Editing Destroyed objects

Due to the reckless disregard for property and sets that is common on ''Red Letter Media'', '''objects are often destroyed''' in a spectacular manner.

== ''Best of the Worst'' losers ==

Traditionally, ''[[Best of the Worst]]'' would select a loser in addition to [[Best of the Worst (Award)|a winner]]. The loser would be destroyed as a jab that the film was “so bad nobody deserves to watch it.” As the series has continued this practice became less common and films were only destroyed if they were particularly heinous (as evident by the occasional question along the lines of “is there anything we want to destroy?”)

Not all “destructions” actually result in the physical destruction of the tape. This list is only concerned with situations where the tape in question is actually damaged beyond repair. For a full list of tapes that were voted to be “destroyed”, see [[Best of the Worst (Award)#List of losers]].

* In [[Future War, The Jar, and White Fire]], ''The Jar'' is “pickled” in a jar of [[acetone]].

== The Wheel of the Worst ==

{{Main|The Wheel of the Worst}}

There have been five wheels in the time since ''[[Best of the Worst#Wheel of the Worst|Wheel of the Worst]]'' was introduced to ''Best of the Worst''. So far the first three have been destroyed, either accidentally or on purpose.

=== Wheel 1 ===

The first wheel was broken when [[Jack Packard]] knocked it over in celebration{{When|June 2024}}, breaking the wood holding it together. The entire spinning segment was replaced, which prompted this to be referred to as a “new wheel”.

=== Wheel 2 ===

The second wheel suffered the most abuse out of any of the other wheels. The crew attempted to throw it away, but the City of Milwaukee rejected it for disposal, returning it alongside other rejected trash items to RLM. Finally, [[Mike Stoklasa]] knocked it over while celebrating about ''Octopuff in Kumquat''{{When|June 2024}}. This split the wheel right down the center around the spoke that worked the entire mechanism, prompting [[Rich Evans]] to scream “No! No! It’s gone!” This wheel was gussied up for a brief cameo{{Which episode|June 2024}} before the reveal of Wheel 3 and was destroyed ceremoniously by [[Jim Maxwell|Jim]] and [[Colin Cunningham|Colin from Canada]].

=== Wheel 3 ===

The third wheel was built on its side to prevent abuse like this from taking place again, and to make the wheel sturdier and easier to spin. This wheel was largely untouched (though some people seemed to have trouble applying enough force to spin it) until Mike and Rich dropped a safe onto it to crush a Billy B. sing-along tape.{{When|June 2024}}

== The Plinkett Household ==

[[The Plinket Household]] is regularly subjected to abuse on ''[[Half in the Bag]]''.
