Destroy Build Destroy
Destroy Build Destroy is an American live action reality series on Cartoon Network hosted by Andrew W.K. It was a game show, in which two teams destroyed a random object and built vehicles from it, and then the winners destroyed the losers' creation. The series originally premiered as part of a line of live-action reality series called CN Real, which aired in 2009. The series premiered on June 20, 2009, and ended its run on September 21, 2011. "Destroy Build Destroy" is one of only two shows from the CN Real block (the other being "Dude , What Would Happen") to have been renewed for additional seasons, as the other CN Real shows had already been cancelled earlier, due to critically negative reception. Plot. "Destroy Build Destroy" is a game show in which two groups (a "green or blue" team and an "orange or yellow" team, usually grouped by theme such as common interests) of three teenage contestants destroy various objects, then build vehicles out of the wreckage to compete in some kind of challenge. The show features high powered explosives, rocket launchers, bazookas, and other destructive tools. The winning team gets $3,000 and would get  to destroy the losers' creation. However, if a tie occurs by the end of the final round, resulting in neither team winning, both vehicles are destroyed. Development. The show launched on June 20, 2009, in Carver, Massachusetts, as part of a new Cartoon Network programming block named CN Real.
