10{{Angrish}} in WesternAnimation.
11----
12
13* Dr. Robotnik does this a number of times on ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'', usually expressing frustration that [[BumblingHenchmenDuo Scratch and Grounder]] [[SurroundedByIdiots screwed up again]] or that Sonic has foiled his latest evil scheme. Sometimes he gets so angry he becomes reduced to jumping up and down and growling like a demented gorilla.
14* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfSuperMarioBros3'';
15** In "Never Koop a Koopa", King Koopa finally has the heroes in the position to have Princess Toadstool sign away her kingdom to him. The Princess manages to delay the transfer by asking him to order a press conference, and when he leaves, his son Cheatsy (Larry) tries to get her to sign the kingdom to ''him''. In the resulting confusion, the good guys escape, leaving a furious Koopa to chase Cheatsy around his throne bellowing.
16** In "Princess Toadstool For President", after learning that no one, not even his own Koopa Kids voted for him, King Koopa is reduced to snarling angrily while chasing Cheatsy and Kookie.
17* Lemongrab from ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' is like this most of the time.
18** At the end of "A Glitch Is A Glitch," Princess Bubblegum degenerates into this as she destroys the Ice King's computer.
19* Played for laughs in ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' in the episode, "The Disaster".
20-->'''Nicole''': I told you to stop playing with that window but you never listen! Talking to you can be like...trying to comb the skin of a kiwi fruit! This is gonna cost a fortune! Do you think money grows on trees -- well I guess it does 'cause it's made of paper -- but that's not the point! I’m cutting off your allowance, we're broke enough as it is! I’m so angry I can’t think of words so I'm just gonna make sounds! '''BLAHGHLAGHBLAGHLAAGHUHHGH!!!'''
21** Happens in "The Safety" when Gumball finds out that Darwin's turned the childblocks on in the house (which has turned his genitals completely invisible instead of just being pixelated like they usually are.
22--> '''Gumball:''' *blood-curdling shriek followed by inarticulate hysterical gibberish*
23* Played straight and mocked often on ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}''. In one example the Warner Brothers [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg (and sister Dot)]] were driving a wacky director up the walls with their antics, prompting this response to a bit of OffscreenTeleportation:
24-->'''Director''': Hoyle! How'd you... with the going... you were there, but here now, you are, for me to see... How'd ya do?
25-->'''Yakko''': Did you understand any of that?
26-->'''Wakko''': I think he said *mocking* "Hoyle! How'd you... with the going... you were there, but here now, you are, for me to see... How'd ya do?"
27-->'''Yakko''': Thanks for clearing that up.
28** In one sketch where Dot had trouble pronouncing her OverlyLongName, she eventually flipped out and began stomping around in circles, venting an incoherent rant dotted with {{Sound Effect Bleep}}s.
29* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'': Sokka, when Aang and Toph wake him up from some well-earned rest. He gets up in his sleeping bag, hops over to Aang, babbles unintelligibly at him, hops over to Toph and babbles at her, then hops off, jibbering something that sounds like, "...running around and making noises and Sokka's trying to sleep!"
30* ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'': Linda slips into this when she's particularly pissed off. Apparently, it's the only way she knows how to curse.
31* In ''WesternAnimation/CentralPark'', Season 1 "[[Recap/CentralParkS1E5DogSprayAfternoon Dog Spray Afternoon]]", when Bitsy learns that her graffiti plan has been stopped, we hear her yelling angrily offscreen at her hotel.
32* It's revealed as a gag in ''WesternAnimation/{{Chowder}}'' that Schnitzel's normal speech of "radda radda radda" is just a long stream of angrish due to always being tense and frustrated.
33* ''WesternAnimation/CloneHigh'': Mr. Butlertron mumbles angry gibberish when he smashes a few things after Mr. Scudworth fired him in favor of Ecybopooch.
34* Grug from ''WesternAnimation/TheCroods'' is reduced to this several times throughout the movie as he tries (and fails) to deal with new things.
35* [[WesternAnimation/WackyRaces Muttley's]] [[WesternAnimation/DastardlyAndMuttleyInTheirFlyingMachines "sanafrazzin rassafrassin rickrastardry"]] is one of his verbal tics, mainly when he's either on the receiving end of a Dastardly DopeSlap or Dastardly weasels out of giving him a medal.
36** The Vulture Squadron Flight Book, part of a mail-in premium from Kellogg's (which sponsored ''Dastardly & Muttley'' in 1969) expounds on it further, denoting what each word meant. "Sanafrazzin": Not as strong as "rasafrassin." "Rasafrassin": Like "sanafrazzin", only stronger. "Sanafrazzin rasafrassin": Wow, what you said!
37* WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck from the WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts lives and breathes this trope.
38** This gets a nice lampshade in ''WesternAnimation/MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers'', when Donald tries to warn Mickey that Pete's evil... Donald says the entirety of the warning,[[note]]Which is actually ''perfectly understandable'' as far as Donald's voice goes.[[/note]] with Pluto and Mickey watching, the camera turns to them, they do a DoubleTake to each other, then Mickey says, "Donald, I have no idea what you're saying."
39** In the "dueling pianos" scene of ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'', the typical Donald incoherent rant[[note]] "Hey! Hey! Cut it out!"[[/note]] is lampshaded by Daffy ("Can anybody underthtand what thith duck is thaying?" and [[HypocriticalHumor "This is the latht time I work with thomeone with a thpeech impediment!"]]) and also birthed [[http://www.snopes.com/disney/films/donald.asp an urban legend]] that at one point Donald refers to Daffy as a "God damn stupid nigger."[[note]]What he actually said was "Doggone, stubborn little..."[[/note]]
40** This is pretty much the only "dialogue" that "Captain Pete" gets in ''WesternAnimation/SteamboatWillie''.
41* Brian does this in the ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' episode "The Finer Strings," to which Stewie asks him why he is "engaging in cartoon profanity."
42* In ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'', Fred Flintstone would spit out nonsense when he was angry. Either that, or he'll just growl.
43* Bender does this a ''lot'' in ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''. One particularly funny instance occurs in the second "Reincarnation" short where his enraged grunts are accompanied by visual [[SymbolSwearing Swear Symbols]] and his [[TurnsRed body flashing red]].
44** Fry, in "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back", manages to lose [[CloudCuckoolander even more of his grasp]] [[BuffySpeak of the English language]] than usual when Bender has his eccentric personality forcefully removed and downloaded to a diskette. He can only manically exclaim "But, Bender! Need brain!... For smartmaking!" to the bureaucrat who did it.
45--->"What did you do now? STOP DOING THINGS!"
46** '''Hermes''' (after contemplating jumping off the Planet Express building): "Sweet something, of someplace."
47** Also:
48--->"Professor! Lava! Hot!"
49** Professor Farnsworth built an angry dome [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin for being angry in.]] In the episode in which it appears he paces back and forth beneath the transparent dome muttering in Angrish.
50* In ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'' episode ''Nergal's Pizza'', Nergal pulls this when he finds out [[ItMakesSenseInContext that Billy poured dirty socks and used underwear in his sauce pot.]]
51* Kent Mansly ([[BrickJoke he works for the government]]) from ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant'' has a tendency to spout this when he can't so much as get a telephone to hang up correctly.
52* Dr. Drakken from ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' often drops into this when mocked by his sidekick.
53-->'''Shego:''' Dr D!
54-->'''Drakken:''' WHAT!?
55-->'''Shego:''' (deadpan) You've stopped using words.
56** That one was a result of working himself up with how much he hates Christmas. Also, listening closely reveals that the apparent gibberish is actually a ShoutOut to ''WesternAnimation/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas''.
57* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'':
58** Inflicted upon WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck in ''WesternAnimation/DuckAmuck''.
59---> '''Daffy:''' AAAAAAAHHHBBBLBLBLBLBBLB—AND I'VE NEVER BEEN SO HUMILIATED IN ALL MY LIFE!
60** WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam. "Raggar fraggar friggin frazzer" is one of his catchphrases. He turns it up in ''WesternAnimation/FromHareToHeir.''
61*** Sam is royalty in that episode. What is he, the prince of Angrand?[[note]]Not quite, he is the Duke of Yosemite.[[/note]]
62---> '''Yosemite Sam:''' "YYYYYA REGGA-PULVERATED FRATTIN-DROLLIN YATTIN PITTIN SWATTIN KALLEN-PATTA-RATTIN PENGALATTA-"
63** Either played straight or subverted with the Tasmanian Devil, a creature who seems in a perpetual state of being pissed off. He spit-growls, rages, and roars constantly, though has proven to be able to [[InvertedTrope speak coherently when very angry]]. "What for you bury me in the cold, cold ground?" Perhaps in his case, it's more "hungrish".
64** Even WesternAnimation/BugsBunny is not immune to this. Most notably in ''WesternAnimation/RabbitRampage'':
65---> '''Bugs''': "YOU GALDANG-CONSARNED-RAPSCALLION-BLANKITY-BLANK-BLANK-BLANK-YOU-TRYIN-TA-DO?!?!"
66** The 1959 short "Unnatural History" had a segment with a beaver damming a river. When part of the beaver's dam collapses, he starts cussing it out (or [[{{Pun}} "damning" the river]]) unintelligibly.
