Extreme (1995 TV series)

Extreme is an American television adventure drama that premiered on ABC on January 29, 1995, following Super Bowl XXIX.

Starring James Brolin, Extreme was centered on a search and rescue team which operated in the Rocky Mountains.

[citation needed] NBC chose to commission a special episode of Friends to air immediately following Super Bowl XXX the next year and the experiment was such a success that other networks subsequently often chose to air one of their established series after the Super Bowl, with particular attention paid to season premieres of popular reality competitions like Survivor and The Voice.

[citation needed] The practice of premiering new series following the Super Bowl was not been fully discontinued; Fox debuted Family Guy in 1999, American Dad!

[citation needed] A search and rescue team operates a Bell 204B "Super Huey" helicopter in the Rocky Mountains of Utah.
