes 12 Pilots, Two From 'Robot Chicken's' Seth Green|url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/adult-swim-upfronts-slate-2015-793960|website=The Hollywood Reporter}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|last1=Lincoln|first1=Ross|title=Adult Swim Comedy From Sketch Troupe Million Dollar Extreme Gets Series Order, Official Title|url=http://deadline.com/2016/03/sketch-troup-million-dollar-extreme-adult-swim-series-order-official-title-1201713596/|website=deadline.com|accessdate=March 5, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.adultswim.com/videos/million-dollar-extreme-presents-world-peace/|title=Million Dollar Extreme Presents: World Peace|publisher=|accessdate=December 11, 2016}} 5. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/josephbernstein/neo-nazi-promo-adult-swim-million-dollar-extreme#.pbwxy9Keb|title=The Underground Neo-Nazi Promo Campaign Behind Adult Swim’s Alt-Right Comedy Show|work=BuzzFeed News|access-date=2018-08-15|language=en}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/josephbernstein/adult-swim-talent-trying-to-cancel-million-dollar-extreme|title=Adult Swim Talent Want The Network To Cancel Its Alt-Right Comedy Show|work=BuzzFeed News|access-date=2018-08-15|language=en}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/sam-hyde-speaks-meet-man-behind-adult-swims-canceled-alt-right-comedy-show-954487|title=Sam Hyde Speaks: Meet the Man Behind Adult Swim's Canceled "Alt-Right" Comedy Show (Exclusive)|work=The Hollywood Reporter|access-date=2018-08-15|language=en}} 8. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/tv/news/adult-swim-cancels-controversial-million-dollar-extreme-w454098|title=Adult Swim Cancels Controversial Show ‘Million Dollar Extreme’|last=Blistine|first=Joe|date=December 5, 2016|work=|publisher=Rolling Stone|via=}} 9. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.theverge.com/2018/9/12/17847186/reddit-qanon-milliondollarextreme-ban-sam-hyde|title=Reddit has banned QAnon|last=Stephen|first=Bijan|date=12 September 2018|work=The Verge|accessdate=13 September 2018}} 10. ^{{cite news|url=https://buzzfeednews.com/article/ishmaeldaro/reddit-sam-hyde-million-dollar-extreme-ban|title=Reddit Banned A Page That Trafficked In White Supremacist Content, But The Problem Is Much Bigger|last=Daro|first=Ishmael|date=11 September 2018|work=Buzzfeed News|accessdate=13 September 2018}} 11. ^1 {{cite web|last1=Williams|first1=Christian|title=Take in the work of the comedy provocateurs in Million Dollar Extreme|url=http://www.avclub.com/article/take-in-the-work-of-the-comedy-provocateurs-in-mil-96712|website=The A.V.
