History NoIndoorVoice / LiveActionTV

* In ''Series/OnTheBuses'' it seems every character uses their outdoor voices all the time, especially when the family is at home. I love the series but you can get ear fatigue.

* ''Series/ThatsSoRaven'', ''Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody'', ''Series/LizzieMcGuire''... Is the Disney Channel out to deafen us?

* Anything played by Matt Berry for example ([[Series/TheITCrowd Douglas Reynholm]]), or ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkplace'''s Dr. Lucian Sanchez. "WHAT?! AM I HOLDING A CROCK OF SHIT? IS THIS HOSPITAL CALLED 'ST. CROCK OF SHIT'?"

* Anything played by Matt Berry ([[Series/TheITCrowd Douglas Reynholm]]), for example ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkplace'''s Dr. Lucian Sanchez. "WHAT?! AM I HOLDING A CROCK OF SHIT? IS THIS HOSPITAL CALLED 'ST. CROCK OF SHIT'?"

* Anything played by Matt Berry ([[Series/TheITCrowd Douglas Reynholm]]). ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkplace'', Dr. Lucian Sanchez. "WHAT?! AM I HOLDING A CROCK OF SHIT? IS THIS HOSPITAL CALLED 'ST. CROCK OF SHIT'?"

* ''Series/SaturdayNightLive''
** Chris Farley.

** Jon Lovitz's character MASTER THESPIAN!!
** One of Will Ferrell's recurring characters on was Jacob Silge, a correspondent on Weekend Update who suffered from "Voice Immodulation Syndrome", which caused him to speak in a uniformly loud voice.
** Inverted for laughs with the character "Man Without a Shout" played by JohnGoodman. A [[ShowWithinAShow fake television series]] where the main character feels so guilty of killing his friends by triggering an avalanche that he is incapable of anything higher than a subdued murmur. He constantly gets placed in situations where he is ''required'' to scream and fails to do so.

* Played for laughs on ''Series/ChappellesShow'', when Dave does his "Samuel Jackson Beer" sketch. He spends the entirety of it pretending to be Jackson and shouting his lines at people, which he acknowledges that he does.
-->'''Consumer:''' Could you stop yelling at me, please?\\
'''Chappelle:''' NO, I CAN'T STOP YELLING, 'CAUSE THAT'S HOW I TALK! AIN'T YOU NEVER SEEN MY MOVIES? ''DEEP BLUE SEA''? THEY ATE ME! A F*** ING SHARK ATE ME! ''JURASSIC PARK''?

* Olaf the Troll on ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'', to the extent that his dialogue is ''always'' written in CapsLock.

* Dustin Hoffman in the TV movie version of ''Theatre/DeathOfASalesman''. He starts at about 7 or 8, cranks it up to 11 in the first five minutes and then never backs down a peg. It makes the whole play Dustin Hoffman SHOUTING AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS! YOU CAN'T EAT THE ORANGE AND THROW THE PEEL AWAY!!!! A MAN IS NOT A PIECE OF FRUIT!!!! It gets tiring.

** Inverted for laughs with the character "Man Without a Shout" played by JohnGoodman. A [[ShowWithinAShow fake television series]] where the main character feels so guilty of killing his friends by triggering an avalanche that he is incapable of anything higher than a hushed whisper. He constantly gets placed in situations where he is ''required'' to scream and fails to do so.

* Rich Fields, one of the announcers on ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'', is probably best known for his over-the-top "[[MemeticMutation IT'S A BRAND NEW CAAAAHHHH!]]"

--->'''David:''' ... With me now is Mr. Ken Dove, the most interesting man in Dotking. Mr. Dove, I do believe you're interested in shouting.\\

** When longtime announcer Rod Roddy fell ill in the early 2000s, Paul Boland (formerly of the 1998 revival of ''MatchGame'') did a week of guest announcing. The staff asked him to tone down his delivery; he refused, and never set foot in studio 33 again.

