| 11 | ->''"You dumb bots wouldn't know success if it bit you on the ''bumper''! While ''I''... the ''baron'' of ''badness''... the ''knight'' of ''nastiosity''... am on the brink of my ''greatest'' success!"'' |

| 17 | * Lemongrab from ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime''. It says something that [[EstablishingCharacterMoment his first line in the show]] is "This castle is... in... unacceptabllle... CONDITIIION! UNACCEPTABLLLEEE!!!". Though many, if not most, of the characters in ''Adventure Time'' are large hams, our pal Lemongrab takes the cake as the largest ham, thanks to his shrill, high-pitched, constantly shrieking voice, unnecessary charisma, and sheer, undiluted rage towards everything that even remotely disagrees with him. |
| 18 | ** Ice King too: |
| 19 | --->'''Ice King:''' I'm taunting you! ''PSYCHOLOGICALLY!'' |
| 20 | ** MAGIC MAAAAAAANN! |
| 21 | ** For ham flambé, look no further than Flame Princess: |
| 22 | ---> '''Flame Princess: ''' Release him... OR FEEL THE WRATH OF THE PRINCESS OF FLAMES!!!\ |
| 23 | '''Flame Princess: ''' DO THE SPLITS! DO THE SPLITS THOU MILK-LIVERED MAGGOT PIE!!!! |
| 24 | ** Actually, it's pretty fair to say that ''every'' character on ''Adventure Time' has at least one Large Ham moment. |
| 25 | %% * In ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'', Long John Baldry did a fantastic portrayal of Dr. Robotnik this way. Here are a few choice lines: |
| 26 | %% ** "Sonic is trapped in there! And the rest of Mobius is ''out here!'' Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha! And ''it's mine!'' IT'S MINE! All mine! '''ALL ''MINE!!!'''''" |
| 27 | %% **[[LampshadeHanging "Did I say that already?"]] |
| 28 | %% ** "'''[[WhoDares HOW]] ''[[WhoDares DARE]]'' ANYONE ON MOBIUS LAUGH AT THE GREAT DR. ROBOTNIK!!!''' No one makes fun of me! '''NO ONE!''' ''(slams magazine to the ground)'' Whoever's responsible for this outrage will be my first prisoner! ''(jumps into the air)'' '''[[WhoWritesThisCrap BRING ME THE VILE CREATURE WHO DREW THIS CARTOON!!!]]'''" |
| 29 | %% ** "Why is my precious rocket ship drifting off into deep space?! ''Why'' am I reaching you at the coordinates of the abandoned space station?! '''''[[BigWhy WHY?! WHY?! WHY?!?!]]'''''" |
| 30 | %% ** "Sonic fell for it! Tails is ours! I'll have to give myself a '''[[TrrrillingRrrs Prrrr]]omotion!'''" |
| 31 | %% ** "SnooPING AS usual, I seeeeee..." |
| 32 | %% ** "'''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis IIII! HAAATE! THAAAT! HEEEEEDGEHOOOOG!!!]]''' ''(jumps up and down)'' '''I HATE HIM!''' '''I''' '''''HATE HIM!!!''''' How am I supposed to turn Mobians into slaves if he keeps ''ruining'' all of my plans?!" |
| 33 | %% ** "I ''hate'' seafood! AND... '''HEDGEHOGS!!!'''" |
| 34 | %% ** The monologue at the beginning of "Blackbot the Pirate" is a veritable banquet of ham: |
| 35 | %% ---> "At last! My very own time machine! Now I can proceed with my cleverest plan of all time: Gathering the four most important items in the history of Mobius! The all-powerful Chaos Emeralds! With them, I will possess: ''Invisibility,'' ''invincibility,'' ''immortality,'' and finally, ''the power of life itself.'' With the Chaos Emeralds, no one can stop me from becoming the supreme high Robotnik! Today: ''Mobius.'' Tomorrow: '''''THE UNIVERRRRSSSE!!!'''''" |
| 36 | %% ** It's not one of his most known quotes, but easily the quote of Robotnik's that best describes him is "[[NoIndoorVoice 300 pounds of ham!]]" |
| 37 | %% * Clyde Crashcup from ''WesternAnimation/TheAlvinShow''. |
| 38 | * Stanley Chan in ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingChanAndTheChanClan'', especially when he's in one of his many disguises. |
| 39 | * After seven years of wonderful, nuanced work on ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'', Creator/PatrickStewart now does the voice of Bullock, Stan's CIA boss on ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'', and he is a ''huge'' ham. |
| 40 | ** Stan is as well. And then there's Roger... |
| 41 | ** Speaking of Creator/PatrickStewart and overly-sized pork products, he parodied Creator/SeanConnery's porky cameo as [[UsefulNotes/RichardTheLionHeart King Richard]] in ''Film/RobinHoodPrinceOfThieves'' by delivering a high-fat-and-cholesterol-filled performance of same in ''Film/RobinHoodMenInTights''. Because, as everyone knows... "It's good to be the king." |
| 42 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': No list of Large Hams would be complete without GENERAL YUNAN, ''SCOURGE OF THE SAND WARS, DEFEATER OF RAGNAR THE WRETCHED,'' '''''AND THE YOUNGEST NEWT TO EVER ACHIEVE THE RANK OF GENERAL IN THE GREAT NEWTOPIAN ARMY!''''' |
| 43 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAngryBeavers'' Norbert Beaver also qualifies as a Ham. |
| 44 | ** With his trusty '''HELMUUUUUUTTTTT!!!!!!''' |
| 45 | * Dr Weird from ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce''. There's his ''CatchPhrase'' "'''Gentlemen... BEHOLD!'''" and then there is his tendency to announce even the most mundane of actions in a loud booming voice. "''Observe, as I... '''''ADJUST THE HEAT! MWA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAA!!'''"[[note]]Do note, though, that he was turning it up to ''300 FREAKING DEGREES''![[/note]] |
| 46 | ** "'''Gentlemen... ''BEHOLD!'' I have made ''LOVE'' to this ''[[CargoShip MACHINE!]]'' And now, upon retrospect, I ask....''WHY?'''''" |
| 47 | *** "'''''MY METAL BOY!'''''" |
| 48 | ** "'''Gentlemen... I BRING YOU...''' '''''[++MORE CORN!!!"++]''''' |
| 49 | *** "'''AH HA HA! It's not different at ''ALL'', is it, [[ButtMonkey Steve?]]'''" |
| 50 | ** Master Shake as well. |
| 51 | ** On the villain side, Doctor Wongburger and balloon Hitler. |
| 52 | * ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' is a series just bursting with Large Hams. Not only villains and main characters, but lots of secondary and even one-time characters as well. |
| 53 | ** Over reacting to almost everything, Sokka hams it up a couple of times ''every'' episode. |
| 54 | ---> "I'm going to spend my vacation [[MundaneMadeAwesome AT THE LIBRARY!!!]]" |
| 55 | --->"APPA ATE MOMO!!" |
| 56 | *** Even more when he's disguised in the Fire Nation as '''WANG FIRE'''. |
| 57 | ** Jeong Jeong. Every line that Jeong Jeong said was super serious and dramatic, especially when he angsted about how much of a BURDEN firebending is. Add to that that his voice itself is quite hammy, no matter what he is saying. Hey, his pupil Zhao had to get it from somewhere. |
| 58 | ---> ''"What would a boy know of destiny? If a fish lives its whole life in this river, does he know the river's destiny? NO! Only that it runs on and on out of his control! He may follow where it flows, but he cannot see the end. He cannot imagine the ocean!"'' |
| 59 | ---> ''"I've always wished I were blessed like you, [[Katara]]. Free of this BURNING CURSE."'' |
| 60 | ---> ''"Water brings healing and life. Fire brings only DESTRUCTION and PAIN."'' |
| 61 | ** Ozai ([[MeaningfulName HAMill]] again) in the finale. |
| 62 | ---> ''"You're ''weak''! Just like the rest of your people! They did not deserve to exist in this world, in ''my'' world! Prepare to join them! [[PrepareToDie Prepare to DIIIIIIE!]]"'' |
| 63 | ---> ''"I have [[AGodAmI all the power IN THE WORLD]]!"'' |
| 64 | ** Like in everything else, Azula follows closely in her father's footsteps. Unlike lots of other Large Hams, she doesn't have to resort to shouting every single one of her lines. Instead she has the overwhelming charisma and just the right amount of insanity to make almost everyone cower before her instinctively. Then, once they are shaking with fear, THE HAM IS UNLEASHED! |
| 65 | ---> '''''Yes''! [[UnsportsmanlikeGloating We have defeated you for all time!]] ''[[SeriousBusiness YOU WILL NEVER RISE FROM THE ASHES OF YOUR SHAME AND HUMILIATION!]]''... [[WasntThatFun Well, that was fun.]] |
| 66 | ---> '''Azula''' ''"Together, you and I will be the strongest couple in the entire world. '''[[WeCanRuleTogether WE WILL DOMINATE THE EARTH!]]''''' (columns of blue fire burst from her hands) |
| 67 | ---> '''Chan:''' ''"*IdiotCrows* Uh... [[NoGuyWantsAnAmazon I gotta go]]."'' |
| 68 | ** Azula appears just right after Season 1 villain Zhao was defeated (even the same episode). When it came to hamminess, her predecessor was just like her. |
| 69 | --->'''Zhao''': ''"I am... a ''legend'' now. The Fire Nation will for generations tell stories about the great Zhao, who darkened the moon! They will call me Zhao the Conqueror! Zhao the ''Moon Slayer''! Zhao, the '''INVINCIBLE'''!!!''" |
| 70 | ** While usually more of the DeadpanSnarker type, Toph also enjoys some really good hamming from time to time. Usually while beating the crap out of large numbers of much larger men by throwing around boulders. Among other things, giving the (intentionally) most hammy performance of the entire series: |
| 71 | ---> '''''"I AM MELON-LORD!!! [[AxCrazy MUAHAHAHAHA!!!]]"''''' |
| 72 | ---> ''"WHOOOO!!! Toph, you rule!"'' |
| 73 | ---> ''"What's your fighting name? The Fancy Dancer?!"'' |
| 74 | ---> ''"Please, do people really want to see '''two''' little girls fighting?"'' |
| 75 | ---> ''"Yeah, let´s break some rules!!!" ''(breaks a wall for emphasis) |
| 76 | *** Toph actually gets one of the most hammy moments in the show, after she invented Metalbending. Upon hearing a strange voice from behind, her kidnappers go to check on their prisoner, just to discover a big rupture in the empty metal box she was supposed to be in. |
| 77 | ---->'''Master Yu:''' It´s another one of her tricks!\ |
| 78 | '''Xin Fu:''' There´s a giant hole in the box! How´s that a trick?!\ |
| 79 | '''Toph(off-screen):''' It´s not. |
| 80 | ----->''(they turn around to see her standing up the hill)'' |
| 81 | ---->'''Toph''': It´s the real deal! |
| 82 | ----->''(two swift motions of her arms later the two are in a rocky sandwich, another one throws them in the box. Then she leaps to the metal box, closes the hole like a curtain ''barehanded'', jumps on top and delivers this nice piece of ham:)'' |
| 83 | ---->'''Toph''': I am the greatest earth bender in the world! Don't you two dunderheads ever forget! |
| 84 | ----->''(stomps on the box for emphasis, before leaping from it and creating an earthwave on which she '''surfs away!''')'' |
| 85 | ** Before any of that, we were given the [[ProfessionalWrestling "Professional Earthbenders"]], especially "The Boulder." Let's see... he's a pastiche of Wrestling/DwayneJohnson, both in looks (sort of) and personality (Johnson's legendary character ''The Rock''), ''and'' is voiced by another professional wrestler, Wrestling/MickFoley, who is a friend of The Rock's and can be -- and has been -- as over-the-top and cheesy as other wrestlers. One listen to The Boulder's lines tells you that Mick was ''having a grand old time'' voicing The Boulder. |
| 86 | ** Being one of the greatest {{Self Parod|y}}ies in recent years, ''The Ember Island Players'' are overacting the entire time, trying to out ham each other. |
| 87 | ---> ''"I'm so filled with hope that I'm TEARBENDING!"'' |
| 88 | ---> ''"HONOOOOOOOOOOR!"'' |
| 89 | ** The prison warden who imprisons Haru. It helps that he's voiced by Creator/GeorgeTakei. |
| 90 | ** [[FruitCart MY CABBAGES!!!]] |
| 91 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheAvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes'': |
| 92 | ** Dr. Klaw under the effects of Vibranium takes Creator/MarkHamill's inherit hamminess and multiplies it exponentially. '''EXPONENTIALLY!!''' |
