The Adrenaline Project is a Canadian youth extreme sports reality television series produced by Canadian production company marblemedia and distributed by Decode Entertainment. Season 1 premiered on September 29, 2007 on YTV's Get Real! block, and on FOX's 4Kids TV.ANIMATED SHORTS: SIGGRAPH 2007, 4 KIDS, & DIGIMON NEWS The first season was hosted by former MuchMoreMusic VJ Richard "Caz" Cazeau, and also featured Boomer Phillips.
YTV ordered a second season in April 2008, with it being shot the following summer. Hosted exclusively by Phillips, the 26-episode season premiered in Canada on September 6, 2008 at 6:00pm ET. This season was not broadcast in the US, as 4Kids TV cancelled the series on April 5, 2008, and it was not moved to its successor block, The CW4Kids.
Format In Season 1 each week, The Adrenaline Project takes five teenagers to Boomer's base camp, where they compete in two physical and mental challenges. One contestant is eliminated in each of the base camp challenges. The three remaining contestants go to Caz's final challenge and compete to win the competition and associated prizes.
In season 2, six teenagers compete each week in a tournament that spans half of the season. In each of the two semi-finals, five winners and one wild card compete in a series of three rounds in the same format. The two semi-final winners move on to the final to compete in a series of three challenges to determine the Ultimate Adrenalite. The second half of the season has 60 new competitors competing in the same tournament format. In addition, winners of this season would win a trip to Walt Disney World in FL. The Adrenaline Project is a Marblemedia production, and created by Mark Bishop and Matt Hornburg. Despite the fact that the show is a Canadian production, the version airing on YTV is not entirely the same as the version airing on 4Kids TV. During the episode in the US broadcasts, trivia will appear either horizontally or vertically displaying factoids relating to that particular event. This does not appear in the version airing on YTV. The program formerly aired on the Spanish-language, Latin American version of Boomerang.

Caz Caz is the co-host of The Adrenaline Project in season 1. Each week, Caz joins the three contestants that make it past Boomer's basic training, and travels with them to the destination for that week's final challenge. While the contestants don't know what they are in for until the last moment, Caz guides them through the final challenge. Caz does not appear in Season 2.
Boomer Boomer does the basic training for the five contestants and during the two rounds, the last place player is eliminated. In Season 2, Boomer is the only first-season host. He does basic training with the six contestants and hosts each of the three challenges.
