Yeh, easiest way (not the best way) would be to bring TV into Flash, break the image apart (Modify > Break Apart). But, keep a duplicate layer of the TV that's not broken apart. You should use this layer for any time you won't be doing an explosion. Keep it nice and tidy.
Using the lasso tool, randomly select small portions of the broken apart TV to create explosion "shards". Group each pice so they don't stick together. Do that until the entire TV is comprised of small shard symbols.
Make a "symbol" of each broken piece you select (but keep the TV together, don't move the shards). (Modify > Convert To Symbol or use the shortcut keys)
And then just animate each piece outwards for the explosion. If you're a noob to Flash, I'd just make basic motion tweens using the timeline. You should easily be able to get that within 100k.