* ''Series/GameOfThrones'': The Greatjon shouts most of his dialogue.
* Mr. Conklin on ''Series/OurMissBrooks'' can be a real loudmouth.
* ''Series/HappyDays'': Tom Bosley's character of Howard Cunningham became this after the show began taping in front of a live, studio audience in 1975. Comparably quiet and somewhat distant in the early years, he became much more, well, loud in the later seasons.
* ''Series/TriggerHappyTV'' has the giant cellphone man who answers his ridiculously large phone and shouts into it as loud as possible, and does it in traditionally quiet places, such as a restaurant, or a movie theater, or an acapella concert, or even a book store.
* Peter Boyd in ''Series/WakingTheDead'' is surely one of the most obnoxious examples of the trope. Constant shouting is supposed to reinforce how mentally edgy the character is -- if the police harassment, property damage and general violence haven't tipped you off already. Might be a case of ChewingTheScenery gone badly wrong... especially in later episodes, when every other regular character follows suit. The fact that they're always interrupting each other makes it even more frustrating.

* Creator/{{CBBC}} seems to have "must be audible from overhead aeroplanes" as a requirement for its presenters.
* Charlie in ''Series/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia''.
* Timmy Mallet made a career out of this trope, in his case to increase his image of wackiness. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it just deeply irritated everyone who saw him. This was illustrated rather nicely in an episode of ''{{Room 101}}'' where one prop was a "scale of children's TV presenters" with the zones "Loud", "Very Loud", "Obnoxious", and finally "Timmy Mallet".
* ''Series/DoctorWho''
** The Doctor often regenerates with the volume button stuck on eleven.
*** Creator/TomBaker, who played the Fourth Doctor, is well-known for this. Off-screen he's even [[LargeHam hammier]].
*** The Eighth Doctor (Creator/PaulMcGann) also suffered from this quite badly in his TV Movie, though he has got over it in the [[RadioDrama audio dramas]] to the point he has actually been described as [[InvertedTrope soft-spoken]].
--->'''Eighth Doctor:''' [[spoiler:The Master]] wants to take all my remaining lives... SO THAT HE WILL LIVE AND I WILL '''''DIE!'''''
*** The Sixth Doctor (Creator/ColinBaker) was possibly the shoutiest of the lot, to the point that Peri sometimes had to cover her ears during their seemingly endless arguments in the TARDIS.
*** The Tenth Doctor (Creator/DavidTennant) ''does'' have an indoor voice, but he seems to forget this a lot. Particularily when he's excited, his standard voice setting seems to be [[LargeHam loud]] and [[MotorMouth fast]].
--->'''Martha:''' Trust me, just nod when he stops for breath.
*** And then [[Recap/DoctorWhoS23E2Mindwarp comes the day]] when the Doctor, the protagonist of one of the [[WorldOfHam hammiest works of fiction in existence]], [[HamToHamCombat goes up against]] possibly THE [[LargeHam largest ham]] in existence, '''[[SelfDemonstrating/BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED!!]]'''. You can even taste the amount of ham created by the [[ChewingTheScenery shouting]] between them.
** When [[OmnicidalManiac Davros]] removed the genes for emotions and conscience from the Daleks, he must have also removed the ones enabling them to speak quietly. As a consequence, the Daleks, even in casual conversation, scream every word out.
-->'''The Doctor:''' Sealed inside your casing. Not feeling anything... ever. From birth to death, locked inside a cold metal cage. Completely alone. And that explains your voice! [[AndIMustScream No wonder you scream.]]
** Azal, in the Third Doctor serial "The Daemons". For once, the effect is ''awesome''. Partly justified by the fact that he's a 30-ft tall megalomaniac.
** The Captain from "The Pirate Planet". Even the Doctor called him on that:
-->'''The Doctor:''' What do you want? You don't want to take over the universe, do you? No... you wouldn't know what to do with it, beyond shout at it.

* As ''Entertainment Weekly'' put it whilst discussing ''[[Literature/LordOfTheFlies Kid Nation]]'', "MY NAME IS JONATHAN KARSH! I YELL LOUDER THAN ANY OTHER HOST IN REALITY SHOW HISTORY!"
* Bob Fossil in ''Series/TheMightyBoosh'' yells (and yells nonsense) at least 90% of the time he's onscreen (of the remaining screen time, 8% is spent dancing).
* The ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' boys have no concept of this. Perhaps they learned it from their father?
* ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus''
** The Gumbies. "MY BRAIN HURTS!"
** The army instructor in 'The Meaning of Life'. "DON'T STAND THERE GAWPIN'! LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN THE HAND O' GOD BEFORE!"
** As well as this instance from the skit "Interesting People":
-->'''David:''' ... With me now is Mr. Ken Dove, the most interesting man in Dotking. Mr. Dove, I do believe you're interested in shouting.\\
'''Mr. Dove:''' YEAH THAT'S RIGHT DAVID! I'M VERY INTERESTED IN SHOUTING ALRIGHT! I THINK SHOUTING IS WONDERFUL!\\
'''David:''' What does your wife think about it?\\
'''Mrs. Dove:''' I AGREE WITH HIM!\\
'''Mr. Dove:''' [[BigShutUp SHUT]] [[HypocriticalHumour UP!]]
** '''NOBODY''' EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!