67* The ''Monk and Little Dog'' series of shorts, every time he fails to do something several times, he lets out an, '''''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGHH''''', followed with thunder background sounds and effects.
68* Depending on the situation, ''WesternAnimation/{{Mr Bogus}}'' will most of the time indulge in this, when he is really angry about something.
69* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'':
70** Rarity lapses into this in "Sisterhooves Social" when Sweetie Belle's attempts to help her go awry.
71** In ''[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E26TwilightsKingdomPart2 Twilights Kingdom Part 2]]'', Tirek's dialogue during the fight with Twilight consists largely of enraged roaring and growling.
72* The ''Franchise/{{Peanuts}}'' Easter special has Peppermint Patty speak Angrish after she tells Marcie to get the eggs ready to be decorated and she fries them. Peppermint Patty falls back on the good old fashioned "AAAUGH!" when Marcie cooks eggs in the waffle iron, attempts to toast or bake them and finally make egg soup.
73* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'':
74** In "Curses", the Girls fighting a giant lizard monster that has a toilet for a head and speaks entirely in this.
75** [[RageBreakingPoint Buttercup lapses into this after being told one too many times that she was dirty in "Down And Dirty".]]
76--->'''Buttercup:''' '''''[[BigWhat WHAAAAAAAAAAAT?!]]''''' Uff! Guh! JUHSKSPLHKGRR!
77** In "All Chalked Up", Bubbles' reaction to Buttercup destroying her chalk is just angry mumbling, growling, and gasping noises, which eventually turns into InelegantBlubbering.
78** In "Simian Says", where Mojo Jojo kidnaps the {{Narrator}} and takes his place, he launches into this near the end when he finds himself unable to work the computer in the narrating booth.
79* Ed Bighead in ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'' often mutters incoherent babble grumpily under his breath whenever he's feeling annoyed.
80* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
81** "$pringfield, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling" features a hilarious example when a furious Homer confronts Marge about her gambling addiction.
82--->'''Homer:''' [grabbing Marge] Jergiddaberdareddaarra!
83--->'''Marge:''' Homer, what is it? Slow down!
84--->'''Homer:''' [slowly] Jer gidda berda redda arra.
85--->'''Marge:''' Think before you say each word.
86--->'''Homer:''' (''with TranquilFury'') You broke a promise to your child!
87** Also from the ''Simpsons'', in a flashback when Edna Krabappel breaks up with Moe.
88** After a ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk'' shoutout where Bart steals a penny jar from Homer, he escapes onto the school bus while Homer, still in his underwear, screams and gibbers hysterically as it drives away.
89** After eating the poisonous Fugu fish, Dr. Hibbert explains the 5 stages of Death Anxiety to Homer. The 2nd is anger, to which Homer responds by yelling at Hibbert "WHY YOU LITTLE-! DEH,DOOOOH,YAHYUH!"
90** And don't forget Ned Flanders. His psychologist even explains that a treatment he received as a child to make him behave better (spanking) worked too well and so, whenever he felt anger, he could only express it by spouting a chain of incoherent made-up words.
91*** "Well I'll be darn-diddly-arned." "Whoa, now, steady on there. I'm here to help, you know."
92*** His anger finally overcomes this mental block and inverts the trope, his burning rage turning him into an eloquent DeadpanSnarker who delivers a city-wide TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
93---->'''Flanders:''' Calm down, Neddly-diddily-diddily-diddily-doodily. They did their best, shoddily-iddily-iddily-iddily-diddily-diddily. Gotta be nice, hostidididildilidilly... AW, HELL-DIDDILY-DING-DONG ''CRAP''! CAN'T YOU MORONS DO ''ANYTHING'' RIGHT?!?
94** When Bart get himself, Milhouse, Nelson, and Martin stuck in Knoxville, Tennessee, and calls Lisa to get help, so when Lisa tells Homer, he [[TranquilFury calmly excuses himself]], puts on a radiation helmet to hide what he's about to say from Lisa, and angrily screams so much he fogs up the viewing plate in the helmet.
95** When Moe does this, he refers it as "choking on his own rage".
96* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'''s Eric Cartman goes deep into this [[HairTriggerTemper when he doesn't get his way]].
97** Also, the angry townspeople's chant of "Rabble rabble rabble!" whenever anything goes wrong in the town.
98** DEY TOOK ER JUHBZ! DURKUR JURB! DOOKER DOO! ''Cock-a-doodle-doo''
99* Zorak in the ''WesternAnimation/SpaceGhostCoastToCoast'' episode "Flipmode". A gas leak has cauased the cast to act crazy(er), and Zorak eventually takes refuge in vent. While trying to get him out, Space Ghost gets trapped in the pipe as well. Zorak starts to freak out, screaming at him to get out, and starts to shout gibberish.