| 93 | ** Thor and Graviton, too. |
| 94 | * ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' gives us Comicbook/{{AQUAMAN}}, BoisterousBruiser par excellence and '''King of the Seas!!''' |
| 95 | ** '''OUTRAGEOUS!''' |
| 96 | ** It also gave us MUSICAL HAM in the form of '''[[Creator/NeilPatrickHarris THE MUSIC MEISTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!]]''' |
| 97 | ** Batman himself is a rather unusual case. He delivers every line like an overblown stage performer giving a live reading of a comic book, but somehow still manages to play the straight man. He even gets away with shouting overblown one-liners every chance he gets. |
| 98 | *** HAMMERS OF JUSTICE |
| 99 | * ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHead:'' Beavis' Cornholio persona, who shouts at the top of his lungs in a faux Spanish accent, demanding t.p. and ranting about the almighty bunghole, all in a dramatic, over the top fashion. |
| 100 | -->"ARE YOU THREATENING ME?! YOU DO NOT WANT TO FACE THE WRATH OF MY '''BUNGHOLE!!!'''" |
| 101 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}}''. The limelight is never too bright for him. Claire Brewster (Lydia's school rival) is a close second. Lydia herself is a ColdHam, while the Netherworld is very much a WorldOfHam. |
| 102 | * While there are several good choices to pick from in the ''Franchise/Ben10'' Universe, there are two top picks that must be mentioned. Doctor Aloysius James Animo Hams up every appearance he makes, even which makes sense when you realize that he is voiced by Creator/DwightSchultz (The Original Captain H. M. "Howling Mad" Murdock of the A-Team), and while many of Ben's Transformations Ham it up, including Feedback (his favorite), Spidermonkey, Bullfrag, Humungosaur, and Atomix... just to name a few,... one form tops the list... Rath, so much so that he's a Ham even when someone else is somehow transformed into him, and other characters have actually stated they like to just pull up a chair and sit back with a tub of popcorn to watch Rath in action. Between his calling out his attacks, yelling at anything and everything, talking in the 3rd person, using full names and titles to talk to people, mixing his metaphors and adages, and staring lines with "Let me tell you something..." Rath Hams every moment up when he appears and chews scenery like nobody's business. |
| 103 | --> '''Rath''': "LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING COUNTLESS TROPERS UNIFIED TO COLLECT, COMMENT, AND QUANTIFY EVERY PIECE OF FICTIONAL AND FACTUAL TROPINESS... RATH DOESN'T LIKE BEING PUT IN A NEAT BOX, DON'T TRY TO PUT RATH IN A NEAT BOX, YOU WOULDN'T LIKE RATH IN A NEAT BOX, CAUSE RATH IN A NEAT BOX IS LIKE AN ANGRY CAGED TIGER!!! SO THERE!!! AND YOU, TVTROPES SITE, RATH WILL BREAK YOU, RATH WILL CRACK YOU LIKE THE WEAK GIRLY EGGMAN YOU ARE MENTIONING AT THE TOP OF THIS LIST!!!" |
| 104 | * ''WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce'' |
| 105 | ** '''''[[CatchPhrase LEMME TELL YA SOMETHIN']], TV TROPES!!''''' '''NO ALIEN IS AS HAMMY AS RATH IS! [[BoisterousBruiser WANNA FIGHT ABOUT IT]]?! COME ON, ''[[BloodKnight LET'S FIGHT]]'''''!!! |
| 106 | ** Albedo demands that you "BRING ME CHILLI FRIES!" |
| 107 | * The eponymous Big Guy of ''WesternAnimation/BigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot'' is prone to making pronouncements like this one: "'''No not of this Earth surgical probe wielding invaders are going to deprive this planet's children, and their growing bones, of even one glass of wholesome milk!'''" The contrast between the understated, somewhat cynical Lieutenant Hunter and the overblown, jingoistic personality he takes on while piloting the Big Guy mech goes a long way to explain why almost no one ever catches on that they are one and the same. |
| 108 | * Limburger from the original ''WesternAnimation/BikerMiceFromMars'' series was a bit like this on most occasions and also a SmallNameBigEgo. From the new series there's Ronaldo Rump and also Hairball. |
| 109 | * ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'' is basically a WorldOfHam since overreacting seems to be their bread and butter. |
| 110 | ** [[OnlySaneMan Bob]] is prone to this trope. A [[Funny/BobsBurgers Crowning Moment of Funny]] would be in "Torpedo" when he was yelling "Bob's Burgers" over and over. |
| 111 | ** [[TheDitz Gene]] basically [[NoIndoorVoice shouts too often.]] |
| 112 | ** [[CloudCuckooLander Louise]]. Good luck finding an episode where she doesn't scream. |
| 113 | * From ''WesternAnimation/TheBoondocks'', we have '''COLONEL H. "MUTHAFUCKIN'" STINKMEANER!''' He is almost always yelling at the top of his lungs. |
| 114 | * Jerry Colonna as the narrator in the 1950 short ''WesternAnimation/TheBraveEngineer''. |
| 115 | -->'''Eeeegaaaaad!!''' |
| 116 | * Mr. Bumpy from ''WesternAnimation/BumpInTheNight'' also tends to ham it up. Then again, he ''was'' voiced by Creator/JimCummings. |
| 117 | --> '''Bumpy:''' Dee-STRUCTO! Care for a little KARAOKE!? |
| 118 | * Elvis in ''WesternAnimation/ButchCassidyAndTheSundanceKids'' sometimes. In "Double Trouble" Wally and Steffy want him to fake ill to call a vet. Elvis acts as if he's practically got the plague. |
| 119 | * Edward from ''WesternAnimation/CampLazlo'' is arguably the biggest ham on the show. |
| 120 | * ''WesternAnimation/CaptainNTheGameMaster'': |
| 121 | ** Mother Brain was voiced by the lead singer of The Four Tops (you know; the one who voiced the ever-hammy [[Film/LittleShopOfHorrors Audrey II]]). Always dramatic, always flamboyant, always fantastic. |
| 122 | ---> It won't be long before I, the beautiful goddess that I am, become queen of Videoland! |
| 123 | ** Simon Belmont was barely any better. |
| 124 | %%* Captain Planet and the eco-villains in ''WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers''. |
| 125 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheCatInTheHat'': IIIIIII AM INDEED A CAT! [[PunctuatedForEmphasis And this. indeed. is a HAT!]] |
| 126 | * Mr Blik from ''WesternAnimation/{{Catscratch}}'' and any other character voiced by Creator/WayneKnight. |
| 127 | * Both Snap and Skrawl from ''WesternAnimation/ChalkZone''. The latter was played by Creator/JimCummings, after all. |
| 128 | * [[WorldOfHam The entire cast]] of ''WesternAnimation/{{Chowder}}'', but the title character in particular, with Mung Daal a close second. |
| 129 | * ''WesternAnimation/CloneHigh'' has Prof. Cinnamon J. Scudworth. |
| 130 | -->"DAMN IT! I haven't been to the Olive Garden in ''like FOREVER''!"\ |
| 131 | [[TheKhan "STAMOS!"]] |
| 132 | ** The Pusher. Nuff said. |
| 133 | * ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'': |
| 134 | ** Moosk, who is both an exceptionally large ham and an AffectionateParody of Minsc, also voiced by Creator/JimCummings. "'''Spray starch?! SPRAY STARCH!!!'''" |
| 135 | ** [[BigBad Father]] and {{Gr|eaterScopeVillain}}andfather are both overdramatic in their proclamations of evilness. |
| 136 | * The Red Guy from ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken''. HELLO! IT'S ME! |
| 137 | * On ''WesternAnimation/CreativeGalaxy'', Captain Paper speaks in a loud "superhero" type voice and likes to ham it up, despite being a captain of nothing more than paper. |
| 138 | * Jay Sherman from ''WesternAnimation/TheCritic'' could be rather hammy from time to time, but when your voice actor is Creator/JonLovitz, that comes with the territory. |
| 139 | * Creator/ChristopherLloyd's role as "Hacker" on ''WesternAnimation/{{Cyberchase}}'' involves reading each line in a maniacal howl. |
| 140 | * Most characters from ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' could qualify as LargeHam at times. |
| 141 | ** [[Creator/RobPaulsen Jack Fenton:]] If a LargeHam is both large and eats ham (as well as '''''FUDGE!''''') does this make him a large ham squared? |
| 142 | ---> [''talking about ghosts''] "...and rip it apart '''''Molecule''''' by '''''Molecule'''''!" |
| 143 | ** '''"I... AM TECHNUS! GHOST MASTER OF SCIENCE AND ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY!"''' |
| 144 | *** Sam actually uses this against him the first time they fight by asking him to shout out his name and motive. He happily complies, giving Sam and Tucker time to upload a virus. |
| 145 | ** Super Danny from ''Identity Crisis.'' "I'm not alright, I'm '''''DANNY FENTON!'''''" |
| 146 | ** "I am the '''''BOX GHOST! BEWARE!'''''" |
| 147 | ** Lunch Lady: "PREPARE TO TASTE DEFEAT! ''*{{Beat}}*'' [[MoodWhiplash Aaaand would you like a nice salad with that]]?" |
| 148 | ** Undergrowth: "'''''I AM EVERYWHERE!!!'''''" |
| 149 | * ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'': |
| 150 | ** The title character, particularly when he's monologuing. Over on the villain side, we have Negaduck (whose hammy nature is befitting, as he's DW's EvilTwin), and Tuskerninni, an ex-actor/director turned criminal: |
| 151 | --->'''Darkwing:''' I caught that hateful, underhanded ham Tuskerninni robbing a bank!\ |
| 152 | '''Tuskernini:''' Objection! [[ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne I am not a ham!]] |
| 153 | ** Practically all of Darkwing's enemies are Grade-A Hams: [=MegaVolt=], The Liquidator, Quackerjack, and even one time villain Ordinary Guy. |
| 154 | * ''WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian'': |
| 155 | ** The Narrator, whose thrill-packed PurpleProse is often hilariously at odds with the mundane activities shown onscreen. |
| 156 | ** Even a small ham can be a Large Ham, as evidenced by The Dark Lord [[FluffyTheTerrible Chuckles the Silly Piggy]] And he is [[VisualPun MADE of ham.]] |
| 157 | * ''Creator/DCComics'': |
| 158 | ** The Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse version of [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker The Joker]] is hammy to a certain extent. |
| 159 | *** He was particularly hammy in the early episode "The Last Laugh", with lines such as "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEBLOSkBMZ4 You're going to MELT just like a griiilled cheeeeese sandwiiich!]]" and (regarding a large robot) "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KCJxXwq20U You killed Captain Clown :(. YOU KILLED CAPTAIN CLOWN!!! >:(]]" |
| 160 | *** It's telling that the Joker had the most frequent DoNotAdjustYourSet plots, so he could broadcast his villainous (and hammy) acts to the world. Hell, let's just say that if you're playing the Joker, you're gonna ham it up. |
| 161 | *** DCAU Joker was played by Creator/{{Mark|Hamill}} [[MeaningfulName HAMill]], who would practice his {{Evil Laugh}}s when driving along LA highways, trying to be as hammy as possible. |
| 162 | ** [[Characters/BatmanTheScarecrow The Scarecrow]] in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''. Especially when he's getting hauled back to Arkham: |
| 163 | --->'''Scarecrow''': ''I am the master of fear! The lord of despair! Cower before me and witness terror!''\ |
| 164 | '''Harley Quinn''': Hi, Professor Crane.\ |
| 165 | '''Scarecrow''': Good evening, child. ''*{{beat}}*'' '''''[[MoodWhiplash Worship me, fools! Worship me!]] Scream hosannas of anguish to Scarecrow, [[AGodAmI the all-terrible God of Fear]]!''''' |
| 166 | *** Averted for Scarecrow in ''The New Batman Adventures'' when the showrunners realized that, though entertaining, Crane's hamminess [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools was working in direct opposition to his scariness]]. The resulting changes to his design and vocal direction worked wonders. |