* Anything played by Matt Berry ([[Series/TheITCrowd Douglas Reynholm]]). ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkplace'', Dr. Lucian Sanchez. "WHAT?! AM I HOLDING A CROCK OF SHIT? IS THIS HOSPITAL CALLED 'ST. CROCK OF SHIT'?"
* FBI Agent Gordon Cole -- played by Creator/DavidLynch himself -- in ''Series/TwinPeaks'' is nearly deaf and yells nearly every line of dialogue. Combined with his {{Cloudcuckoolander}} personality, this makes for one odd character.
* Regis freakin' Philbin, especially on ''Series/WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire''
* ''Series/TheYoungOnes'': Rick and Vyvyan shout constantly at the top of their lungs. The latter gets bonus points for already possessing the ''vox humana'' equivalent of broken glass in a wood chipper.

* ''Series/SaturdayNightLive''
** Chris Farley
** [[Creator/DanaCarvey "HELLO, I'M ROBIN LEACH! I'M YELLING! I DON'T KNOW WHY!"]]
** One of Will Ferrell's recurring characters on was Jacob Silge, a correspondent on Weekend Update who suffered from "Voice Immodulation Syndrome", which caused him to speak in a uniformly loud voice.
** Inverted for laughs with the character "Man Without a Shout" played by JohnGoodman. A [[ShowWithinAShow fake television series]] where the main character feels so guilty of killing his friends by triggering an avalanche that he is incapable of anything higher than a hushed whisper. He constantly gets placed in situations where he is ''required'' to scream and fails to do so.

* In one episode of ''Series/RedDwarf'', The Cat brought a megaphone to a movie, [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} for some reason]]:
-->'''The Cat:''' '''''[+SHUT UP!!!+]'''''\\
'''Lister:''' Will you stop doing that?\\
'''The Cat:''' '''''[+I'M TRYING TO WATCH THE FILM!!!+]'''''\\
'''Lister:''' I'm only eating!\\
'''The Cat:''' ''(puts down megaphone)'' [[JabbaTableManners No, eating is when the food goes in your mouth!]]
** Rimmer turns into this if you push him to far.
-->'''Rimmer:''' Now, I don't want to be a bore about this but, '''''[+THE APPEAL!!!+]'''''\\
* Played for laughs with the Crazy Warehouse Guy on ''Series/TheChasersWarOnEverything''.
* Played for laughs on ''Series/ChappellesShow'', when Dave does his "Samuel Jackson Beer" sketch. He spends the entirety of it pretending to be Jackson and shouting his lines at people, which he acknowledges that he does.
-->'''Consumer:''' Could you stop yelling at me, please?\\
'''Chappelle:''' NO, I CAN'T STOP YELLING, 'CAUSE THAT'S HOW I TALK! AIN'T YOU NEVER SEEN MY MOVIES? ''DEEP BLUE SEA''? THEY ATE ME! A F*** ING SHARK ATE ME! ''JURASSIC PARK''?
* Ty Pennington, on ''Series/ExtremeMakeoverHomeEdition''. Not only does the man usually forget he has an indoor voice, but the producers decided to give him a ''loud-hailer'', like police use in crowd control, as a gimmick.
* ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'':
** One-shot character Carl Lorthner, played by Creator/AndySamberg. He was made a head park ranger specifically because he was too loud and insufferable in an office job. He's always yelling, much to the annoyance of the staff and doesn't lower his voice when others try to shush him.
--->'''"LESLIE, HAVE YOU SEEN ''Film/{{AVATAR}}''? I NEVER SAW ''AVATAR''. I WANTED TO READ THE BOOK FIRST, BUT THEN I REALIZED THERE'S NO BOOK VERSION OF ''AVATAR''."'''
** Craig Middlebrooks (Billy Eichner), who was brought into the Pawnee parks department following the town's merger with neighboring Eagleton in season 6, speaks loudly as part of his generally overdramatic tendencies. Though this was scaled back somewhat in season 7.
* ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers'' has Jason Lee Scott, the first Red Ranger. He was pretty loud most of the time out of suit, but morphed, he shouted ''everything''. The man was living evidence of why this trope works [[NarmCharm best]] mixed 1:1 with CaptainObvious.
--> AH, AFTER TEN THOUSAND YEARS I'M FREE! IT'S TIME TO CONQUER EARTH!
* ''Mad Money'' host Jim Cramer.
* Jack [=McCoy=] on ''Franchise/LawAndOrder'', even during his version of "normal" speech. In the courtroom, he shouts for real. In the office, it's not always exactly shouting, but his normal speech is much more aggressive and loud than even the cops he works with; he sort of stays in "badgering" mode. Happens more in the later seasons before he's the D.A. This is in stark contrast to his predecessor, Ben Stone, who was more soft-spoken (sometimes to the point of barely being audible).
** [[DaChief Captain Cragen]] for most of his original run on the show. His actor started complaining about how many of his scenes just involved him yelling at his detectives, so his role was expanded in Season 3...right before ExecutiveMeddling forced the character to be PutOnABus. (Cragen would return for ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'', where he's been much more mellow.)

