Cannonball is an American game show that aired on the USA Network from July 9 to September 3, 2020. Inspired by the British series of the same name, it featured 16 contestants from across America facing off in a series of water-based obstacle courses to win a cash prize of $10,000.

The series premiered on NBC as a special preview on June 29, 2020. The simulcast was made permanent shortly after, albeit in the form of a slightly edited broadcast television version, after receiving satisfactory response from audience.[1][2]
