Extra is an entertainment television news program covering events and celebrities which debuted on September 5, 1994 in syndication. It is produced at Victory Studios in Glendale, California by Telepictures Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television Distribution. Extra also had a spinoff show called Celebrity Justice, which ran for only three seasons from 2002-2005. The old CJ newsroom (on the second level of the Victory Studios building) is currently used by the Web site TMZ.com and spin-off TMZ on TV.

It was announced on January 29, 2007 that Extra has been renewed through the 2011-2012 season. The staff of Extra also produced a Sunday night program for The CW called CW Now from September 2007 to February 2008, when it was cancelled; the show continues to produce interstitial segments for that network.