| 167 | ----> '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owaMoWmD2vE Director Dan Riba:]]''' They just had him whisper. And that whispery rasp was ''so'' scary... and we realized, you know, maybe we were trying too hard earlier. |
| 168 | ** Characters/{{Harley Quinn|TheCharacter}} ain't no slouch either, [[VerbalTic puddin']]. [[PerkyFemaleMinion Ditzy attitude]] + {{Joisey}} accent you could cut with a chainsaw + [[MadLove total batshit crazy infatuation]] with [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker Mistah J]] = Masterclass in Minion Ham. |
| 169 | ** The DCAU Penguin has his moments as well. Lampshaded in the episode "Almost Got 'im": |
| 170 | --->'''Penguin''' (telling his story to the other crooks): Greetings, Batman! You have taken the bait, as I knew you would. Now, prepare to meet your end, within my ''Aviary of {{Doom|yDoomsOfDoom}}!''\ |
| 171 | '''Poison Ivy''' (interrupting): Aviary of WHAT?\ |
| 172 | '''Joker''': Yeesh, Pengers! How corny can you get?\ |
| 173 | '''Penguin''': Fah! Just because you mundane miscreants have no drama in your souls! Anyway, there he was in my Av... uh, big birdhouse... |
| 174 | ** Maxie Zeus is a textbook example. Schizophrenically believing you're the reincarnation of a Greek god tends to do that to you. |
| 175 | ** Black Mask [[ChewingTheScenery chews the scenery]] in pretty much all of his scenes in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanUnderTheRedHood''. |
| 176 | --->'''Black Mask''': Maybe my last request was too mired in subtlety. I want this man dead. And when I say dead, I mean seriously dead! BEATEN! BROKEN! HIS HEAD MOUNTED ON MAH WALL KINDA DEAD! |
| 177 | --->'''Black Mask''': And when he shows up to shut us down, have a party waiting for him! And when I say party, I actually mean [[DontExplainTheJoke A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE GONNA KILL HIM!]] |
| 178 | ** The ''WesternAnimation/HarleyQuinn2019'' version of Clayface is all but called one InUniverse. He has a tendency to lean into his every role and overact like hell, and in a behind the scenes Creator/AlanTudyk references how he [[AccentUponTheWrongSyllable overemphasises syllables when he's in character]] to sound more theatrical. |
| 179 | --->'''Clayface as Superman:''' Brother! It is Iiiiii, the [=SuperMAAAN=] from Kryptalon! And these people are not your enemy-\ |
| 180 | ''**Aquaman decapitates Clayface**''\ |
| 181 | '''[[LosingYourHead Clayface's head:]]''' ...Not my worst review. |
| 182 | *** Speaking of Aquaman, he is one too, to the degree that Clayface's impersonation of him is entirely believable. |
| 183 | * ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'': |
| 184 | ** Major Glory: "So, alien, you think you can set foot on American soil without a green card, do you? Well, I am America, mister! Do you think you can contend with the speed of America, the strength of America, the Constitution of... America?” |
| 185 | ** '''"DEE DEE! GET OUT OF MY LA-BOR-A-TOR-Y!!''' |
| 186 | ** You are '''styoopid!''' You are '''styoopid!''' And don't forget, YOU ARE '''''STYOOPID!!''''' (and this wasn't even the regular voice act[[CrossDressingVoices ress]]!) |
| 187 | ** '''"AT LAST! MY GRRRREATEST CREATION IS COM-PLEEEE-TED!" ''' *holds up a plate of cookies* |
| 188 | ** "'''OOOOOOHH!''' [[WhatDoesThisButtonDo What does]] '''[[CatchPhrase this]]''' [[WhatDoesThisButtonDo button do???]]" |
| 189 | * ''WesternAnimation/DonkeyKongCountry'': |
| 190 | ** Bluster Kong needs to be listed simply for this one scene from the episode "Hunka Hunka Burnin' Bluster": |
| 191 | --->''(while combing his hair)'' "There, how could Candy possibly resist me now? ''(looks at his comb)'' What's this?! ''Hair?! '''My hair?!? AAAAHHHH!!!''' My hair's falling out!'' Don't panic, don't panic. I've got just the tonic. 'For beautiful manageable hair'. 'For full-bodied hair'. 'For silky hair'. ''WHAT ABOUT FALLING OUT HAIR!?'' Keep calm, I'll... I'll combine them all together!" |
| 192 | --->''(Later...)'' |
| 193 | --->"Ugh, what a smell. I can't use this. So what if I've lost a bit of hair? ''(looks at his comb again)'' '''''AAAHH!!''' More hair!'' I'm shedding!!" |
| 194 | ** The BigBad King K. Rool. Find a line of his that isn't hammy to some extent. |
| 195 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1H6Mu8F8iRI Judy]] and Roger from ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}''. |
| 196 | * Dan Backslide (coward-bully-cad-and-thief) from ''WesternAnimation/TheDoverBoys'' Creator/ChuckJones short. "''A runabout!'' '''I'LL STEAL IT! NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW!'''" |
| 197 | * ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'': |
| 198 | ** Magica [=DeSpell=] often gets so carried away. |
| 199 | ** The singer for the Dutch version opening hams up the singing to a new cholesterol level. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6U9nhv4D56o Hear it for yourself.]] |
| 200 | ** We also have '''''EL CAPITAN'''''. |
| 201 | ** Behold the shadowy ham that is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9IzgZkax1w The Phantom Blot]]. Even hammier in his appearance in ''[=DuckTales=]''. |
| 202 | --->'''The Phantom Blot: [[EvilLaugh MUHUHUHUHAHAHAHAHA!]] I'M MEAN!''' |
| 203 | ** And then there was the time he became '''''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqHHBLiMYrE&feature=related "THE PHANTOM RAIIIINBOOOOOOW!"]]''''' |
| 204 | * ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'': [[EvilIsHammy FLINTHEART GLOMGOLD]]! Most of his dialogue is him raising his voice. This is especially prominent in his employee training video. |
| 205 | * ''WesternAnimation/DudleyDoRight'' has the original old-timey, [[ChainedToARailway tie-a-babe-to-the-railroad-tracks]], foreclose-on-a-sobbing-widow, top-hatted, [[EvilLaugh cackling]] bad guy, ''[[DastardlyWhiplash Snidely Whiplash]].'' |
| 206 | * [[WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents While we're on the topic of Butch Hartman]], why is [[EvilTeacher Denzel Q Crocker]] such a huge ham? There's only one logical explanation... '''[[{{Catchphrase}} FAIRY GOD PARENTS!]]''' |
| 207 | ** Mark Chang. |
| 208 | ---> '''''MANURE! THAT'S LIKE, THE RAREST OF ALL DELICACIES ON MY PLANET! WHY ARE YOU WASTING SUCH A DELICIOUS TREAT ON SUCH HIDEOUS PETUNIAS?!?!?!?!''''' |
| 209 | ---> '''''AAAHH!! THE CUTENESS!!! IT BURNS!!!''''' |
| 210 | ---> I will suck out your brains... through ''these'' '''''BENDY STRAWS!''''' |
| 211 | ** Dr. Rip Studwell, as voiced by Mr Hartman himself. |
| 212 | ** In the episode with the Turnbaums, the Turner parents' evil doppelgangers, Pa Turnbaum is physically incapable of ''not'' hamming it up whenever he appears. Deconstructed when he first appears, as his hammy self-introduction [[DidntThinkThisThrough promptly attracts the attention of the police]]. |
| 213 | ---> '''Ma Turnbaum''': I ''told'' you not to shout our names to the sky like that! |
| 214 | *** By far his hammiest line, however, was this gem: |
| 215 | ---> '''Pa Turnbaum''': ''You'll '''never''' stop us, '''the actual''' Turnbaums, '''FROM ESCAPING OVER THE FALLS IN THIS RUBBER RAAAAAAFT!''''' |
| 216 | ----> [''the pair hop into said raft and begin to float away downstream''] |
| 217 | ----> '''Pa Turnbaum''': --'''WHICH WE ''STOLE!''''' |
| 218 | ** And then, of course, there is [[TheAhnold Jorgen von Strangle]]. Like [[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger the man he's a caricature of]], at any given time he's about five seconds away from going full ham. |
| 219 | ---> "''That was '''another''' test, '''AND YOU FAILED!!!''''' |
| 220 | ** Timmy himself is this quite a bit, ''especially'' when he turns evil in the episode "Nega-Timmy". |
| 221 | * ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'': |
| 222 | ** Joe [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0mHAJ5c080 has his moments]]. |
| 223 | ---> "'''''BRING IT ON!'''''" |
| 224 | ---> "The sexual thrill! '''''THE SEXUAL THRILL!'''''" |
| 225 | ---> "[[SarcasmMode Oh, yeah! It's perfect for all the happy, active gingerbread men.]] ''(bites one in half)'' Except for the one with [[SuddenlyShouting NO LEGS!]] Look at the parents telling their kids not to stare. ''(mockingly)'' "How does his pee-pee work, Mommy?" Well, I've got news for you, Becky: '''''NOT SO WELL!!!'''''" |
| 226 | ** Peter himself. |
| 227 | ---> "'''I WANNA KNOW WHOSE CUP THIS IS!'''" |
| 228 | ---> "MMMBUTT SCRATCHER!!" |
| 229 | ---> "'''''Film/{{ROAD HOUSE|1989}}.'''''" |
| 230 | ** As well as Stewie. |
| 231 | ---> "HA! I GOT YOUR HAT! TAKE THAT, HATLESS! NOW GO BACK TO THE QUAD AND RESUME YOUR HACKEY-SACK TOURNEY! I'M NOT GONNA LIE DOWN FOR SOME FRAT BOY BASTARD WITH HIS DAMN TEVA SANDALS AND HIS SKOAL BANDITS AND HIS ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH LONG SLEEVE, OPEN STITCH, CREW NECK HENLEY SMOKING HIS STICKY BUDS OUT OF A SODA CAN WHILE WATCHING HIS FAVORITE DOWNLOADED [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons SIMPSONS]] EPISODES EVERY NIGHT! YES, WE ALL LOVE "MR. PLOW!" OH, YOU'VE GOT THE SONG MEMORIZED, DO YOU? SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE! THAT IS ''EXACTLY'' THE KIND OF IDIOT YOU'D SEE AT TACO BELL AT 1:00 IN THE MORNING! THE GUY WHO JUST WHIFFED HIS WAY DOWN THE BAR SKANK LADDER!" |
| 232 | ** Brian when he [[RageBreakingPoint lost his patience]] [[ScreamingPlaneBaby with a baby]] one time. |
| 233 | ---> "WAAAHHH! WAAAHHH! YOU LIKE THAT, HUH?! YOU LIKE THAT?! WAAAAHHHH! YOU'LL JUST TUNE THIS OUT, DON'TCHA?! WAAAHH! WELL, TUNE '''''THIS''''' OUT! WAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!" |
| 234 | ** [[WorldOfHam Out of everyone in general,]] taking the ham is '''''[[KnightOfCerebus Jeff Fecalman,]]''''' who [[ExaggeratedTrope cranks it up]] into '''''overdrive.''''' |
| 235 | ** And we now go live to [[TokenMinority Ollie]] [[NoIndoorVoice Williams]] for our list of hams. Ollie? |
| 236 | ---> "'''[[TerseTalker I'M IN IT!]]'''" |
| 237 | * ''WesternAnimation/FilmationsGhostbusters'' is, in many people's opinion, a fairly tedious animated series. However, it does have the magnificently malevolent Prime Evil as portrayed by Alan Oppenheimer. Prime Evil alone makes it well worth the price of admission. |
| 238 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Fillmore}}'': Principal Folsom has many talents, but the ability to control her volume when agitated is not one of them. |
| 239 | -->"'''RAYFORD!''' A metaphor!" |
| 240 | * [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Bloo]] from ''WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends''. Due to having [[NoIndoorVoice absolutely no volume control most of the time]], he has his hammy moments. |
| 241 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Freakazoid}}''. Considering both Freakazoid and [[WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian Chuckles the Silly Piggy]], can we just say that ''any'' character voiced by Paul Rugg falls under this? |
| 242 | ** Mr. Director from ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' and Nostradamus from ''WesternAnimation/{{Histeria}}'' also fall under this, as does Rugg's live-action character of Manny the Uncanny from Creator/{{Disney}}'s Creator/{{One Saturday Morning|AndABCKids}}. |
| 243 | ** Mr. Guitierrez definitely counts. (Helps it's Creator/RicardoMontalban basically doing an animated Khan, present in the Largeham/StarTrek folder) If you need proof, just remember that "HE IS NOT A WEENIE! YOOOOOOU ARE THE WEENIE!!!" |
