List of Extra Credits episodes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The first videos before the debut of web series Extra Credits were released on YouTube by the series' co-creator Daniel Floyd. The show was then picked up by The Escapist for the first 54 episodes before a contractual dispute forced the show to leave and be picked up by PATV. Technical limitations with PATV's site forced the official episodes to be categorized in seasons of 26 episodes each since the move.

Beginning on January 1, 2014, episodes were posted exclusively on Extra Credits YouTube channel.

YouTube-relels with the videos released by Floyd under the loose title Video Games A...