* Jeremy Brett's performance as Series/SherlockHolmes features ample amounts of this trope; Holmes is prone of shifting from near-whisper to shouting his lungs out at a moment's notice, sometimes accompanied by complete ignorance of furniture or other obstacles as he skips to meet his newest client, or Watson with some new clue at hand.
* G4 TV's show ''That's Tough'' -- because you know things are tough when EVERY WORD OF THE NARRATOR IS DELIVERED LIKE A JERRY BRUCKHEIMER MOVIE TRAILER FILLED WITH EXPLOSIONS! ''THAT'S TOUGH!!!''
* ''Series/XPlay'' comedy character CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY CRAAAAAAZY ADAM!!!
* Ms. Wolowitz in ''Series/TheBigBangTheory''. Whenever heard, she is always yelling. Usually justified since she's usually heard calling to Howard from the bottom of the stairs and various rooms of their rather big house. While he's on the International Space Station, Howard jokes that that she doesn't need to yell down the phone, because he can hear her even in space! On ''one'' occasion, she speaks a single line in a normal tone of voice.
* In ''Series/OnTheBuses'' it seems every character uses their outdoor voices all the time, especially when the family is at home. I love the series but you can get ear fatigue.

* ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' has a string of Red Rangers who fell into this category starting from the early 2000s: Yousuke in ''[[Series/NinpuuSentaiHurricaneger Hurricanger]]'', Ryoga in ''[[Series/BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger Abaranger]]'', Ban in ''[[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger Dekaranger]]'', Kai in ''[[Series/MahouSentaiMagiranger Magiranger]]'', Jan in ''[[Series/JukenSentaiGekiranger Gekiranger]]'', and Sousuke in ''Go-Onger''. Many of these can also be classified as {{Keet}}s as well. ''[[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Gokaiger]]'' avoided this trope for Gokai Red, but boy howdy did they ever bring it back for [[SixthRanger Gokai Silver]].
** ''[[Series/ZyudenSentaiKyoryuger Kyoryuger's]]'' Kyoryu Red Daigo may be the shoutiest of them all.
* The one rule of ''Series/NationalBingoNight'': you need a loud commissioner that can pull off a good "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~ BINGO!". Preferably Indian.
* Sometimes, this came from the announcer's booth on ''Series/ThePriceIsRight''.
** When longtime announcer Rod Roddy fell ill in the early 2000s, Paul Boland (formerly of the 1998 revival of ''MatchGame'') did a week of guest announcing. The staff asked him to tone down his delivery; he refused, and never set foot in studio 33 again.
** Rod's successor, Rich Fields, started out with a reasonably pleasant voice, but quickly became much, ''much'' louder (not to mention increasingly high-pitched and shrill). His delivery of "Here it CAAAAAHMS! From the Bob Barker studio…" and "A NEW CAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!" in particular received MemeticMutation. And then there are the contestants...
* ''Series/WheelOfFortune'' is sometimes known for having very loud contestants. Host Pat Sajak likes to lampshade this by asking said contestants to "speak up".
* Skip Lackey when he hosted ''Series/ThinkFast''.

