Destroy Build Destroy premieres on the Cartoon Network on Saturday, June 20th, at 8:30 PM. Trailer, you guys:

Haha. What? Kids shoot bazookas the darndest things! This show looks nuts. Andrew WK should stop screaming at those children! It's going to make them nervous and they're going to mess up when they shoot the bazooka. You messed up! You shot your mom with a bazooka by accident because you were nervous because of all the screaming! Don't cry! Here, have a Mountain Dew: Code Red. Now use the pieces of your mom to build the coolest, strongest, most-efficient mom you can.

Were the producers afraid that if Andrew WK wasn't wearing the exact same clothes as he was wearing in his "Party Hard" video from eight years ago that we wouldn't have any fucking idea who he was? Maybe they were right.

It's all part of his stage persona. He's honestly nothing like that when he's out of character.

I'd still rather have him around my (non-existant) children than that Kate Gosselin woman.

I recently attended an Andrew WK concert and it played out pretty much exactly like this trailer.

I've always thought he was kind of like a real life Ted "Theodore" Logan.

This reminds me of that Nickelodeon show "Wild and Crazy Kids". Kind of. But like, WCK was more like a Highlights magazine I guess. And this show looks like "Tits and Ammo Monthly", with Kate Gosselin on the cover blowing up her car with her kids inside.

You should have spelled nuts with a "K" I'm no joke expert but I think that really would have solidified the zing.

lots of love,

mom

The only thing this show is missing is "Party Party Party" playing on a constant loop in the background. I can't fucking wait!

I liked this better when the kids played hockey with broomsticks and it was called Wild and Crazy Kids and it wasn't really as cool.

Who is Andrew WK and why does he walk around a dusty work area wearing a white t-shirt and off-white jeans?

so cartoon network has just totally given up on being a strictly cartoon network at this point, i guess? that's totally fine with me, although keeping the name "cartoon network" is misleading. they should drop the "cartoon" and go only by "network"

It seems to me there are two types of people in the world, people who like Andrew WK, and assholes.

So Andrew WK is the new more extreme Marc Summers. So that means that in 15 years he will be hosting a food network show where he shows you how extreme food is made, and then he will blow up the factory.