100* This has happened to ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' a few times.
101--> '''[=SpongeBob=]:''' ''JIMMY MIMMY SPEND!''
102** Likewise, it's happened to Squidward as well. "No, Squidward, we've already played Babble Like An Idiot!"
103** Another example occurs in "I'm with Stupid" when Spongebob is steadily reaching his RageBreakingPoint when the absurd stupidity of Patrick and two other starfish starts to get him.
104-->'''Spongebob:''' 2 + 2 = 4!\
105'''Marty:''' Wow! You taught him math too!\
106'''Spongebob:''' ''NOOOOOOO!''\
107'''Marty:''' And you taught him to sing!\
108'''Spongebob:''' ''(incoherent gibberish rage)''\
109'''Marty:''' Uh oh, he's short circuiting, guess he was taught too much.
110** Also, Mrs. Puff says [=SpongeBob=] has a very 'colorful vocabulary' after said sponge spouts spiraling smashy random words about Mr. Krabs and his monetary greed, something unintelligible, and Mrs. Puff looks shocked after flipping through a pocket dictionary to find out what he says. To be fair, in another episode the local cursing technique is a small 13 variety of naval sounds. Makes you wonder why the heck that ancient dolphin warrior (later episode, differing season), wasn't being treated as cursing his head off after the volcanic explosion, considering the substandard annoyance of the cursing (LampshadeHanging) episode is a dolphin sound. The cursing episode ends with Mr. Krab's MOTHER saying a jalopy sound after hitting a similar rock to the earlier curse-initiating rock. Luckily it was just another car horn of the local Mr. Jenkins (in fact, if you read her lips carefully, you'll see that she's saying "My poor old foot!").
111** In "Rock Bottom", [=SpongeBob=] does this when an egg hatches three more creatures in front of him on line, causing him to sink into his pants and jump around violently while cussing.
112* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'':
113** Peridot is prone to this when she gets mad; in "Friend Ship" she growls incoherently while trying to get some ancient Gem technology working properly.
114** In "Drop Beat Dad", when Sour Cream calls out his father Marty for using a rave SC threw to promote a crappy guacamole-flavored soda, he slips into [[TheUnintelligible the same gibberish language]] spoken by his step-father Yellowtail.
115** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPAPehglKGQ Ruby.]][[note]]For specific examples, see the timestamps at 0:06, 0:13, 0:33, 0:46, and especially 0:52.[[/note]]
116* In the ''[[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003 Fast Forward]]'' episode "Timing Is Everything", Donatello gets the shocked version when he and Splinter go back in time to the accident that produced him:
117-->'''Donatello:''' Was that... did we just... were those... ''us''?! Did I just see... my own ''creation''? ''[[GirlyScream Aaah!]]''\
118'''Splinter:''' Deep breaths, my son, deep breaths.
119* ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'': In her debut episode, after getting herself stuck on a level crossing, Mavis is reduced to growling and screaming incoherently in frustration. Actual narration from the episode:
120-->"'''GRRR! ARGH!'''", wailed Mavis.
121* In the ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' episode ''Wacko World Of Sports'', Buster and Babs are sent flying into a trash container by an angered group of people. Upon digging himself out, Buster starts swearing in Angrish until Babs empties a bucket of water onto him.
122* ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' the more choleric characters such as [[BigBad Megatron]], [[AxCrazy Galvatron]], [[TheStarscream Starscream]] and [[HairTriggerTemper Afterburner]] would lapse into this if their temper got the best of them.
123* In the ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' episode "Metal Attraction", Breakdown, who's just been buried in the ground by Airachnid, lets out a long string of angrish to which she merely replies:
124-->'''Airachnid:''' Sorry, can't understand you.
125** Another instance of this is in "Orion Pax, Part 1", courtesy of Arcee, after [[spoiler:Soundwave tricks her into taking a Ground-Bridge to the Arctic before she could reach an amnesiac Optimus Prime on the ''Nemesis''.]] Airachid is also prone to these, including when Soundwave pulled the same trick.
126** Par for the course, Megatron and Starscream often grunt, growl and roar when their plans (are about to) fail. Including at each other.
127* ''WesternAnimation/YellowSubmarine'' -- Old Fred flees the invasion of his home land and finds himself in Liverpool, at the home of Music/TheBeatles. He passionately tells his plight in a stream of incomprehensible babble, ending in "Blue Meanieeees!!!", telling it to each band member in turn, exactly the same way, so by the third telling, Ringo and John join in on "Blue Meanieeees!!!"
128-->'''George:''' (''to John and Ringo'') Ah, you're nuts, the pair o' ya!
129