| 244 | ** Let us not forget [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2fBSLkBlvQ Dr. Mystico]], served up to us by Creator/TimCurry. |
| 245 | --->They called me ''mad!'' '''Insane!''' '''''WENDELL!''''' |
| 246 | * The universe of ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' is largely a WorldOfHam. Some of the larger pork-products include: |
| 247 | ** [[GeneralRipper Zapp Brannigan]]. In fact, the character was originally pitched as "What if Creator/WilliamShatner were the captain of [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries the Enterprise]] instead of Kirk?" |
| 248 | ---> "My friends, you can take away a man's rank and title, but you can never take away his integrity or his honor. Plus it was mainly Kif's fault." |
| 249 | ** [[BadBadActing Calculon]], with his [[DealWithTheDevil literally "unholy...]] acting... ''TALENT!!''" |
| 250 | ---> "I am filled with sorrow! Anger! Fear! Every emotion an actor can display!" |
| 251 | ---> "[[BigNo NOOOOOOOO!!! Enn-oh-oh-oh!!!!!]]" |
| 252 | ---> '''Bender:''' Now that's acting! Calculon really [[Creator/WilliamShatner Shatner'd]] the hell out of that scene. |
| 253 | ** All of the Omicron Persei VIII aliens, especially '''''LRRR, RULER OF THE PLANET OMICRON PERSEI 8!!!''''' and his wife Ndnd. (Would you like to buy a vowel?) |
| 254 | ---> "We will raise the temperature of your planet by ''one million degrees a day'', [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill for five days."]]\ |
| 255 | "This concept of "wuv" ''confuses'' and '''''infuriates us!!"''''' |
| 256 | *** Oddly, Lrrr and Ndnd's son Jrrr (Yes, he's essentially named Junior without being named literally Lrrr Junior) somehow is quite unhammy, despite his parents. |
| 257 | ** And, of course, alien menace/newscaster Morbo. |
| 258 | ---> ''"Windmills do not work that way!'' '''Good night!"'''\ |
| 259 | "Hello, little man... ''I will destroy you!"'' |
| 260 | ** Cryogenics recovery worker Terry greets newcomers to this WorldOfHam with gusto: |
| 261 | --> ''"Welcome,'' to the '''world''' of ''tomorrow!"''\ |
| 262 | ** Professor Farnsworth, when awake: |
| 263 | ---> "Correct! This box contains ''our own universe!!"'' |
| 264 | ** Zoidberg's uncle Harold Zoid hilariously {{lampshade|Hanging}}s it in the movie ''Beast With A Billion Backs'': |
| 265 | ---> "I [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall got a part in a fancy DVD-movie!]] It's only one line but I'm gonna ham it up like you wouldn't believe!" |
| 266 | ** Bender, [[EvilIsHammy of course]]: |
| 267 | ---> "The [[NephariousPharaoh cruelty of the old Pharoah]] is no more! [[MeetTheNewBoss Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land!!!]]" |
| 268 | ** From "Mars University", [[DeanBitterman Dean Vernon]]. |
| 269 | ---> "RO-BOT HOOOOOOOUUUUUUUSE!" |
| 270 | ** [[TheHedonist Hedonism-bot]] has only two defining characteristics: hamminess is one, and, well, [[MeaningfulName his name kind of gives away the other one]]. |
| 271 | ---> "Let us frolic and cavort like the Greeks of old! ''...You'' know the ones I mean..." |
| 272 | ** Fry has apparently spent so much time around these large hams that he can no longer take an interest in anything, even the destruction of the universe, unless it is communicated to him in a hammy fashion. In ''Into The Wild Green Yonder'', he instructs Number 9 Guy in basic ham oration: |
| 273 | --->'''Nine:''' So dig this, Fry. Our commune has been monitoring the universe's life energy for, like, a really long time, and we're [[Literature/StrangerInAStrangeLand grok]][[ShoutOut king]] some super weird junk.\ |
| 274 | '''Fry:''' Um, I don't mean to be rude, but it's kind of hard to take you seriously when you say junk like "grok" and "junk."\ |
| 275 | '''Nine:''' What about "commune"?\ |
| 276 | '''Fry:''' ''Especially'' "commune." Come on, it's the fate of the universe, puff it up a little. Like you could say your ancient order is sensing deep upheaval in the cosmic life energy field.\ |
| 277 | [Everybody murmurs.]\ |
| 278 | '''Nine:''' Okay. I'll try. So, like, a really, really long time ago... [''Fry motions "longer" with his hands''] Eons ago? [''Fry nods, approvingly''] ''EONS'' ago...! |
| 279 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'': |
| 280 | ** [[MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate Anton Sevarius]]. Not only is he voiced by the delicious Creator/TimCurry, but in his first episode he spent it all ''play-acting a stereotypical MadScientist!!'' (In later appearances, he's slightly more subdued. Slightly.) |
| 281 | --->'''Anton Sevarius:''' NO! That's my '''CREATION!''' |
| 282 | ** Oberon, ruler of the Third Race and first-class ham, additionally hamming it up with his tendency to refer to himself in the third person. |
| 283 | --->'''Oberon:''' Oberon does not compromise. Oberon COMMANDS! |
| 284 | ** Also to a lesser extent, Matt Frewer as Jackal. Come to think of it, Matt Frewer is a ham overall. [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk So... says... the LEADER!]] |
| 285 | ** Puck, to a lesser degree than his Lord Oberon, though he's still capable of hamming things up if necessary. |
| 286 | --->"'''Don't interrupt!''' I'm on a ''roll!''" |
| 287 | ** And Thailog, who actively cultivates an EvilLaugh and genuinely revels in his villainy, though he can be dangerously understated when he ''really'' wants to be scary. |
| 288 | ** The Archmage is also a pretty melodramatic guy. |
| 289 | ** Xanatos occasionally forays into LargeHam territory, though he always manages to lampshade them. Which makes the moments hammier, since he's obviously playing it up for the sheer joy of it. |
| 290 | ** Goliath has his hammy moments as well. |
| 291 | --->"I've been denied everything...even my '''REVENGE!'''" |
| 292 | * ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeARealAmericanHero'' generally chews the scenery, but a few honorable mentions: |
| 293 | ** Cobra Commander, who does this on an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thbICk05yPk almost episodic basis]]. Even in the DarkerAndEdgier movie, ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeResolute'', he still couldn't get away from screaming his head off. Fan favorites are '''COBRAAAAAA''' and '''COBRA RETREEEAAAT'''. |
| 294 | ** Sgt. Slaughter. The guy's a (now) retired wrestler[[note]]He was still active at the time he did the show.[[/note]], considered awesome in an organization populated by [[BadassNormal Badass Normals]], pulls double-duty as DrillSergeantNasty, and yells all his lines like [[Wrestling/SgtSlaughter the voice]] [[TheDanza actor]] was attempting to bully the microphone into submission. |
| 295 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUw8cN6R8o0 Serpentor.]] |
| 296 | ** The Headman from the two-part Creator/DiCEntertainment continuation episode "The Greatest Evil". Every line of dialogue he has is rather hammy. |
| 297 | * ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'': |
| 298 | ** You take a {{Cloudcuckoolander}}, [[GenkiGirl feed her a bag of sugar]], give her a massive collection of home-made sweaters and [[CuteButCacophonic a voice that seldom]] [[NoIndoorVoice goes below 75 decibels]], and you've got Mabel Pines. |
| 299 | ** Even Mabel pales in comparison to [[BigBad Bill]] [[EldritchAbomination Cipher]]. |
| 300 | --->'''Bill Cipher:''' [[VoiceOfTheLegion ALL RIGHT, LISTEN UP YOU ONE-LIFESPAN THREE-DIMENSIONAL FIVE-SENSE SKIN PUPPETS!!!!]] For one TRILLION years I've been TRAPPED in my own decaying dimension, WAITING for a new universe to CALL MY OWN! The name's Bill, BUT YOU CAN CALL ME YOUR NEW LORD AND MASTER FOR ALL OF ETERNITY!!!! |
| 301 | ** Old Man [=McGucket=], the resident [[CrazyHomelessPeople Crazy Homeless]] MadScientist. |
| 302 | ---> '''Old Man [=McGucket=]:''' No! This is a jig of GRAVE DAAAANGER! |
| 303 | ** Rumble [=McSkirmish=] is a [[TestosteronePoisoning Testosterone-Poisoned]] fighting game character brought to life. As a nod to his inspirations, he shouts most of his lines. He is also fond of [[CallingYourAttacks Calling His Attacks]] as loud as he possibly can. |
| 304 | --->'''Rumble:''' YOU KILLED MY FATHER! AGAIN! |
| 305 | ** And then there's Gideon, the aggressively Southern, EnfanteTerrible, given to making dramatic proclamations. |
| 306 | ---> '''Gideon:''' STANFORD PINES, I REBUKE THEE! YEA, I REBUKE THEE...THE ENTIRE PINES FAMILY HAS INVOKED MY FURY! YOU WILL ALL PAY RECOMPENSE FOR YOUR TRANSGRESSONS! |
| 307 | * Mentok the Mindtaker on ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw'', who constantly plays up his own powers when he's not being a DeadpanSnarker. Say it with me now... Ooooweeee ooweeeeeeee! |
| 308 | * The muses from ''WesternAnimation/HerculesTheAnimatedSeries'' get in on it as well. "Hercules was so HOT, steam looked cool!" |
| 309 | * If anyone else is around, Helga of ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' is an aloof DeadpanSnarker. But once she's alone (or at least thinks she is), Helga G. Pataki unleashes a level of ham that would be impressive for a world-traveling adult, let alone a middle-school girl. Whether it be interfering with people's lives with a vaudevillian flair stolen straight from [[WesternAnimation/DudleyDoRight Snidely Whiplash]], mooning over Arnold with an intensity that makes fireworks seem subdued, or just wrestling with her own mental issues, Helga produces enough ham that all of P.S. 118 could never hope to consume it all. |
| 310 | ** She gets it from her Dad- Big Bob is certainly hammy, especially when ranting about beepers, and Olga can ''really'' ham when she's [[{{Wangst}} Wangsting]]. |
| 311 | *** There's Harold, too. "Madame Fortress Mommy!" |
| 312 | * The ''WesternAnimation/{{Histeria}}'' episode with the Wright Brothers has Froggo asking them for a bag of marshmallows and a crate of leeches, and then later for a tambourine and a vat of spam; both times they tell him no. His responses: "NO?! NO?! ''OH NOO!'' NO, IT CAN'T BE!! AAAHHHHH!!!!" and "NO! ''NO!'' '''''[[BigNo NOOOOO!!]]''''' THIS IS A '''DISASTER!!!'''" |
| 313 | * Coach [=McGuirk=] from ''WesternAnimation/HomeMovies'', especially in the episode where he's deprived of sleep. |
| 314 | ** '''DVD PLAYER!''' |
| 315 | * Creator/FrankWelker did it again with ''WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget'''s Dr. Claw, which is impressive given the raspy deep voice he had. "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lh4lig9nocg&feature=related GAAAAAAAAAAAADGET!]]" |
| 316 | ** "I'll GET YOU GADGET! I'LL GET YOUUUUUUUUU!" |
| 317 | * ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'': "'''WHO?! WHO DID THIS?! WHO DARES TO SOIL MY NORMAL BOY HEAD WITH THIS... PORK COW?!?!'''" |
| 318 | ** Zim is the ''king'' of this trope. Pretty much ''every single line he says'' has him screaming something. |
| 319 | ** "You lie! '''YOU LIIIIIIE!!!'''" |
| 320 | *** GIR. "I WAS THE TURKEY ALL ALOOOONG!!" |
| 321 | *** Interestingly enough, when Dib breaks into his house during the Halloween special, he doesn't start yelling until after Dib ignores pretty much everything he says. |
| 322 | --> '''Zim:''' Help?! You?! |
| 323 | --> '''Dib:''' You're the only one with the technology-- |
| 324 | --> '''Zim:''' HELP?!?! YOU?!?! Come to me? Your greatest, most amazing ''enemy?'' Your future slave-master and you ask for HELP?!? |
| 325 | ** Ham seems to be a class feature of Irkens, whether it's the Almighty Tallest ("Soon, all the races of the universe will serve... the IRKEN EMPIRE!"), Tak ("'''I''' should have been an Invader! '''I''' should have been part of the Great Assigning! I shouldn't '''have''' to be stealing '''this''' planet from '''you'''!"), or even little Skoodge ("So that no Irken boot has to come into contact with any unsavoury alien filth! '''HOO-AH'''!") |
| 326 | ** Dib gets in on this too when he's feeling heroic. |
| 327 | --->"Mortal enemies, teaming up for THE GREATER GOOD!" |
| 328 | ** [[Creator/RLeeErmey "THE HIDEOUS FORTRESS OF SCREAMING PAIN!!"]] |
| 329 | ** The Shadow Hog. The name alone is hammy. |
| 330 | --> '''I AM THE SHADOW HOG!''' WHAT IS IT YOU WANT FROM ME, CHILD WHO CONJURED ME, AND CHILD WHO WAS '''BLESSED''' WITH '''PIG''' SENSES? |
| 331 | ** Ms. Bitters does this every once in a while. |
| 332 | --> "NNOOOTHINGG!!" |
| 333 | ** Just about ''[[PigeonholedVoiceActor any]]'' character played by Creator/RichardStevenHorvitz is going to be a ham in some fashion or another. See: The hammily demented Daggett Beaver of ''WesternAnimation/TheAngryBeavers'', the hammily moronic Billy of ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'', and the hammily… well, I don't know what to call him--Rodney in ''WesternAnimation/SquirrelBoy.'' Richard actually pointed this out several times, saying that Zim is the hardest role he's ever done, because even his NORMAL speaking voice is shouting. |
| 334 | ** Professor Membrane, as well as quite a few other Rodger Bumpass roles. |
| 335 | ---> "There ARE no ''curses,'' son! *contorts* [[MadScientist MUHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!]]" |
| 336 | * In ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'', Hakfu is known for screaming all of his attacks and being overly dramatic. |
| 337 | -->'''Hakfu:''' *breaks tree in half* "He[[note]]the Minikhan Oni Mask[[/note]] will fit snugly... " *points to face* "UPON MY '''FACE'''! *flys at Jackie* "FLYING SQUIRREL CRACKS ACORN!"\ |
| 338 | I'll teach you to take THINGS THAT DON'T BELONG TO YOU, CHAN! |
| 339 | * Lucius Heinous VII from ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'' compensates for his diminutive size with scenery chewing only a wacky cartoon version of {{Satan}} voiced by Sean Cullen is capable of. |
| 340 | -->"''You are lying to me, eyes!'' '''PUPILS!''' '''''YOU BETRAY MEEE!!!!'''''" |
| 341 | * Most cartoon knocks off of Elvis Presley in cartoons such as ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo''. |
| 342 | ** In one episode called "Bearly Enough Time", Johnny meets a talking, equally hammy {{bear|sAreBadNews}} who claims himself to be "'''Chronos, ''master of all TIME!!'''''" |
| 343 | * WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest is [[WorldOfHam a buffet of ham]], especially Johnny, Dukey (when he's not being a DeadpanSnarker) and pretty much all the villains in the show. |
| 344 | * Comicbook/GreenArrow in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague''. Particularly in the episode where he attacked a submarine while [[ThemeMusicPowerUp singing his own theme music]]. |
| 345 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'': Kaeloo can shift between this and DissonantSerenity. |
| 346 | * ''WesternAnimation/KidVsKat'': Old Lady Munson became this due to her [[HairTriggerTemper very grouchy behavior]] especially to [[ButtMonkey Coop]] and Burt who she always [[{{Scapegoat}} blames Coop]] for all things [[KarmaHoudini Kat]] did, complete with screaming out '''[[SayMyName BURTONBURGER!!!]]''' |
| 347 | * ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPandaLegendsOfAwesomeness'': Po Ping is very much this. Also, the show's starting to fill up with villain hams. Heck, even the names of places tend to be a little hammy. |
| 348 | * ''WesternAnimation/LetsGoLuna'': Señor Fabuloso always speaks loudly and dramatically, fitting for his occupation as a ringmaster. |
| 349 | * ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop2012'' features Zoe Trent being as hammy as possible and even in a happy mood. She's also a walking funny moment most of the time. |
| 350 | * ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'': |
| 351 | ** WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck - notably (but by no means limited to) his WesternAnimation/{{Duck Dodgers|in the TwentyFourthAndAHalf Century}}[[note]]'''IN THE TWENTY-FOURTH AND A HALF CENTURY!!!'''[[/note]] character. |
| 352 | --->"Mine, mine, mine, mine!"\ |
| 353 | Aha! I'm going to be the hero of this picture!"\ |
| 354 | "Wait! I haven't tried toadying, kowtowing and butt-kissing yet! I'm still begging here!"\ |
| 355 | "Your duck? Bah! I belong to the world."\ |
| 356 | "Hey, come here! Come here! Give me a close-up. A close-up! (circle irises around him) This is a close-up?!? A CLOSE-UP, YA JERK!! A CLOSE-UP!!!"\ |
| 357 | "All right. Enough is enough. This is the final, the - the very, very last straw! Who's responsible for this? This... I demand that you show yourself! Who are you? Huh?!" |
| 358 | ** And his hammiest line of all. |
| 359 | ---> (Coming out of Porky's refrigerator dressed in winter gear) "What a trip! What a trip! Blizzards all the way! Snow 20 feet deep! But we had to get that serum through! It was mush, mush, mush all night! (Grabbing the dog and pushing him like a sled dog) Come on, '''mush, mush, mush, mush, mush!''' ''Suddenly, the glacier cracks! There's a roar! Tons of ice! No escape! [screams loudly]'' [[MoodWhiplash How have things been with you?]]" |
| 360 | ** Also in ''Film/SpaceJam'': "Your shorts? From cawwwwwwwwlllllllllege-ah?" |
| 361 | ** WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam. Among other things, he's the self-proclaimed "Fastest gun north, south, east '''AAAAAAAND''' west of the Pecos!" and [[NoIndoorVoice rarely speaks in anything below a full-bodied shout]]. |
| 362 | --->'''Bugs Bunny:''' [[UsefulNotes/TheodoreRoosevelt I speak softly, but I carry a BIIIIG stick!]]\ |
| 363 | '''Sam:''' Oh, yeah?! Well, I '''SPEAK ''LOOOOOOOOUD''''', and I carry '''A ''BIIIIIIIGGER'' STICK!''' AND I USE IT, TOO! |
| 364 | ** Also WesternAnimation/FoghornLeghorn, the boisterous--I say, boisterous, motor-mouthed rooster.[[note]]Motor-mouthed, that is.[[/note]] |
| 365 | ** In the cartoons where he has a voice, WesternAnimation/{{Wile E Coyote|and the Roadrunner}}.... '''SUUUUUPERRRRR GEEEEEEENIUSSSSSSSS!''' |
| 366 | * ''WesternAnimation/MaggieAndTheFerociousBeast'' has [[PunnyName Hamilton Hocks]]. He is this figuratively, though perhaps not so much literally, at least in terms of the "large" part. One of his songs is even called "Hamilton the Ham." |
| 367 | * In ''WesternAnimation/TheMask'': The Mask unlike his unmasked self can go from calm to large ham at a unpredictable rate such as when he gets a cold that is killing him and he goes over the top with it which Pretorius asks if he's dead or is it symptom number 8 which is over dramatic. |
| 368 | --> '''Mask''': Thank you Milo. Good Boy. But your master's beyond that kind of help now. (he drops to the floor with his tongue sticking out) |
| 369 | --> '''Pretorius''': Dead or symptom number 8? Over-acting. |
| 370 | * ''WesternAnimation/MegasXLR'': The REGIS Mark V [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37lf4n6lxX0 mocks your pitiful attempt at ham. It will destroy all.]] |
| 371 | * Do you know what ''WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}}''[='=]s Doctor Rockzo the Rock n Roll Clown does? '''COCAINE!!!!''' |
| 372 | ** [[HarshVocals Nathan]] [[MundaneMadeAwesome Explosion]] seems to count as well. |
| 373 | * Skull Master from ''WesternAnimation/MightyMax''. Tim Curry's favorite food is ham, such as when he returns to the surface. |
| 374 | -->The Sun? THE SUN. to feel the sun ({{beat}}) again, to feel the wind, To be... IN THE DAY WORLD, to be... FREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! |
| 375 | * ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'': |
| 376 | ** [[TheLancer Chat Noir]] acts incredibly flamboyant and bombastic, and frequently makes bad (often cat-related) puns. He's massively overcompensating for his repressed civilian alter ego, LonelyRichKid Adrien Agreste. |
| 377 | ** [[TheHero Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug]] is no slouch in this department, either, although her bursts of hamminess are more common as Marinette than as Ladybug. |
| 378 | ** [[BigBad Hawk Moth]] is [[EvilIsHammy very over-the-top]] in his villainous monologues. [[spoiler:He's also Adrien's father, Gabriel Agreste, and TheStoic in his civilian identity. Guess ItRunsInTheFamily.]] |
| 379 | ** DefrostingIceQueen Kagami Tsurugi is quite dramatic in her short tenure as Ryuko, for much the same reasons as Adrien[=/=]Chat. |
| 380 | * The Duke of Detroit in ''{{WesternAnimation/Motorcity}}'', to the point where he always needs to make entrances like he's a rock star (appropriate, as he's voiced by [[Music/TwistedSister Dee Snider]]). Texas is also this, when he's deluded that he's the leader of the group. And to a lesser extent, Abraham Kane. |
| 381 | * ''WesternAnimation/MrBeanTheAnimatedSeries'' has Mrs. Julia Wicket who she's a jerk mean old lady with cranky voice who always scolds Mr. Bean at a rising voice. She also shouts at the top of her lungs scaring the birds away. |
| 382 | * Most characters on ''WesternAnimation/MyGymPartnersAMonkey'' act like this, Jake Spidermonkey being the most obvious example. |
| 383 | * ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' may as well be called ''[[WorldOfHam My Little Porky: Friendship is Hammy]]'': |
| 384 | ** Next time you sit down and watch the show, remember to bring a plate, because chances are Creator/TabithaStGermain is gonna fill it with liberal amounts of ham. When Rarity turns on the histrionics, she turns on the ham as well. You ''will'' believe a pony can ham. That said, Rarity hams practically always. She just adjusts her ham between "normal" and "11". And then there is [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E13SimpleWays "Simple Ways"]]... by adopting an over-the-top version of Applejack's Southern accent for pretty much the whole third act, things went to Ludicrous Ham. |
| 385 | ** Next you have Photo Finish, FountainOfMemes extraordinaire, who hams up every scene she's in with... DA MAGICKS. |
| 386 | ** Ham seems to belong to fashion. Hoity Toity is about as hammy as Karl Lagerfeld, the fashion designer [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed he is based on]], isn't. |
| 387 | ** Princess Luna; being a massive ham was required out of royalty a thousand years ago, [[FishOutOfTemporalWater which she's retained after all this time]] (complete with FloweryElizabethanEnglish). '''[[NoIndoorVoice THIS IS THE TRADITIONAL ROYAL CANTERLOT WAY OF HAMMING IT UP!]]''' |
| 388 | ** The Great and Powerful Trixie (surprisingly not voiced by St. Germain this time, but by Kathleen Barr) is pretty much made of pork, appropriate for her role as a StageMagician and FakeUltimateHero. Then she returns two seasons later and is every bit as hammy as before, if not ''more so'', [[spoiler:due to the [[ArtifactOfDoom Alicorn Amulet]] causing her to go DrunkOnTheDarkSide]]. She's even a LargeHam when [[spoiler:she's apologizing for her behavior after making a HeelFaceTurn once the Amulet is removed.]] |
| 389 | ** [[TheOmnipotent Discord]], the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification supremely aptly-named]] {{vil|eVillainSaccharineShow}}lain of the Season 2 opener, is [[FauxAffablyEvil deliciously]], [[ForTheEvulz maliciously]] [[GodOfEvil mean]]. He's voiced by Creator/JohnDeLancie. His ham isn't reserved [[LaughablyEvil for his evilness]], [[BewareTheSillyOnes either]]. You can't spell "Discord" [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRxpZ7RKpHQ without "disco."]] |
| 390 | ** Pinkie Pie's [[GenkiGirl boundless energy]] combined with her [[CloudCuckoolander shaky grasp on reality]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YnQdBD2y64 lends her well to this trope.]] |
| 391 | ** Iron Will from "Putting Your Hoof Down." He's essentially [[Anime/DragonBallZ Hercule]], Wrestling/HulkHogan, and Creator/MrT rolled into the body of a minotaur. |
| 392 | ** Flim and Flam aren't too hammy when they just talk, but their [[VillainSong introduction is pure ham]]. Like Trixie, they are showponies. |
| 393 | ** From the season finale we have [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Queen]] [[EvilMatriarch Chrysalis]] (voiced by Kathleen Barr, like Trixie), who likes her [[EmotionEater love]] with a side of scenery. |
| 394 | ** [[Creator/DiscoveryFamily The Hub]]: where puppies and kittens play together, where friends drop by for a visit, and where rainbows '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOhLtol02Rg PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY!!!]]''' |
| 395 | ** Rainbow Dash in general tends to be quite bombastic, befitting her AwesomeEgo. |
| 396 | *** "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS7E7ParentalGlideance Parental Glideance]]" introduces Dash's parents, who are [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents (at least as far as their daughter is concerned)]] even hammier. |
| 397 | ** From [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E1MareInTheMoon much]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E2ElementsOfHarmony earlier]], [[MadGod Nightmare Moon]]... which should seem [[EvilIsHammy natural]] for her, being Princess Luna's SuperpoweredEvilSide. |
| 398 | ** Also at the very beginning of the series, we meet Steven Magnet, the sea serpent with the (half) BEEYOOOTIFUL MOOUSTAAACHE. |
| 399 | ** Fluttershy, of all ponies, gets her turn. "You're... going... to '''''LOVE MEEE'''''!!!!!" |
| 400 | ** In "Power Ponies", the Mane-iac is such a large ham that the other characters in the show are put to shame. She's engaged in an EvilLaugh for roughly 90% of her screentime. |
| 401 | ** Lord Tirek definitely qualifies: '''''"YOU HAVE SOMETHING THAT BELONGS TO ME!!!"''''' |
| 402 | ** Even Twilight Sparkle, in the first episode, no less: "All the ponies in this town are '''''KA-RAZY!"''''' |
| 403 | ** [[BlatantLies Averted]] by Starlight Glimmer (voiced by Kelly Sheridan), who first appeared in the fifth-season premi-'''''[[BigShutUp "QUIET!!!!!"]]''''' |
| 404 | ** The [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls Canterlot High campus]] isn't exactly kosher, either. The first film alone gives us Sunset Shimmer's OneWingedAngel form. |
| 405 | *** In a similar vein, Twilight Sparkle may not have been giving out ham like it's Christmas dinner in the past... '''[[SuperpoweredEvilSide BUT]] [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity SHE DOES]] [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsFriendshipGames NOW!!!]]''' |
| 406 | ** "Gauntlet of Fire" brings us Dragon Lord Torch. "''''AGREE WITH ME!''''" |
| 407 | *** ''Friendship is Magic'' likes its villains [[EvilIsHammy with a heavy helping of pork.]] |
| 408 | ** "NOW I TRULY AM '''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTheMovie2017 THE STORM KING]]!!''' AND THE ENTIRE WORLD WILL BOW TO MY '''BA BA BA ''BOOM'' BABY!!!'''" |
| 409 | * Rare non-verbal example: Harchi from ''WesternAnimation/OscarsOasis''. He frequently enjoys dancing, acting goofy and even flashes a series of over-the-top poses for scoring a single point in a game of tennis. |
| 410 | * Skipper from ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar''. Especially evident in the episode "In the Line of Doody." |
| 411 | -->'''Skipper:''' [[PunctuatedForEmphasis The Clock. Is. Ticking]].\ |
| 412 | '''Kowalski:''' Sooo... were those dramatic pauses really necessary then?\ |
| 413 | '''Skipper:''' ''[dramatic pause]'' Yes. |
| 414 | * ''WesternAnimation/PetAlien'': |
| 415 | ** Dinko can get very over-the-top and loud when he's deep in his schemes. |
| 416 | --->'''Dinko:''' NO! Tommy of Earth's life must be ''exciting''...! Something must be DONE! By MEEEEEEEEEEEEE! |
| 417 | ** [[SpoiledBrat Melba Manners]] can get pretty loud when angry or shocked, usually as a result of the aliens' antics. |
| 418 | --->'''Melba:''' Something's wrong... the sun is too high in the sky. THE EARTH IS SPIRALING OFF ITS AXIS! OR WORSE: I'VE OVERSLEPT! |
| 419 | * ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'': |
| 420 | ** Dr. Doofenshmirtz. "'''[[CatchPhrase CURSE YOU, PERRY THE PLATYPUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!]]'''" |
| 421 | ** He is later upstaged by THE REGURGITATOR! (DramaticThunder) |
| 422 | *** "You can start by making me a FRESH POT OF COFFEE!" (Dramatic Thunder) |
| 423 | ** Candace Flynn is always dramatically overreacting to everything. |
| 424 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocoyo}}'': When they put on a play in "Wackily Ever After", Pato plays "THE CRAZY DUCK!" and does ham it up quite well (which is impressive since he doesn't talk)...until he starts resenting playing the villain and everyone else gets bored and does their own thing. |
| 425 | * Bluto from ''WesternAnimation/{{Popeye}}''. Olive Oyl even sang about it in a Romeo and Juliet based musical in one of the cartoons. |
| 426 | -->"Get out scram/Clumsy ham!/You're a monkey/With a beard." |
| 427 | * The ''WesternAnimation/PoundPuppies2010'' episode "Prince and the Pupper" features Squirt meeting his deadringer, Cuddlesworth P. Wigglebottom. And he is outright ''deliciously'' hammy when he tries to fit in with the gang by using Squirt's teachings and manners. And Mr. Cuddlesworth brings back the ham for his second appearance in "The Ruff Ruff Bunch". |
| 428 | * ''Franchise/ThePowerpuffGirls'': |
| 429 | ** [[BigBad Mojo Jojo.]] '''[[{{Catchphrase}} CURSES!!!]]''' "You cannot defeat me, for I am undefeatable, I am '''Moooooojoooo''' Jojo! That is my name, Mojo Jojo. The name I am telling you, for it is mine." |
| 430 | ** Even Bubbles, the most [[TheCutie sweetest,]] [[TheIngenue gentle]] and [[ThePollyanna playful]] out of the three girls [[BewareTheNiceOnes can turn into one whenever someone pushes her WAY over the edge]], Most notably in "Bubblevicious": |
| 431 | --->'''''[[BringIt "WHO ELSE WANTS SOME?!?!"]]''''' |
| 432 | --->''(One day at school, Bubbles savagely tackles Blossom to the ground while playing "Duck, Duck, Goose".)'' |
| 433 | --->'''Bubbles:''' HA! I got you! You're ''out!'' Gone! Finished! You were beaten down, sister, by [[PunctuatedForEmphasis CUTE! LITTLE!]] '''''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis BUBBLES!!!!]]''''' |
| 434 | --->'''Blossom:''' ''(shocked beyond belief)'' [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan Sheesh, relax. It's just a game.]] |
| 435 | ** While we're on the subject, [[TheDreaded HIM]] fits this too, with his [[CampGay flamboyant mannerisms]]. |
| 436 | * Jet from ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'' is like this all the time. In just one example, here's some lyrics from what may be the most hammy song of all time, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyDXNRJtRK0 The Milky Way]]" |
| 437 | -->"'''WE'RE SWIRLING! WE'RE SPINNING! WE'RE SPIRALING NIGHT AND DAY! IN OUR GALAXY, THE MILKY WAY!''' Good evening, frieeeends!" |
| 438 | * In ''WesternAnimation/ReBoot'', Hexadecimal can go from subdued to large ham on a whim. Usually with a suitable change of face to go with it. |
| 439 | -->I don't know if I should talk to you, '''OR KILL YOU!!!''' |
| 440 | * Slagar the Cruel from the ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'' cartoon. Once again, voiced by Tim Curry. |
| 441 | ** Hell, just him introducing himself is hammy. "''I''...am Slagar...''the '''cruel!'''''" |
| 442 | ** The reveal? "I AM [[spoiler:'''''CHICKENHOOOOUUUUUUNNNNNDDDDD!'''''"]] |
| 443 | ** Asmodeus from the first series was also a ham of epic proportions despite about 90% of his dialogue consisting of his own name. |
| 444 | *** And the other 10%? "I...shall show you...'''''ETERNITYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!'''''" |
| 445 | * ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' has some Large Hams: Rigby, especially when he yells "STOP TALKING!!!"; Muscle Man, mainly when he go "WHOOO!!!" and whenever he squeals like a pig; [[HairTriggerTemper Benson]], chiefly when he's pissed off; The Sensei who let out three [[BigNo Big "NO!"]]'s in "Death Punchies." |
| 446 | ** Mordecai had his moments of hamminess and it's very unusual to hear JG Quintel raise his voice. |
| 447 | * Ren from ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT4YbO_1mvA What do you MEAN you don’t agree with me?! Do you know who you're DEALING WITH?!]] |
| 448 | * Tzekel-Kan of ''WesternAnimation/TheRoadToElDorado'' is also a rather large ham. |
| 449 | -->'''Tzekel-Kan:''' I KNOW what you are. and I KNOW what you are NOT. And you are NOT. '''GODS!!!''' |
| 450 | ** "Now EVERYONE will know the truth... of your... ''DIVINITY''!" |
| 451 | * Mok from ''WesternAnimation/RockAndRule'': |
| 452 | -->I don't offer you just anything - I OFFER YOU EVVVVVVVERYTHING! |
| 453 | -->I'm the biggest thing since World War III! |
| 454 | -->She can sing or SHE CAN SCREAM! (calmly) But she still pissed me off. |
| 455 | -->YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! I... AM... MOK! |
| 456 | * Ed Bighead from ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife''. Just his voice and the way he talks is extremely hammy. Most characters voiced by Creator/CharlieAdler fall under this, since [[WesternAnimation/AaahhRealMonsters Ickis]], [[WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken The Red Guy]] and [[WesternAnimation/BrandyAndMrWhiskers Mr. Whiskers]] are quite large hams themselves. |
| 457 | * Although she usually behaves like the very opposite of a ham, Misery from ''WesternAnimation/RubyGloom'' sometimes gets into this role with remarkable ease: |
| 458 | ** "I'm also the Queen of Disasters, by the way. And the Princess. And the Baroness. And the '''Countess!!''' And the '''''Vis''countess!! THE EMPRESS!!!"''' |
| 459 | ** "'''BEWARE!!!'''...of the cupboard!" |
| 460 | ** "As my great-great-great-aunt used to say whenever she got '''BLASTED''' out of a volcano... well, she mostly just screamed. But the point is: '''Try, try and try again!'''" |
| 461 | ** Misery seems to be some kind of inflatable ham, who can slip in and out of hammy acting at the drop of a hat. Many of her lines are half ham, half deadpan. |
| 462 | ** Scaredy Bat also has his moments of ham as well. |
| 463 | * Creator/MichaelBell's [[Characters/SupermanLexLuthor Lex Luthor]] in the ''WesternAnimation/RubySpearsSuperman'' cartoon. Probably because aside from his occupation as a CorruptCorporateExecutive, most of the inspiration for the character came from Creator/GeneHackman's portrayal in the films. |
| 464 | * Alvin from ''WesternAnimation/SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries''. "Don't EVER laugh at me!" |
| 465 | * ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'': |