* Richard Karn during his hosting tenure on ''Series/FamilyFeud''. He would ''always'' yell "I'M DOUBLING/TRIPLING THE POINTS!!" at the start of the Double and Triple rounds, "TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!" during Fast Money, and in general displayed an utter lack of indoor voice.
* One of Chyna's teachers in the ''Series/AntFarm'' episode "sciANTs fair". Actually part of the plot, it turns out.

* ''Series/GhostAdventures''' Zak Bagans has a voice that may be capable of literally waking up the dead.
* Joe of ''Series/ImpracticalJokers'' does this in the very first White Castle challenge, screaming in the customer's face.
* Joe from Season 14 of ''Series/BigBrother US'' shouts a ''lot'' in the diary room. This is lampshaded hilariously by his wife and children, first when his wife STARTS FAKE SHOUTING, and when all his children tells him to STOP SHOUTING!
%% ** Dan Gheesling as well as Peter Brown from the Canadian version also shout a lot in the diary room.
* Ralph Kramden of ''Series/TheHoneymooners'' does this a lot, usually when he [[HairTriggerTemper gets short-tempered enough, which happens a lot]].
* The elderly, drunken and lecherous Father Jack Hackett from ''Series/FatherTed'' never speaks at normal volume. Ever.
* A memorable episode of ''Series/AmericasFunniestHomeVideos'' had as one of its three finalists "Boy Screams ABC's": [[NoPunctuationPeriod "My name's Carlos Jones I'm gonna do my ABC's AEH! BEH! CEH! DEH!..."]]
* On ''Series/SesameStreet'' The wild-haired radio DJ, named Bushman Bill (Who introduces Didi O'Dey and the Dew-Drops in ''Be My D'') talks very loud and over-excited. At least the song he is playing is kind of nice and catchy.
* ''Series/JamAndJerusalem'' has Tim Brewer, a local politician with volume issues.
* Lieutenant Atkins of ''Series/AngieTribeca'' speaks like this almost all the time, especially when he's yelling at his officers to get them to [[HypocriticalHumor stop yelling at each other.]]

* The 90s Australian sketch show ''Full Frontal'' made a running gag throughout an episode of "Inappropriate Jobs for Loud People", including a doctor heard from the waiting room telling a patient they had genital warts.
** The show also did a sketch called "What if Furniture Salesmen Took Their Medication", which inverted a popular advertising trope by having a man calmly detail some small but sensible price reductions and told viewers that while they were certainly under no obligation to do so, it would be nice if they dropped by.
* Olaf the Troll on ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'', to the extent that his dialogue is ''always'' written in CapsLock.
-->'''Olaf:''' HAHAHA! PUNY RECEPTACLE! *smashes garbage bin for no reason*
* ''Series/TheWestWing'' - "I'M MARION COTESWORTH-HAYE"

* In one episode of ''Series/RedDwarf'', The Cat [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments brought a megaphone to a movie]], [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} for some reason]]:

* On ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'':
** One-shot character Carl Lorthner, played by Creator/AndySamberg. He was made a head park ranger specifically because he was too loud and insufferable in an office job. He's always yelling, much to the annoyance of the staff.
-->'''"LESLIE, HAVE YOU SEEN ''Film/{{AVATAR}}''? I NEVER SAW ''AVATAR''. I WANTED TO READ THE BOOK FIRST, BUT THEN I REALIZED THERE'S NO BOOK VERSION OF ''AVATAR''."'''

** Ahem. "AH, AFTER TEN THOUSAND YEARS I'M FREE! IT'S TIME TO CONQUER EARTH!"

* Ms. Wolowitz in ''Series/TheBigBangTheory''. Bernadette will occasionally do this as well.

** Dan Gheesling as well as Peter Brown from the Canadian version also shout a lot in the diary room.

* Robin from the later seasons of ''Series/HowIMetYourMother'' keeps yelling at her co-worker, [[SitcomArchNemesis Patrice]] despite that Patrice is a nice girl.

* On ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'', Andy Samberg's head park ranger is pretty much always yelling, much to the annoyance of the staff.

** Craig Middlebrooks (Billy Eichner), who was brought into the Pawnee parks department following the town's merger with neighboring Eagleton in season 6, also demonstrates this as part of his generally overdramatic tendencies. Though this was scaled back somewhat in season 7.

* In one episode of ''Series/RedDwarf'', The Cat [[CrowningMomentOfFunny brought a megaphone to a movie]], [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} for some reason]]:
