Most Wonderful Sound / Western Animation

• Adventure Time:
  • Finn's high-pitched scream.
  • Finn's cute laugh.
  • Anytime Marceline sings.
  • Anytime Finn sings with Autotune.
• American Dad!:
  • Anytime Steve sings.
  • Anytime Seth MacFarlane sings (on this show and on Family Guy. Seriously, there's a reason why he always sings so many Frank Sinatra songs as Brian).
• At the end of some Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes, we have Safe Return, a perfect way to say "for now, we're peaceful."
  • The wooshing sound of comment-enhanced firebending.
  • The intro. “Water. Earth. Fire. Air.”
  • In the sequel series The Legend of Korra, we have the sound of Vaatu's Kamehame Hadoken. BWWAAAAAOOOOOOH!
• In Batman: The Animated Series there are many wonderful sounds, but none so wonderful as this.
  • The Joker's trademark laugh, courtesy of Mark Hamill.
  • Or Kevin Conroy's beautifully smooth voice for Batman.
• Beast Wars: The clicking noise Scorpinok makes when he moves around in beast mode.
  • The Maximals and Predacons emit more realistic clicking and whirring noises when they transform, but There's also a single instance of the classic CHI-CHA-CHO-CHU-CHOO! transformation sound that occurs when G1 Ravage transforms into his cassette mode.
• The chiming beep the Omnitrix makes when recharged in Ben 10.
• The theme song to Bob's Burgers. A light, gentle ukulele tune that perfectly sets the mood for such a quirky-yet-heartwarming show.
• ''Captain Planet and the Planeteers:
  • "Let our powers combine!" followed by;
  • "Earth, fire, wind, water, heart! Go planet!" which is then followed by;
  • "By your powers combined, I am Captain Planet!"
• Rudy's got the chalk!
• From The Dragon Prince: Aaravos' voice is quite deep and quite pleasant to listen to.
• Ed, Edd n Eddy's endless repertoire of Wacky Sound Effects deserve a mention, being known for making just about anything slightly funnier from mere presence. And while there are too many to list, the memetic sumo warcry/"SUBALUWA" sound is probably at the top of the list.
  • Edd's laugh. It's adorable.
• Fireman Sam:
  • The drum beat that kicks off the opening theme song. Whether it's the snare drum of the 1987-1994 theme or the bass drum of the 2005-2014 theme, prepare to move aside and make way.
  • Whenever you hear Jupiter's siren, you know you're in for some action.
  • The sound of Elvis' goofy laugh, as well as his electric guitar leitmotif.
• John DiMaggio has stated his favourite noise in all Futurama is the triple-pop noise made whenever Mom slaps her sons.
  • Also from Futurama, the noise of the Hypnotoad may be a hideous, machine noise... but it's also so fitting. ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!
• G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero - YO JOE!
• Godzilla: The Series has Zilla, Jr. roaring whenever a Monster of the Week throw down is about to get real, and then the sound of when his fire breath charges up.
• The Goofy holler.
• The Gravity Falls theme song. *Awesome Music, indeed!
• The hum of a Green Lantern ring's construct, virtually unchanged from the Superfriends to Green Lantern: The Animated Series and everything in-between.
• Every single sound effect from Hanna-Barbera.
• BY THE POWER OF GREYSKUUUUUUUUULLLLLLL!!
• June's adorable voice (and laugh). Hearing her sing is beautiful and really cute at the same time.
  • WAKE UP THE MASSES!
• The Kimmunicator ringtone from Kim Possible.
• Anytime Hank Hill makes his signature scream.
• Looney Tunes:
  • The slide-guitar riff at the start of the theme song, especially on the old AAP prints where it comes in after a bit of "Merrily We Roll Along".
  • Bugs Bunny's intro fanfare on some cartoons faturing him.
  • Someone's gone and done it. They've pushed him too far. The screen zooms in on him, and a dramatic bass drum roll begins. And then, the classic line is uttered:
  Bugs Bunny: "Of course you realize, this means WAR."
  • "Eh, what's up, doc?"
  • "MEEPMEEP" vroooooomm
  • Daffy's "woo-hoo, woo-hoo!" laugh.
  • "Th-th-th-That's All, Folks!"
• My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has the cheesy grin squeak, used repeatedly through the series. Fluttershy and Rarity's squeaking and squealing in general tends to be hilarious and wonderful.
  • Oddly enough, the "grin squeak" can be used in frowns as well, which can be strangely hilarious.
  • Anytime Fluttershy opens her mouth, be it to sing or talk.
    • Such as when she hums a few bars of the My Little Pony 'n Friends theme tune in "The Ticket Master".
    • Rarity and Pinkie Pie's singing voices. And Pinkie Pie's laugh.
    • Coco Pommel has an equally sweet voice.
  • The sound of Pinkie Pie's "party cannon": like a combination of party noisemakers and balloons.
  • There's also the sound Spike's fire makes, and the little inhale he does before unleashing it.
  • In the royal wedding two-parter, Queen Chrysalis's giggle.
  • Yeah, the theme song is still incredibly girly, but many fans of the show can't quite stop smiling when they hear the little harp crescendo at the beginning of theme song.
  My Little Pony, My Little Pony, aaah aaah Aaah! I used to wonder what friendship could be...

  • The remastered version (used from Lesson Zero onwards) takes it Up to Eleven. Especially that "BWOOO" noise that starts as Dashie punches through the clouds.
  • The sound of the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy approaching for the first time, just every sound it makes simply wonderful.
  • The noise Rainbow Dash makes whenever her voice cracks, such as here or here. Utterly. Freaking. Adorable.
  • Dash's Sonic Rainboom.
  • Rainbow Dash's fake snoring in "Read it and Weep".
    • Somehow even better when "Sleepless in Ponyville" reveals it's an exact replica of her actual snoring.
  • When Sweetie Belle is excited, her voice squeaks. There's just something adorable about that.

  • "Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaa... yaaay."
  • Brdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdrdr...^note Originally from Star Trek: The Original Series (the transporter console noise before the beam actually starts), the sound in "Friendship Is Magic, Part 2" when Twilight opens her eyes and they're glowing.
  • Spike's solo song in "The Times They Are a Changeling".
• "Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!"

• Recess: "Okay, guys, I've got a plan!"
• In Regular Show, anytime Mordecai, Rigby or anyone else goes "OOOOHHHHH!!!" can put a smile on anyone's face.
• Robotomy: The sawblading noise Maimy makes whenever she walks away.
• The Pickles family doorbell.
• SpongeBob SquarePants:
  • "I'M READY!"
  • Spongebob's Signature Laugh; at least to those who don't consider it annoying.
  • The squeaky sound of SpongeBob's footsteps.
  • Gary's meows are very adorable.
  • The sound of Mr. Krab's feet waddling.
  • Depending on the episode, Squidward's clarinet playing actually isn't that bad sometimes; other times it's atrocious.
  • "Are ya ready, kids?"
• Steven Universe:
  • Rose's voice, provided by the one and only Susan Egan. Taken a notch further in "We Need to Talk," where she sings.
  • Likewise for Garnet's, provided by the marvelous Estelle, and when she sings. Her low, calming, motherly voice is gorgeous.
  • Pearl's voice, provided by the lovely Deedee Magno Hall. Especially her singing voice, which is very classical, harmonious, and wouldn't be out of place in a Broadway musical or a Disney film.^note  she actually played Princess Jasmine in an official stage adaptation of Aladdin, performed at Disneyland California.
  • Blue Diamond's voice; as soft and soothing as a mother reading a bedtime story.
  • Opal doesn't appear much and only has two actual speaking lines, but they're delivered in a very warm, soulful voice, befitting a character played by Aimee Mann.
  • Any time Lapis Lazuli gives a sincere laugh or sounds happy, if only because they're so rare.
  • The sound that the gem's weapons make when they're being summoned.
  • The sound of bubbles made, or when they're sent off are both really satisfying.
  • The little "bling!" sound that plays whenever Steven gets stars in his eyes.
  • The sound Warp Pads make when they activate. Ironic, as most users of the warp pads want to suck the life of the planet, but since Rose, Steven, Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl are guardians of our planet, it still very much qualifies.
  • The sound Steven shield makes when something makes hard contact with it. *BWOOM*
  • The satisfying clank of Steven opening and closing his shield.
  • Most of the show's soundtrack qualifies, but the drums, piano, and bass that make up Alexandrite's soundtrack stand out, especially when combined with Malachite's piano and heavy drumbeats in "Super Watermelon Island".
• Thomas & Friends:
  • Thomas the Tank Engine's whistle.
  • Edward the Blue Engine's whistle.
• The ethereal, yet unmistakably feline growl/roar released by the Sword of Omens.
  Lion-O: Thunder! Thunder! THUNDER! THUNDERCATS, HOOOOOOO!
  • There's also the "Dun DUN Daaah!" of the fanfare right before he unleashes it.
• Transformers:
  • The transformation sound. CHI-CHA-CHO-CHU-CHOO!
  • Any dialogue that Peter Cullen gets to say, his voice being the Most Wonderful Sound of the series.
  • Duh duh duh duh! You've got the touch! You've got the powerrrrrr... YEAH!
  • Soundwave's voice.
    • His laugh, it's as creepy as it's awesome.
• Total Drama: Anytime Dawn speaks. Her voice is just adorable.
• "Ha ha ha HA ha! Ha ha ha HA ha! Ha ha ha HA ha! Hahahahahahahahahhahahaha!"
• What If…? (2021): Hearing the late Chadwick Boseman in the role of T'Challa is incredibly moving for fans of both the actor and the character, especially considering the first season began close to the one-year anniversary of his passing.
  T'Challa: In my culture, death is not the end. They are still with us, so long as we do not forget them.