| 466 | ** "Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the '''shapeshifting Master of Darkness''', unleashed an ''' ''unspeakable'' ham!''' But, a '''foolish''' samurai warrior, wielding a magic sword, stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow was struck, I '''[[NarmCharm TWORE]] open a portal in time, and flung him into the future''', where my ham is '''LAW!''' Now the fool seeks to return to the past, and '''un'''do the future that is '''AKU'''!!!" |
| 467 | ** His first line (asides from the opening sequence) is both hammy and awesome, despite it being said [[ColdHam in a rather quiet voice]]: "Once again, I am free to smite the world as I did in days long past." |
| 468 | ** "'''ENOUGH!''' Here's the truest tale of them all! There was an all-mighty, all-powerful wizard, and there was a pathetic little samurai! And the wizard '' '''DESTROYED HIM!!!'' THE END!'''" |
| 469 | ** "Once upon a time, there was a little girl with an adorable red cape and '''[[SelfInsertFic GREAT FLAAAMING EYEBROWS!]]'''" |
| 470 | ** "Samurai, samurai...[[WhyWontYouDie why won't you]] '''[[WhyWontYouDie DIEEEE!?!?]]'''" |
| 471 | ** The series has another large haggis- er, ham, in the Scotsman. [[BoisterousBruiser Big, bold, brash, and very strong]], his voice just doesn't seem to have a volume control[[note]]except when stealthing past Celtic demons, of course[[/note]]. In his first appearance, there's a point where Jack is surprised that an attack of his did not break the Scotsman's sword. The Scotsman's response? |
| 472 | ---> "'''MAGIC RUNES, laddie!'''" |
| 473 | ** Season 5 introduces Scaramouche, a bombastic MusicalAssassin and ''amazingly'' {{Camp}}y robot. |
| 474 | * ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'': Scooby and possibly Shaggy. |
| 475 | -->'''Velma:''' Oh, what a ham. |
| 476 | * Greetings and bienvenue, Tropers! [[YouMightRememberMeFrom You may remember]] [[WesternAnimation/TheSecretSaturdays V. V. Argost]] from his [[ShowWithinAShow delightful television program,]] ''[[ShowWithinAShow V. V. Argost's Weird World]]''... Or perhaps from the EvilPlan that's slowly but surely leading him to [[TakeOverTheWorld world domination]]. |
| 477 | * ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'': Sea Hawk, a boisterous, swashbuckling himbo who loves "ADVENTURE!", singing his own theme song (which he wrote himself) at the top of his lungs, and [[TheAllSolvingHammer setting his own ship on fire]]. He does ''have'' a softer, more subtle side, but he definitely pulls out all the stops, and then sets them on fire, when he gets the chance. |
| 478 | ** Mermista seems to be picking it up from him in Season 4, with "Mer-Mysteries" having her put on an overplayed display of murder mystery enthusiasm...ironically enough, given that her main characterisation before that is as a DeadpanSnarker with a line in FlatJoy. |
| 479 | --->'''Frosta:''' How are you doing that?\ |
| 480 | '''Mermista:''' I PRACTICE AT HOME!\ |
| 481 | '''Glimmer:''' [FacePalm] |
| 482 | ** Double Trouble could loosely be described as a theatre kid with shapeshifting powers and a taste for manipulation and mayhem. In disguise, they're generally fairly subtle and do their best to stay in-character, but when they're in their true form, expect them to be a bit over-the-top. |
| 483 | --->'''Double Trouble:''' TA-DA! Thank you, thank you. |
| 484 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': "Duffman! Oooooh Yeah!" |
| 485 | ** [[Funny/TheSimpsonsSeasons9To16 That brown spot needs a little [=H2O=]... OHH YEAH! [Moe plasters a sticker onto his face] DUFFMAN... CAN'T BREATHE! OOOOH NO!]] |
| 486 | ** [[DeanBitterman Superintendent Chalmers]] saying [[SayMyName "SKINNEEEEEEEEEEEER!"]] |
| 487 | ** Three words: "Agggh, Sideshow Bob!" |
| 488 | *** Krusty The Clown. HEY, HEY! |
| 489 | ** When he's allowed to speak at all, Sideshow Mel takes this to '''[[TrrrillingRrrs rrridiculous]]''' new '''heights!''' |
| 490 | ---> '''Sideshow Mel:''' I'll see to it that Mr. Burns suffers the ''infernal machinations'' of ''Hell's grim tyrant!'' |
| 491 | ** "Deep Space Homer", Race Banyon (played by Creator/HankAzaria) |
| 492 | ---> "They'll clog the instruments!", "Oh my God, the ants are shorting out our navigation systems!", etc. |
| 493 | ** Homer himself has many hammy moments. Once scene for example in "Bart Gets Famous", in which Homer immediately assumes the worst upon seeing a ''completely ordinary'' cardboard box with Bart's hat on it: |
| 494 | ---> '''"He's a box! My boy's a box! [[SkywardScream DAMN YOU! A BOOOOOOOOX!]]"''' |
| 495 | ** Also, Troy [=McClure=] (shows the most during the musical version of ''Franchise/PlanetOfTheApes'' he stars in.) |
| 496 | --->'''Troy:''' WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?\ |
| 497 | '''Dr. Zaius:''' I think you're crazy.\ |
| 498 | '''Troy:''' I WANT A SECOND OPINION!\ |
| 499 | '''Dr. Zaius:''' "You're also lazy. |
| 500 | ** MY EYES! THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING!! |
| 501 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs1981'': Characters, such as Hefty, Harmony, Tracker, Weepy, Peewit and Gargamel can be considered this. |
| 502 | * ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': Cartman, Randy Marsh, and Professor Chaos for starters. Mel Gibson takes this trope [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]]. |
| 503 | * WesternAnimation/SpaceGhost: Does Brak count as a LargeHam? |
| 504 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'' has ''Mysterrrrrio'', who, true-to-form, embodies and revels in this trope. [[spoiler:Only when he's "performing", though.]] |
| 505 | ** Doc Ock hams it up quite a bit. "'''[[MemeticMutation TREACHERYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!]]'''" |
| 506 | *** "'''ARACHNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID!!!'''" |
| 507 | ** Also Green Goblin (just like in the comics), though [[spoiler:this is likely deliberately done to avoid people connecting him with the always calm and controlled industrial businessman Norman Osborn]]. |
| 508 | *** And he's voiced by ''Creator/SteveBlum''. |
| 509 | ** Venom gets his fair share of hammy moments, and having the VoiceOfTheLegion ups his hamminess: "From now on, [[RoyalWe we're]] ''poison'' to Peter Parker ''and'' Spider-Man. ''[[{{Catchphrase}} WE'RE]] '''[[{{Catchphrase}} VENOM]]'''''!" |
| 510 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Spider Man The Animated Series}}'' from the early nineties, which has pretty much every character fall into hamminess at one point, ''especially'' the villains. |
| 511 | ** Special mention goes to Neil Ross as Norman Osborn / the Green Goblin, who has ''not a single line'' that isn't pure 100% pork. |
| 512 | ---> "NOOOOOOO! STOP STAAAAAARING AT MEEEEEEEE!"\ |
| 513 | "Ohhh... Peter Parker's here! Now the party can ''really'' begin!" |
| 514 | ** Also, the Scorpion. |
| 515 | --> "I told you NOT TO CALL ME NAMES!" |
| 516 | ** Venom? |
| 517 | --> Yeeeeeeesss... YEEEEEESSSS! We RECALL replicating... |
| 518 | --> Say... ALOHA!!! |
| 519 | ** For that matter, where's the love for Peter? Particularly in his black suit. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMk-HPBF6Mw "SHOCKEEEEEEER! YOU CAN'T ESCAPE ME! I'LL CHASE YOU TO THE ENDS OF THE EAAAAAAAAAARTH!"]] |
| 520 | * ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' The show in general is a WorldOfHam. |
| 521 | ** One word: '''[[MemeticMutation CHOCOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE!!!]]''' |
| 522 | ** [=SpongeBob=] himself is prone to this, either when overreacting or when [[BewareTheNiceOnes pushed over the edge.]] |
| 523 | *** "This looks like a job for '''''THE HALL MONITOR!'''''" |
| 524 | *** '''"LISTEN TO ME YOU CRUSTACEOUS CHEAPSKATE!''' Squidward's been living at '''my''' house, driving me ''crazy!'' '''AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HIRE HIM BACK ALL BECAUSE OF A ''STUPID DIME?!''''' |
| 525 | ** Patrick's no slouch in this department either, as his multitude of {{Memetic Mutation}}s prove: |
| 526 | ---> "[[BigNo NOOOO!!!]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis My name's! Not!]] [[BerserkButton RIIIIICK!!"]] |
| 527 | ** Of course, in the world of [=SpongeBob=], no hams are as large, [[LargeAndInCharge in charge]], or as loud, as King Neptune. Every line he has sounds inherently louder than all the other characters in ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobSquarePantsMovie'', even when he's not shouting/screaming. Standout examples include: "'''I'M ON TO YOU KRABS! You have stolen the royal crown, you cannot deny'''! For clever as you are you left one DAMNING piece of evidence at the SCENE... '''OF THE CRIME'''!!!" and the ever famous "MY CROWN IS IN THE FORBIDDEN ''SHELL CITY!!!?'' '''''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!'''''" |
| 528 | * Both Jabba the Hutt and his EvilUncle Ziro in ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars''. Ziro in particular seeing as his voice is based on Truman Capote. "One day Ah'll rule tha hutts!" |
| 529 | ** The {{Space Pirate|s}} Hondo Ohnaka. Anything he says is hammyness at its most ''glorious''. |
| 530 | *** "THIS EFFORT! IS NO LONGER! PROFITABLE!" |
| 531 | * ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'': |
| 532 | ** [[spoiler:Ruby]] has every emotion perpetually cranked up a few ticks past the average, leading to somewhat overdramatic tendencies. This resulted from Charlyne Yi's performance, which led to Rebecca Sugar [[http://stevencrewniverse.tumblr.com/post/124211063877/rebeccasugar-charlynes-reads-for-ruby-were-so changing the poses to compensate]] (link contains spoilers). |
| 533 | ** [[spoiler:Peridot]] is probably the all-time ham winner for the show, though. She's been compared to WesternAnimation/InvaderZim on more than one occasion. |
| 534 | --->'''[[spoiler:Peridot]]:''' ''(on winning)'' ''Victory is mine!'' Praise me! ''PRAISE ME!!'' |
| 535 | --->'''[[spoiler:Peridot]]:''' ''(on being locked in a car)'' How could this happen to ''me'', the ''great and lovable [[spoiler:Peridot]]?!'' I THOUGHT WE WERE FINALLY FRIENDS LIKE YOU WANTEEEEEED! |
| 536 | *** Her best ham to date would still be in the episode "Message Received", as she completely loses her temper in an argument with [[spoiler: Yellow Diamond]] about [[spoiler: the potential Earth has for Gemkind. Yellow Diamond let her emotions overrule reason, which is against everything Peridot was told to believe]]. |
| 537 | ---->'''[[spoiler: Yellow Diamond]]:''' What do YOU know about the Earth?! |
| 538 | ---->'''[[spoiler:Peridot]]:''' APPARENTLY MORE THAN YOU, YOU... '''CLOD'''! |
| 539 | ** Connie doesn't do it often, but she has some untapped talent in the field. |
| 540 | -->(chasing off seagulls) Run back to your masters! Tell them we're not afraid of your kind! |
| 541 | ** Jamie is also full of these. As an aspiring actor, he delivers one ham after the other. |
| 542 | ** Pearl has her moments too. She delivers many a ham speech, with some being genuinely epic, and others being a ''little'' too over the top. The best example of this is in "Back to the Moon", where she [[spoiler: tells Amethyst-as-Jasper in an overdramatic tone that she'll ''never talk'']]. This does not sit very well with the [[spoiler: Ruby squad]]. |
| 543 | --->'''Amethyst:''' Pearl, pipe down! That one [[spoiler:Ruby]] looks like she wants to throw you out in space! |
| 544 | ** Sardonyx, fusion of [[spoiler: Pearl and Garnet]] has the personality of a stage magician crossed with a talk show host and is prone to a loud NoblewomansLaugh. |
| 545 | * ''WesternAnimation/StickinAround'': |
| 546 | ** HEY, YOU GUYS!!! |
| 547 | ** Troper community: Hi Dill. |
| 548 | *** Although one may forever associate that phrase with ''Film/TheGoonies''. |
| 549 | ** "HOLY MACKERELLLLL!" |
| 550 | ** Stacey also had her hammy moments. "REAL MATURE, BRADLEEEEEY!" |
| 551 | ** Bradley gave as good as he got. |
| 552 | --->'''Bradley:''' ALIENS FROM...\ |
| 553 | '''Stacey:''' [[RunningGag Don't say it...]]\ |
| 554 | '''Bradley:''' UUUURANUUUS! |
| 555 | * Stork from ''WesternAnimation/StormHawks'', if you're searching for neurotic, TwitchyEye flavored ham. |
| 556 | * Can Creator/RichardNewman, as the voice of M. Bison in the animated ''WesternAnimation/StreetFighter'' series, really compete with Creator/RaulJulia's [[Film/StreetFighter live action portrayal]] of the character for sheer hamminess? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3ALwKeSEYs Yes! Yes!]] See the context of this deliciousness [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0j0lO7uQBo here]]. |
| 557 | * ''WesternAnimation/SuperMarioWorld'': |
| 558 | ** Luigi? '''THAT'S MAMA LUIGI TO YOU, MARIO!''' *wheeep* Perhaps {{justified|Trope}} as Luigi was telling Yoshi a bedtime story from his own point of view. |
| 559 | ** Or how about [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfSuperMarioBros3 King Koopa?]] '''Permit me to introduce you to RACCOOOOOOON KOOPA!''' |
| 560 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperHeroSquadShow'': While the Super Hero Squad live in a ''WorldOfHam'', [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Doctor Doom]] stands out. [[Characters/MarvelComicsThorOdinson Thor]], [[Characters/MarvelComicsLogan Wolverine]], and [[Characters/MarvelComicsSteveRogers Captain America]] are hammy but to a much lesser extent. [[Characters/MarvelComicsLoki Loki]] is another hammy villain. |
| 561 | * The Warden from ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' is essentially a sociopathic, {{reality warp|er}}ing Film/{{Willy Wonka|AndTheChocolateFactory}} taken [[ExaggeratedTrope Up to Eleven]]. |
| 562 | * Few of the character from ''WesternAnimation/TeamUmizoomi'' Would at least have a LargeHam moment. |
| 563 | ** '''CHEESY!''' |
| 564 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'': |
| 565 | ** Brother Blood has a flair for the dramatic and a tendency to go quite over the top when his plans are working (or when they're not and he's angry at someone because of it, for that matter). WordOfGod says this was done deliberately to make a contrast with the previous two seasons' BigBad, [[CreepyMonotone Slade]]. |
| 566 | ** [[HarmlessVillain NOTHING CAN DEFEAT THE BRILLIANCE OF DR. LIGHT!]] |
| 567 | ** "You'll never stop the Amazing Mumbo!" |
| 568 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003'': You dare to mention the One True Shredder? [[YouFool Fools!]] You will all pay! [[CatchPhrase None of you will leave this place alive!]] [[EvilLaugh MWAHA, AHAHAHAHAHAA!!!]][[note]][[LeitMotif HYYOOOO...]][[/note]] |
| 569 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'': "FANCY SPEAKING TO ME LIKE THAT! '''''ME''''' WHO HAS NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT!!" said Gordon, hammily. |
| 570 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThunderCats1985'': Mumm-Ra, '''THE EVER-LIVING!!!''' |
| 571 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheTick''. His conversational style is the verbal equivalent of MundaneMadeAwesome, even when he isn't monologuing about Good and Evil. In [[Series/TheTick2001 the live-action version]], he was played by scene connoisseur Creator/PatrickWarburton. |
| 572 | ** Most of the villains would qualify too, particularly the Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight. |
| 573 | ** El Seed. "No one could survive that much corn!" |
| 574 | * Megatron from ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}''. Although he varies between series, it's usually agreed that the ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' version has the greatest taste for pork, followed closely by G1. |
| 575 | ** [[TheStarscream Starscream]] enjoyed pork, but not enough to truly qualify as LargeHam - until ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated''. When Bumblebee blasts him with electricity while he was talking to Megatron, his reply is to grab Bumblebee, pull him to within an inch of his face, and shout, "''You interrupted '''MY SPEEEEEEEEEEECH!"''''' |
| 576 | ** The literally planet-sized ham that is Unicron! Especially when he's voiced by Creator/OrsonWelles himself. |
| 577 | *** While Unicron's good counterpart, Primus, isn't ''nearly'' as talkative, when he does speak up, it is with an appropriate tone of ''Biblical'' proportions. |
| 578 | ** ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' also has Inferno, a Predacon whose fire ant alt-mode is a bit too dominant, making him something of a BunnyEarsLawyer who call Megatron his "queen". He really, really likes to set things on fire while yelling "BURN! FOR THE ROYALTY!" |
| 579 | ** Jetfire in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersCyberverse'' is quite a bombastic fellow. This is a series where half Megatron's dialogue is delivered at a shout, Starscream ''[[SanitySlippage loses his mind]]'' and starts insisting that mindless eating machines are the incarnate souls of Cybertron's greatest, and Jetfire still comes across as a little excessive. |
| 580 | --->'''Jetfire:''' OF COURSE I'm alive! Sky-Byte will NEVER put out MY spark! |
| 581 | * Verminious Snaptrap, The Chameleon, Bird Brain, pretty much EVERY villain on ''WesternAnimation/TUFFPuppy''. The lead character Dudley also falls under this. |
| 582 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBros''' Doctor Orpheus: |
| 583 | -->Do not be too hasty in entering that room; I had ''Taco Bell for lunch!''\ |
| 584 | Fetch me my BLUE WINDBREAKER! |
| 585 | ** And the Monarch can ham it up with the best of them when he's in his full-on villain mode. |
| 586 | --->With every fiber of my being, I stab at thee! As long as blood flows through this heart, I will hunt you down! I will be the stuff of your children's ''nightmares''! *muffled* ...AND THEN, when nothing can be heard but your ''cries'' of agony, I will '''PULL THE CHAIN''' and let the ''beast devour you!'' Mark my words...I will have my revenge... '''DOCTOR VENTURE!!''' |
| 587 | ** IGNORE ME!!! |
| 588 | ** "...Yes, Dr. Venture, WIRED! Like a bomb strapped to a killer whale, set to go off the moment you try to free yourself!!" |
| 589 | ** Captain Sunshine: "[[BerserkButton WONDERBOOOOOY!!!]] [[HeroicBSOD WONDERBOOOOOOOY!!!]]" |
| 590 | ** Mr. Impossible has some of it as well, in early episodes. Being played by Creator/StephenColbert didn't hurt. He tends to be hammy in the MadScientist sense. |
| 591 | ** General Treister combines this with CloudCuckoolander and FourStarBadass in the best ways possible. |
| 592 | --> ''"Break up into groups, I want lists and solutions by the time I finish this jee-ooce box! Warning! I am thirsty! And it is fruit punch, and it is delicious!"'' |
| 593 | * ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder'': |
| 594 | ** This universe is definitely a WorldOfHam. Almost every character can qualify for this trope, but most notably, we have Wander, an [[WideEyedIdealist idealistic]], [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny hyperactive]] {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who [[NiceGuy travels the galaxy helping others]], and Lord Hater, an evil overlord who also happens to be an [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex arrogant (yet insecure)]] PsychopathicManChild that could give any Disney villain a run for their money. The two of them frequently engage in HamToHamCombat and it's GLORIOUS. |
| 595 | ** Season 2 brings us Lord Dominator, who is basically a [[ForTheEvulz sadistic]] [[PsychopathicManChild teenage girl thrust into the role of a supervillain]]. She constantly acts like she's having the time of her life, even (or rather especially) when she's destroying entire planets. |
| 596 | *** Speaking of villains, we also have Emperor Awesome, a campy frat boy whose parties destroy entire planets. |
| 597 | *** And of course, we have Dr. Screwball Jones. Picture [[Music/WeirdAlYankovic Weird Al]] playing a PG version of [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker The Joker]] who is [[PungeonMaster obsessed with puns]] and practical jokes. Then pit him in HamToHamCombat against Wander doing an impression of [[Series/Batman1966 1960s Batman]]. What do you get? One of the hammiest episodes in an already hammy show. |
| 598 | *** "EVIL SANDWIIIIIIICH!!!". |
| 599 | ----> [[http://suspendersofdisbelief.tumblr.com/post/128088599186/sourdoughs-speech-on-what-you-have-to-do-to "Rich Fulcher is one of those guys who naturally makes every line hysterical. I can get behind any character who’s catch phrase is just yelling his own name."]] |
| 600 | * Johnny from ''Tales of Worm Paranoia'' from ''WesternAnimation/WhatACartoonShow''. "YOU FILTHY CHILDREN!" |
| 601 | * Nigel Thornberry of ''WesternAnimation/TheWildThornberrys'', voiced by Tim Curry, is pure ham. |
| 602 | ** ''"Helloooooo,'' I'm ''Nigel Thornberry.''" |
| 603 | * The Whammer from ''WesternAnimation/WordGirl''. Yeah, '''''wham'''''! |
| 604 | * ''WesternAnimation/WorldOfWinx'': |
| 605 | ** Ace, the host of the reality talent show "WOW!", particularly on camera. Off-camera, he's basically [[NiceCharacterMeanActor a short-tempered prima donna.]] |
| 606 | ** Lorelei, Bloom's replacement as co-host (Long story!), is also this to a slightly lesser degree. |
| 607 | * ''WesternAnimation/XMenTheAnimatedSeries'': |
| 608 | ** Storm [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fz93UFClpo felt the need to shout loud proclamations and poetic verses while using her powers]]. "WINNND AND WATERRR, WHIIIIIRL AND RAAAAAAGE!" One of Rogue's very first lines in the series is a comment that she should ease up a little. Hell, Storm even said normal things dramatically, like once when she and Cyclops had to split up, Storm's famous parting words were "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_rj1B3l9gE I SHALL MEET YOU AT THE MONORAIL!]]" |
| 609 | ** BigBad Apocalypse has ham as ''far'' beyond mutants as they are beyond '''''you!''''' He is the ham [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYt78FWfa5M ETERNAL]]! And he's voiced by no less than John Colicos -- aka Kor, the ''first Klingon in [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Star Trek]]''. Who of course returned in [[Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine DS9]] even hammier than he was in TOS. |
| 610 | --->''I am the rocks of the eternal shore. Crash against me... and be '''broken!'''''\ |
| 611 | ''Evil mutant! You ''dare'' challenge Apocalypse '''again'''?! [[AGodAmI Blasphemer]]! YOU '''DEFILE''' MY SACRED CHAMBER!?''\ |
| 612 | ''You presume to attempt to destroy '''me''', mutant? You shall '''PAY''' for your hubris! '''RIGHT NOOOOOOOW!''''' |
| 613 | %%* Omi, Raimundo, and most of the villains from ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown'' for that matter. |
| 614 | * Mrs. Claus introduces Snow Miser in ''WesternAnimation/TheYearWithoutASantaClaus'' by saying "Here he comes, the big ham." His brother, the Heat Miser, might actually be an even bigger ham. That's a mystery but they're hammy in their own special as well. |
| 615 | * Superboy from ''WesternAnimation/{{Young Justice|2010}}'' can get surprisingly hammy when he yells. Especially in Episode 2. |
